Fred Drake 9e3ad78444 This change adjusts the profiling/tracing support so that the common
path (with no profile/trace function) through eval_code2() and
eval_frame() avoids several checks.

In the common cases of calls, returns, and exception propogation,
eval_code2() and eval_frame() used to test two values in the
thread-state: the profiling function and the tracing function.  With
this change, a flag is set in the thread-state if either of these is
active, allowing a single check to suffice when both are NULL.  This
also simplifies the code needed when either function is in use but is
already active (to avoid profiling/tracing the profiler/tracer); the
flag is set to 0 when the profile/trace code is entered, allowing the
same check to suffice for "already in the tracer" for call/return/
exception events.

Fred Drake 5755ce693d Revise the interface to the profiling and tracing support for the
Python interpreter.

This change adds two new C-level APIs:  PyEval_SetProfile() and
PyEval_SetTrace().  These can be used to install profile and trace
functions implemented in C, which can operate at much higher speeds
than Python-based functions.  The overhead for calling a C-based
profile function is a very small fraction of a percent of the overhead
involved in calling a Python-based function.

The machinery required to call a Python-based profile or trace
function been moved to sysmodule.c, where sys.setprofile() and
sys.setprofile() simply become users of the new interface.

As a side effect, SF bug #436058 is fixed; there is no longer a
_PyTrace_Init() function to declare.

Tim Peters e77f2e2798 gen_getattr: make the gi_running and gi_frame members discoverable (but
not writable -- too dangerous!) from Python code.
2001-06-26 22:24:51 +00:00
Tim Peters d8e1c9e177 Add "gi_" (generator-iterator) prefix to names of genobject members.
Makes it much easier to find references via dumb editor search (former
"frame" in particular was near-hopeless).

Tim Peters ad1a18b78e Change the semantics of "return" in generators, as discussed on the
Iterators list and Python-Dev; e.g., these all pass now:

def g1():
    try:
        return
    except:
        yield 1
assert list(g1()) == []

def g2():
    try:
        return
    finally:
        yield 1
assert list(g2()) == [1]

def g3():
    for i in range(3):
        yield None
    yield None
assert list(g3()) == [None] * 4

compile.c:  compile_funcdef and com_return_stmt:  Just van Rossum's patch
to compile the same code for "return" regardless of function type (this
goes back to the previous scheme of returning Py_None).

ceval.c:  gen_iternext:  take a return (but not a yield) of Py_None as
meaning the generator is exhausted.
2001-06-23 06:19:16 +00:00
Tim Peters 5eb4b87ae6 gen_iternext(): Don't assume that the current thread state's frame is
not NULL.  I don't think it can be NULL from Python code, but if using
generators via the C API I expect a NULL frame is possible.

Tim Peters 8c96369513 PyFrameObject: rename f_stackbottom to f_stacktop, since it points to
the next free valuestack slot, not to the base (in America, stacks push
and pop at the top -- they mutate at the bottom in Australia <winK>).
eval_frame():  assert that f_stacktop isn't NULL upon entry.
frame_delloc():  avoid ordered pointer comparisons involving f_stacktop
when f_stacktop is NULL.

Neil Schemenauer 2b13ce8317 Try to avoid creating reference cycles involving generators. Only keep a
reference to f_back when its really needed.  Do a little whitespace
normalization as well.  This whole file is a big war between tabs and spaces
but now is probably not the time to reindent everything.

Tim Peters 6302ec63fc gen_iternext(): repair subtle refcount problem.
NeilS, please check!  This came from staring at your genbug.py, but I'm
not sure it plugs all possible holes.  Without this, I caught a
frameobject refcount going negative, and it was also the cause (in debug
build) of _Py_ForgetReference's attempt to forget an object with already-
NULL _ob_prev and _ob_next pointers -- although I'm still not entirely
sure how!  Part of the difficulty is that frameobjects are stored on a
free list that gets recycled very quickly, so if there's a stray pointer
to one of them it never looks like an insane frameobject (never goes
trough the free() mangling MS debug forces, etc).

Fred Drake d083839fb4 Instead of initializing & interning the strings passed to the profile
and trace functions lazily, which incurs extra argument pushing and checks
in the C overhead for profiling/tracing, create the strings semi-lazily
when the Python code first registers a profile or trace function.  This
simplifies the trampoline into the profile/trace functions.

Tim Peters 239508cd10 SF bug 433228: repr(list) woes when len(list) big
call_object:  If the object isn't callable, display its type in the error
msg rather than its repr.
Bugfix candidate.
2001-06-16 00:09:28 +00:00
Fred Drake 904aa7bb00 call_trace(): Add an additional parameter -- pointer to a PyObject*
that should be used to cache an interned version of the event
    string passed to the profile/trace function.  call_trace() will
    create interned strings and cache them in using the storage
    specified by this additional parameter, avoiding a lot of string
    object creation at runtime when using the profiling or tracing
    functions.

All call sites are modified to pass the additional parameter, and four
static PyObject* variables are allocated to cache the interned string
objects.

This closes SF patch #431257.

Jeremy Hylton da20fce9c3 Add a second special case to the inline function call code in eval_code2().
If we have a PyCFunction (builtin) and it is METH_VARARGS only, load
the args and dispatch to call_cfunction() directly.  This provides a
small speedup for perhaps the most common function calls -- builtins.

Jeremy Hylton 960d948e7c improved error message-- names the type of the unexpected object 2001-04-27 02:25:33 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 213c7a6aa5 Mondo changes to the iterator stuff, without changing how Python code
sees it (test_iter.py is unchanged).

- Added a tp_iternext slot, which calls the iterator's next() method;
  this is much faster for built-in iterators over built-in types
  such as lists and dicts, speeding up pybench's ForLoop with about
  25% compared to Python 2.1.  (Now there's a good argument for
  iterators. ;-)

- Renamed the built-in sequence iterator SeqIter, affecting the C API
  functions for it.  (This frees up the PyIter prefix for generic
  iterator operations.)

- Added PyIter_Check(obj), which checks that obj's type has a
  tp_iternext slot and that the proper feature flag is set.

- Added PyIter_Next(obj) which calls the tp_iternext slot.  It has a
  somewhat complex return condition due to the need for speed: when it
  returns NULL, it may not have set an exception condition, meaning
  the iterator is exhausted; when the exception StopIteration is set
  (or a derived exception class), it means the same thing; any other
  exception means some other error occurred.

2001-04-21 02:46:11 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 59d1d2b434 Iterators phase 1. This comprises:
new slot tp_iter in type object, plus new flag Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_ITER
new C API PyObject_GetIter(), calls tp_iter
new builtin iter(), with two forms: iter(obj), and iter(function, sentinel)
new internal object types iterobject and calliterobject
new exception StopIteration
new opcodes for "for" loops, GET_ITER and FOR_ITER (also supported by dis.py)
new magic number for .pyc files
new special method for instances: __iter__() returns an iterator
iteration over dictionaries: "for x in dict" iterates over the keys
iteration over files: "for x in file" iterates over lines

TODO:

Jeremy Hylton c76770c68c Change error message raised when free variable is not yet bound. It
now raises NameError instead of UnboundLocalError, because the var in
question is definitely not local.  (This affects test_scope.py)

Also update the recent fix by Ping using get_func_name().  Replace
tests of get_func_name() return value with call to get_func_desc() to
match all the other uses.
2001-04-13 16:51:46 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d9994e0115 Patch by Ping (SF bug 415879, Exception.__init__() causes segfault):
Calling an unbound method on a C extension class without providing
   an instance can yield a segfault.  Try "Exception.__init__()" or
   "ValueError.__init__()".

   This is a simple fix. The error-reporting bits in call_method
   mistakenly treat the misleadingly-named variable "func" as a
   function, when in fact it is a method.

   If we let get_func_name take care of the work, all is fine.

Jeremy Hylton 512a237725 Fix exception handling for non-PyFunction objects, SF bug 414743.
Fix based on patch #414750 by Michael Hudson.

New functions get_func_name() and get_func_desc() return reasonable
names and descriptions for all objects.  XXX Even objects that aren't
actually callable.

Jeremy Hylton bc32024769 Extend support for from __future__ import nested_scopes
If a module has a future statement enabling nested scopes, they are
also enable for the exec statement and the functions compile() and
execfile() if they occur in the module.

If Python is run with the -i option, which enters interactive mode
after executing a script, and the script it runs enables nested
scopes, they are also enabled in interactive mode.

XXX The use of -i with -c "from __future__ import nested_scopes" is
not supported.  What's the point?

To support these changes, many function variants have been added to
pythonrun.c.  All the variants names end with Flags and they take an
extra PyCompilerFlags * argument.  It is possible that this complexity
will be eliminated in a future version of the interpreter in which
nested scopes are not optional.
2001-03-22 02:47:58 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 061d106a0f If a code object is compiled with nested scopes, define the CO_NESTED flag.
Add PyEval_GetNestedScopes() which returns a non-zero value if the
code for the current interpreter frame has CO_NESTED defined.

Guido van Rossum 66b0e9c2a7 Use PyObject_IsInstance() to check whether the first argument to an
unbound method is of the right type.  Hopefully this solves SF patch
#409355 (Meta-class inheritance problem); I have no easy way to test.
2001-03-21 19:17:22 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 220ae7c0bf Fix PyFrame_FastToLocals() and counterpart to deal with cells and
frees.  Note there doesn't seem to be any way to test LocalsToFast(),
because the instructions that trigger it are illegal in nested scopes
with free variables.

Fix allocation strategy for cells that are also formal parameters.
Instead of emitting LOAD_FAST / STORE_DEREF pairs for each parameter,
have the argument handling code in eval_code2() do the right thing.

A side-effect of this change is that cell variables that are also
arguments are listed at the front of co_cellvars in the order they
appear in the argument list.
2001-03-21 16:43:47 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 30c9f3991c Variety of small INC/DECREF patches that fix reported memory leaks
with free variables.  Thanks to Martin v. Loewis for finding two of
the problems.  This fixes SF buf 405583.

There is also a C API change: PyFrame_New() is reverting to its
pre-2.1 signature.  The change introduced by nested scopes was a
mistake.  XXX Is this okay between beta releases?

cell_clear(), the GC helper, must decref its reference to break
cycles.

frame_dealloc() must dealloc all cell vars and free vars in addition
to locals.

eval_code2() setup code must INCREF cells it copies out of the
closure.

The STORE_DEREF opcode implementation must DECREF the object it passes
to PyCell_Set().

discussion on python-dev.  'from mod import *' is still banned except
at the module level.

Fix value for special NOOPT entry in symtable.  Initialze to 0 instead

Tim Peters 1ff31f9534 SF bug #130532: newest CVS won't build on AIX.

2001-01-31 01:16:47 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 2b724da8d9 Remove f_closure slot of frameobject and use f_localsplus instead.
This change eliminates an extra malloc/free when a frame with free
variables is created.  Any cell vars or free vars are stored in
f_localsplus after the locals and before the stack.

eval_code2() fills in the appropriate values after handling
initialization of locals.

To track the size the frame has an f_size member that tracks the total
size of f_localsplus. It used to be implicitly f_nlocals + f_stacksize.
2001-01-29 22:51:52 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 64949cb753 PEP 227 implementation
The majority of the changes are in the compiler.  The mainloop changes
primarily to implement the new opcodes and to pass a function's
closure to eval_code2().  Frames and functions got new slots to hold
the closure.

Include/compile.h
    Add co_freevars and co_cellvars slots to code objects.
    Update PyCode_New() to take freevars and cellvars as arguments
Include/funcobject.h
    Add func_closure slot to function objects.
    Add GetClosure()/SetClosure() functions (and corresponding
    macros) for getting at the closure.
Include/frameobject.h
    PyFrame_New() now takes a closure.
Include/opcode.h
    Add four new opcodes: MAKE_CLOSURE, LOAD_CLOSURE, LOAD_DEREF,
    STORE_DEREF.
    Remove comment about old requirement for opcodes to fit in 7
    bits.
compile.c
    Implement changes to code objects for co_freevars and co_cellvars.

    Modify symbol table to use st_cur_name (string object for the name
    of the current scope) and st_cur_children (list of nested blocks).
    Also define st_nested, which might more properly be called
    st_cur_nested.  Add several DEF_XXX flags to track def-use
    information for free variables.

    New or modified functions of note:
    com_make_closure(struct compiling *, PyCodeObject *)
        Emit LOAD_CLOSURE opcodes as needed to pass cells for free
        variables into nested scope.
    com_addop_varname(struct compiling *, int, char *)
        Emits opcodes for LOAD_DEREF and STORE_DEREF.
    get_ref_type(struct compiling *, char *name)
        Return NAME_CLOSURE if ref type is FREE or CELL
    symtable_load_symbols(struct compiling *)
        Decides what variables are cell or free based on def-use info.
        Can now raise SyntaxError if nested scopes are mixed with
        exec or from blah import *.
    make_scope_info(PyObject *, PyObject *, int, int)
        Helper functions for symtable scope stack.
    symtable_update_free_vars(struct symtable *)
        After a code block has been analyzed, it must check each of
        its children for free variables that are not defined in the
        block.  If a variable is free in a child and not defined in
        the parent, then it is defined by block the enclosing the
        current one or it is a global.  This does the right logic.
    symtable_add_use() is now a macro for symtable_add_def()
    symtable_assign(struct symtable *, node *)
        Use goto instead of for (;;)

    Fixed bug in symtable where name of keyword argument in function
    call was treated as assignment in the scope of the call site. Ex:
        def f():
            g(a=2) # a was considered a local of f

ceval.c
    eval_code2() now take one more argument, a closure.
    Implement LOAD_CLOSURE, LOAD_DEREF, STORE_DEREF, MAKE_CLOSURE>

    Also: When name error occurs for global variable, report that the
    name was global in the error mesage.

Objects/frameobject.c
    Initialize f_closure to be a tuple containing space for cellvars
    and freevars.  f_closure is NULL if neither are present.
Objects/funcobject.c
    Add support for func_closure.
Python/import.c
    Change the magic number.
Python/marshal.c
    Track changes to code objects.

Guido van Rossum 18d4d8f71d Two changes to from...import:
1) "from M import X" now works even if M is not a real module; it's
   basically a getattr() operation with AttributeError exceptions
   changed into ImportError.

2) "from M import *" now looks for M.__all__ to decide which names to
   import; if M.__all__ doesn't exist, it uses M.__dict__.keys() but
   filters out names starting with '_' as before.  Whether or not
   __all__ exists, there's no restriction on the type of M.

Fred Drake 1a7aab70d1 When a PyCFunction that takes only positional parameters is called with
an empty keywords dictionary (via apply() or the extended call syntax),
the keywords dict should be ignored.  If the keywords dict is not empty,
TypeError should be raised.  (Between the restructuring of the call
machinery and this patch, an empty dict in this situation would trigger
a SystemError via PyErr_BadInternalCall().)

Added regression tests to detect errors for this.
2001-01-04 22:33:02 +00:00
Jeremy Hylton 5282044be7 Revised implementation of CALL_FUNCTION and friends.
More revision still needed.

Much of the code that was in the mainloop was moved to a series of
helper functions.  PyEval_CallObjectWithKeywords was split into two
parts.  The first part now only does argument handling.  The second
part is now named call_object and delegates the call to a
call_(function,method,etc.) helper.

XXX The call_XXX helper functions should be replaced with tp_call
functions for the respective types.

The CALL_FUNCTION implementation contains three kinds of optimization:
1. fast_cfunction and fast_function are called when the arguments on
   the stack can be passed directly to eval_code2() without copying
   them into a tuple.
2. PyCFunction objects are dispatched immediately, because they are
   presumed to occur more often than anything else.
3. Bound methods are dispatched inline.  The method object contains a
   pointer to the function object that will be called.  The function
   is called from within the mainloop, which may allow optimization #1
   to be used, too.

The extened call implementation -- f(*args) and f(**kw) -- are
implemented as a separate case in the mainloop.  This allows the
common case of normal function calls to execute without wasting time
on checks for extended calls, although it does introduce a small
amount of code duplication.

Also, the unused final argument of eval_code2() was removed.  This is
probably the last trace of the access statement :-).

Jeremy Hylton 6b4ec5135b Fix for SF bug #117241
When a method is called with no regular arguments and * args, defer
the first arg is subclass check until after the * args have been
expanded.

N.B. The CALL_FUNCTION implementation is getting really hairy; should
review it to see if it can be simplified.

Tim Peters 35ba689cab Attempt to fix bogus gcc -Wall warnings reported by Marc-Andre Lemburg,
by making the DUP_TOPX code utterly straightforward.  This also gets rid

Fred Drake d5fadf75e4 Rationalize use of limits.h, moving the inclusion to Python.h.
Add definitions of INT_MAX and LONG_MAX to pyport.h.
Remove includes of limits.h and conditional definitions of INT_MAX
and LONG_MAX elsewhere.

This closes SourceForge patch #101659 and bug #115323.

Marc-André Lemburg d1ba443206 This patch adds a new Python C API called PyString_AsStringAndSize()
which implements the automatic conversion from Unicode to a string
object using the default encoding.

The new API is then put to use to have eval() and exec accept
Unicode objects as code parameter. This closes bugs #110924
and #113890.

As side-effect, the traditional C APIs PyString_Size() and
PyString_AsString() will also accept Unicode objects as
parameters.

Thomas Wouters dd13e4f91f Replace the run-time 'future-bytecode-stream-inspection' hack to find out

IMPORT_NAME.

Fred Drake ef8ace3a6f Charles G. Waldman <cgw@fnal.gov>:
Add the EXTENDED_ARG opcode to the virtual machine, allowing 32-bit
arguments to opcodes instead of being forced to stick to the 16-bit
limit.  This is especially useful for machine-generated code, which
can be too long for the SET_LINENO parameter to fit into 16 bits.

is no test-case for this bug, yet, but this is what it looked like:

from encodings import cp1006, cp1026
ImportError: cannot import name cp1026

'__import__' was called with only the first name in the 'arguments' list.

There is a slight change in semantics for 'from module import name' (it will
now honour the 'global' keyword) but only in cases that are explicitly
undocumented.

comments, docstrings or error messages. I fixed two minor things in
test_winreg.py ("didn't" -> "Didn't" and "Didnt" -> "Didn't").

There is a minor style issue involved: Guido seems to have preferred English
grammar (behaviour, honour) in a couple places. This patch changes that to
American, which is the more prominent style in the source. I prefer English
myself, so if English is preferred, I'd be happy to supply a patch myself ;)

"""
Running "test_extcall" repeatedly results in memory leaks.

One of these can't be fixed (at least not easily!), it happens since
this code:

def saboteur(**kw):
    kw['x'] = locals()
d = {}
saboteur(a=1, **d)

creates a circular reference - d['x']['d']==d

The others are due to some missing decrefs in ceval.c, fixed by the
patch attached below.

Note:  I originally wrote this without the "goto", just adding the
missing decref's where needed.  But I think the goto is justified in
keeping the executable code size of ceval as small as possible.

syncing even when an exception is raised (since a partial effect
should still be synced).

Guido van Rossum 25da5bebd8 Fix PR117. The error message is "keywords must be strings". Perhaps
not as descriptive as what Barry suggests, but this also catches the
(in my opinion important) case where some other C code besides apply()
constructs a kwdict that doesn't have the right format.  All the other
possibilities of getting it wrong (non-dict, wrong keywords etc) are
already caught so this makes sense to check here.

Guido van Rossum 8746082175 Patch by Tim Peters:
Introduce a new builtin exception, UnboundLocalError, raised when ceval.c
tries to retrieve or delete a local name that isn't bound to a value.
Currently raises NameError, which makes this behavior a FAQ since the same
error is raised for "missing" global names too:  when the user has a global
of the same name as the unbound local, NameError makes no sense to them.
Even in the absence of shadowing, knowing whether a bogus name is local or
global is a real aid to quick understanding.

Example:

D:\src\PCbuild>type local.py
x = 42

def f():
    print x
    x = 13
    return x

f()

D:\src\PCbuild>python local.py
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "local.py", line 8, in ?
    f()
  File "local.py", line 4, in f
    print x
UnboundLocalError: x

D:\src\PCbuild>

Note that UnboundLocalError is a subclass of NameError, for compatibility
with existing class-exception code that may be trying to catch this as a
NameError.  Unfortunately, I see no way to make this wholly compatible
with -X (see comments in bltinmodule.c):  under -X, [UnboundLocalError
is an alias for NameError --GvR].

[The ceval.c patch differs slightly from the second version that Tim
submitted; I decided not to raise UnboundLocalError for DELETE_NAME,
only for DELETE_LOCAL.  DELETE_NAME is only generated at the module
level, and since at that level a NameError is raised for referencing
an undefined name, it should also be raised for deleting one.]
