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

So that the "for x in it: ..." statement can now work without using the heap (so long as the iterator argument fits in an iter_buf structure).

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.

Otherwise some compilers (eg without optimisation) will put this read-only data in RAM instead of ROM.

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.

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.

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__".

Ellipsis constant is rarely used so no point having an extra bytecode for it.

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.

This allows to directly load a Python object to the Python stack. See issue #722 for background.

This patch makes the MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_SLICE compile-time option fully disable the builtin slice operation (when set to 0). This includes removing the slice sytanx from the grammar. Now, enabling slice costs 4228 bytes on unix x64, and 1816 bytes on stmhal.

This patch makes MICROPY_PY_BUILTINS_SET compile-time option fully disable the builtin set object (when set to 0). This includes removing set constructor/comprehension from the grammar, the compiler and the emitters. Now, enabling set costs 8168 bytes on unix x64, and 3576 bytes on stmhal.

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.
