Add some more POSIX compatibility by adding a d_type field to the
dirent structure and defining corresponding macros so listdir_next
in the unix' port modos.c can use it, end result being uos.ilistdir
now reports the file type.
This value is unused. It was an artifact of early draft design, but
bitfields were optimized to use scalar one-word encoding, to allow
compact encoding of typical multiple bitfields in MCU control
registers.
This test doesn't check the actual I/O behavior, just "static" invariants
like behavior on duplicate calls or calls when I/O object is not registered
with poller.
With this commit there is now only one entry point into the whole
documentation, which describes the general MicroPython language, and then
from there there are links to information about specific platforms/ports.
This commit doesn't change content (almost, it does fix a few internal
links), it just reorganises things.
This commit adds first class support for yield and yield-from in the native
emitter, including send and throw support, and yields enclosed in exception
handlers (which requires pulling down the NLR stack before yielding, then
rebuilding it when resuming).
This has been fully tested and is working on unix x86 and x86-64, and
stm32. Also basic tests have been done with the esp8266 port. Performance
of existing native code is unchanged.
The nlr_buf_t doesn't need to be part of the Python value stack (as it was
before this commit), it's simpler to have it separated as auxiliary state
that lives on the C stack. This will help adding yield support because in
that case the nlr_buf_t and Python value stack live in separate memory
areas (C stack and heap respectively).
Instead of at end of state, n_state - 1. It was originally (way back in
v1.0) put at the end of the state because the VM didn't have a pointer to
the start. But now that the VM takes a mp_code_state_t pointer it does
have a pointer to the start of the state so can put the exception object
there.
This commit saves about 30 bytes of code on all architectures, and, more
importantly, reduces C-stack usage by a couple of words (8 bytes on Thumb2
and 16 bytes on x86-64) for every (non-generator) call of a bytecode
function because fun_bc_call no longer needs to remember the n_state
variable.
This makes these special methods have the same calling behaviour as other
methods in a class instance (mp_convert_member_lookup() is already called
by mp_obj_class_lookup()).
