The -ansi flag is used for C dialect selection and it is equivalent to -std=c90.
Because it goes right before -std=gnu99 it is ignored as for conflicting flags
GCC always uses the last one.
In order to have more fine-grained control over how builtin functions are
constructed, the MP_DECLARE_CONST_FUN_OBJ macros are made more specific,
with suffix of _0, _1, _2, _3, _VAR, _VAR_BETEEN or _KW. These names now
match the MP_DEFINE_CONST_FUN_OBJ macros.
This new config option allows to control whether MicroPython uses its own
internal printf or not (if not, an external one should be linked in).
Accompanying this new option is the inclusion of lib/utils/printf.c in the
core list of source files, so that ports no longer need to include it
themselves.
This type was used only for the typedef of mp_obj_t, which is now defined
by the object representation. So we can now remove this unused typedef,
to simplify the mpconfigport.h file.
Minimal support code for a Cortex-M CPU is added, along with set-up
code for an STM32F4xx MCU, including a UART for a REPL. Tested on
a pyboard. Code size is 77592 bytes.
py/mphal.h contains declarations for generic mp_hal_XXX functions, such
as stdio and delay/ticks, which ports should provide definitions for. A
port will also provide mphalport.h with further HAL declarations.
Scenario: module1 depends on some common file from lib/, so specifies it
in its SRC_MOD, and the same situation with module2, then common file
from lib/ eventually ends up listed twice in $(OBJ), which leads to link
errors.
Make is equipped to deal with such situation easily, quoting the manual:
"The value of $^ omits duplicate prerequisites, while $+ retains them and
preserves their order." So, just use $^ consistently in all link targets.
With this patch parse nodes are allocated sequentially in chunks. This
reduces fragmentation of the heap and prevents waste at the end of
individually allocated parse nodes.
Saves roughly 20% of RAM during parse stage.
The do_str() function is provided essentially as documentation to show
how to compile and execute a string. This patch makes do_str take an
extra arg to specify how the string should be interpreted: either as a
single line (ie from a REPL) or as multiple lines (ie from a file).
Previous to this patch a call such as list.append(1, 2) would lead to a
seg fault. This is because list.append is a builtin method and the first
argument to such methods is always assumed to have the correct type.
Now, when a builtin method is extracted like this it is wrapped in a
checker object which checks the the type of the first argument before
calling the builtin function.
This feature is contrelled by MICROPY_BUILTIN_METHOD_CHECK_SELF_ARG and
is enabled by default.
See issue #1216.
esp8266 port now has working raw and friendly REPL, as well as working
soft reset (CTRL-D at REPL, or raise SystemExit).
tools/pyboard.py now works with esp8266 port.
Previous to this patch the printing mechanism was a bit of a tangled
mess. This patch attempts to consolidate printing into one interface.
All (non-debug) printing now uses the mp_print* family of functions,
mainly mp_printf. All these functions take an mp_print_t structure as
their first argument, and this structure defines the printing backend
through the "print_strn" function of said structure.
Printing from the uPy core can reach the platform-defined print code via
two paths: either through mp_sys_stdout_obj (defined pert port) in
conjunction with mp_stream_write; or through the mp_plat_print structure
which uses the MP_PLAT_PRINT_STRN macro to define how string are printed
on the platform. The former is only used when MICROPY_PY_IO is defined.
With this new scheme printing is generally more efficient (less layers
to go through, less arguments to pass), and, given an mp_print_t*
structure, one can call mp_print_str for efficiency instead of
mp_printf("%s", ...). Code size is also reduced by around 200 bytes on
Thumb2 archs.
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.
To enable parsing constants more efficiently, mp_parse should be allowed
to raise an exception, and mp_compile can already raise a MemoryError.
So these functions need to be protected by an nlr push/pop block.
This patch adds that feature in all places. This allows to simplify how
mp_parse and mp_compile are called: they now raise an exception if they
have an error and so explicit checking is not needed anymore.
Unlike bare-arm, which is mostly intended to show raw interpreter size,
without library and support code dependencies. This port is intended to
be a better base to start new ports, and also will include emulation
build to allow debug some aspects of embedded targets on POSIX systems.
This initial commit is verbatim copy of bare-arm code.
