The use of large literal numbers is a big no-no when it comes to writing
programs which work with different int representations. Also, some checks
are pretty adhoc (e.g using struct module to check for 64-bitness). This
change bases entire detection on sys.maxsize and integer operarions, and
thus more correct, even if longer.
Note that this change doesn't mean that any of these tests can pass with
anything but MPZ - even despite checking for various int representations,
the tests aren't written to be portable among them.
Tests which don't work with small ints are suffixed with _intbig.py. Some
of these may still work with long long ints and need to be reclassified
later.
Previous to this patch any non-interned str/bytes objects would create a
special parse node that held a copy of the str/bytes data. Then in the
compiler this data would be turned into a str/bytes object. This actually
lead to 2 copies of the data, one in the parse node and one in the object.
The parse node's copy of the data would be freed at the end of the compile
stage but nevertheless it meant that the peak memory usage of the
parse/compile stage was higher than it needed to be (by an amount equal to
the number of bytes in all the non-interned str/bytes objects).
This patch changes the behaviour so that str/bytes objects are created
directly in the parser and the object stored in a const-object parse node
(which already exists for bignum, float and complex const objects). This
reduces peak RAM usage of the parse/compile stage, simplifies the parser
and compiler, and reduces code size by about 170 bytes on Thumb2 archs,
and by about 300 bytes on Xtensa archs.
These tests are intended to fail, as they provide a programatic record of
differences between uPy and CPython. They also contain a special comment
at the start of the file which has meta-data describing the difference,
including known causes and known workarounds.
Depending on the thread scheduler, a busy-wait loop can hog the CPU and
make the tests very slow. So convert such loops to loops that have an
explicit sleep, allowing the worker threads to do their job.
This allows using the test runner for other scenarios than just
testing uPy itself.
The principle of comparing either to CPython or else to a .exp
file is really handy but to be able to test custom modules not
built into micropython.exe one needs to be able to specify the
module search path a.k.a MICROPYPATH.
This patch implements support for class methods __delattr__ and __setattr__
for customising attribute access. It is controlled by the config option
MICROPY_PY_DELATTR_SETATTR and is disabled by default.
A few tests still fail on PYBLITE, and that's due to differences in the
available peripheral block numbers on the different MCUs (eg I2C(2)
exists on one, but it's I2C(3) on the other).
This new function controls what happens on a hard-fault:
- debugging disabled: board will do a reset
- debugging enabled: board will print registers and stack and flash LEDs
The default is disabled, ie to do a reset. This is different to previous
behaviour which flashed the LEDs and waited indefinitely.
machine.time_pulse_us() is intended to provide very fine timing, including
while working with signal bursts, where each transition is tracked in row.
Throwing and handling an exception may take too much time and "signal loss".
So instead, in case of a timeout, just return negative value. Cases of
timeout while waiting for initial signal stabilization, and during actual
timing, are recognized.
The documentation is updated accordingly, and rewritten somewhat to clarify
the function behavior.
Updated modbuiltin.c to add conditional support for 3-arg calls to
pow() using MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_POW3 config parameter. Added support in
objint_mpz.c for for optimised implementation.
CPython 3.6 has a few changes that, when run on uPy's test suite, give a
different output to CPython 3.5. uPy currently officially supports the
3.4 language definition, but it's useful to be able to run the test suite
with 3.4/3.5/3.6 versions of CPython. This patch makes such changes to
support 3.6.
If sets are not enabled, set literals lead to SyntaxError during parsing,
so it requires feature_check. Set tests are skipped based on set_*.py
pattern.
