The idea that --list-tests would be enough to produce list of tests for
tinytest-codegen didn't work, because normal run-tests processing heavily
relies on dynamic target capabilities discovery, and test filtering happens
as the result of that.
So, approach the issue from different end - allow to specify arbitrary
filtering criteria as run-tests arguments. This way, specific filters
will be still hardcoded, but at least on a particular target's side,
instead of constant patching tinytest-codegen and/or run-tests.
Lists tests to be executed, subject to all other filters requested. This
options would be useful e.g. for scripts like tools/tinytest-codegen.py,
which currently contains hardcoded filters for particular a particular
target and can't work for multiple targets.
"Builtin" tinytest-based testsuite as employed by qemu-arm (and now
generalized by me to be reusable for other targets) performs simplified
detection of skipped tests, it treats as such tests which raised SystemExit
(instead of checking got "SKIP" output). Consequently, each "SKIP" must
be accompanied by SystemExit (and conversely, SystemExit should not be
used if test is not skipped, which so far seems to be true).
These tests involves testing allocation-free function calling, and in strict
stackless mode, it's not possible to make a function call with heap locked
(because function activation record aka frame is allocated on the heap).
In strict stackless mode, it's not possible to make a function call with
heap locked (because function activation record aka frame is allocated on
heap). So, if the only purpose of function is to introduce local variable
scope, move heap lock/unlock calls inside the function.
This patch improves parsing of floating point numbers by converting all the
digits (integer and fractional) together into a number 1 or greater, and
then applying the correct power of 10 at the very end. In particular the
multiple "multiply by 0.1" operations to build a fraction are now combined
together and applied at the same time as the exponent, at the very end.
This helps to retain precision during parsing of floats, and also includes
a check that the number doesn't overflow during the parsing. One benefit
is that a float will have the same value no matter where the decimal point
is located, eg 1.23 == 123e-2.
Before this patch MP_BINARY_OP_IN had two meanings: coming from bytecode it
meant that the args needed to be swapped, but coming from within the
runtime meant that the args were already in the correct order. This lead
to some confusion in the code and comments stating how args were reversed.
It also lead to 2 bugs: 1) containment for a subclass of a native type
didn't work; 2) the expression "{True} in True" would illegally succeed and
return True. In both of these cases it was because the args to
MP_BINARY_OP_IN ended up being reversed twice.
To fix these things this patch introduces MP_BINARY_OP_CONTAINS which
corresponds exactly to the __contains__ special method, and this is the
operator that built-in types should implement. MP_BINARY_OP_IN is now only
emitted by the compiler and is converted to MP_BINARY_OP_CONTAINS by
swapping the arguments.
