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.
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.
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.
Instead of emitnative.c having configuration code for each supported
architecture, and then compiling this file multiple times with different
macros defined, this patch adds a file per architecture with the necessary
code to configure the native emitter. These files then #include the
emitnative.c file.
This simplifies emitnative.c (which is already very large), and simplifies
the build system because emitnative.c no longer needs special handling for
compilation and qstr extraction.
All the asm macro names that convert a particular architecture to a generic
interface now follow the convention whereby the "destination" (usually a
register) is specified first.
The code conventions suggest using header guards, but do not define how
those should look like and instead point to existing files. However, not
all existing files follow the same scheme, sometimes omitting header guards
altogether, sometimes using non-standard names, making it easy to
accidentally pick a "wrong" example.
This commit ensures that all header files of the MicroPython project (that
were not simply copied from somewhere else) follow the same pattern, that
was already present in the majority of files, especially in the py folder.
The rules are as follows.
Naming convention:
* start with the words MICROPY_INCLUDED
* contain the full path to the file
* replace special characters with _
In addition, there are no empty lines before #ifndef, between #ifndef and
one empty line before #endif. #endif is followed by a comment containing
the name of the guard macro.
py/grammar.h cannot use header guards by design, since it has to be
included multiple times in a single C file. Several other files also do not
need header guards as they are only used internally and guaranteed to be
included only once:
* MICROPY_MPHALPORT_H
* mpconfigboard.h
* mpconfigport.h
* mpthreadport.h
* pin_defs_*.h
* qstrdefs*.h
This patch gets full function argument passing working with native
emitter. Includes named args, keyword args, default args, var args
and var keyword args. Fully Python compliant.
It reuses the bytecode mp_setup_code_state function to do all the hard
work. This function is slightly adjusted to accommodate native calls,
and the native emitter is forced a bit to emit similar prelude and
code-info as bytecode.
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/.
Improved the Thumb assembler back end. Added many more Thumb
instructions to the inline assembler. Improved parsing of assembler
instructions and arguments. Assembler functions can now be passed the
address of any object that supports the buffer protocol (to get the
address of the buffer). Added an example of how to sum numbers from
an array in assembler.
