vectorio builds on m4 express feather
Concrete shapes are composed into a VectorShape which is put into a displayio Group for display.
VectorShape provides transpose and x/y positioning for shape implementations.
Included Shapes:
* Circle
- A radius; Circle is positioned at its axis in the VectorShape.
- You can freely modify the radius to grow and shrink the circle in-place.
* Polygon
- An ordered list of points.
- Beteween each successive point an edge is inferred. A final edge closing the shape is inferred between the last
point and the first point.
- You can modify the points in a Polygon. The points' coordinate system is relative to (0, 0) so if you'd like a
top-center justified 10x20 rectangle you can do points [(-5, 0), (5, 0), (5, 20), (0, 20)] and your VectorShape
x and y properties will position the rectangle relative to its top center point
* Rectangle
A width and a height.
This adds initial support for an AES module named aesio. This
implementation supports only a subset of AES modes, namely
ECB, CBC, and CTR modes.
Example usage:
```
>>> import aesio
>>>
>>> key = b'Sixteen byte key'
>>> cipher = aesio.AES(key, aesio.MODE_ECB)
>>> output = bytearray(16)
>>> cipher.encrypt_into(b'Circuit Python!!', output)
>>> output
bytearray(b'E\x14\x85\x18\x9a\x9c\r\x95>\xa7kV\xa2`\x8b\n')
>>>
```
This key is 16-bytes, so it uses AES128. If your key is 24- or 32-
bytes long, it will switch to AES192 or AES256 respectively.
This has been tested with many of the official NIST test vectors,
such as those used in `pycryptodome` at
39626a5b01/lib/Crypto/SelfTest/Cipher/test_vectors/AES
CTR has not been tested as NIST does not provide test vectors for it.

Constant expression like "2 ** 3" will now be folded, and the special form
"X = const(2 ** 3)" will now compile because the argument to the const is
now a constant.
Fixes issue #5865.
This allows user code that inherits from uio.IOBase to return an errno
error code from the user readinto/write function, by returning a negative
value. Eg returning -123 means an errno of 123. This is already how the
custom ioctl works.
This change is made for two reasons:
1. A 3rd-party library (eg berkeley-db-1.xx, axtls) may use the system
provided errno for certain errors, and yet MicroPython stream objects
that it calls will be using the internal mp_stream_errno. So if the
library returns an error it is not known whether the corresponding errno
code is stored in the system errno or mp_stream_errno. Using the system
errno in all cases (eg in the mp_stream_posix_XXX wrappers) fixes this
ambiguity.
2. For systems that have threading the system-provided errno should always
be used because the errno value is thread-local.
For systems that do not have an errno, the new lib/embed/__errno.c file is
provided.
Note: the uncrustify configuration is explicitly set to 'add' instead of
'force' in order not to alter the comments which use extra spaces after //
as a means of indenting text for clarity.
Error string compression is not deterministic in certain cases: it depends
on the Python version (whether dicts are ordered by default or not) and
probably also the order files are passed to this script, leading to a
difference in which words are included in the top 128 most common.
The changes in this commit use OrderedDict to keep parsed lines in a known
order, and, when computing how many bytes are saved by a given word, it
uses the word itself to break ties (which would otherwise be "random").
For combinations of certain versions of glibc and gcc the definition of
fpclassify always takes float as argument instead of adapting itself to
float/double/long double as required by the C99 standard. At the time of
writing this happens for instance for glibc 2.27 with gcc 7.5.0 when
compiled with -Os and glibc 3.0.7 with gcc 9.3.0. When calling fpclassify
with double as argument, as in objint.c, this results in an implicit
narrowing conversion which is not really correct plus results in a warning
when compiled with -Wfloat-conversion. So fix this by spelling out the
logic manually.
Initially some of these were found building the unix coverage variant on
MacOS because that build uses clang and has -Wdouble-promotion enabled, and
clang performs more vigorous promotion checks than gcc. Additionally the
codebase has been compiled with clang and msvc (the latter with warning
level 3), and with MICROPY_FLOAT_IMPL_FLOAT to find the rest of the
conversions.
Fixes are implemented either as explicit casts, or by using the correct
type, or by using one of the utility functions to handle floating point
casting; these have been moved from nativeglue.c to the public API.
This gets all the purely internal references. Some uses of
protomatter/Protomatter/PROTOMATTER remain, as they are references
to symbols in the Protomatter C library itself.
I originally believed that there would be a wrapper library around it,
like with _pixelbuf; but this proves not to be the case, as there's
too little for the library to do.
This commit provides a typedef for mp_rom_error_text_t, and a macro define
for MP_COMPRESSED_ROM_TEXT, when MICROPY_ROM_TEXT_COMPRESSION is disabled.
This simplifies the configuration (it no longer has a special case for
MICROPY_ENABLE_DYNRUNTIME) and makes it work for other cases that don't use
compression (eg examples/embedding). This commit also ensures
MICROPY_ROM_TEXT_COMPRESSION is defined during qstr processing.
Now that error string compression is supported it's more important to have
consistent error string formatting (eg all lowercase English words,
consistent contractions). This commit cleans up some of the strings to
make them more consistent.
Because the atomic section starts after checking whether the scheduler
state is pending, it's possible it can become a different state by the time
the atomic section starts.
This is especially likely on ports where MICROPY_BEGIN_ATOMIC_SECTION is
implemented with a mutex (i.e. it might block), but the race exists
regardless, i.e. if a context switch occurs between those two lines.
TimeoutError was added back in 077812b2ab for
the cc3200 port. In f522849a4d the cc3200
port enabled use of it in the socket module aliased to socket.timeout. So
it was never added to the builtins. Then it was replaced by
OSError(ETIMEDOUT) in 047af9b10b.
The esp32 port enables this exception, since the very beginning of that
port, but it could never be accessed because it's not in builtins.
It's being removed: 1) to not encourage its use; 2) because there are a lot
of other OSError subclasses which are not defined at all, and having
TimeoutError is a bit inconsistent.
Note that ports can add anything to the builtins via MICROPY_PORT_BUILTINS.
And they can also define their own exceptions using the
MP_DEFINE_EXCEPTION() macro.
In this part of the code there is no way to get the ** operator, so no need
to check for it.
This commit also adds tests for this, and other related, invalid const
operations.
The decompression of error-strings is only done if the string is accessed
via printing or via er.args. Tests are added for this feature to ensure
the decompression works.
The idea here is that there's a moderate amount of ROM used up by exception
text. Obviously we try to keep the messages short, and the code can enable
terse errors, but it still adds up. Listed below is the total string data
size for various ports:
bare-arm 2860
minimal 2876
stm32 8926 (PYBV11)
cc3200 3751
esp32 5721
This commit implements compression of these strings. It takes advantage of
the fact that these strings are all 7-bit ascii and extracts the top 128
frequently used words from the messages and stores them packed (dropping
their null-terminator), then uses (0x80 | index) inside strings to refer to
these common words. Spaces are automatically added around words, saving
more bytes. This happens transparently in the build process, mirroring the
steps that are used to generate the QSTR data. The MP_COMPRESSED_ROM_TEXT
macro wraps any literal string that should compressed, and it's
automatically decompressed in mp_decompress_rom_string.
There are many schemes that could be used for the compression, and some are
included in py/makecompresseddata.py for reference (space, Huffman, ngram,
common word). Results showed that the common-word compression gets better
results. This is before counting the increased cost of the Huffman
decoder. This might be slightly counter-intuitive, but this data is
extremely repetitive at a word-level, and the byte-level entropy coder
can't quite exploit that as efficiently. Ideally one would combine both
approaches, but for now the common-word approach is the one that is used.
For additional comparison, the size of the raw data compressed with gzip
and zlib is calculated, as a sort of proxy for a lower entropy bound. With
this scheme we come within 15% on stm32, and 30% on bare-arm (i.e. we use
x% more bytes than the data compressed with gzip -- not counting the code
overhead of a decoder, and how this would be hypothetically implemented).
The feature is disabled by default and can be enabled by setting
MICROPY_ROM_TEXT_COMPRESSION at the Makefile-level.
Instead of compiler-level if-logic. This is necessary to know what error
strings are included in the build at the preprocessor stage, so that string
compression can be implemented.
These were found by buiding the unix coverage variant on macOS (so clang
compiler). Mostly, these are fixing implicit cast of float/double to
mp_float_t which is one of those two and one mp_int_t to size_t fix for
good measure.
Implements Task and TaskQueue classes in C, using a pairing-heap data
structure. Using this reduces RAM use of each Task, and improves overall
performance of the uasyncio scheduler.
To enable lazy loading of submodules (among other things), which is very
useful for MicroPython libraries that want to have optional subcomponents.
Disabled explicitly on minimal ports.
Formerly, if you wrote
SPI.frequency = 0
you would get the sightly erroneous error message
AttributeError: 'SPI' object has no attribute 'frequency'
In this case, a better message would read
AttributeError: 'SPI' object cannot assign attribute 'frequency'
This new message will both be used in the case where the attribute doesn't
exist at all (and the object has no dynamic attributes; most instances of
built in types behave this way), or if the attribute exists but is
read-only.
This commit adds micropython.heap_locked() which returns the current
lock-depth of the heap, and can be used by Python code to check if the heap
is locked or not. This new function is configured via
MICROPY_PY_MICROPYTHON_HEAP_LOCKED and is disabled by default.
This commit also changes the return value of micropython.heap_unlock() so
it returns the current lock-depth as well.
This eliminates the need for the sizeof regex fixup by rearranging things a
bit. All other bitfields already use the parentheses around expressions
with sizeof, so one case is fixed by following this convention.
VM_MAX_STATE_ON_STACK is the only remaining problem and it can be worked
around by changing the order of the operands.
The double-% was added in 11de8399fe (Jun
2014) when such errors were formatted with printf. But then
55830dd9bf (Dec 2018) changed
mp_obj_new_exception_msg() to not format the message, as discussed
in #3004. So such error strings are no longer formatted and a % is just
that.
This should reclaim *most* code space added to handle f-strings.
However, there may be some small code growth as parse_string_literal
takes a new parameter (which will always be 0, so hopefully the optimizer
eliminates it)
This implements (most of) the PEP-498 spec for f-strings, with two
exceptions:
- raw f-strings (`fr` or `rf` prefixes) raise `NotImplementedError`
- one special corner case does not function as specified in the PEP
(more on that in a moment)
This is implemented in the core as a syntax translation, brute-forcing
all f-strings to run through `String.format`. For example, the statement
`x='world'; print(f'hello {x}')` gets translated *at a syntax level*
(injected into the lexer) to `x='world'; print('hello {}'.format(x))`.
While this may lead to weird column results in tracebacks, it seemed
like the fastest, most efficient, and *likely* most RAM-friendly option,
despite being implemented under the hood with a completely separate
`vstr_t`.
Since [string concatenation of adjacent literals is implemented in the
lexer](534b7c368d),
two side effects emerge:
- All strings with at least one f-string portion are concatenated into a
single literal which *must* be run through `String.format()` wholesale,
and:
- Concatenation of a raw string with interpolation characters with an
f-string will cause `IndexError`/`KeyError`, which is both different
from CPython *and* different from the corner case mentioned in the PEP
(which gave an example of the following:)
```python
x = 10
y = 'hi'
assert ('a' 'b' f'{x}' '{c}' f'str<{y:^4}>' 'd' 'e') == 'ab10{c}str< hi >de'
```
The above-linked commit detailed a pretty solid case for leaving string
concatenation in the lexer rather than putting it in the parser, and
undoing that decision would likely be disproportionately costly on
resources for the sake of a probably-low-impact corner case. An
alternative to become complaint with this corner case of the PEP would
be to revert to string concatenation in the parser *only when an
f-string is part of concatenation*, though I've done no investigation on
the difficulty or costs of doing this.
A decent set of tests is included. I've manually tested this on the
`unix` port on Linux and on a Feather M4 Express (`atmel-samd`) and
things seem sane.
Before this, such names would instead cause an assertion error inside
qstr_from_strn.
A simple reproducer is a python source file containing the letter "a"
repeated 256 times
This string is recognised by uncrustify, to disable formatting in the
region marked by these comments. This is necessary in the qstrdef*.h files
to prevent modification of the strings within the Q(...). In other places
it is used to prevent excessive reformatting that would make the code less
readable.
This only fixes the `import` portion. It doesn't actually change
reference behavior because modules within a package could already
be referenced through the parent package even though an error should
have been thrown.
And rename it to mp_obj_cast_to_native_base() to indicate this. This
allows users of this function to easily support native and native-subclass
objects in the same way (by just passing the object through this function).
Since commit 3aab54bf43 this piece of code is
no longer needed because the top-level function mp_obj_equal_not_equal()
now handles the case of user types, and will never call tuple's binary_op
function with MP_BINARY_OP_EQUAL and a non-tuple on the RHS.
Follow up to recent commit ad7213d3c3, the
name "varg2" is misleading, vlist describes better that the argument is a
va_list. This name also matches CircuitPython, which already has such
helper functions.
This provides a more consistent C-level API to raise exceptions, ie moving
away from nlr_raise towards mp_raise_XXX. It also reduces code size by a
small amount on some ports.
Both bool and namedtuple will check against other types for equality; int,
float and complex for bool, and tuple for namedtuple. So to make them work
after the recent commit 3aab54bf43 they would
need MP_TYPE_FLAG_NEEDS_FULL_EQ_TEST set. But that makes all bool and
namedtuple equality checks less efficient because mp_obj_equal_not_equal()
could no longer short-cut x==x, and would need to try __ne__. To improve
this, this commit splits the MP_TYPE_FLAG_NEEDS_FULL_EQ_TEST flags into 3
separate flags to give types more fine-grained control over how their
equality behaves. These new flags are then used to fix bool and namedtuple
equality.
Fixes issue #5615 and #5620.
This is a more logical place to clear the KeyboardInterrupt traceback,
right before it is set as a pending exception. The clearing is also
optimised from a function call to a simple store of NULL.
Functions like mp_keyboard_interrupt() may need to be called from an IRQ
handler and may need to be in a special memory section, so provide a
generic wrapping macro for a port to do this. The macro name is chosen to
be MICROPY_WRAP_<function name in uppercase> so that (in the future with
more wrappers) each function could potentially be handled separately.
This function is tightly coupled to the state and behaviour of the
scheduler, and is a core part of the runtime: to schedule a pending
exception. So move it there.
Previous behaviour is when this argument is set to "true", in which case
the function will raise any pending exception. Setting it to "false" will
cancel any pending exception.
A 'return' statement on module/class level is not correct Python, but
nothing terribly bad happens when it's allowed. So remove the check unless
MICROPY_CPYTHON_COMPAT is on.
This is similar to MicroPython's treatment of 'import *' in functions
(except 'return' has unsurprising behavior if it's allowed).
This commit implements a more complete replication of CPython's behaviour
for equality and inequality testing of objects. This addresses the issues
discussed in #5382 and a few other inconsistencies. Improvements over the
old code include:
- Support for returning non-boolean results from comparisons (as used by
numpy and others).
- Support for non-reflexive equality tests.
- Preferential use of __ne__ methods and MP_BINARY_OP_NOT_EQUAL binary
operators for inequality tests, when available.
- Fallback to op2 == op1 or op2 != op1 when op1 does not implement the
(in)equality operators.
The scheme here makes use of a new flag, MP_TYPE_FLAG_NEEDS_FULL_EQ_TEST,
in the flags word of mp_obj_type_t to indicate if various shortcuts can or
cannot be used when performing equality and inequality tests. Currently
four built-in classes have the flag set: float and complex are
non-reflexive (since nan != nan) while bytearray and frozenszet instances
can equal other builtin class instances (bytes and set respectively). The
flag is also set for any new class defined by the user.
This commit also includes a more comprehensive set of tests for the
behaviour of (in)equality operators implemented in special methods.
This modifies the signature of mp_thread_set_state() to use
mp_state_thread_t* instead of void*. This matches the return type of
mp_thread_get_state(), which returns the same value.
`struct _mp_state_thread_t;` had to be moved before
`#include <mpthreadport.h>` since the stm32 port uses it in its
mpthreadport.h file.
The loop searches backwards for a target, but doesn't stop after finding
the first result, meaning that it'll always end up at the outermost
exception handler.
This previously made the native emitter incompatible with the bytecode
emitter, and mp_resume (and subsequently mp_obj_generator_resume) expects
the bytecode emitter behavior (i.e. throw==NULL).
Commit d96cfd13e3 introduced a regression in
testing for bool objects, that such objects were in some cases no longer
recognised and bools, eg when using mp_obj_is_type(o, &mp_type_bool), or
mp_obj_is_integer(o).
This commit fixes that problem by adding mp_obj_is_bool(o). Builds with
MICROPY_OBJ_IMMEDIATE_OBJS enabled check if the object is any of the const
True or False objects. Builds without it use the old method of ->type
checking, which compiles to smaller code (compared with the former
mentioned method).
Fixes#5538.
When threads and the GIL are enabled, then the qstr mutex is not needed.
The qstr_mutex field is never used in this case because of:
#if MICROPY_PY_THREAD && !MICROPY_PY_THREAD_GIL
#define QSTR_ENTER() mp_thread_mutex_lock(&MP_STATE_VM(qstr_mutex), 1)
#define QSTR_EXIT() mp_thread_mutex_unlock(&MP_STATE_VM(qstr_mutex))
#else
#define QSTR_ENTER()
#define QSTR_EXIT()
#endif
So, we can completely remove qstr_mutex everywhere when MICROPY_PY_THREAD
&& !MICROPY_PY_THREAD_GIL.
When threads and the GIL are enabled, then the GC mutex is not needed. The
gc_mutex field is never used in this case because of:
#if MICROPY_PY_THREAD && !MICROPY_PY_THREAD_GIL
#define GC_ENTER() mp_thread_mutex_lock(&MP_STATE_MEM(gc_mutex), 1)
#define GC_EXIT() mp_thread_mutex_unlock(&MP_STATE_MEM(gc_mutex))
#else
#define GC_ENTER()
#define GC_EXIT()
#endif
So, we can completely remove gc_mutex everywhere when MICROPY_PY_THREAD
&& !MICROPY_PY_THREAD_GIL.
Introduces a way to place CircuitPython code and data into
tightly coupled memory (TCM) which is accessible by the CPU in a
single cycle. It also frees up room in the corresponding cache for
intermittent data. Loading from external flash is slow!
The data cache is also now enabled.
Adds support for the iMX RT 1021 chip. Adds three new boards:
* iMX RT 1020 EVK
* iMX RT 1060 EVK
* Teensy 4.0
Related to #2492, #2472 and #2477. Fixes#2475.
Can be used where mp_obj_int_get_checked() will overflow due to the
sign-bit solely. This returns an mp_uint_t, so it also verifies the given
integer is not negative.
Currently implemented only for mpz configurations.
This function is called often and with immediate objects enabled it has
more cases, so optimise it for speed. With this optimisation the runtime
is now slightly faster with immediate objects enabled than with them
disabled.
This option (enabled by default for object representation A, B, C) makes
None/False/True objects immediate objects, ie they are no longer a concrete
object in ROM but are rather just values, eg None=0x6 for representation A.
Doing this saves a considerable amount of code size, due to these objects
being widely used:
bare-arm: -392 -0.591%
minimal x86: -252 -0.170% [incl +52(data)]
unix x64: -624 -0.125% [incl -128(data)]
unix nanbox: +0 +0.000%
stm32: -1940 -0.510% PYBV10
cc3200: -1216 -0.659%
esp8266: -404 -0.062% GENERIC
esp32: -732 -0.064% GENERIC[incl +48(data)]
nrf: -988 -0.675% pca10040
samd: -564 -0.556% ADAFRUIT_ITSYBITSY_M4_EXPRESS
Thanks go to @Jongy aka Yonatan Goldschmidt for the idea.
This commit adjusts the definition of qstr encoding in all object
representations by taking a single bit from the qstr space and using it to
distinguish between qstrs and a new kind of literal object: immediate
objects. In other words, the qstr space is divided in two pieces, one half
for qstrs and the other half for immediate objects.
There is still enough room for qstr values (29 bits in representation A on
a 32-bit architecture, and 19 bits in representation C) and the new
immediate objects can be used for things like None, False and True.
This moves the MICROPY_PORT_INIT_FUNC hook to the end of mp_init(), just
before MP_THREAD_GIL_ENTER(), so that everything (in particular the GIL
mutex) is intialized before the hook is called. MICROPY_PORT_DEINIT_FUNC
is also moved to be symmetric (but there is no functional change there).
If a port needs to perform initialisation earlier than
MICROPY_PORT_INIT_FUNC then it can do it before calling mp_init().
This commit adds backward-word, backward-kill-word, forward-word,
forward-kill-word sequences for the REPL, with bindings to Alt+F, Alt+B,
Alt+D and Alt+Backspace respectively. It is disabled by default and can be
enabled via MICROPY_REPL_EMACS_WORDS_MOVE.
Further enabling MICROPY_REPL_EMACS_EXTRA_WORDS_MOVE adds extra bindings
for these new sequences: Ctrl+Right, Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+W.
The features are enabled on unix micropython-coverage and micropython-dev.
Most types are in rodata/ROM, and mp_obj_base_t.type is a constant pointer,
so enforce this const-ness throughout the code base. If a type ever needs
to be modified (eg a user type) then a simple cast can be used.
In this unusual case, (len + 1) is zero, the allocation in vstr_init
succeeds (allocating 1 byte), and then the caller is likely to erroneously
access outside the allocated region, for instance with a memset().
This could be triggered with os.urandom(-1) after it was converted to use
mp_obj_new_bytes_of_zeros.
PacketBuffer facilitates packet oriented BLE protocols such as BLE
MIDI and the Apple Media Service.
This also adds PHY, MTU and connection event extension negotiation
to speed up data transfer when possible.
Instances of the slice class are passed to __getitem__() on objects when
the user indexes them with a slice. In practice the majority of the time
(other than passing it on untouched) is to work out what the slice means in
the context of an array dimension of a particular length. Since Python 2.3
there has been a method on the slice class, indices(), that takes a
dimension length and returns the real start, stop and step, accounting for
missing or negative values in the slice spec. This commit implements such
a indices() method on the slice class.
It is configurable at compile-time via MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_SLICE_INDICES,
disabled by default, enabled on unix, stm32 and esp32 ports.
This commit also adds new tests for slice indices and for slicing unicode
strings.
In CPython, EnvironmentError and IOError are now aliases of OSError so no
need to have them listed in the code. OverflowError inherits from
ArithmeticError because it's intended to be raised "when the result of an
arithmetic operation is too large to be represented" (per CPython docs),
and MicroPython aims to match the CPython exception hierarchy.
For the 3 ports that already make use of this feature (stm32, nrf and
teensy) this doesn't make any difference, it just allows to disable it from
now on.
For other ports that use pyexec, this decreases code size because the debug
printing code is dead (it can't be enabled) but the compiler can't deduce
that, so code is still emitted.
The qst value is always small enough to fit in 31-bits (even less) and
using a 32-bit shift rather than a 64-bit shift reduces code size by about
300 bytes.
A user-defined type that defines __iter__ doesn't need any memory to be
pre-allocated for its iterator (because it can't use such memory). So
optimise for this case by not allocating the iter-buf.
In commit 71a3d6ec3b mp_setup_code_state was
changed from a 5-arg function to a 4-arg function, and at that point 5-arg
calls in native code were no longer needed. See also commit
4f9842ad80.
Allows assigning attributes on class instances that implement their own
__setattr__. Both object.__setattr__ and super(A, b).__setattr__ will work
with this commit.
This makes the loading of viper-code-with-relocations a bit neater and
easier to understand, by treating the rodata/bss like a special object to
be loaded into the constant table (which is how it behaves).
By having an order-only dependency on the directory itself, the directory
is sure to be created before the rule to create a .mo file is.
This fixes a low-freqency error on github actions such as
> msgfmt: error while opening "build/genhdr/en_US.mo" for writing: No such file or directory
These s16-s21 registers are used by gcc so need to be saved. Future
versions of gcc (beyond v9.1.0), or other compilers, may eventually need
additional registers saved/restored.
See issue #4844.
Recent versions of gcc perform optimisations which can lead to the
following code from the MP_NLR_JUMP_HEAD macro being omitted:
top->ret_val = val; \
MP_NLR_RESTORE_PYSTACK(top); \
*_top_ptr = top->prev; \
This is noticeable (at least) in the unix coverage on x86-64 built with gcc
9.1.0. This is because the nlr_jump function is marked as no-return, so
gcc deduces that the above code has no effect.
Adding MP_UNREACHABLE tells the compiler that the asm code may branch
elsewhere, and so it cannot optimise away the code.
We don't want to add a feature flag to .mpy files that indicate float
support because it will get complex and difficult to use. Instead the .mpy
is built using whatever precision it chooses (float or double) and the
native glue API will convert between this choice and what the host runtime
actually uses.
This commit adds a new tool called mpy_ld.py which is essentially a linker
that builds .mpy files directly from .o files. A new header file
(dynruntime.h) and makefile fragment (dynruntime.mk) are also included
which allow building .mpy files from C source code. Such .mpy files can
then be dynamically imported as though they were a normal Python module,
even though they are implemented in C.
Converting .o files directly (rather than pre-linked .elf files) allows the
resulting .mpy to be more efficient because it has more control over the
relocations; for example it can skip PLT indirection. Doing it this way
also allows supporting more architectures, such as Xtensa which has
specific needs for position-independent code and the GOT.
The tool supports targets of x86, x86-64, ARM Thumb and Xtensa (windowed
and non-windowed). BSS, text and rodata sections are supported, with
relocations to all internal sections and symbols, as well as relocations to
some external symbols (defined by dynruntime.h), and linking of qstrs.
Implements text, rodata and bss generalised relocations, as well as generic
qstr-object linking. This allows importing dynamic native modules on all
supported architectures in a unified way.
Protocols are nice, but there is no way for C code to verify whether
a type's "protocol" structure actually implements some particular
protocol. As a result, you can pass an object that implements the
"vfs" protocol to one that expects the "stream" protocol, and the
opposite of awesomeness ensues.
This patch adds an OPTIONAL (but enabled by default) protocol identifier
as the first member of any protocol structure. This identifier is
simply a unique QSTR chosen by the protocol designer and used by each
protocol implementer. When checking for protocol support, instead of
just checking whether the object's type has a non-NULL protocol field,
use `mp_proto_get` which implements the protocol check when possible.
The existing protocols are now named:
protocol_framebuf
protocol_i2c
protocol_pin
protocol_stream
protocol_spi
protocol_vfs
(most of these are unused in CP and are just inherited from MP; vfs and
stream are definitely used though)
I did not find any crashing examples, but here's one to give a flavor of what
is improved, using `micropython_coverage`. Before the change,
the vfs "ioctl" protocol is invoked, and the result is not intelligible
as json (but it could have resulted in a hard fault, potentially):
>>> import uos, ujson
>>> u = uos.VfsPosix('/tmp')
>>> ujson.load(u)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: syntax error in JSON
After the change, the vfs object is correctly detected as not supporting
the stream protocol:
>>> ujson.load(p)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
OSError: stream operation not supported
If a translation only has unicode code points 255 and below, the "values"
array can be 8 bits instead of 16 bits. This reclaims some code size,
e.g., in a local build, trinket_m0 / en_US reclaimed 112 bytes and de_DE
reclaimed 104 bytes. However, languages like zh_Latn_pinyin, which use
code points above 255, did not benefit.
By treating each unicode code-point as a single entity for huffman
compression, the overall compression rate can be somewhat improved
without changing the algorithm. On the decompression side, when
compressed values above 127 are encountered, they need to be
converted from a 16-bit Unicode code point into a UTF-8 byte
sequence.
Doing this returns approximately 1.5kB of flash storage with the
zh_Latn_pinyin translation. (292 -> 1768 bytes remaining in my build
of trinket_m0)
Other "more ASCII" translations benefit less, and in fact
zh_Latn_pinyin is no longer the most constrained translation!
(de_DE 1156 -> 1384 bytes free in flash, I didn't check others
before pushing for CI)
English is slightly pessimized, 2840 -> 2788 bytes, probably mostly
because the "values" array was changed from uint8_t to uint16_t,
which is strictly not required for an all-ASCII translation. This
could probably be avoided in this case, but as English is not the
most constrained translation it doesn't really matter.
Testing performed: built for feather nRF52840 express and trinket m0
in English and zh_Latn_pinyin; ran and verified the localized
messages such as

When adding the ability for boards to turn on the `@micropython.native`, `viper`, and `asm_thumb` decorators it was pointed out that it's somewhat awkward to write libraries and drivers that can take advantage of this since the decorators raise `SyntaxErrors` if they aren't enabled. In the case of `viper` and `asm_thumb` this behavior makes sense as they require writing non-normative code. Drivers could have a normal and viper/thumb implementation and implement them as such:
```python
try:
import _viper_impl as _impl
except SyntaxError:
import _python_impl as _impl
def do_thing():
return _impl.do_thing()
```
For `native`, however, this behavior and the pattern to work around it is less than ideal. Since `native` code should also be valid Python code (although not necessarily the other way around) using the pattern above means *duplicating* the Python implementation and adding `@micropython.native` in the code. This is an unnecessary maintenance burden.
This commit *modifies* the behavior of the `@micropython.native` decorator. On boards with `CIRCUITPY_ENABLE_MPY_NATIVE` turned on it operates as usual. On boards with it turned off it does *nothing*- it doesn't raise a `SyntaxError` and doesn't apply optimizations. This means we can write our drivers/libraries once and take advantage of speedups on boards where they are enabled.
With the memcpy() call placed last it avoids the effects of registers
clobbering. It's definitely effective in non-inlined functions, but even
here it is still making a small difference. For example, on stm32, this
saves an extra `ldr` instruction to load `o->vstr` after the memcpy()
returns.
The string length being longer than the allowed qstr length can happen in
many locations, for example in the parser with very long variable names.
Without an explicit check that the length is within range (as done in this
patch) the code would exhibit crashes and strange behaviour with truncated
strings.
This improves performance of running python code by 34%, based
on the "pystone" benchmark on metro m4 express at 5000 passes
(1127.65 -> 1521.6 passes/second).
In addition, by instrumenting the tick function and monitoring on an
oscilloscope, the time actually spent in run_background_tasks() on
the metro m4 decreases from average 43% to 0.5%. (however, there's
some additional overhead that is moved around and not accounted for
in that "0.5%" figure, each time supervisor_run_background_tasks_if_tick
is called but no tick has occurred)
On the CPB, it increases pystone from 633 to 769, a smaller percentage
increase of 21%. I did not measure the time actually spent in
run_background_tasks() on CPB.
Testing performed: on metro m4 and cpb, run pystone adapted from python3.4
(change time.time to time.monotonic for sub-second resolution)
Besides running a 5000 pass test, I also ran a 50-pass test while
scoping how long an output pin was set. Average: 34.59ms or 1445/s on m4,
67.61ms or 739/s on cbp, both matching the other pystone result reasonably
well.
import pystone
import board
import digitalio
import time
d = digitalio.DigitalInOut(board.D13)
d.direction = digitalio.Direction.OUTPUT
while True:
d.value = 0
time.sleep(.01)
d.value = 1
pystone.main(50)
This code is shared by most parts, except where not all the #ifdefs
inside the tick function were present in all ports. This mostly would
have broken gamepad tick support on non-samd ports.
The "ms32" and "ms64" variants of the tick functions are introduced
because there is no 64-bit atomic read. Disabling interrupts avoids
a low probability bug where milliseconds could be off by ~49.5 days
once every ~49.5 days (2^32 ms).
Avoiding disabling interrupts when only the low 32 bits are needed is a minor
optimization.
Testing performed: on metro m4 express, USB still works and
time.monotonic_ns() still counts up
To benefit from gcc's "once-only headers" implementation, the
"wrapper-#ifndef" must be the first non-comment part of the file,
according to the manual for various gcc/cpp versions.
This commit adds a sys.implementation.mpy entry when the system supports
importing .mpy files. This entry is a 16-bit integer which encodes two
bytes of information from the header of .mpy files that are supported by
the system being run: the second and third bytes, .mpy version, and flags
and native architecture. This allows determining the supported .mpy file
dynamically by code, and also for the user to find it out by inspecting
this value. It's further possible to dynamically detect if the system
supports importing .mpy files by `hasattr(sys.implementation, 'mpy')`.
Replace the is_running field with a tri-state variable to indicate
running/not-running/pending-exception.
Update tests to cover the various cases.
This allows cancellation in uasyncio even if the coroutine hasn't been
executed yet. Fixes#5242
This wasn't necessary as the wrapped function already has a reference to
its globals. But it had a dual purpose of tracking whether the function
was currently running, so replace it with a bool.
runtime0.h is part of the MicroPython ABI so it's simpler if it's
independent of config options, like MICROPY_PY_REVERSE_SPECIAL_METHODS.
What's effectively done here is to move MP_BINARY_OP_DIVMOD and
MP_BINARY_OP_CONTAINS up in the enum, then remove the #if
MICROPY_PY_REVERSE_SPECIAL_METHODS conditional.
Without this change .mpy files would need to have a feature flag for
MICROPY_PY_REVERSE_SPECIAL_METHODS (when embedding native code that uses
this enum).
This commit has no effect when MICROPY_PY_REVERSE_SPECIAL_METHODS is
disabled. With this option enabled this commit reduces code size by about
60 bytes.
For consistency with "umachine". Now that weak links are enabled
by default for built-in modules, this should be a no-op, but allows
extension of the bluetooth module by user code.
Also move registration of ubluetooth to objmodule rather than
port-specific.
This commit implements automatic module weak links for all built-in
modules, by searching for "ufoo" in the built-in module list if "foo"
cannot be found. This means that all modules named "ufoo" are always
available as "foo". Also, a port can no longer add any other weak links,
which makes strict the definition of a weak link.
It saves some code size (about 100-200 bytes) on ports that previously had
lots of weak links.
Some changes from the previous behaviour:
- It doesn't intern the non-u module names (eg "foo" is not interned),
which saves code size, but will mean that "import foo" creates a new qstr
(namely "foo") in RAM (unless the importing module is frozen).
- help('modules') no longer lists non-u module names, only the u-variants;
this reduces duplication in the help listing.
Weak links are effectively the same as having a set of symbolic links on
the filesystem that is searched last. So an "import foo" will search
built-in modules first, then all paths in sys.path, then weak links last,
importing "ufoo" if it exists. Thus a file called "foo.py" somewhere in
sys.path will still have precedence over the weak link of "foo" to "ufoo".

This PR refines the _bleio API. It was originally motivated by
the addition of a new CircuitPython service that enables reading
and modifying files on the device. Moving the BLE lifecycle outside
of the VM motivated a number of changes to remove heap allocations
in some APIs.
It also motivated unifying connection initiation to the Adapter class
rather than the Central and Peripheral classes which have been removed.
Adapter now handles the GAP portion of BLE including advertising, which
has moved but is largely unchanged, and scanning, which has been enhanced
to return an iterator of filtered results.
Once a connection is created (either by us (aka Central) or a remote
device (aka Peripheral)) it is represented by a new Connection class.
This class knows the current connection state and can discover and
instantiate remote Services along with their Characteristics and
Descriptors.

When loading a manifest file, e.g. by include(), it will chdir first to the
directory of that manifest. This means that all file operations within a
manifest are relative to that manifest's location.
As a consequence of this, additional environment variables are needed to
find absolute paths, so the following are added: $(MPY_LIB_DIR),
$(PORT_DIR), $(BOARD_DIR). And rename $(MPY) to $(MPY_DIR) to be
consistent.
Existing manifests are updated to match.
This introduces a new build variable FROZEN_MANIFEST which can be set to a
manifest listing (written in Python) that describes the set of files to be
frozen in to the firmware.
Instead of encoding 4 zero bytes as placeholders for the simple_name and
source_file qstrs, and storing the qstrs after the bytecode, store the
qstrs at the location of these 4 bytes. This saves 4 bytes per bytecode
function stored in a .mpy file (for example lcd160cr.mpy drops by 232
bytes, 4x 58 functions). And resulting code size is slightly reduced on
ports that use this feature.
If kw_args is NULL then memcpy() gets a NULL source argument.
This is undefined behavior under the C standard, even if 0 bytes
are being copied.
This problem was found using clang 7's scan-build static analyzer.
Left shift of negative numbers is undefined in the "C" standard. Multiplying
by 128 has the intended effect (in the absence of integer overflow, anyway),
can be implemented using the same shift instruction, but does not invoke
undefined behavior.
This problem was found using clang 7's scan-build static analyzer.
The remaining assignment was added in upstream micropython; the
deleted assignment was added in circuitpython as part of the long-lived
object area feature. During the merge, the redundant assignment
was not removed.
(since collected is a local variable and no pointers to it escape,
it doesn't seem possible for the placement of the assignment before
or after GC_ENTER() is important)

In which case place the native function prelude in a bytes object, linked
from the const_table of that function. An architecture should define
N_PRELUDE_AS_BYTES_OBJ to 1 before including py/emitnative.c to emit
correct machine code, then enable MICROPY_EMIT_NATIVE_PRELUDE_AS_BYTES_OBJ
so the runtime can correctly handle the prelude being in a bytes object.
Such that args/return regs for the parent are different to args/return regs
for child calls. For an architecture to use this feature it should define
the REG_PARENT_xxx macros before including py/emitnative.c.
Prior to this commit, when unwinding through an active finally the stack
was not being correctly popped/folded, which resulting in the VM crashing
for complicated unwinding of nested finallys.
This should be fixed with this commit, and more tests for return/break/
continue within a finally have been added to exercise this.
As of 7d58a197cf, `NULL` should no longer be
here because it's allowed (MP_QSTRnull took its place). This entry was
preventing the use of MP_QSTR_NULL to mean "NULL" (although this is not
currently used).
A blacklist should not be needed because it should be possible to intern
all strings.
Fixes issue #5140.
This check follows CPython's behaviour, because 'import *' always populates
the globals with the imported names, not locals.
Since it's safe to do this (doesn't lead to a crash or undefined behaviour)
the check is only enabled for MICROPY_CPYTHON_COMPAT.
Fixes issue #5121.
This patch compresses the second part of the bytecode prelude which
contains the source file name, function name, source-line-number mapping
and cell closure information. This part of the prelude now begins with a
single varible length unsigned integer which encodes 2 numbers, being the
byte-size of the following 2 sections in the header: the "source info
section" and the "closure section". After decoding this variable unsigned
integer it's possible to skip over one or both of these sections very
easily.
This scheme saves about 2 bytes for most functions compared to the original
format: one in the case that there are no closure cells, and one because
padding was eliminated.
The start of the bytecode prelude contains 6 numbers telling the amount of
stack needed for the Python values and exceptions, and the signature of the
function. Prior to this patch these numbers were all encoded one after the
other (2x variable unsigned integers, then 4x bytes), but using so many
bytes is unnecessary.
An entropy analysis of around 150,000 bytecode functions from the CPython
standard library showed that the optimal Shannon coding would need about
7.1 bits on average to encode these 6 numbers, compared to the existing 48
bits.
This patch attempts to get close to this optimal value by packing the 6
numbers into a single, varible-length unsigned integer via bit-wise
interleaving. The interleaving scheme is chosen to minimise the average
number of bytes needed, and at the same time keep the scheme simple enough
so it can be implemented without too much overhead in code size or speed.
The scheme requires about 10.5 bits on average to store the 6 numbers.
As a result most functions which originally took 6 bytes to encode these 6
numbers now need only 1 byte (in 80% of cases).
From the beginning of this project the RAISE_VARARGS opcode was named and
implemented following CPython, where it has an argument (to the opcode)
counting how many args the raise takes:
raise # 0 args (re-raise previous exception)
raise exc # 1 arg
raise exc from exc2 # 2 args (chained raise)
In the bytecode this operation therefore takes 2 bytes, one for
RAISE_VARARGS and one for the number of args.
This patch splits this opcode into 3, where each is now a single byte.
This reduces bytecode size by 1 byte for each use of raise. Every byte
counts! It also has the benefit of reducing code size (on all ports except
nanbox).
To make progress towards MicroPython supporting Python 3.5, adding the
matmul operator is important because it's a really "low level" part of the
language, being a new token and modifications to the grammar.
It doesn't make sense to make it configurable because 1) it would make the
grammar and lexer complicated/messy; 2) no other operators are
configurable; 3) it's not a feature that can be "dynamically plugged in"
via an import.
And matmul can be useful as a general purpose user-defined operator, it
doesn't have to be just for numpy use.

Prior to this patch mp_opcode_format would calculate the incorrect size of
the MP_BC_UNWIND_JUMP opcode, missing the additional byte. But, because
opcodes below 0x10 are unused and treated as bytes in the .mpy load/save
and freezing code, this bug did not show any symptoms, since nested unwind
jumps would rarely (if ever) reach a depth of 16 (so the extra byte of this
opcode would be between 0x01 and 0x0f and be correctly loaded/saved/frozen
simply as an undefined opcode).
This patch fixes this bug by correctly accounting for the additional byte.
.
With this patch alignment is done relative to the start of the buffer that
is being unpacked, not the raw pointer value, as per CPython.
Fixes issue #3314.
This commit adds support for sys.settrace, allowing to install Python
handlers to trace execution of Python code. The interface follows CPython
as closely as possible. The feature is disabled by default and can be
enabled via MICROPY_PY_SYS_SETTRACE.
Prior to this patch the line number for a lambda would be "line 1" if the
body of the lambda contained only a simple expression (with no line number
stored in the parse node). Now the line number is always reported
correctly.
mp_compile no longer takes an emit_opt argument, rather this setting is now
provided by the global default_emit_opt variable.
Now, when -X emit=native is passed as a command-line option, the emitter
will be set for all compiled modules (included imports), not just the
top-level script.
In the future there could be a way to also set this variable from a script.
Fixes issue #4267.
With this patch exceptions that are re-raised have improved tracebacks
(less confusing, match CPython), and it makes re-raise slightly more
efficient (in time and RAM) because they no longer need to add a traceback.
Also general VM performance is not measurably affected.
Partially fixes issue #2928.

Partially fixes issue #2928.
It's really an opcode that's not implemented, so use "opcode" instead of
"byte code". And remove the redundant "not implemented" text because that
is already implied by the exception type. There's no need to have a long
error message for an exception that is almost never encountered. Saves
about 20 bytes of code size on most ports.
Enabled via MICROPY_PY_URE_DEBUG, disabled by default (but enabled on unix
coverage build). This is a rarely used feature that costs a lot of code
(500-800 bytes flash). Debugging of regular expressions can be done
offline with other tools.
Recent versions of gcc perform optimisations which can lead to the
following code from the MP_NLR_JUMP_HEAD macro being omitted:
top->ret_val = val; \
MP_NLR_RESTORE_PYSTACK(top); \
*_top_ptr = top->prev; \
This is noticeable (at least) in the unix coverage on x86-64 built with gcc
9.1.0. This is because the nlr_jump function is marked as no-return, so
gcc deduces that the above code has no effect.
Adding MP_UNREACHABLE tells the compiler that the asm code may branch
elsewhere, and so it cannot optimise away the code.
Testing performed: That the shipped .mpy files on a PyPortal (CP 4.x)
still work (play audio) with this branch, instead of erroring because
`WaveFile` can't be found in `audioio`.
Flash usage grew by 28 bytes. (I expected 24, there must be some other
effect on size/alignment that I didn't predict)
As per PEP 485, this function appeared in for Python 3.5. Configured via

Prior to this patch the amount of free space in an array (including
bytearray) was not being maintained correctly for the case of slice
assignment which changed the size of the array. Under certain cases (as
encoded in the new test) it was possible that the array could grow beyond
its allocated memory block and corrupt the heap.
Fixes issue #4127.
This patch implements a new sys.atexit function which registers a function
that is later executed when the main script ends. It is configurable via
MICROPY_PY_SYS_ATEXIT, disabled by default.
This is not compliant with CPython, rather it can be used to implement a
CPython compatible "atexit" module if desired (similar to how
sys.print_exception can be used to implement functionality of the
"traceback" module).

It is possible for this routine to expand some inputs, and in fact
it does for certan strings in the proposed Korean translation of
CircuitPython (#1858). I did not determine what the maximum
expansion is -- it's probably modest, like len()/7+2 bytes or
something -- so I tried to just make enc[] an adequate
over-allocation, and then ensured that all the strings in the
proposed ko.po now worked. The worst actual expansion seems to be a
string that goes from 65 UTF-8-encoded bytes to 68 compressed bytes
(+4.6%). Only a few out of all strings are reported as
non-compressed.
This patch adds a simple but powerful hook into the import system, in a
CPython compatible way, by allowing to override builtins.__import__.
This does introduce some overhead to all imports but it's minor:
- the dict lookup of __import__ is bypassed if there are no modifications
to the builtins module (which is the case at start up);
- imports are not performance critical, usually done just at the start of a
script;
- compared to how much work is done in an import, looking up a value in a
dict is a relatively small additional piece of work.
JSON requires that keys of objects be strings. CPython will therefore
automatically quote simple types (NoneType, bool, int, float) when they are
used directly as keys in JSON output. To prevent subtle bugs and emit
compliant JSON, MicroPython should at least test for such keys so they
aren't silently let through. Then doing the actual quoting is a similar
cost to raising an exception, so that's what is implemented by this patch.
Fixes issue #4790.
When nrf pwm audio is introduced, it will be called `audiopwmio`. To
enable code sharing with the existing (dac-based) `audioio`, factor
the sample and mixer types to `audiocore`.
INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: Now, `Mixer`, `RawSample` and `WaveFile` must
be imported from `audiocore`, not `audioio`.
This also improves Palette so it stores the original RGB888 colors.

With both MICROPY_PERSISTENT_CODE_SAVE and MICROPY_PERSISTENT_CODE_LOAD
enabled the code fails to compile, due to undeclared 'n_obj'. If
MICROPY_EMIT_NATIVE is disabled there are more errors due to the use of

This patch fixes such compilation by avoiding undefined fields.
MICROPY_EMIT_NATIVE was changed to MICROPY_EMIT_MACHINE_CODE in this file
to match the mp_raw_code_t definition.
These s16-s21 registers are used by gcc so need to be saved. Future

Instead of converting to a small-int at runtime this can be done at compile
time, then we only have a simple comparison during runtime. This reduces
code size on some ports (e.g -4 on qemu-arm, -52 on unix nanbox), and for
others at least doesn't increase code size.
mpy-cross uses MICROPY_DYNAMIC_COMPILER and MICROPY_EMIT_NATIVE but does
not actually need to execute native functions, and does not need
mp_fun_table. This commit makes it so mp_fun_table and all its entries are
not built when MICROPY_DYNAMIC_COMPILER is enabled, significantly reducing
the size of the mpy-cross executable and allowing it to be built on more
machines/OS's.

Reuse the implementation for bytes since it works the same way regardless
of the underlying type. This method gets added for CPython compatibility
of bytearray, but to keep the code simple and small array.array now also
has a working decode method, which is non-standard but doesn't hurt.
This allows figuring out the number of bytes in the memoryview object as
len(memview) * memview.itemsize.
The feature is enabled via MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_MEMORYVIEW_ITEMSIZE and is
disabled by default.
If a native displayio object is accessed before it's super().__init__()

This fixes a crash on boards with built-in displays which statically

During make, makemoduledefs.py parses the current builds c files for
MP_REGISTER_MODULE(module_name, obj_module, enabled_define)
These are used to generate a header with the required entries for
"mp_rom_map_elem_t mp_builtin_module_table[]" in py/objmodule.c
This commit adds support for saving and loading .mpy files that contain
native code (native, viper and inline-asm). A lot of the ground work was
already done for this in the form of removing pointers from generated
native code. The changes here are mainly to link in qstr values to the
native code, and change the format of .mpy files to contain native code
blocks (possibly mixed with bytecode).
A top-level summary:
- @micropython.native, @micropython.viper and @micropython.asm_thumb/
asm_xtensa are now allowed in .py files when compiling to .mpy, and they
work transparently to the user.
- Entire .py files can be compiled to native via mpy-cross -X emit=native
and for the most part the generated .mpy files should work the same as
their bytecode version.
- The .mpy file format is changed to 1) specify in the header if the file
contains native code and if so the architecture (eg x86, ARMV7M, Xtensa);
2) for each function block the kind of code is specified (bytecode,
native, viper, asm).
- When native code is loaded from a .mpy file the native code must be
modified (in place) to link qstr values in, just like bytecode (see
py/persistentcode.c:arch_link_qstr() function).
In addition, this now defines a public, native ABI for dynamically loadable
native code generated by other languages, like C.
The new compile-time option is MICROPY_DEBUG_MP_OBJ_SENTINELS, disabled by
default. This is to allow finer control of whether this debugging feature
is enabled or not (because, for example, this setting must be the same for
mpy-cross and the MicroPython main code when using native code generation).
When encoded in the mpy file, if qstr <= QSTR_LAST_STATIC then store two
bytes: 0, static_qstr_id. Otherwise encode the qstr as usual (either with
string data or a reference into the qstr window).
Reduces mpy file size by about 5%.
Instead of emitting two bytes in the bytecode for where the linked qstr
should be written to, it is now replaced by the actual qstr data, or a
reference into the qstr window.
Reduces mpy file size by about 10%.
This is an implementation of a sliding qstr window used to reduce the
number of qstrs stored in a .mpy file. The window size is configured to 32
entries which takes a fixed 64 bytes (16-bits each) on the C stack when
loading/saving a .mpy file. It allows to remember the most recent 32 qstrs
so they don't need to be stored again in the .mpy file. The qstr window
uses a simple least-recently-used mechanism to discard the least recently
used qstr when the window overflows (similar to dictionary compression).
This scheme only needs a single pass to save/load the .mpy file.
Reduces mpy file size by about 25% with a window size of 32.
POP_BLOCK and POP_EXCEPT are now the same, and are always followed by a
JUMP. So this optimisation reduces code size, and RAM usage of bytecode by
two bytes for each try-except handler.
This patch fixes a bug in the VM when breaking within a try-finally. The
bug has to do with executing a break within the finally block of a
try-finally statement. For example:
def f():
for x in (1,):
print('a', x)
try:
raise Exception
finally:
print(1)
break
print('b', x)
f()
Currently in uPy the above code will print:
a 1
1
1
segmentation fault (core dumped) micropython
Not only is there a seg fault, but the "1" in the finally block is printed
twice. This is because when the VM executes a finally block it doesn't
really know if that block was executed due to a fall-through of the try (no
exception raised), or because an exception is active. In particular, for
nested finallys the VM has no idea which of the nested ones have active
exceptions and which are just fall-throughs. So when a break (or continue)
is executed it tries to unwind all of the finallys, when in fact only some
may be active.
It's questionable whether break (or return or continue) should be allowed
within a finally block, because they implicitly swallow any active
exception, but nevertheless it's allowed by CPython (although almost never
used in the standard library). And uPy should at least not crash in such a
case.
The solution here relies on the fact that exception and finally handlers
always appear in the bytecode after the try body.
Note: there was a similar bug with a return in a finally block, but that
was previously fixed in b735208403
Also, to make it possible for ports to provide their own lwipopts.h, the
default include directory of extmod/lwip-include is no longer added and
instead a port should now make sure the correct include directory is
included in the list (can still use extmod/lwip-include).
This optimisation eliminates the need to create a temporary normal dict.
The optimisation is enabled via MICROPY_COMP_CONST_LITERAL which is enabled
by default (although only has an effect if OrderdDict is enabled).
Thanks to @pfalcon for the initial idea and implementation.
All exceptions that unwind through the async-with must be caught and
BaseException is the top-level class, which includes Exception and others.
Fixes issue #4552.

As mentioned in #4450, `websocket` was experimental with a single intended
user, `webrepl`. Therefore, we'll make this change without a weak
link `websocket` -> `uwebsocket`.
This changes a number of things in displayio:
* Introduces BuiltinFont and Glyph so the built in font can be used by libraries. For boards with
a font it is available as board.TERMINAL_FONT. Fixes#1172
* Remove _load_row from Bitmap in favor of bitmap[] access. Index can be x/y tuple or overall index. Fixes#1191
* Add width and height properties to Bitmap.
* Add insert and [] access to Group. Fixes#1518
* Add index param to pop on Group.
* Terminal no longer takes unicode character info. It takes a BuiltinFont instead.
* Fix Terminal's handling of [###D vt100 commands used when up arrowing into repl history.
* Add x and y positions to Group plus scale as well.
* Add bitmap accessor for BuiltinFont
This change makes it so that python3 is required by default to build
MicroPython. Python 2 can be used by specifying make PYTHON=python2.
This comes about due to a recent-ish change to PEP 394 that makes the
python command more optional than before (even with Python 2 installed);
see cd59ec03c8 (diff-1d22f7bd72cbc900670f058b1107d426)
Since the command python is no longer required to be provided by a
distribution we need to use either python2 or python3 as commands. And
python3 seems the obvious choice.
These macros could in principle be (inline) functions so it makes sense to
have them lower case, to match the other C API functions.
The remaining macros that are upper case are:
- MP_OBJ_TO_PTR, MP_OBJ_FROM_PTR
- MP_OBJ_NEW_SMALL_INT, MP_OBJ_SMALL_INT_VALUE
- MP_OBJ_NEW_QSTR, MP_OBJ_QSTR_VALUE
- MP_OBJ_FUN_MAKE_SIG
- MP_DECLARE_CONST_xxx
- MP_DEFINE_CONST_xxx
These must remain macros because they are used when defining const data (at
least, MP_OBJ_NEW_SMALL_INT is so it makes sense to have
MP_OBJ_SMALL_INT_VALUE also a macro).
For those macros that have been made lower case, compatibility macros are
provided for the old names so that users do not need to change their code
immediately.
Python defines warnings as belonging to categories, where category is a
warning type (descending from exception type). This is useful, as e.g.
allows to disable warnings selectively and provide user-defined warning
types. So, implement this in MicroPython, except that categories are
represented just with strings. However, enough hooks are left to implement
categories differently per-port (e.g. as types), without need to patch each
and every usage.
If MICROPY_PERSISTENT_CODE_LOAD or MICROPY_ENABLE_COMPILER are enabled then
code gets enabled that calls file reading functions which may be disabled
if no readers have been implemented.
To fix this, introduce a MICROPY_HAS_FILE_READER variable, which is
automatically set if MICROPY_READER_POSIX or MICROPY_READER_VFS is set but
can also be manually set if a custom reader is being implemented. Then
disable the file reading calls if this is not set.
For architectures where size_t is less than 32 bits (eg 16 bits) the args
must be casted to uint32_t so the left shift will work. For architectures
where size_t is greater than 32 bits (eg 64 bits) this new casting will not
lose any bits because the end result must anyway fit in a uint32_t.
Changes to the layout of the bytecode header meant that this debug code was
no longer compiling. This is now fixed and a new compile-time option is
introduced, MICROPY_DEBUG_VM_STACK_OVERFLOW, to turn on this feature (which
is disabled by default). This option is needed because more than one file
needs to cooperate to make this check work.
It's more robust to have the version defined statically in a header file,
rather than dynamically generating it via git using a git tag. In case
git doesn't exist, or a different source control tool is used, it's
important to still have the uPy version number available.
The older "bool has_finaliser" gets recast as GC_ALLOC_FLAG_HAS_FINALISER=1
so this is a backwards compatible change to the signature. Since bool gets
implicitly converted to 1 this patch doesn't include conversion of all
calls.
Both mp_type_array and mp_type_memoryview use the same object structure,
mp_obj_array_t, but for the case of memoryview, some fields, e.g. "free",
have different meaning. As the "free" field is also a bitfield, assume
that (anonymous) union can't be used here (for the concerns of possible
compatibility issues with wide array of toolchains), and just add a field
alias using a #define. As it's a define, it should be a selective
identifier, so use verbose "memview_offset" to avoid any clashes.
All 4 opcodes that can have caching bytes also have qstrs, so the test for
them must go in the qstr part of the code. The reason this incorrect
calculation of the opcode size did not lead to a bug is because the caching
byte is at the end of the opcode (byte, qstr, qstr, cache) and is always
0x00 when saving/loading, so was just treated as a single byte no-op
opcode. Hence these opcodes were being saved/loaded/decoded correctly.
Thanks to @malinah for finding the problem and providing the initial patch.
mp_obj_new_exception_msg() assumes that the message passed to it is in ROM
and so can use its data directly to create the string object for the
argument of the exception, saving RAM. At the same time, this approach
also makes sure that there is no attempt to format the message with printf,
which could lead to faults if the message contained % characters.
Fixes issue #3004.
SHORT, INT, LONG, LONGLONG, and unsigned (U*) variants are being defined.
This is done at compile using GCC-style predefined macros like
__SIZEOF_INT__. If the compiler doesn't have such defines, no such types
will be defined.
This creates a common safe mode mechanic that ports can share.
As a result, the nRF52 now has safe mode support as well.
The common safe mode adds a 700ms delay at startup where a reset
during that window will cause a reset into safe mode. This window
is designated by a yellow status pixel and flashing the single led
three times.
A couple NeoPixel fixes are included for the nRF52 as well.
Fixes#1034. Fixes#990. Fixes#615.
Instead of assuming that the method is a bytecode object, and only
supporting load of __name__, make the operation generic by delegating the
load to the method object itself. Saves a bit of code size and fixes the
case of attempting to load __name__ on a native method, see issue #4028.
The backtrace cannot be given because it relies on the validity
of the qstr data structures on the heap which may have been
corrupted.
In fact, it still can crash hard when the bytecode itself is
overwritten. To fix, we'd need a way to skip gathering the
backtrace completely.
This also increases the default stack size on M4s so it can
accomodate the stack needed by ASF4s nvm API.
A new option MICROPY_GC_STACK_ENTRY_TYPE is added to select a custom type
instead of size_t for the gc_stack array items. This can be beneficial for
small devices, especially those that are low on memory anyway. If a device
has 1MB or less of heap (and 16-byte GC blocks) then this type can be
uint16_t, saving 128 bytes of RAM.
This adds support for the OSError attributes : errno, strerror, filename and filename2.
CPython only sets errno if 2 arguments has been passed in. This has not been implemented here.
CPython OSError.args is capped at 2 items for backward compatibility reasons. This has not been
implemented here.
MICROPY_CPYTHON_COMPAT has to be enabled to get these attributes.
mp_common_errno_to_str() has been extended to check mp_errno_to_str() as well. This is done to ease
reuse for the strerror argument.
There was an assumption that all names in a module dict are qstr's.
However, they can be dynamically generated (by assigning to globals()),
and in case of a long name, it won't be a qstr. Handle this situation
properly, including taking care of not creating superfluous qstr's for
names starting with "_" (which aren't imported by "import *").
Taking the address of a local variable is mildly expensive, in code size
and stack usage. So optimise scope_find_or_add_id() to not need to take a
pointer to the "added" variable, and instead take the kind to use for newly
added identifiers.
This ensures that implicit variables are only converted to implicit
closed-over variables (nonlocals) at the very end of the function scope.
If variables are closed-over when first used (read from, as was done prior
to this commit) then this can be incorrect because the variable may be
assigned to later on in the function which means they are just a plain
local, not closed over.
Fixes issue #4272.
Building axtls gives a lot of warnings with -Wall enabled, and explicitly
disabling all of them cannot be done in a way compatible with gcc and
clang, and likely other compilers. So just use -Wno-all to prevent all of
the extra warnings (in addition to the necessary -Wno-unused-parameter,
-Wno-uninitialized, -Wno-sign-compare and -Wno-old-style-definition).
Fixes issue #4182.
Configurable via MICROPY_MODULE_GETATTR, disabled by default. Among other
things __getattr__ for modules can help to build lazy loading / code
unloading at runtime.
Configurable via MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_STR_COUNT. Default is enabled.
Disabled for bare-arm, minimal, unix-minimal and zephyr ports. Disabling
it saves 408 bytes on x86.
So these constant objects can be loaded by dereferencing the REG_FUN_TABLE
pointer instead of loading immediate values. This reduces the size of
generated native code (when such constants are used), and means that
pointers to these constants are no longer stored in the assembly code.
The maximum index into mp_fun_table is currently less than 1024 and should
stay that way to keep things efficient for all architectures, so there is
no need to handle loading the pointer directly via a literal in this
function.
All architectures now have a dedicated register to hold the pointer to the
native function table mp_fun_table, and so they all need to load this
register at the start of the native function. This commit makes the
loading of this register uniform across architectures by passing the
pointer in the constant table for the native function, and then loading the
register from the constant table. Doing it this way means that the pointer
is not stored in the assembly code, helping to make the code more portable.
Instead of storing the function pointer directly in the assembly code.
This makes the generated code more independent of the runtime (so easier to
relocate the code), and reduces the generated code size.
The esp register is always a fixed distance below ebp, and using esp to
reference locals on the stack frees up the ebp register for general purpose
use (which is important for an architecture with only 8 user registers).
Instead of storing the function pointer directly in the assembly code.
This makes the generated code more independent of the runtime (so easier to
relocate the code), and reduces the generated code size.
The rsp register is always a fixed distance below rbp, and using rsp to
reference locals on the stack frees up the rbp register for general purpose
use.
Add traceback chain to sys.exec_info()[2].
No actual frame info is added, but just enough to recreate the printed
exception traceback.
Used by the unittest module which collects errors and failures and prints
them at the end.
This gives access to the function underlying the bound method.
Used in the converted CPython stdlib logging.Formatter class to handle
overrriding a default converter method bound to a class variable.
The method becomes bound when accessed from an instance of that class.
I didn't investigate why CircuitPython turns it into a bound method.
This commit adds first class support for yield and yield-from in the native
emitter, including send and throw support, and yields enclosed in exception
handlers (which requires pulling down the NLR stack before yielding, then
rebuilding it when resuming).
This has been fully tested and is working on unix x86 and x86-64, and
stm32. Also basic tests have been done with the esp8266 port. Performance
of existing native code is unchanged.
The nlr_buf_t doesn't need to be part of the Python value stack (as it was
before this commit), it's simpler to have it separated as auxiliary state
that lives on the C stack. This will help adding yield support because in
that case the nlr_buf_t and Python value stack live in separate memory
areas (C stack and heap respectively).
Instead of at end of state, n_state - 1. It was originally (way back in
v1.0) put at the end of the state because the VM didn't have a pointer to
the start. But now that the VM takes a mp_code_state_t pointer it does
have a pointer to the start of the state so can put the exception object
there.
This commit saves about 30 bytes of code on all architectures, and, more
importantly, reduces C-stack usage by a couple of words (8 bytes on Thumb2
and 16 bytes on x86-64) for every (non-generator) call of a bytecode
function because fun_bc_call no longer needs to remember the n_state
variable.
This makes these special methods have the same calling behaviour as other
methods in a class instance (mp_convert_member_lookup() is already called
by mp_obj_class_lookup()).
And remove related comment about needing such protection when calling send.
Reasoning for removal is as follows:
- mp_resume is only called by the VM in YIELD_FROM opcode
- if send_value != MP_OBJ_NULL then throw_value == MP_OBJ_NULL
- so if __next__ or send are called then throw_value == MP_OBJ_NULL
- if __next__ or send raise an exception without nlr protection then the
exception will be handled by the global exception handler of the VM
- this handler already has code to handle exceptions raised in YIELD_FROM,
including correct handling of StopIteration
- this handler doesn't handle the case of injection of GeneratorExit, but
this won't be needed because throw_value == MP_OBJ_NULL
Note that it's already possible for mp_resume() to raise an exception
(including StopIteration) from the unprotected call to type->iternext(), so
that's why the VM already has code to handle the case of exceptions coming
out of mp_resume().
This commit reduces code size by a bit, and significantly reduces C stack
usage when using yield-from, from 88 bytes down to 40 for Thumb2, and 152
down to 72 bytes for x86-64 (better than half). (Note that gcc doesn't
seem to tail-call optimise the call from mp_resume() to mp_obj_gen_resume()
so this saving in C stack usage helps all uses of yield-from.)
mp_make_raise_obj must be used to convert a possible exception type to an
instance object, otherwise the VM may raise a non-exception object.
An existing test is adjusted to test this case, with the original test
already moved to generator_throw.py.
This matches how bytecode does it, and matches the signature of
mp_emit_glue_assign_native. Since the native emitter doesn't support
nan-boxing uintptr_t and mp_uint_t are anyway the same bit-width.
After the previous commit this macro is no longer needed by the native
emitter because live heap pointers are no longer stored in generated native
machine code.
This commit changes native code to handle constant objects like bytecode:
instead of storing the pointers inside the native code they are now stored
in a separate constant table (such pointers include objects like bignum,
bytes, and raw code for nested functions). This removes the need for the
GC to scan native code for root pointers, and takes a step towards making
native code independent of the runtime (eg so it can be compiled offline by
mpy-cross).
Note that the changes to the struct scope_t did not increase its size: on a
32-bit architecture it is still 48 bytes, and on a 64-bit architecture it
decreased from 80 to 72 bytes.
Nan and inf (signed and unsigned) are also handled correctly by using
signbit (they were also handled correctly with "val<0", but that didn't
handle -0.0 correctly). A test case is added for this behaviour.
When obj.h is compiled as C++ code, the cl compiler emits a warning about
possibly unsafe mixing of size_t and bool types in the or operation in
MP_OBJ_FUN_MAKE_SIG. Similarly there's an implicit narrowing integer
conversion in runtime.h. This commit fixes this by being explicit.
This is an improvement over previous behavior when str was returned for
both str and bytes input format. This new behaviour is also consistent
with how the % operator works, as well as many other str/bytes methods.
It should be noted that it's not how current versions of CPython work,
where there's a gap in the functionality and bytes.format() is not
supported.
This commit adds the math.factorial function in two variants:
- squared difference, which is faster than the naive version, relatively
compact, and non-recursive;
- a mildly optimised recursive version, faster than the above one.
There are some more optimisations that could be done, but they tend to take
more code, and more storage space. The recursive version seems like a
sensible compromise.
The new function is disabled by default, and uses the non-optimised version
by default if it is enabled. The options are MICROPY_PY_MATH_FACTORIAL
and MICROPY_OPT_MATH_FACTORIAL.
This patches avoids multiplying with negative powers-of-10 when parsing
floating-point values, when those powers-of-10 can be exactly represented
as a positive power. When represented as a positive power and used to
divide, the resulting float will not have any rounding errors.
The issue is that mp_parse_num_decimal will sometimes not give the closest
floating representation of the input string. Eg for "0.3", which can't be
represented exactly in floating point, mp_parse_num_decimal gives a
slightly high (by 1LSB) result. This is because it computes the answer as
3 * 0.1, and since 0.1 also can't be represented exactly, multiplying by 3
multiplies up the rounding error in the 0.1. Computing it as 3 / 10, as
now done by the change in this commit, gives an answer which is as close to
the true value of "0.3" as possible.
This commit implements PEP479 which disallows raising StopIteration inside
a generator to signal that it should be finished. Instead, the generator
should simply return when it is complete.
See https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0479/ for details.
In 0e80f345f8 the inplace operations __iadd__
and __isub__ were made unconditionally available, so the comment about this
section is changed to reflect that.
Loading a pointer by indexing into the native function table mp_fun_table,
rather than loading an immediate value (via a PC-relative load), uses less
code space.
This commit makes viper functions have the same signature as native
functions, at the level of the emitter/assembler. This means that viper
functions can now be wrapped in the same uPy object as native functions.
Viper functions are now responsible for parsing their arguments (before it
was done by the runtime), and this makes calling them more efficient (in
most cases) because the viper entry code can be custom generated to suit
the signature of the function.
This change also opens the way forward for viper functions to take
arbitrary numbers of arguments, and for them to handle globals correctly,
among other things.
Now that the compiler can store the results of the viper types in the
scope, the viper parameter annotation compilation stage can be merged with
the normal parameter compilation stage.
With 5 arguments to mp_arg_check_num(), some architectures need to pass
values on the stack. So compressing n_args_min, n_args_max, takes_kw into
a single word and passing only 3 arguments makes the call more efficient,
because almost all calls to this function pass in constant values. Code
size is also reduced by a decent amount:
bare-arm: -116
minimal x86: -64
unix x64: -256
unix nanbox: -112
stm32: -324
cc3200: -192
esp8266: -192
esp32: -144
Prior to this commit a function compiled with the native decorator
@micropython.native would not work correctly when accessing global
variables, because the globals dict was not being set upon function entry.
This commit fixes this problem by, upon function entry, setting as the
current globals dict the globals dict context the function was defined
within, as per normal Python semantics, and as bytecode does. Upon
function exit the original globals dict is restored.
In order to restore the globals dict when an exception is raised the native
function must guard its internals with an nlr_push/nlr_pop pair. Because
this push/pop is relatively expensive, in both C stack usage for the
nlr_buf_t and CPU execution time, the implementation here optimises things
as much as possible. First, the compiler keeps track of whether a function
even needs to access global variables. Using this information the native
emitter then generates three different kinds of code:
1. no globals used, no exception handlers: no nlr handling code and no
setting of the globals dict.
2. globals used, no exception handlers: an nlr_buf_t is allocated on the
C stack but it is not used if the globals dict is unchanged, saving
execution time because nlr_push/nlr_pop don't need to run.
3. function has exception handlers, may use globals: an nlr_buf_t is
allocated and nlr_push/nlr_pop are always called.
In the end, native functions that don't access globals and don't have
exception handlers will run more efficiently than those that do.
Fixes issue #1573.
If bytearray is constructed from str, a second argument of encoding is
required (in CPython), and third arg of Unicode error handling is allowed,
e.g.:
bytearray("str", "utf-8", "strict")
This is similar to bytes:
bytes("str", "utf-8", "strict")
This patch just allows to pass 2nd/3rd arguments to bytearray, but
doesn't try to validate them to not impact code size. (This is also
similar to how bytes constructor is handled, though it does a bit
more validation, e.g. check that in case of str arg, encoding argument
is passed.)
This removes the need for a separate axtls build stage, and builds all
axtls object files along with other code. This simplifies and cleans up
the build process, automatically builds axtls when needed, and puts the
axtls object files in the correct $(BUILD) location.
The MicroPython axtls configuration file is provided in
extmod/axtls-include/config.h
This patch adds full support for unwinding jumps to the native emitter.
This means that return/break/continue can be used in try-except,
try-finally and with statements. For code that doesn't use unwinding jumps
there is almost no overhead added to the generated code.
The native emitter keeps the current exception in a slot in its C stack
(instead of on its Python value stack), so when it catches an exception it
must explicitly clear that slot so the same exception is not reraised later
on.
Back in 8047340d75 basic support was added in
the VM to handle return statements within a finally block. But it didn't
cover all cases, in particular when some finally's were active and others
inactive when the "return" was executed.
This patch adds further support for return-within-finally by correctly
managing the currently_in_except_block flag, and should fix all cases. The
main point is that finally handlers remain on the exception stack even if
they are active (currently being executed), and the unwind return code
should only execute those finally's which are inactive.
New tests are added for the cases which now pass.
This reverts commit 869024dd6e.
Ctrl-C stopped producing KeyboardInterrupt with this change on CircuitPython.
The Unix and stm32 ports handles Ctrl-C differently with a handler which is
probably why they where not affected.
Fixes#1092
This saves code space in builds which use link-time optimization.
The optimization drops the untranslated strings and replaces them
with a compressed_string_t struct. It can then be decompressed to
a c string.
Builds without LTO work as well but include both untranslated
strings and compressed strings.
This work could be expanded to include QSTRs and loaded strings if
a compress method is added to C. Its tracked in #531.
Prior to this patch, native code would use a full nlr_buf_t for each
exception handler (try-except, try-finally, with). For nested exception
handlers this would use a lot of C stack and be rather inefficient.
This patch changes how exceptions are handled in native code by setting up
only a single nlr_buf_t context for the entire function, and then manages a
state machine (using the PC) to work out which exception handler to run
when an exception is raised by an nlr_jump. This keeps the C stack usage
at a constant level regardless of the depth of Python exception blocks.
The patch also fixes an existing bug when local variables are written to
within an exception handler, then their value was incorrectly restored if
an exception was raised (since the nlr_jump would restore register values,
back to the point of the nlr_push).
And it also gets nested try-finally+with working with the viper emitter.
Broadly speaking, efficiency of executing native code that doesn't use
any exception blocks is unchanged, and emitted code size is only slightly
increased for such function. C stack usage of all native functions is
either equal or less than before. Emitted code size for native functions
that use exception blocks is increased by roughly 10% (due in part to
fixing of above-mentioned bugs).
But, most importantly, this patch allows to implement more Python features
in native code, like unwind jumps and yielding from within nested exception
blocks.
These POSIX wrappers are assumed to be passed a concrete stream object so
it is more efficient (eg on nan-boxing builds) to pass in the pointer
rather than mp_obj_t, because then the users of these functions only need
to store a void* (and mp_obj_t may be wider than a pointer). And things
would be further improved if the stream protocol functions eventually took
a pointer as their first argument (instead of an mp_obj_t).
This patch is a step to getting ussl/axtls compiling on nan-boxing builds.
See issue #3085.
Otherwise there is the possibility that n_free starts out non-zero from the
previous iteration, which may have found a few (but not enough) free blocks
at the end of the heap. If this is the case, and if the very first blocks
that are scanned the second time around (starting at
gc_last_free_atb_index) are found to give enough memory (including the
blocks at the end of the heap from the previous iteration that left n_free
non-zero) then memory will be allocated starting before the location that
gc_last_free_atb_index points to, most likely leading to corruption.
This serious bug did not manifest itself in the past because a gc_collect
always resets gc_last_free_atb_index to point to the start of the GC heap,
and the first block there is almost always allocated to a long-lived
object (eg entries from sys.path, or mounted filesystem objects), which
means that n_free would be reset at the start of the search loop.
But with threading enabled with the GIL disabled it is possible to trigger
the bug via the following sequence of events:
1. Thread A runs gc_alloc, fails to find enough memory, and has a non-zero
n_free at the end of the search.
2. Thread A calls gc_collect and frees a bunch of blocks on the GC heap.
3. Just after gc_collect finishes in thread A, thread B takes gc_mutex and
does an allocation, moving gc_last_free_atb_index to point to the
interior of the heap, to a place where there is most likely a run of
available blocks.
4. Thread A regains gc_mutex and does its second search for free memory,
starting with a non-zero n_free. Since it's likely that the first block
it searches is available it will allocate memory which overlaps with the
memory before gc_last_free_atb_index.
Without this patch, on 64-bit architectures the "1 << (small_int_bits - 1)"
is computed using only 32-bit values (since small_int_bits is a uint8_t)
and so will overflow (and give the wrong result) if small_int_bits is
larger than 32.
There is no need to have three copies of the exception object on the top of
the native value stack. Instead, the values on the stack should be the
first two items in an nlr_buf_t: the prev pointer and the ret_val pointer.
This is all that is needed and is what the rest of the native emitter
expects is on the stack.
This patch is essentially an optimisation. Behaviour is unchanged,
although the stack layout for native exception handling now makes more
sense.
A native function allocates space on its C stack for mp_code_state_t,
followed by its Python stack, then its locals. This patch makes sure that
the native function actually starts at the start of its Python stack,
rather than at the start of mp_code_state_t (which didn't lead to any
issues so far because the mp_code_state_t is unused after the native
function sets itself up).
On x86 archs (both 32 and 64 bit) a bool return value only sets the 8-bit
al register, and the higher bits of the ax register have an undefined
value. When testing the return value of such cases it is required to just
test al for zero/non-zero. On the other hand, checking for truth or
zero/non-zero on an integer return value requires checking all bits of the
register. These two cases must be distinguished and handled correctly in
generated native code. This patch makes sure of this.
For other supported native archs (ARM, Thumb2, Xtensa) there is no such
distinction and this patch does not change anything for them.
DEBUG_printf and MICROPY_DEBUG_PRINTER is now used instead of normal
printf, and a fault is fixed in mp_obj_class_lookup with debugging enabled;
see issue #3999. Debugging can now be enabled on all ports including when
nan-boxing is used.
This patch in effect renames MICROPY_DEBUG_PRINTER_DEST to
MICROPY_DEBUG_PRINTER, moving its default definition from
lib/utils/printf.c to py/mpconfig.h to make it official and documented, and
makes this macro a pointer rather than the actual mp_print_t struct. This
is done to get consistency with MICROPY_ERROR_PRINTER, and provide this
macro for use outside just lib/utils/printf.c.
Ports are updated to use the new macro name.
This patch makes the Thumb-2 native emitter use wide ldr instructions to
call into the runtime, when the index into the native glue function table
is 32 or greater. This reduces the generated assembler code from 10 bytes
to 6 bytes, saving RAM and making native code run about 0.8% faster.
This error message did not consume all of its variable args, a bug
introduced long ago in baf6f14deb. By fixing
it to use %s (instead of keeping the string as-is and deleting the last
arg) the same error message string is now reused three times in this format
function and gives a code size reduction of around 130 bytes. It also now
gives a better error message when a non-string is passed in as an argument
to format, eg '{:d}'.format([]).
There's no need to call mp_obj_new_int() which will just fail the check for
small int and call mp_obj_new_int_from_ll() anyway.
Thanks to @Jongy for prompting this change.
In non-debug mode MP_OBJ_STOP_ITERATION is zero and comparing something to
zero can be done more efficiently in assembler than comparing to a non-zero
value.
With the recent change b488a4a848, a
generating function now has the same layout in memory as a normal bytecode
function, and so can reuse the latter's attribute accessor code to
implement __name__.
Because this function is simple it saves code size to have it inlined.
Being an auxiliary helper function (and only used in the py/ core) the
argument should always be an mp_obj_module_t*, so there's no need for the
assert (and having it would require including assert.h in obj.h).
