"Zero cost" exception handling.
* Uses a lookup table to determine how to handle exceptions.
* Removes SETUP_FINALLY and POP_TOP block instructions, eliminating (most of) the runtime overhead of try statements.
* Reduces the size of the frame object by about 60%.
This fixes the following warning:
'initializing': conversion from 'Py_ssize_t' to 'int', possible loss of data [D:\a\cpython\cpython\PCbuild\pythoncore.vcxproj]
* Add length parameter to PyLineTable_InitAddressRange and doen't use sentinel values at end of table. Makes the line number table more robust.
* Update PyCodeAddressRange to match PEP 626.
To improve the user experience understanding what part of the error messages associated with SyntaxErrors is wrong, we can highlight the whole error range and not only place the caret at the first character. In this way:
>>> foo(x, z for z in range(10), t, w)
File "<stdin>", line 1
foo(x, z for z in range(10), t, w)
^
SyntaxError: Generator expression must be parenthesized
becomes
>>> foo(x, z for z in range(10), t, w)
File "<stdin>", line 1
foo(x, z for z in range(10), t, w)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
SyntaxError: Generator expression must be parenthesized
* Modify compiler to reduce stack consumption for large expressions.
* Add more tests for stack usage.
* Add NEWS item.
* Raise SystemError for truly excessive stack use.
* Handle check for sending None to starting generator and coroutine into bytecode.
* Document new bytecode and make it fail gracefully if mis-compiled.
* Use instruction offset, rather than bytecode offset. Streamlines interpreter dispatch a bit, and removes most EXTENDED_ARGs for jumps.
* Change some uses of PyCode_Addr2Line to PyFrame_GetLineNumber
Remove the compiler functions using "struct _mod" type, because the
public AST C API was removed:
* PyAST_Compile()
* PyAST_CompileEx()
* PyAST_CompileObject()
* PyFuture_FromAST()
* PyFuture_FromASTObject()
These functions were undocumented and excluded from the limited C API.
Rename functions:
* PyAST_CompileObject() => _PyAST_Compile()
* PyFuture_FromASTObject() => _PyFuture_FromAST()
Moreover, _PyFuture_FromAST() is no longer exported (replace
PyAPI_FUNC() with extern). _PyAST_Compile() remains exported for
test_peg_generator.
Remove also compatibility functions:
* PyAST_Compile()
* PyAST_CompileEx()
* PyFuture_FromAST()
Rename Include/symtable.h to to Include/internal/pycore_symtable.h,
don't export symbols anymore (replace PyAPI_FUNC and PyAPI_DATA with
extern) and rename functions:
* PyST_GetScope() to _PyST_GetScope()
* PySymtable_BuildObject() to _PySymtable_Build()
* PySymtable_Free() to _PySymtable_Free()
Remove PySymtable_Build(), Py_SymtableString() and
Py_SymtableStringObject() functions.
The Py_SymtableString() function was part the stable ABI by mistake
but it could not be used, since the symtable.h header file was
excluded from the limited C API.
The Python symtable module remains available and is unchanged.
Move _PyAST_GetDocString() and _PyAST_ExprAsUnicode() functions the
internal C API: from Include/ast.h to a new
Include/internal/pycore_ast.h header file. Don't export these
functions anymore: replace PyAPI_FUNC() with extern.
Remove also unused includes.
* bpo-43497: Emit SyntaxWarnings for assertions with tuple constants.
Add a test that shows that a tuple constant (a tuple, where all of its
members are also compile-time constants) produces a SyntaxWarning. Then
fix this failure.
* Make SyntaxWarnings also work when "optimized".
* Split tests for SyntaxWarning to SyntaxError conversion
SyntaxWarnings emitted by the compiler when configured to be errors are
actually raised as SyntaxError exceptions.
Move these tests into their own method and add a test to ensure they are
raised. Previously we only tested that they were not raised for a
"valid" assertion statement.
* Replace Py_FatalError() calls with regular SystemError exceptions.
* compiler_exit_scope() calls _PyErr_WriteUnraisableMsg() to log the
PySequence_DelItem() failure.
* compiler_unit_check() uses _PyMem_IsPtrFreed().
* compiler_make_closure(): remove "(reftype == FREE)" comment since
reftype can also be LOCAL or GLOBAL_EXPLICIT.
When Python is built in debug mode (with C assertions), calling a
type slot like sq_length (__len__() in Python) now fails with a fatal
error if the slot succeeded with an exception set, or failed with no
exception set. The error message contains the slot, the type name,
and the current exception (if an exception is set).
* Check the result of all slots using _Py_CheckSlotResult().
* No longer pass op_name to ternary_op() in release mode.
* Replace operator with dunder Python method name in error messages.
For example, replace "*" with "__mul__".
* Fix compiler_exit_scope() when an exception is set.
* Fix bytearray.extend() when an exception is set: don't call
bytearray_setslice() with an exception set.
* Mark bytecodes at end of try-except as artificial.
* Make sure that the CFG is consistent throughout optimiization.
* Extend line-number propagation logic so that implicit returns after 'try-except' or 'with' have the correct line numbers.
* Update importlib
* Add test for frame.f_lineno with/without tracing.
* Make sure that frame.f_lineno is correct regardless of whether frame.f_trace is set.
* Update importlib
* Add NEWS
* Delete jump instructions that bypass empty blocks
* Add news entry
* Explicitly check for unconditional jump opcodes
Using the is_jump function results in the inclusion of instructions like
returns for which this optimization is not really valid. So, instead
explicitly check that the instruction is an unconditional jump.
* Handle conditional jumps, delete jumps gracefully
* Ensure b_nofallthrough and b_reachable are valid
* Add test for redundant jumps
* Regenerate importlib.h and edit Misc/ACKS
* Fix bad whitespace
