This check follows CPython's behaviour, because 'import *' always populates
the globals with the imported names, not locals.
Since it's safe to do this (doesn't lead to a crash or undefined behaviour)
the check is only enabled for MICROPY_CPYTHON_COMPAT.
Fixes issue #5121.
This commit adds the option to use HSE or MSI system clock, and LSE or LSI
RTC clock, on L4 MCUs.
Note that prior to this commit the default clocks on an L4 part were MSI
and LSE. The defaults are now MSI and LSI.
In mpconfigboard.h select the clock source via:
#define MICROPY_HW_RTC_USE_LSE (0) or (1)
#define MICROPY_HW_CLK_USE_HSE (0) or (1)
and the PLLSAI1 N,P,Q,R settings:
#define MICROPY_HW_CLK_PLLSAIN (12)
#define MICROPY_HW_CLK_PLLSAIP (RCC_PLLP_DIV7)
#define MICROPY_HW_CLK_PLLSAIQ (RCC_PLLQ_DIV2)
#define MICROPY_HW_CLK_PLLSAIR (RCC_PLLR_DIV2)
The the nrfx driver is aware of chip specific registers, while
the raw HAL abstraction is not. This driver enables use of NVMC
in non-secure domain for nrf9160.
This patch moves the check for MICROPY_PY_MACHINE_TEMP to come
before the inclusion of nrf_temp.h. The nrf_temp.h depends on
the NRF_TEMP_Type which might not be defined for all nRF devices.
This patch compresses the second part of the bytecode prelude which
contains the source file name, function name, source-line-number mapping
and cell closure information. This part of the prelude now begins with a
single varible length unsigned integer which encodes 2 numbers, being the
byte-size of the following 2 sections in the header: the "source info
section" and the "closure section". After decoding this variable unsigned
integer it's possible to skip over one or both of these sections very
easily.
This scheme saves about 2 bytes for most functions compared to the original
format: one in the case that there are no closure cells, and one because
padding was eliminated.
The start of the bytecode prelude contains 6 numbers telling the amount of
stack needed for the Python values and exceptions, and the signature of the
function. Prior to this patch these numbers were all encoded one after the
other (2x variable unsigned integers, then 4x bytes), but using so many
bytes is unnecessary.
An entropy analysis of around 150,000 bytecode functions from the CPython
standard library showed that the optimal Shannon coding would need about
7.1 bits on average to encode these 6 numbers, compared to the existing 48
bits.
This patch attempts to get close to this optimal value by packing the 6
numbers into a single, varible-length unsigned integer via bit-wise
interleaving. The interleaving scheme is chosen to minimise the average
number of bytes needed, and at the same time keep the scheme simple enough
so it can be implemented without too much overhead in code size or speed.
The scheme requires about 10.5 bits on average to store the 6 numbers.
As a result most functions which originally took 6 bytes to encode these 6
numbers now need only 1 byte (in 80% of cases).
