This change implements a new bytecode compiler, based on a
transformation of the parse tree to an abstract syntax defined in
Parser/Python.asdl.
The compiler implementation is not complete, but it is in stable
enough shape to run the entire test suite excepting two disabled
tests.
* Use simpler, faster two pass algorithm for markblocks().
* Free the blocks variable if not NULL and exiting without change.
* Verify that the rest of the compiler has not set an exception.
* Make the test for tuple of constants less restrictive.
* Embellish the comment for chained conditional jumps.
Peepholer could be fooled into misidentifying a tuple_of_constants.
Added code to count consecutive occurrences of LOAD_CONST.
Use the count to weed out the misidentified cases.
Added a unittest.
Allows the lineno fixup code to remain simple and not have to deal with
multibyte codings.
* Add an assertion to that effect.
* Remove the XXX comment on the subject.
* Perform the code length check earlier.
* Eliminate the extra PyMem_Free() upon hitting an EXTENDED_ARG.
* Assert that the NOP count used in jump retargeting matches the NOPs
eliminated in the final step.
* Add an XXX note to indicate that more work is being to done to
handle linenotab with intervals > 255.
* Make a pass to eliminate NOPs. Produce code that is more readable,
more compact, and a tiny bit faster. Makes the peepholer more flexible
in the scope of allowable transformations.
* With Guido's okay, bumped up the magic number so that this patch gets
widely exercised before the alpha goes out.
files and not re-optimized upon import. Saves a bit of startup time while
still remaining decoupled from the rest of the compiler.
As a side benefit, handcoded bytecode is not run through the optimizer
when new code objects are created. Hopefully, a handcoder has already
created exactly what they want to have run.
(Idea suggested by Armin Rigo and Michael Hudson. Initially avoided
because of worries about compiler coupling; however, only the nexus
point needed to be moved so there won't be a conflict when the AST
branch is loaded.)
[ 1009560 ] Fix @decorator evaluation order
From the description:
Changes in this patch:
- Change Grammar/Grammar to require
newlines between adjacent decorators.
- Fix order of evaluation of decorators
in the C (compile.c) and python
(Lib/compiler/pycodegen.py) compilers
- Add better order of evaluation check
to test_decorators.py (test_eval_order)
- Update the decorator documentation in
the reference manual (improve description
of evaluation order and update syntax
description)
and the comment:
Used Brett's evaluation order (see
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2004-August/047835.html)
(I'm checking this in for Anthony who was having problems getting SF to
talk to him)
[ 1005248 ] new.code() not cleanly checking its arguments
using the result of new.code() can still destroy the sun, but merely
calling the function shouldn't any more.
I also rewrote the existing tests of new.code() to use vastly less
un-bogus arguments, and added tests for the previous insane behaviours.
