Alexander Steffen 55f33240f3 all: Use the name MicroPython consistently in comments
There were several different spellings of MicroPython present in comments,
when there should be only one.

Damien George dd11af209d py: Add LOAD_SUPER_METHOD bytecode to allow heap-free super meth calls.
This patch allows the following code to run without allocating on the heap:

    super().foo(...)

Before this patch such a call would allocate a super object on the heap and
then load the foo method and call it right away.  The super object is only
needed to perform the lookup of the method and not needed after that.  This
patch makes an optimisation to allocate the super object on the C stack and
discard it right after use.

Changes in code size due to this patch are:

   bare-arm: +128
    minimal: +232
   unix x64: +416
unix nanbox: +364
     stmhal: +184
    esp8266: +340
     cc3200: +128

Damien George f4df3aaa72 py: Allow bytecode/native to put iter_buf on stack for simple for loops.
So that the "for x in it: ..." statement can now work without using the
heap (so long as the iterator argument fits in an iter_buf structure).

Damien George adaf0d865c py: Combine 3 comprehension opcodes (list/dict/set) into 1.
With the previous patch combining 3 emit functions into 1, it now makes
sense to also combine the corresponding VM opcodes, which is what this
patch does.  This eliminates 2 opcodes which simplifies the VM and reduces
code size, in bytes: bare-arm:44, minimal:64, unix(NDEBUG,x86-64):272,
stmhal:92, esp8266:200.  Profiling (with a simple script that creates many
list/dict/set comprehensions) shows no measurable change in performance.

Damien George 3ff16ff52e py: Declare constant data as properly constant.
Otherwise some compilers (eg without optimisation) will put this read-only
data in RAM instead of ROM.

Damien George bdbe8c9ae2 py: Make UNARY_OP_NOT a first-class op, to agree with Py not semantics.
Fixes #1684 and makes "not" match Python semantics.  The code is also
simplified (the separate MP_BC_NOT opcode is removed) and the patch saves
68 bytes for bare-arm/ and 52 bytes for minimal/.

Previously "not x" was implemented as !mp_unary_op(x, MP_UNARY_OP_BOOL),
so any given object only needs to implement MP_UNARY_OP_BOOL (and the VM
had a special opcode to do the ! bit).

With this patch "not x" is implemented as mp_unary_op(x, MP_UNARY_OP_NOT),
but this operation is caught at the start of mp_unary_op and dispatched as
!mp_obj_is_true(x).  mp_obj_is_true has special logic to test for
truthness, and is the correct way to handle the not operation.

Damien George 59fba2d6ea py: Remove mp_load_const_bytes and instead load precreated bytes object.
Previous to this patch each time a bytes object was referenced a new
instance (with the same data) was created.  With this patch a single
bytes object is created in the compiler and is loaded directly at execute
time as a true constant (similar to loading bignum and float objects).
This saves on allocating RAM and means that bytes objects can now be
used when the memory manager is locked (eg in interrupts).

The MP_BC_LOAD_CONST_BYTES bytecode was removed as part of this.

Generated bytecode is slightly larger due to storing a pointer to the
bytes object instead of the qstr identifier.

Code size is reduced by about 60 bytes on Thumb2 architectures.

Damien George c5029bcbf3 py: Add MP_BINARY_OP_DIVMOD to simplify and consolidate divmod builtin. 2015-06-13 23:36:30 +01:00
Damien George c2a4e4effc py: Convert hash API to use MP_UNARY_OP_HASH instead of ad-hoc function.
Hashing is now done using mp_unary_op function with MP_UNARY_OP_HASH as
the operator argument.  Hashing for int, str and bytes still go via
fast-path in mp_unary_op since they are the most common objects which
need to be hashed.

This lead to quite a bit of code cleanup, and should be more efficient
if anything.  It saves 176 bytes code space on Thumb2, and 360 bytes on
x86.

The only loss is that the error message "unhashable type" is now the
more generic "unsupported type for __hash__".

Damien George 8872abcbc4 py: Remove LOAD_CONST_ELLIPSIS bytecode, use LOAD_CONST_OBJ instead.
Ellipsis constant is rarely used so no point having an extra bytecode
for it.

Damien George 7d414a1b52 py: Parse big-int/float/imag constants directly in parser.
Previous to this patch, a big-int, float or imag constant was interned
(made into a qstr) and then parsed at runtime to create an object each
time it was needed.  This is wasteful in RAM and not efficient.  Now,
these constants are parsed straight away in the parser and turned into
objects.  This allows constants with large numbers of digits (so
addresses issue #1103) and takes us a step closer to #722.

Damien George dab1385177 py: Add load_const_obj to emitter, add LOAD_CONST_OBJ to bytecode.
This allows to directly load a Python object to the Python stack.  See
issue #722 for background.

Damien George 83204f3406 py: Allow to properly disable builtin slice operation.
This patch makes the MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_SLICE compile-time option
fully disable the builtin slice operation (when set to 0).  This
includes removing the slice sytanx from the grammar.  Now, enabling
slice costs 4228 bytes on unix x64, and 1816 bytes on stmhal.

Damien George e37dcaafb4 py: Allow to properly disable builtin "set" object.
This patch makes MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_SET compile-time option fully
disable the builtin set object (when set to 0).  This includes removing
set constructor/comprehension from the grammar, the compiler and the
emitters.  Now, enabling set costs 8168 bytes on unix x64, and 3576
bytes on stmhal.

Damien George 8456cc017b py: Compress load-int, load-fast, store-fast, unop, binop bytecodes.
There is a lot potential in compress bytecodes and make more use of the
coding space.  This patch introduces "multi" bytecodes which have their
argument included in the bytecode (by addition).

UNARY_OP and BINARY_OP now no longer take a 1 byte argument for the
opcode.  Rather, the opcode is included in the first byte itself.

LOAD_FAST_[0,1,2] and STORE_FAST_[0,1,2] are removed in favour of their
multi versions, which can take an argument between 0 and 15 inclusive.
The majority of LOAD_FAST/STORE_FAST codes fit in this range and so this
saves a byte for each of these.

LOAD_CONST_SMALL_INT_MULTI is used to load small ints between -16 and 47
inclusive.  Such ints are quite common and now only need 1 byte to
store, and now have much faster decoding.

In all this patch saves about 2% RAM for typically bytecode (1.8% on
64-bit test, 2.5% on pyboard test).  It also reduces the binary size
(because bytecodes are simplified) and doesn't harm performance.

Damien George 04b9147e15 Add license header to (almost) all files.
Blanket wide to all .c and .h files.  Some files originating from ST are
difficult to deal with (license wise) so it was left out of those.

Also merged modpyb.h, modos.h, modstm.h and modtime.h in stmhal/.

It's the same as LOAD_CONST_STR.

Damien George 5f6a25fc50 py: Wrap #if's around emitter functions that are used only by emitcpy.
3 emitter functions are needed only for emitcpy, and so we can #if them
out when compiling with emitcpy support.

Also remove unused SETUP_LOOP bytecode.
