Changes to the function version cache:
- In addition to the function object, also store the code object,
and allow the latter to be retrieved even if the function has been evicted.
- Stop assigning new function versions after a critical attribute (e.g. `__code__`)
has been modified; the version is permanently reset to zero in this case.
- Changes to `__annotations__` are no longer considered critical. (This fixes gh-109998.)
Changes to the Tier 2 optimization machinery:
- If we cannot map a function version to a function, but it is still mapped to a code object,
we continue projecting the trace.
The operand of the `_PUSH_FRAME` and `_POP_FRAME` opcodes can be either NULL,
a function object, or a code object with the lowest bit set.
This allows us to trace through code that calls an ephemeral function,
i.e., a function that may not be alive when we are constructing the executor,
e.g. a generator expression or certain nested functions.
We will lose globals removal inside such functions,
but we can still do other peephole operations
(and even possibly [call inlining](https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/116290),
if we decide to do it), which only need the code object.
As before, if we cannot retrieve the code object from the cache, we stop projecting.
Move PyUnstable_ExecutableKinds and associated macros from the
internal C API to the public C API.
Rename constants: replace "PY_" prefix with "PyUnstable_" prefix.
* pycore_intrinsics.h does nothing if included twice
(add #ifndef and #define).
* Update Tools/cases_generator/generate_cases.py to generate the
Py_BUILD_CORE test.
* _bz2, _lzma, _opcode and zlib extensions now define the
Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro to use internal headers
(pycore_code.h, pycore_intrinsics.h and pycore_blocks_output_buffer.h).
* Add table describing possible executable classes for out-of-process debuggers.
* Remove shim code object creation code as it is no longer needed.
* Make lltrace a bit more robust w.r.t. non-standard frames.
When monitoring LINE events, instrument all instructions that can have a predecessor on a different line.
Then check that the a new line has been hit in the instrumentation code.
This brings the behavior closer to that of 3.11, simplifying implementation and porting of tools.
* The majority of the monitoring code is in instrumentation.c
* The new instrumentation bytecodes are in bytecodes.c
* legacy_tracing.c adapts the new API to the old sys.setrace and sys.setprofile APIs
* Adds EXIT_INTERPRETER instruction to exit PyEval_EvalDefault()
* Simplifies RETURN_VALUE, YIELD_VALUE and RETURN_GENERATOR instructions as they no longer need to check for entry frames.
The fact interpreter frames were split out from full frame objects
rather than always being part of the eval loop implementation means
that it's tricky to infer the expected naming conventions simply
from looking at the code.
Documenting the de facto conventions in pycore_frame.h means future
readers of the code will have a clear explanation of the rationale
for those conventions (i.e. minimising non-functional code churn).
* `PyFrame_FastToLocalsWithError` and `PyFrame_LocalsToFast` are no longer called during profile and tracing.
(Contributed by Fabio Zadrozny)
* Make accesses to a frame's `f_locals` safe from C code, not relying on calls to `PyFrame_FastToLocals` or `PyFrame_LocalsToFast`.
* Document new `PyFrame_GetLocals` C-API function.
Rename also struct _cframe to struct _PyCFrame.
Add a comment suggesting using public functions rather than using
directly the private _PyCFrame structure.
* Add PRECALL_FUNCTION opcode.
* Move 'call shape' varaibles into struct.
* Replace CALL_NO_KW and CALL_KW with KW_NAMES and CALL instructions.
* Specialize for builtin methods taking using the METH_FASTCALL | METH_KEYWORDS protocol.
* Allow kwnames for specialized calls to builtin types.
* Specialize calls to tuple(arg) and str(arg).
* Add RETURN_GENERATOR and JUMP_NO_INTERRUPT opcodes.
* Trim frame and generator by word each.
* Minor refactor of frame.c
* Update test.test_sys to account for smaller frames.
* Treat generator functions as normal functions when evaluating and specializing.
This change is strictly renames and moving code around. It helps in the following ways:
* ensures type-related init functions focus strictly on one of the three aspects (state, objects, types)
* passes in PyInterpreterState * to all those functions, simplifying work on moving types/objects/state to the interpreter
* consistent naming conventions help make what's going on more clear
* keeping API related to a type in the corresponding header file makes it more obvious where to look for it
https://bugs.python.org/issue46008
* Make generator, coroutine and async gen structs all the same size.
* Store interpreter frame in generator (and coroutine). Reduces the number of allocations neeeded for a generator from two to one.
