2015-11-13py: Add MICROPY_PERSISTENT_CODE_LOAD/SAVE to load/save bytecode.Damien George
MICROPY_PERSISTENT_CODE must be enabled, and then enabling MICROPY_PERSISTENT_CODE_LOAD/SAVE (either or both) will allow loading and/or saving of code (at the moment just bytecode) from/to a .mpy file.
2015-11-13py: Add MICROPY_PERSISTENT_CODE so code can persist beyond the runtime.Damien George
Main changes when MICROPY_PERSISTENT_CODE is enabled are: - qstrs are encoded as 2-byte fixed width in the bytecode - all pointers are removed from bytecode and put in const_table (this includes const objects and raw code pointers) Ultimately this option will enable persistence for not just bytecode but also native code.
2015-11-06py: Adjust object repr C (30-bit stuffed float) to reduce code size.Damien George
This patch adds/subtracts a constant from the 30-bit float representation so that str/qstr representations are favoured: they now have all the high bits set to zero. This makes encoding/decoding qstr strings more efficient (and they are used more often than floats, which are now slightly less efficient to encode/decode). Saves about 300 bytes of code space on Thumb 2 arch.
2015-10-20py: Add object repr "C", where 30-bit floats are stuffed in obj word.Damien George
This new object representation puts floats into the object word instead of on the heap, at the expense of reducing their precision to 30 bits. It only makes sense when the word size is 32-bits.
2015-10-16py: Add option for inline assembler to support ARMv7-M instructions.Damien George
Cortex-M0, M0+ and M1 only have ARMv6-M Thumb/Thumb2 instructions. M3, M4 and M7 have a superset of these, named ARMv7-M. This patch adds a config option to enable support of the superset of instructions.
2015-10-15py: Remove dependency on printf/fwrite in mp_plat_print.Damien George
See issue #1500.
2015-10-12py: Add support to call __init__ from a builtin module on first import.Damien George
2015-10-12py: Move constant folding from compiler to parser.Damien George
It makes much more sense to do constant folding in the parser while the parse tree is being built. This eliminates the need to create parse nodes that will just be folded away. The code is slightly simpler and a bit smaller as well. Constant folding now has a configuration option, MICROPY_COMP_CONST_FOLDING, which is enabled by default.
2015-10-06modussl: SSL socket wrapper module based on axTLS.Paul Sokolovsky
2015-10-02py: Allocate parse nodes in chunks to reduce fragmentation and RAM use.Damien George
With this patch parse nodes are allocated sequentially in chunks. This reduces fragmentation of the heap and prevents waste at the end of individually allocated parse nodes. Saves roughly 20% of RAM during parse stage.
2015-09-15py/objslice: Make slice attributes (start/stop/step) readable.Tom Soulanille
Configurable with MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_SLICE_ATTRS. Disabled by default.
2015-09-12lib/mp-readline: Add auto-indent support.Damien George
4 spaces are added at start of line to match previous indent, and if previous line ended in colon. Backspace deletes 4 space if only spaces begin a line. Configurable via MICROPY_REPL_AUTO_INDENT. Disabled by default.
2015-08-20py: Add MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_FILTER, disable for minimal ports.Paul Sokolovsky
Saves 320 bytes on x86.
2015-08-17unix-cpy: Remove unix-cpy. It's no longer needed.Damien George
unix-cpy was originally written to get semantic equivalent with CPython without writing functional tests. When writing the initial implementation of uPy it was a long way between lexer and functional tests, so the half-way test was to make sure that the bytecode was correct. The idea was that if the uPy bytecode matched CPython 1-1 then uPy would be proper Python if the bytecodes acted correctly. And having matching bytecode meant that it was less likely to miss some deep subtlety in the Python semantics that would require an architectural change later on. But that is all history and it no longer makes sense to retain the ability to output CPython bytecode, because: 1. It outputs CPython 3.3 compatible bytecode. CPython's bytecode changes from version to version, and seems to have changed quite a bit in 3.5. There's no point in changing the bytecode output to match CPython anymore. 2. uPy and CPy do different optimisations to the bytecode which makes it harder to match. 3. The bytecode tests are not run. They were never part of Travis and are not run locally anymore. 4. The EMIT_CPYTHON option needs a lot of extra source code which adds heaps of noise, especially in compile.c. 5. Now that there is an extensive test suite (which tests functionality) there is no need to match the bytecode. Some very subtle behaviour is tested with the test suite and passing these tests is a much better way to stay Python-language compliant, rather than trying to match CPy bytecode.
2015-07-26py: Disable REPL EMACS key bindings by default.Damien George
2015-07-26lib/mp-readline: Add emacs-style control characters for cursor movement.Tom Soulanille
Disabled by default. Adds 108 bytes to Thumb2 arch when enabled.
2015-07-20py: Make qstr hash size configurable, defaults to 2 bytes.Damien George
This patch makes configurable, via MICROPY_QSTR_BYTES_IN_HASH, the number of bytes used for a qstr hash. It was originally fixed at 2 bytes, and now defaults to 2 bytes. Setting it to 1 byte will save ROM and RAM at a small expense of hash collisions.
2015-07-14py: Improve allocation policy of qstr data.Damien George
Previous to this patch all interned strings lived in their own malloc'd chunk. On average this wastes N/2 bytes per interned string, where N is the number-of-bytes for a quanta of the memory allocator (16 bytes on 32 bit archs). With this patch interned strings are concatenated into the same malloc'd chunk when possible. Such chunks are enlarged inplace when possible, and shrunk to fit when a new chunk is needed. RAM savings with this patch are highly varied, but should always show an improvement (unless only 3 or 4 strings are interned). New version typically uses about 70% of previous memory for the qstr data, and can lead to savings of around 10% of total memory footprint of a running script. Costs about 120 bytes code size on Thumb2 archs (depends on how many calls to gc_realloc are made).
2015-07-02py: Add TimeoutError exception subclassed from OSError.Daniel Campora
The TimeoutError is useful for some modules, specially the the socket module. TimeoutError can then be alised to socket.timeout and then Python code can differentiate between socket.error and socket.timeout.
2015-06-20py: Use a wrapper to explicitly check self argument of builtin methods.Damien George
Previous to this patch a call such as list.append(1, 2) would lead to a seg fault. This is because list.append is a builtin method and the first argument to such methods is always assumed to have the correct type. Now, when a builtin method is extracted like this it is wrapped in a checker object which checks the the type of the first argument before calling the builtin function. This feature is contrelled by MICROPY_BUILTIN_METHOD_CHECK_SELF_ARG and is enabled by default. See issue #1216.
2015-05-30py: Add further autodetection of endianess in mpconfig.h.Damien George
This patch was needed for gcc 4.4.
2015-05-24stmhal: Implement sys.std{in,out,err}.buffer, for raw byte mode.Damien George
It's configurable and only enabled for stmhal port.
2015-05-04modbuiltins: Add NotImplemented builtin constant.Paul Sokolovsky
From https://docs.python.org/3/library/constants.html#NotImplemented : "Special value which should be returned by the binary special methods (e.g. __eq__(), __lt__(), __add__(), __rsub__(), etc.) to indicate that the operation is not implemented with respect to the other type; may be returned by the in-place binary special methods (e.g. __imul__(), __iand__(), etc.) for the same purpose. Its truth value is true." Some people however appear to abuse it to mean "no value" when None is a legitimate value (don't do that).
2015-05-04modmachine: Add new module to access hardware, starting with physical memory.Paul Sokolovsky
Refactored from "stm" module, provides mem8, mem16, mem32 objects with array subscript syntax.
2015-04-25modsys: Add basic sys.exc_info() implementation.Paul Sokolovsky
The implementation is very basic and non-compliant and provided solely for CPython compatibility. The function itself is bad Python2 heritage, its usage is discouraged.
2015-04-21py: Add attrtuple object, for space-efficient tuples with attr access.Damien George
If you need the functionality of a namedtuple but will only make 1 or a few instances, then use an attrtuple instead.
2015-04-19py/inlinethumb: Support for core floating point instructions.=
Adds support for the following Thumb2 VFP instructions, via the option MICROPY_EMIT_INLINE_THUMB_FLOAT: vcmp vsqrt vneg vcvt_f32_to_s32 vcvt_s32_to_f32 vmrs vmov vldr vstr vadd vsub vmul vdiv
2015-04-16py: Overhaul and simplify printf/pfenv mechanism.Damien George
Previous to this patch the printing mechanism was a bit of a tangled mess. This patch attempts to consolidate printing into one interface. All (non-debug) printing now uses the mp_print* family of functions, mainly mp_printf. All these functions take an mp_print_t structure as their first argument, and this structure defines the printing backend through the "print_strn" function of said structure. Printing from the uPy core can reach the platform-defined print code via two paths: either through mp_sys_stdout_obj (defined pert port) in conjunction with mp_stream_write; or through the mp_plat_print structure which uses the MP_PLAT_PRINT_STRN macro to define how string are printed on the platform. The former is only used when MICROPY_PY_IO is defined. With this new scheme printing is generally more efficient (less layers to go through, less arguments to pass), and, given an mp_print_t* structure, one can call mp_print_str for efficiency instead of mp_printf("%s", ...). Code size is also reduced by around 200 bytes on Thumb2 archs.
2015-04-09py: Adjust some spaces in code style/format, purely for consistency.Damien George
2015-04-07py: Add MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_REVERSED, disable for minimal ports.Paul Sokolovsky
2015-04-06py: Add MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_ENUMERATE, disable for minimal ports.Paul Sokolovsky
2015-04-04objstr: Add .splitlines() method.Paul Sokolovsky
splitlines() occurs ~179 times in CPython3 standard library, so was deemed worthy to implement. The method has subtle semantic differences from just .split("\n"). It is also defined as working for any end-of-line combination, but this is currently not implemented - it works only with LF line-endings (which should be OK for text strings on any platforms, but not OK for bytes).
2015-04-03py: Allow configurable object representation, with 2 different options.Damien George
2015-04-03vm: Support strict stackless mode, with proper exception reporting.Paul Sokolovsky
I.e. in this mode, C stack will never be used to call a Python function, but if there's no free heap for a call, it will be reported as RuntimeError (as expected), not MemoryError.
2015-04-03vm: Initial support for calling bytecode functions w/o C stack ("stackless").Paul Sokolovsky
2015-03-26py: Add optional support for descriptors' __get__ and __set__ methods.stijn
Disabled by default. Enabled on unix and windows ports.
2015-03-20py: Allow retrieving a function's __name__.stijn
Disabled by default. Enabled on unix and stmhal ports.
2015-03-20py: Implement core of OrderedDict type.Paul Sokolovsky
Given that there's already support for "fixed table" maps, which are essentially ordered maps, the implementation of OrderedDict just extends "fixed table" maps by adding an "is ordered" flag and add/remove operations, and reuses 95% of objdict code, just making methods tolerant to both dict and OrderedDict. Some things are missing so far, like CPython-compatible repr and comparison. OrderedDict is Disabled by default; enabled on unix and stmhal ports.
2015-03-14py: Add MICROPY_COMP_{DOUBLE,TRIPLE}_TUPLE_ASSIGN config options.Damien George
These allow to fine-tune the compiler to select whether it optimises tuple assignments of the form a, b = c, d and a, b, c = d, e, f. Sensible defaults are provided.
2015-03-11py: Add support for start/stop/step attributes of builtin range object.Peter D. Gray
2015-03-03py: Add MICROPY_MALLOC_USES_ALLOCATED_SIZE to allow simpler malloc API.Damien George
2015-02-27objarray: Implement array slice assignment.Paul Sokolovsky
This is rarely used feature which takes enough code to implement, so is controlled by MICROPY_PY_ARRAY_SLICE_ASSIGN config setting, default off. But otherwise it may be useful, as allows to update arbitrary-sized data buffers in-place. Slice is yet to implement, and actually, slice assignment implemented in such a way that RHS of assignment should be array of the exact same item typecode as LHS. CPython has it more relaxed, where RHS can be any sequence of compatible types (e.g. it's possible to assign list of int's to a bytearray slice). Overall, when all "slice write" features are implemented, it may cost ~1KB of code.
2015-02-23py: Update parse.c&mpconfig.h to reflect rename of mp_lexer_show_token.nhtshot
This function is only used when DEBUG_PRINTERS and USE_RULE_NAME are enabled.
2015-02-22py: Make math special functions configurable and disabled by default.Damien George
The implementation of these functions is very large (order 4k) and they are rarely used, so we don't enable them by default. They are however enabled in stmhal and unix, since we have the room.
2015-02-08py: Add MICROPY_OBJ_BASE_ALIGNMENT to help with 16-bit ports.Damien George
2015-01-31py: Add MICROPY_PY_ALL_SPECIAL_METHODS and __iadd__ special method under it.Paul Sokolovsky
2015-01-20py: Implement very simple frozen modules support.Paul Sokolovsky
Only modules (not packages) supported now. Source modules can be converted to frozen module structures using tools/make-frozen.py script.
2015-01-16pyexec: Add event-driven variant pyexec_friendly_repl().Paul Sokolovsky
pyexec_friendly_repl_process_char() and friends, useful for ports which integrate into existing cooperative multitasking system. Unlike readline() refactor before, this was implemented in less formal, trial&error process, minor functionality regressions are still known (like soft&hard reset support). So, original loop-based pyexec_friendly_repl() is left intact, specific implementation selectable by config setting.
2015-01-14py, unix: Trace root pointers with native emitter under unix port.Damien George
Native code has GC-heap pointers in it so it must be scanned. But on unix port memory for native functions is mmap'd, and so it must have explicit code to scan it for root pointers.
2015-01-11py: Add MICROPY_QSTR_BYTES_IN_LEN config option, defaulting to 1.Damien George
This new config option sets how many fixed-number-of-bytes to use to store the length of each qstr. Previously this was hard coded to 2, but, as per issue #1056, this is considered overkill since no-one needs identifiers longer than 255 bytes. With this patch the number of bytes for the length is configurable, and defaults to 1 byte. The configuration option filters through to the makeqstrdata.py script. Code size savings going from 2 to 1 byte: - unix x64 down by 592 bytes - stmhal down by 1148 bytes - bare-arm down by 284 bytes Also has RAM savings, and will be slightly more efficient in execution.
