      all: Unify header guard usage. · 299bc625
      Alexander Steffen authored
      The code conventions suggest using header guards, but do not define how
      those should look like and instead point to existing files. However, not
      all existing files follow the same scheme, sometimes omitting header guards
      altogether, sometimes using non-standard names, making it easy to
      accidentally pick a "wrong" example.
      
      This commit ensures that all header files of the MicroPython project (that
      were not simply copied from somewhere else) follow the same pattern, that
      was already present in the majority of files, especially in the py folder.
      
      The rules are as follows.
      
      Naming convention:
      * start with the words MICROPY_INCLUDED
      * contain the full path to the file
      * replace special characters with _
      
      In addition, there are no empty lines before #ifndef, between #ifndef and
      one empty line before #endif. #endif is followed by a comment containing
      the name of the guard macro.
      
      py/grammar.h cannot use header guards by design, since it has to be
      included multiple times in a single C file. Several other files also do not
      need header guards as they are only used internally and guaranteed to be
      included only once:
      * MICROPY_MPHALPORT_H
      * mpconfigboard.h
      * mpconfigport.h
      * mpthreadport.h
      * pin_defs_*.h
      * qstrdefs*.h

      py: Add LOAD_SUPER_METHOD bytecode to allow heap-free super meth calls. · dd11af20
      Damien George authored
      This patch allows the following code to run without allocating on the heap:
      
          super().foo(...)
      
      Before this patch such a call would allocate a super object on the heap and
      then load the foo method and call it right away.  The super object is only
      needed to perform the lookup of the method and not needed after that.  This
      patch makes an optimisation to allocate the super object on the C stack and
      discard it right after use.
      
      Changes in code size due to this patch are:
      
         bare-arm: +128
          minimal: +232
         unix x64: +416
      unix nanbox: +364
           stmhal: +184
          esp8266: +340
           cc3200: +128

      py: Combine 3 comprehension opcodes (list/dict/set) into 1. · adaf0d86
      Damien George authored
      With the previous patch combining 3 emit functions into 1, it now makes
      sense to also combine the corresponding VM opcodes, which is what this
      patch does.  This eliminates 2 opcodes which simplifies the VM and reduces
      code size, in bytes: bare-arm:44, minimal:64, unix(NDEBUG,x86-64):272,
      stmhal:92, esp8266:200.  Profiling (with a simple script that creates many
      list/dict/set comprehensions) shows no measurable change in performance.

      py: Make UNARY_OP_NOT a first-class op, to agree with Py not semantics. · bdbe8c9a
      Damien George authored
      Fixes #1684 and makes "not" match Python semantics.  The code is also
      simplified (the separate MP_BC_NOT opcode is removed) and the patch saves
      68 bytes for bare-arm/ and 52 bytes for minimal/.
      
      Previously "not x" was implemented as !mp_unary_op(x, MP_UNARY_OP_BOOL),
      so any given object only needs to implement MP_UNARY_OP_BOOL (and the VM
      had a special opcode to do the ! bit).
      
      With this patch "not x" is implemented as mp_unary_op(x, MP_UNARY_OP_NOT),
      but this operation is caught at the start of mp_unary_op and dispatched as
      !mp_obj_is_true(x).  mp_obj_is_true has special logic to test for
      truthness, and is the correct way to handle the not operation.

      py: Remove mp_load_const_bytes and instead load precreated bytes object. · 59fba2d6
      Damien George authored
      Previous to this patch each time a bytes object was referenced a new
      instance (with the same data) was created.  With this patch a single
      bytes object is created in the compiler and is loaded directly at execute
      time as a true constant (similar to loading bignum and float objects).
      This saves on allocating RAM and means that bytes objects can now be
      used when the memory manager is locked (eg in interrupts).
      
      The MP_BC_LOAD_CONST_BYTES bytecode was removed as part of this.
      
      Generated bytecode is slightly larger due to storing a pointer to the
      bytes object instead of the qstr identifier.
      
      Code size is reduced by about 60 bytes on Thumb2 architectures.

      py: Convert hash API to use MP_UNARY_OP_HASH instead of ad-hoc function. · c2a4e4ef
      Damien George authored
      Hashing is now done using mp_unary_op function with MP_UNARY_OP_HASH as
      the operator argument.  Hashing for int, str and bytes still go via
      fast-path in mp_unary_op since they are the most common objects which
      need to be hashed.
      
      This lead to quite a bit of code cleanup, and should be more efficient
      if anything.  It saves 176 bytes code space on Thumb2, and 360 bytes on
      x86.
      
      The only loss is that the error message "unhashable type" is now the
      more generic "unsupported type for __hash__".

      py: Parse big-int/float/imag constants directly in parser. · 7d414a1b
      Damien George authored
      Previous to this patch, a big-int, float or imag constant was interned
      (made into a qstr) and then parsed at runtime to create an object each
      time it was needed.  This is wasteful in RAM and not efficient.  Now,
      these constants are parsed straight away in the parser and turned into
      objects.  This allows constants with large numbers of digits (so
      addresses issue #1103) and takes us a step closer to #722.

      py: Compress load-int, load-fast, store-fast, unop, binop bytecodes. · 8456cc01
      Damien George authored
      There is a lot potential in compress bytecodes and make more use of the
      coding space.  This patch introduces "multi" bytecodes which have their
      argument included in the bytecode (by addition).
      
      UNARY_OP and BINARY_OP now no longer take a 1 byte argument for the
      opcode.  Rather, the opcode is included in the first byte itself.
      
      LOAD_FAST_[0,1,2] and STORE_FAST_[0,1,2] are removed in favour of their
      multi versions, which can take an argument between 0 and 15 inclusive.
      The majority of LOAD_FAST/STORE_FAST codes fit in this range and so this
      saves a byte for each of these.
      
      LOAD_CONST_SMALL_INT_MULTI is used to load small ints between -16 and 47
      inclusive.  Such ints are quite common and now only need 1 byte to
      store, and now have much faster decoding.
      
      In all this patch saves about 2% RAM for typically bytecode (1.8% on
      64-bit test, 2.5% on pyboard test).  It also reduces the binary size
      (because bytecodes are simplified) and doesn't harm performance.

      Change object representation from 1 big union to individual structs. · d99b0528
      Damien authored
      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).
