2014-04-20py: Wrap #if's around emitter functions that are used only by emitcpy.Damien George
3 emitter functions are needed only for emitcpy, and so we can #if them out when compiling with emitcpy support. Also remove unused SETUP_LOOP bytecode.
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.
2014-04-17py: Rename USE_COMPUTED_GOTOS to USE_COMPUTED_GOTO and enable on stmhal.Damien George
On stmhal, computed gotos make the binary about 1k bigger, but makes it run faster, and we have the room, so why not. All tests pass on pyboard using computed gotos.
2014-04-17py: Add MP_OBJ_STOP_ITERATION and make good use of it.Damien George
Also make consistent use of MP_OBJ_NOT_SUPPORTED and MP_OBJ_NULL. This helps a lot in debugging and understanding of function API.
2014-04-17py: Merge BINARY_OP_SUBSCR and store_subscr (w/ delete) into subscr.Damien George
mp_obj_t->subscr now does load/store/delete.
2014-04-17py: Tidy up variables in VM, probably fixes subtle bugs.Damien George
Things get tricky when using the nlr code to catch exceptions. Need to ensure that the variables (stack layout) in the exception handler are the same as in the bit protected by the exception handler. Prior to this patch there were a few bugs. 1) The constant mp_const_MemoryError_obj was being preloaded to a specific location on the stack at the start of the function. But this location on the stack was being overwritten in the opcode loop (since it didn't think that variable would ever be referenced again), and so when an exception occurred, the variable holding the address of MemoryError was corrupt. 2) The FOR_ITER opcode detection in the exception handler used sp, which may or may not contain the right value coming out of the main opcode loop. With this patch there is a clear separation of variables used in the opcode loop and in the exception handler (should fix issue (2) above). Furthermore, nlr_raise is no longer used in the opcode loop. Instead, it jumps directly into the exception handler. This tells the C compiler more about the possible code flow, and means that it should have the same stack layout for the exception handler. This should fix issue (1) above. Indeed, the generated (ARM) assembler has been checked explicitly, and with 'goto exception_handler', the problem with &MemoryError is fixed. This may now fix problems with rge-sm, and probably many other subtle bugs yet to show themselves. Incidentally, rge-sm now passes on pyboard (with a reduced range of integration)! Main lesson: nlr is tricky. Don't use nlr_push unless you know what you are doing! Luckily, it's not used in many places. Using nlr_raise/jump is fine.

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.
2014-04-12py: Make all LOAD_FAST ops check for unbound local.Damien George
This is necessary to catch all cases where locals are referenced before assignment. We still keep the _0, _1, _2 versions of LOAD_FAST to help reduced the byte code size in RAM. Addresses issue #457.
2014-04-11py: Change compile order for default positional and keyword args.Damien George
This simplifies the compiler a little, since now it can do 1 pass over a function declaration, to determine default arguments. I would have done this originally, but CPython 3.3 somehow had the default keyword args compiled before the default position args (even though they appear in the other order in the text of the script), and I thought it was important to have the same order of execution when evaluating default arguments. CPython 3.4 has changed the order to the more obvious one, so we can also change.
2014-04-10py: Fix VM stack overflow detection.Damien George
2014-04-10py: Add option to VM to detect stack overflow.Damien George
2014-04-09py: Clear state to MP_OBJ_NULL before executing byte code.Damien George
2014-04-09py: Properly implement deletion of locals and derefs, and detect errors.Damien George
Needed to reinstate 2 delete opcodes, to specifically check that a local is not deleted twice.
2014-04-08py: Remove DELETE_SUBSCR opcode, combine with STORE_SUBSCR.Damien George
This makes the runtime and object APIs more consistent. mp_store_subscr functionality now moved into objects (ie list and dict store_item).
2014-04-08py: Finish implementation of all del opcodes.Damien George
At this point, all opcodes are now implemented! Some del opcodes have been combined with store opcodes, with the value to store being MP_OBJ_NULL.
2014-04-08py: implement UNPACK_EX byte code (for: a, *b, c = d)Damien George
2014-04-08py: Raise exception for unimplemented byte codes.Damien George
2014-04-06py: Implement more features in native emitter.Damien George
On x64, native emitter now passes 70 of the tests.
2014-04-05py: Change nlr_jump to nlr_raise, to aid in debugging.Damien George
This does not affect code size or performance when debugging turned off. To address issue #420.

2014-04-04py: Add m_malloc_fail function to handle memory allocation error.Damien George
A malloc/realloc fail now throws MemoryError.

2014-03-31py: Remove old "run time" functions that were 1 liners.Damien George
2014-03-31mp_resume: Dare to pass send_value of NULL.Paul Sokolovsky
There was thinkos that either send_value or throw_value is specified, but there were cases with both. Note that send_value is pushed onto generator's stack - but that's probably only good, because if we throw exception into gen, it should not ever use send_value, and that will be just extra "assert".
2014-03-31py: Towards default keyword arguments.Damien George
These are default arguments after a bare *.
2014-03-31py: Add LOAD_NULL bytecode and use it to simplify function calls.Damien George
Adding this bytecode allows to remove 4 others related to function/method calls with * and ** support. Will also help with bytecodes that make functions/closures with default positional and keyword args.
2014-03-30py: Implement support for generalized generator protocol.Paul Sokolovsky
Iterators and ducktype objects can now be arguments of yield from.
2014-03-30py: Implement positional and keyword args via * and **.Damien George
Extends previous implementation with * for function calls to * and ** for both function and method calls.

2014-03-30Rename rt_* to mp_*.Damien George
Mostly just a global search and replace. Except rt_is_true which becomes mp_obj_is_true. Still would like to tidy up some of the names, but this will do for now.

2014-03-30py: Fix reraise logic.Damien George
2014-03-30vm: Save current active exception on opening new try block.Paul Sokolovsky
Required to reraise correct exceptions in except block, regardless if more try blocks with active exceptions happen in the same except block. P.S. This "automagic reraise" appears to be quite wasteful feature of Python - we need to save pending exception just in case it *might* be reraised. Instead, programmer could explcitly capture exception to a variable using "except ... as var", and reraise that. So, consider disabling argless raise support as an optimization.

2014-03-29py: Make MP_BC_SETUP_WITH use the bytecode stack for load_method.Damien George
The compiler allocates 7 entries on the stack for a with statement (following CPython, but probably can be reduced). This is enough for the method load and call in SETUP_WITH.

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).
