These allow to fine-tune the compiler to select whether it optimises
tuple assignments of the form a, b = c, d and a, b, c = d, e, f.
Sensible defaults are provided.
The implementation of these functions is very large (order 4k) and they
are rarely used, so we don't enable them by default.
They are however enabled in stmhal and unix, since we have the room.
It uses RAM and on pyboard we are generally tight on RAM, so disable
this optimisation for general builds. If users need the speed then
they can build their own version. Maybe in the future we can have
different versions of pyboard firmware built with different tradeoffs.
Compiler optimises lookup of module.CONST when enabled (an existing
feature). Disabled by default; enabled for unix, windows, stmhal.
Costs about 100 bytes ROM on stmhal.
This allows to enable mem-info functions in micropython module, even if
MICROPY_MEM_STATS is not enabled. In this case, you get mem_info and
qstr_info but not mem_{total,current,peak}.
This is a simple optimisation inspired by JITing technology: we cache in
the bytecode (using 1 byte) the offset of the last successful lookup in
a map. This allows us next time round to check in that location in the
hash table (mp_map_t) for the desired entry, and if it's there use that
entry straight away. Otherwise fallback to a normal map lookup.
Works for LOAD_NAME, LOAD_GLOBAL, LOAD_ATTR and STORE_ATTR opcodes.
On a few tests it gives >90% cache hit and greatly improves speed of
code.
Disabled by default. Enabled for unix and stmhal ports.
This patch adds a configuration option (MICROPY_CAN_OVERRIDE_BUILTINS)
which, when enabled, allows to override all names within the builtins
module. A builtins override dict is created the first time the user
assigns to a name in the builtins model, and then that dict is searched
first on subsequent lookups. Note that this implementation doesn't
allow deleting of names.
This patch also does some refactoring of builtins code, creating the
modbuiltins.c file.
Addresses issue #959.
This patch also enables non-blocking streams on stmhal port.
One can now make a USB-UART pass-through function:
def pass_through(usb, uart):
while True:
select.select([usb, uart], [], [])
if usb.any():
uart.write(usb.read(256))
if uart.any():
usb.write(uart.read(256))
pass_through(pyb.USB_VCP(), pyb.UART(1, 9600))
os, time, select modules are now prefixed with u, but are still
available (via weak links) as their original names.
ure and ujson now available as re and json via weak links.
As per issue #876, the network module is used to configure NICs
(hardware modules) and configure routing. The usocket module is
supposed to implement the normal Python socket module and selects the
underlying NIC using routing logic.
Right now the routing logic is brain dead: first-initialised,
first-used. And the routing table is just a list of registered NICs.
cc3k and wiznet5k work, but not at the same time due to C name clashes
(to be fixed).
Note that the usocket module has alias socket, so that one can import
socket and it works as normal. But you can also override socket with
your own module, using usocket at the backend.
Pulled in and modified work done by mux/iabdalkader on cc3k driver, from
iabdalkader-cc3k-update branch. That branch was terribly messy and had
too many conflicts to merge neatly.
Allows to create socket objects that support TCP and UDP in server and
client mode. Interface is very close to standard Python socket class,
except bind and accept do not work the same (due to hardware not
supporting them in the usual way).
Not compiled by default. To compile this module, use:
make MICROPY_PY_WIZNET5K=1
These functions are generally 1 machine instruction, and are used in
critical code, so makes sense to have them inline.
Also leave these functions uninverted (ie 0 means enable, 1 means
disable) and provide macro constants if you really need to distinguish
the states. This makes for smaller code as well (combined with
inlining).
Applied to teensy port as well.
Because (for Thumb) a function pointer has the LSB set, pointers to
dynamic functions in RAM (eg native, viper or asm functions) were not
being traced by the GC. This patch is a comprehensive fix for this.
Addresses issue #820.
The user code should call micropython.alloc_emergency_exception_buf(size)
where size is the size of the buffer used to print the argument
passed to the exception.
With the test code from #732, and a call to
micropython.alloc_emergenncy_exception_buf(100) the following error is
now printed:
```python
>>> import heartbeat_irq
Uncaught exception in Timer(4) interrupt handler
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "0://heartbeat_irq.py", line 14, in heartbeat_cb
NameError: name 'led' is not defined
```
With unicode enabled, this patch allows reading a fixed number of
characters from text-mode streams; eg file.read(5) will read 5 unicode
chars, which can made of more than 5 bytes.
For an ASCII stream (ie no chars > 127) it only needs to do 1 read. If
there are lots of non-ASCII chars in a stream, then it needs multiple
reads of the underlying object.
Adds a new test for this case. Enables unicode support by default on
unix and stmhal ports.

Renamed HAL_H to MICROPY_HAL_H. Made stmhal/mphal.h which intends to
define the generic Micro Python HAL, which in stmhal sits above the ST
HAL.
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/.
