2015-04-07py: Implement full func arg passing for native emitter.Damien George
This patch gets full function argument passing working with native emitter. Includes named args, keyword args, default args, var args and var keyword args. Fully Python compliant. It reuses the bytecode mp_setup_code_state function to do all the hard work. This function is slightly adjusted to accommodate native calls, and the native emitter is forced a bit to emit similar prelude and code-info as bytecode.
2015-01-24py: Don't use anonymous unions, name them instead.Damien George
This makes the code (more) compatible with the C99 standard.
2015-01-01py: Move to guarded includes, everywhere in py/ core.Damien George
Addresses issue #1022.

2014-10-25py: Store bytecode arg names in bytecode (were in own array).Damien George
This saves a lot of RAM for 2 reasons: 1. For functions that don't have default values, var args or var kw args (which is a large number of functions in the general case), the mp_obj_fun_bc_t type now fits in 1 GC block (previously needed 2 because of the extra pointer to point to the arg_names array). So this saves 16 bytes per function (32 bytes on 64-bit machines). 2. Combining separate memory regions generally saves RAM because the unused bytes at the end of the GC block are saved for 1 of the blocks (since that block doesn't exist on its own anymore). So generally this saves 8 bytes per function. Tested by importing lots of modules: - 64-bit Linux gave about an 8% RAM saving for 86k of used RAM. - pyboard gave about a 6% RAM saving for 31k of used RAM.
2014-10-24py: Fix debug-printing of bytecode line numbers.Damien George
Also move the raw bytecode printing code from emitglue to mp_bytecode_print.
2014-08-24py: Fix bug where GC collected native/viper/asm function data.Damien George
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.
2014-08-15py: Allow viper to have type annotations.Damien George
Viper functions can now be annotated with the type of their arguments and return value. Eg: @micropython.viper def f(x:int) -> int: return x + 1
2014-05-12py: Remove emit_glue init and deinit. Needed only for debugging.Damien George
Debugging output for emit_glue now simplified so that the init and deinit functions are no longer needed.
2014-05-10py: Combine native emitters to 1 glue function; distinguish viper.Damien George
This patch simplifies the glue between native emitter and runtime, and handles viper code like inline assember: return values are converted to Python objects. Fixes issue #531.
2014-05-10py: Rename byte_code to bytecode everywhere.Damien George
bytecode is the more widely used. See issue #590.
2014-05-03Add license header to (almost) all files.Damien George
Blanket wide to all .c and .h files. Some files originating from ST are difficult to deal with (license wise) so it was left out of those. Also merged modpyb.h, modos.h, modstm.h and modtime.h in stmhal/.
2014-04-27py: Implement keyword-only args.Damien George
Implements 'def f(*, a)' and 'def f(*a, b)', but not default keyword-only args, eg 'def f(*, a=1)'. Partially addresses issue #524.
2014-04-20py: Making closures now passes pointer to stack, not a tuple for vars.Damien George
Closed over variables are now passed on the stack, instead of creating a tuple and passing that. This way memory for the closed over variables can be allocated within the closure object itself. See issue #510 for background.
2014-04-13py: Remove unique_codes from emitglue.c. Replace with pointers.Damien George
Attempt to address issue #386. unique_code_id's have been removed and replaced with a pointer to the "raw code" information. This pointer is stored in the actual byte code (aligned, so the GC can trace it), so that raw code (ie byte code, native code and inline assembler) is kept only for as long as it is needed. In memory it's now like a tree: the outer module's byte code points directly to its children's raw code. So when the outer code gets freed, if there are no remaining functions that need the raw code, then the children's code gets freed as well. This is pretty much like CPython does it, except that CPython stores indexes in the byte code rather than machine pointers. These indices index the per-function constant table in order to find the relevant code.
2014-03-29py: Free unique_code slot for outer module.Damien George
Partly (very partly!) addresses issue #386. Most importantly, at the REPL command line, each invocation does not now lead to increased memory usage (unless you define a function/lambda).
