Compiler optimises lookup of module.CONST when enabled (an existing
feature). Disabled by default; enabled for unix, windows, stmhal.
Costs about 100 bytes ROM on stmhal.
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
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
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/.
By default mingw outputs 3 digits instead of the standard 2 so all float
tests using printf fail. Using setenv at the start of the program fixes this.
To accomodate calling platform specific initialization a
MICROPY_MAIN_INIT_FUNC macro is used which is called in mp_init()
The mingw port used _fullpath() until now, but the behaviour is not exactly
the same as realpath()'s on unix; major difference being that it doesn't
return an error for non-existing files, which would bypass main's error
checking and bail out without any error message.
Also realpath() will return forward slashes only since main() relies on that.
A big change. Micro Python objects are allocated as individual structs
with the first element being a pointer to the type information (which
is itself an object). This scheme follows CPython. Much more flexible,
not necessarily slower, uses same heap memory, and can allocate objects
statically.
Also change name prefix, from py_ to mp_ (mp for Micro Python).
