This commit removes all parts of code associated with the existing MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE optimisation option, including the -mcache-lookup-bc option to mpy-cross. This feature originally provided a significant performance boost for Unix, but wasn't able to be enabled for MCU targets (due to frozen bytecode), and added significant extra complexity to generating and distributing .mpy files. The equivalent performance gain is now provided by the combination of MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE (which has been enabled on the unix port in the previous commit). It's hard to provide precise performance numbers, but tests have been run on a wide variety of architectures (x86-64, ARM Cortex, Aarch64, RISC-V, xtensa) and they all generally agree on the qualitative improvements seen by the combination of MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE. For example, on a "quiet" Linux x64 environment (i3-5010U @ 2.10GHz) the change from CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, to LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH combined with MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE is: diff of scores (higher is better) N=2000 M=2000 bccache -> attrmapcache diff diff% (error%) bm_chaos.py 13742.56 -> 13905.67 : +163.11 = +1.187% (+/-3.75%) bm_fannkuch.py 60.13 -> 61.34 : +1.21 = +2.012% (+/-2.11%) bm_fft.py 113083.20 -> 114793.68 : +1710.48 = +1.513% (+/-1.57%) bm_float.py 256552.80 -> 243908.29 : -12644.51 = -4.929% (+/-1.90%) bm_hexiom.py 521.93 -> 625.41 : +103.48 = +19.826% (+/-0.40%) bm_nqueens.py 197544.25 -> 217713.12 : +20168.87 = +10.210% (+/-3.01%) bm_pidigits.py 8072.98 -> 8198.75 : +125.77 = +1.558% (+/-3.22%) misc_aes.py 17283.45 -> 16480.52 : -802.93 = -4.646% (+/-0.82%) misc_mandel.py 99083.99 -> 128939.84 : +29855.85 = +30.132% (+/-5.88%) misc_pystone.py 83860.10 -> 82592.56 : -1267.54 = -1.511% (+/-2.27%) misc_raytrace.py 21490.40 -> 22227.23 : +736.83 = +3.429% (+/-1.88%) This shows that the new optimisations are at least as good as the existing inline-bytecode-caching, and are sometimes much better (because the new ones apply caching to a wider variety of map lookups). The new optimisations can also benefit code generated by the native emitter, because they apply to the runtime rather than the generated code. The improvement for the native emitter when LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE are enabled is (same Linux environment as above): diff of scores (higher is better) N=2000 M=2000 native -> nat-attrmapcache diff diff% (error%) bm_chaos.py 14130.62 -> 15464.68 : +1334.06 = +9.441% (+/-7.11%) bm_fannkuch.py 74.96 -> 76.16 : +1.20 = +1.601% (+/-1.80%) bm_fft.py 166682.99 -> 168221.86 : +1538.87 = +0.923% (+/-4.20%) bm_float.py 233415.23 -> 265524.90 : +32109.67 = +13.756% (+/-2.57%) bm_hexiom.py 628.59 -> 734.17 : +105.58 = +16.796% (+/-1.39%) bm_nqueens.py 225418.44 -> 232926.45 : +7508.01 = +3.331% (+/-3.10%) bm_pidigits.py 6322.00 -> 6379.52 : +57.52 = +0.910% (+/-5.62%) misc_aes.py 20670.10 -> 27223.18 : +6553.08 = +31.703% (+/-1.56%) misc_mandel.py 138221.11 -> 152014.01 : +13792.90 = +9.979% (+/-2.46%) misc_pystone.py 85032.14 -> 105681.44 : +20649.30 = +24.284% (+/-2.25%) misc_raytrace.py 19800.01 -> 23350.73 : +3550.72 = +17.933% (+/-2.79%) In summary, compared to MICROPY_OPT_CACHE_MAP_LOOKUP_IN_BYTECODE, the new MICROPY_OPT_LOAD_ATTR_FAST_PATH and MICROPY_OPT_MAP_LOOKUP_CACHE options: - are simpler; - take less code size; - are faster (generally); - work with code generated by the native emitter; - can be used on embedded targets with a small and constant RAM overhead; - allow the same .mpy bytecode to run on all targets. See #7680 for further discussion. And see also #7653 for a discussion about simplifying mpy-cross options. Signed-off-by: Jim Mussared <jim.mussared@gmail.com> |

README
This directory contains tests for various functionality areas of MicroPython. To run all stable tests, run "run-tests.py" script in this directory. Tests of capabilities not supported on all platforms should be written to check for the capability being present. If it is not, the test should merely output 'SKIP' followed by the line terminator, and call sys.exit() to raise SystemExit, instead of attempting to test the missing capability. The testing framework (run-tests.py in this directory, test_main.c in qemu_arm) recognizes this as a skipped test. There are a few features for which this mechanism cannot be used to condition a test. The run-tests.py script uses small scripts in the feature_check directory to check whether each such feature is present, and skips the relevant tests if not. Tests are generally verified by running the test both in MicroPython and in CPython and comparing the outputs. If the output differs the test fails and the outputs are saved in a .out and a .exp file respectively. For tests that cannot be run in CPython, for example because they use the machine module, a .exp file can be provided next to the test's .py file. A convenient way to generate that is to run the test, let it fail (because CPython cannot run it) and then copy the .out file (but not before checking it manually!) When creating new tests, anything that relies on float support should go in the float/ subdirectory. Anything that relies on import x, where x is not a built-in module, should go in the import/ subdirectory.
