[ 587993 ] SET_LINENO killer
Remove SET_LINENO. Tracing is now supported by inspecting co_lnotab.
Many sundry changes to document and adapt to this change.
- The log reader now provides a "closed" attribute similar to the
profiler.
- Both the profiler and log reader now provide a fileno() method.
- Use METH_NOARGS where possible, allowing simpler code in the method
implementations.
write_header(): When we encounter a non-string object in sys.path, record
a fairly mindless placeholder rather than dying. Possibly could record
the repr of the object found, but not clear whether that matters.
to lists of values, giving the contents of all the ADD_INFO records
seen so far. This is initialized agressively when the log file is
opened, so that whoever is looking at the log reader can always see
the initial data loaded into the data stream. ADD_INFO events later
in the log file continue to be reported to the application layer as
before.
Add a new method, addinfo(), to the profiler. This can be used to
insert additional ADD_INFO records into the profiler log.
Fix the tp_flags and tp_name slots on the type objects.
Added support for saving the names of the functions observed into the
profile log.
Added support for using the profiler to measure coverage without collecting
timing information (which is the slow part). Coverage logs can also be
substantially smaller than profiling logs where per-line information is
being collected.
Updated comments on the log format; corrected record type values in some
of the record descriptions.
