Antoine Pitrou 4528bcde77 The test for #5330 wasn't correct. 2009-05-30 21:39:25 +00:00
Antoine Pitrou 46dbe27f7e Issue #5330: C functions called with keyword arguments were not reported by
the various profiling modules (profile, cProfile). Patch by Hagen Fürstenau.

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc 607bff1ebe Some tests did not pass on repeated calls (regrtest -R::)
Perform additional cleanup, mostly deleting from sys.modules, or clearing the warnings registry.

Georg Brandl b70907796a * Use the same code to profile for test_profile and test_cprofile.
* Convert both to unittest.
* Use the same unit testing code.
* Include the expected output in both test files.
* Make it possible to regenerate the expected output by running
  the file as a script with an '-r' argument.

Armin Rigo a871ef2b3e Added the cProfile module.
Based on lsprof (patch #1212837) by Brett Rosen and Ted Czotter.
With further editing by Michael Hudson and myself.
History in svn repo: http://codespeak.net/svn/user/arigo/hack/misc/lsprof

* Module/_lsprof.c is the internal C module, Lib/cProfile.py a wrapper.
* pstats.py updated to display cProfile's caller/callee timings if available.
* setup.py and NEWS updated.
* documentation updates in the profiler section:
   - explain the differences between the three profilers that we have now
   - profile and cProfile can use a unified documentation, like (c)Pickle
   - mention that hotshot is "for specialized usage" now
   - removed references to the "old profiler" that no longer exists
* test updates:
   - extended test_profile to cover delicate cases like recursion
   - added tests for the caller/callee displays
   - added test_cProfile, performing the same tests for cProfile
* TO-DO:
   - cProfile gives a nicer name to built-in, particularly built-in methods,
     which could be backported to profile.
   - not tested on Windows recently!

Armin Rigo f879024487 test and fix for buggy handling of exceptions raised by C functions,
causing the profiler to crash on an AssertionError if the same Python
function catches multiple exceptions from C functions.

Guido van Rossum f137f75ab8 Hopefully fix the profiler right. Add a test suite that checks that
it deals correctly with some anomalous cases; according to this test
suite I've fixed it right.

The anomalous cases had to do with 'exception' events: these aren't
generated when they would be most helpful, and the profiler has to
work hard to recover the right information.  The problems occur when C
code (such as hasattr(), which is used as the example here) calls back
into Python code and clears an exception raised by that Python code.
Consider this example:

    def foo():
        hasattr(obj, "bar")

Where obj is an instance from a class like this:

    class C:
        def __getattr__(self, name):
            raise AttributeError

The profiler sees the following sequence of events:

    call (foo)
    call (__getattr__)
    exception (in __getattr__)
    return (from foo)

Previously, the profiler would assume the return event returned from
__getattr__. An if statement checking for this condition and raising
an exception was commented out...  This version does the right thing.
