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.
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.
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.
These macros could in principle be (inline) functions so it makes sense to
have them lower case, to match the other C API functions.
The remaining macros that are upper case are:
- MP_OBJ_TO_PTR, MP_OBJ_FROM_PTR
- MP_OBJ_NEW_SMALL_INT, MP_OBJ_SMALL_INT_VALUE
- MP_OBJ_NEW_QSTR, MP_OBJ_QSTR_VALUE
- MP_OBJ_FUN_MAKE_SIG
- MP_DECLARE_CONST_xxx
- MP_DEFINE_CONST_xxx
These must remain macros because they are used when defining const data (at
least, MP_OBJ_NEW_SMALL_INT is so it makes sense to have
MP_OBJ_SMALL_INT_VALUE also a macro).
For those macros that have been made lower case, compatibility macros are
provided for the old names so that users do not need to change their code
immediately.
There was an assumption that all names in a module dict are qstr's.
However, they can be dynamically generated (by assigning to globals()),
and in case of a long name, it won't be a qstr. Handle this situation
properly, including taking care of not creating superfluous qstr's for
names starting with "_" (which aren't imported by "import *").
And remove related comment about needing such protection when calling send.
Reasoning for removal is as follows:
- mp_resume is only called by the VM in YIELD_FROM opcode
- if send_value != MP_OBJ_NULL then throw_value == MP_OBJ_NULL
- so if __next__ or send are called then throw_value == MP_OBJ_NULL
- if __next__ or send raise an exception without nlr protection then the
exception will be handled by the global exception handler of the VM
- this handler already has code to handle exceptions raised in YIELD_FROM,
including correct handling of StopIteration
- this handler doesn't handle the case of injection of GeneratorExit, but
this won't be needed because throw_value == MP_OBJ_NULL
Note that it's already possible for mp_resume() to raise an exception
(including StopIteration) from the unprotected call to type->iternext(), so
that's why the VM already has code to handle the case of exceptions coming
out of mp_resume().
This commit reduces code size by a bit, and significantly reduces C stack
usage when using yield-from, from 88 bytes down to 40 for Thumb2, and 152
down to 72 bytes for x86-64 (better than half). (Note that gcc doesn't
seem to tail-call optimise the call from mp_resume() to mp_obj_gen_resume()
so this saving in C stack usage helps all uses of yield-from.)
There's no need to call mp_obj_new_int() which will just fail the check for
small int and call mp_obj_new_int_from_ll() anyway.
Thanks to @Jongy for prompting this change.
mp_obj_module_get_globals() returns a mp_obj_dict_t*, and type->locals_dict
is a mp_obj_dict_t*, so access the map entry of the dict directly instead
of needing to cast this mp_obj_dict_t* up to an object and then calling the
mp_obj_dict_get_map() helper function.
This patch changes dupterm to call the native C stream methods on the
connected stream objects, instead of calling the Python readinto/write
methods. This is much more efficient for native stream objects like UART
and webrepl and doesn't require allocating a special dupterm array.
This change is a minor breaking change from the user's perspective because
dupterm no longer accepts pure user stream objects to duplicate on. But
with the recent addition of uio.IOBase it is possible to still create such
classes just by inheriting from uio.IOBase, for example:
import uio, uos
class MyStream(uio.IOBase):
def write(self, buf):
# existing write implementation
def readinto(self, buf):
# existing readinto implementation
uos.dupterm(MyStream())
This new helper function acts like mp_load_method_maybe but is wrapped in
an NLR handler so it can catch exceptions. It prevents AttributeError from
propagating out, and optionally all other exceptions. This helper can be
used to fully implement hasattr (see follow-up commit), and also for cases
where mp_load_method_maybe is used but it must now raise an exception.
Without the compiler enabled the mp_optimise_value is unused, and the
micropython.opt_level() function is not useful, so exclude these from the
build to save RAM and code size.
