GC for unix/windows builds doesn't make use of the bss section anymore,
so we do not need the (sometimes complicated) build features and code related to it
- Use a single file env.props for defining the main directories used when building.
env.props resolves the base directory and defines overridable output directories,
and is used by all other build files.
- Fix the build currently failing, basically because the preprocessing command for generating
qstrdefs uses different include directories than the build itself does.
(specifically, qstrdefs.h uses #include "py/mpconfig.h" since the fixes for #1022
in 51dfcb4, so we need to use the base directory as include directory, not the py dir itself).
So define a single variable containing the include directories instead and use it where needed.
This patch adds a configuration option (MICROPY_CAN_OVERRIDE_BUILTINS)
which, when enabled, allows to override all names within the builtins
module. A builtins override dict is created the first time the user
assigns to a name in the builtins model, and then that dict is searched
first on subsequent lookups. Note that this implementation doesn't
allow deleting of names.
This patch also does some refactoring of builtins code, creating the
modbuiltins.c file.
Addresses issue #959.
Specifically, at least Ubuntu's i586-mingw32msvc-gcc doesn't supply
__LITTLE_ENDIAN__ and friends. And as it's safe enough to assume that
Windows is only little-endian, then it's defined unconditionally,
instead of duplicating detection logic in py/mpconfig.h (or adding
windows-specific defines to it).
Because (for Thumb) a function pointer has the LSB set, pointers to
dynamic functions in RAM (eg native, viper or asm functions) were not
being traced by the GC. This patch is a comprehensive fix for this.
Addresses issue #820.
- rearrange/add definitions that were not there so it's easier to compare both
- use MICROPY_PY_SYS_PLATFORM in main.c since it's available anyway
- define EWOULDBLOCK, it is missing from ingw32
