With this patch alignment is done relative to the start of the buffer that
is being unpacked, not the raw pointer value, as per CPython.
Fixes issue #3314.
This commit adds support for sys.settrace, allowing to install Python
handlers to trace execution of Python code. The interface follows CPython
as closely as possible. The feature is disabled by default and can be
enabled via MICROPY_PY_SYS_SETTRACE.
Prior to this patch the line number for a lambda would be "line 1" if the
body of the lambda contained only a simple expression (with no line number
stored in the parse node). Now the line number is always reported
correctly.
mp_compile no longer takes an emit_opt argument, rather this setting is now
provided by the global default_emit_opt variable.
Now, when -X emit=native is passed as a command-line option, the emitter
will be set for all compiled modules (included imports), not just the
top-level script.
In the future there could be a way to also set this variable from a script.
Fixes issue #4267.
With this patch exceptions that are re-raised have improved tracebacks
(less confusing, match CPython), and it makes re-raise slightly more
efficient (in time and RAM) because they no longer need to add a traceback.
Also general VM performance is not measurably affected.
Partially fixes issue #2928.
With this patch exception tracebacks that go through a finally are improved
(less confusing, match CPython), and it makes finally's slightly more
efficient (in time and RAM) because they no longer need to add a traceback.
Partially fixes issue #2928.
It's really an opcode that's not implemented, so use "opcode" instead of
"byte code". And remove the redundant "not implemented" text because that
is already implied by the exception type. There's no need to have a long
error message for an exception that is almost never encountered. Saves
about 20 bytes of code size on most ports.
Enabled via MICROPY_PY_URE_DEBUG, disabled by default (but enabled on unix
coverage build). This is a rarely used feature that costs a lot of code
(500-800 bytes flash). Debugging of regular expressions can be done
offline with other tools.
Recent versions of gcc perform optimisations which can lead to the
following code from the MP_NLR_JUMP_HEAD macro being omitted:
top->ret_val = val; \
MP_NLR_RESTORE_PYSTACK(top); \
*_top_ptr = top->prev; \
This is noticeable (at least) in the unix coverage on x86-64 built with gcc
9.1.0. This is because the nlr_jump function is marked as no-return, so
gcc deduces that the above code has no effect.
Adding MP_UNREACHABLE tells the compiler that the asm code may branch
elsewhere, and so it cannot optimise away the code.
As per PEP 485, this function appeared in for Python 3.5. Configured via
MICROPY_PY_MATH_ISCLOSE which is disabled by default, but enabled for the
ports which already have MICROPY_PY_MATH_SPECIAL_FUNCTIONS enabled.
Prior to this patch the amount of free space in an array (including
bytearray) was not being maintained correctly for the case of slice
assignment which changed the size of the array. Under certain cases (as
encoded in the new test) it was possible that the array could grow beyond
its allocated memory block and corrupt the heap.
Fixes issue #4127.
This patch implements a new sys.atexit function which registers a function
that is later executed when the main script ends. It is configurable via
MICROPY_PY_SYS_ATEXIT, disabled by default.
This is not compliant with CPython, rather it can be used to implement a
CPython compatible "atexit" module if desired (similar to how
sys.print_exception can be used to implement functionality of the
"traceback" module).
This patch adds a simple but powerful hook into the import system, in a
CPython compatible way, by allowing to override builtins.__import__.
This does introduce some overhead to all imports but it's minor:
- the dict lookup of __import__ is bypassed if there are no modifications
to the builtins module (which is the case at start up);
- imports are not performance critical, usually done just at the start of a
script;
- compared to how much work is done in an import, looking up a value in a
dict is a relatively small additional piece of work.
JSON requires that keys of objects be strings. CPython will therefore
automatically quote simple types (NoneType, bool, int, float) when they are
used directly as keys in JSON output. To prevent subtle bugs and emit
compliant JSON, MicroPython should at least test for such keys so they
aren't silently let through. Then doing the actual quoting is a similar
cost to raising an exception, so that's what is implemented by this patch.
Fixes issue #4790.
Behaviour was changed from stack to queue in
8977c7eb58, and this updates variable names
to match. Also updates other references (docs, error messages).
__clear_cache causes a compile error when using clang. Instead use
__builtin___clear_cache which is available under both gcc and clang.
Also replace tabs with spaces in this section of code (introduced by a
previous commit).
This fixes compiling for older architectures (e.g. armv5tej).
According to [1], the limit of R0-R7 for the STR and LDR instructions is
tied to the Thumb instruction set and not any specific processor
architectures.

With both MICROPY_PERSISTENT_CODE_SAVE and MICROPY_PERSISTENT_CODE_LOAD
enabled the code fails to compile, due to undeclared 'n_obj'. If
MICROPY_EMIT_NATIVE is disabled there are more errors due to the use of
undefined fields in mp_raw_code_t.
This patch fixes such compilation by avoiding undefined fields.
MICROPY_EMIT_NATIVE was changed to MICROPY_EMIT_MACHINE_CODE in this file
to match the mp_raw_code_t definition.
These s16-s21 registers are used by gcc so need to be saved. Future
versions of gcc (beyond v9.1.0), or other compilers, may eventually need
additional registers saved/restored.
See issue #4844.
Instead of converting to a small-int at runtime this can be done at compile
time, then we only have a simple comparison during runtime. This reduces
code size on some ports (e.g -4 on qemu-arm, -52 on unix nanbox), and for
others at least doesn't increase code size.
mpy-cross uses MICROPY_DYNAMIC_COMPILER and MICROPY_EMIT_NATIVE but does
not actually need to execute native functions, and does not need
mp_fun_table. This commit makes it so mp_fun_table and all its entries are
not built when MICROPY_DYNAMIC_COMPILER is enabled, significantly reducing
the size of the mpy-cross executable and allowing it to be built on more
machines/OS's.
This ; make Windows compilation fail with GNU makefile 4.2.1. It was added
in 0dc85c9f86 as part of a shell if-
statement, but this if-statement was subsequently removed in
23a693ec2d so the semicolon is not needed.
The variable $(TOUCH) is initialized with the "touch" value in mkenv.mk
like for the other command line tools (rm, echo, cp, mkdir etc). With
this, for example, Windows users can specify the path of touch.exe.
The variable $(CAT) is initialised with the "cat" value in mkenv.mk like
for the other command line tools (rm, echo, cp, mkdir etc). With this,
for example, Windows users can specify the path of cat.exe.
Reuse the implementation for bytes since it works the same way regardless
of the underlying type. This method gets added for CPython compatibility
of bytearray, but to keep the code simple and small array.array now also
has a working decode method, which is non-standard but doesn't hurt.
This allows figuring out the number of bytes in the memoryview object as
len(memview) * memview.itemsize.
The feature is enabled via MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_MEMORYVIEW_ITEMSIZE and is
disabled by default.
Prior to this commit, building the unix port with `DEBUG=1` and
`-finstrument-functions` the compilation would fail with an error like
"control reaches end of non-void function". This change fixes this by
removing the problematic "if (0)" branches. Not all branches affect
compilation, but they are all removed for consistency.
With this change, @micropython.asm_thumb functions will work on standard
ARM processors (that are in ARM state by default), in scripts and
precompiled .mpy files.
Addresses issue #4675.
This system makes it a lot easier to include external libraries as static,
native modules in MicroPython. Simply pass USER_C_MODULES (like
FROZEN_MPY_DIR) as a make parameter.
During make, makemoduledefs.py parses the current builds c files for
MP_REGISTER_MODULE(module_name, obj_module, enabled_define)
These are used to generate a header with the required entries for
"mp_rom_map_elem_t mp_builtin_module_table[]" in py/objmodule.c
This commit adds support for saving and loading .mpy files that contain
native code (native, viper and inline-asm). A lot of the ground work was
already done for this in the form of removing pointers from generated
native code. The changes here are mainly to link in qstr values to the
native code, and change the format of .mpy files to contain native code
blocks (possibly mixed with bytecode).
A top-level summary:
- @micropython.native, @micropython.viper and @micropython.asm_thumb/
asm_xtensa are now allowed in .py files when compiling to .mpy, and they
work transparently to the user.
- Entire .py files can be compiled to native via mpy-cross -X emit=native
and for the most part the generated .mpy files should work the same as
their bytecode version.
- The .mpy file format is changed to 1) specify in the header if the file
contains native code and if so the architecture (eg x86, ARMV7M, Xtensa);
2) for each function block the kind of code is specified (bytecode,
native, viper, asm).
- When native code is loaded from a .mpy file the native code must be
modified (in place) to link qstr values in, just like bytecode (see
py/persistentcode.c:arch_link_qstr() function).
In addition, this now defines a public, native ABI for dynamically loadable
native code generated by other languages, like C.
The new compile-time option is MICROPY_DEBUG_MP_OBJ_SENTINELS, disabled by
default. This is to allow finer control of whether this debugging feature
is enabled or not (because, for example, this setting must be the same for
mpy-cross and the MicroPython main code when using native code generation).
When encoded in the mpy file, if qstr <= QSTR_LAST_STATIC then store two
bytes: 0, static_qstr_id. Otherwise encode the qstr as usual (either with
string data or a reference into the qstr window).
Reduces mpy file size by about 5%.
Instead of emitting two bytes in the bytecode for where the linked qstr
should be written to, it is now replaced by the actual qstr data, or a
reference into the qstr window.
Reduces mpy file size by about 10%.
This is an implementation of a sliding qstr window used to reduce the
number of qstrs stored in a .mpy file. The window size is configured to 32
entries which takes a fixed 64 bytes (16-bits each) on the C stack when
loading/saving a .mpy file. It allows to remember the most recent 32 qstrs
so they don't need to be stored again in the .mpy file. The qstr window
uses a simple least-recently-used mechanism to discard the least recently
used qstr when the window overflows (similar to dictionary compression).
This scheme only needs a single pass to save/load the .mpy file.
Reduces mpy file size by about 25% with a window size of 32.
POP_BLOCK and POP_EXCEPT are now the same, and are always followed by a
JUMP. So this optimisation reduces code size, and RAM usage of bytecode by
two bytes for each try-except handler.
This patch fixes a bug in the VM when breaking within a try-finally. The
bug has to do with executing a break within the finally block of a
try-finally statement. For example:
def f():
for x in (1,):
print('a', x)
try:
raise Exception
finally:
print(1)
break
print('b', x)
f()
Currently in uPy the above code will print:
a 1
1
1
segmentation fault (core dumped) micropython
Not only is there a seg fault, but the "1" in the finally block is printed
twice. This is because when the VM executes a finally block it doesn't
really know if that block was executed due to a fall-through of the try (no
exception raised), or because an exception is active. In particular, for
nested finallys the VM has no idea which of the nested ones have active
exceptions and which are just fall-throughs. So when a break (or continue)
is executed it tries to unwind all of the finallys, when in fact only some
may be active.
It's questionable whether break (or return or continue) should be allowed
within a finally block, because they implicitly swallow any active
exception, but nevertheless it's allowed by CPython (although almost never
used in the standard library). And uPy should at least not crash in such a
case.
The solution here relies on the fact that exception and finally handlers
always appear in the bytecode after the try body.
Note: there was a similar bug with a return in a finally block, but that
was previously fixed in b735208403
Also, to make it possible for ports to provide their own lwipopts.h, the
default include directory of extmod/lwip-include is no longer added and
instead a port should now make sure the correct include directory is
included in the list (can still use extmod/lwip-include).
