+ Ordered and compact dictionaries
+ Better erno handling
+ all bugs from 2.4.0 are fixed
+ see http://doc.pypy.org/en/latest/release-2.5.0.html

Tue Sep 23 14:00:00 2014 mvyskocilAATTopensuse.org
- Update to 2.4.0
+ Bytearray operations no longer copy the bytearray unnecessarily
+ Added support for __getitem__, __setitem__, __getslice__,
__setslice__, and __len__ to RPython
+ Give the StringBuilder a more flexible internal structure, with
a chained list of strings instead of just one string. This
make it more efficient when building large strings, e.g. with
cStringIO().
+ Also, use systematically jit.conditional_call() instead of
regular branches. This lets the JIT make more linear code,
at the cost of forcing a bit more data (to be passed as
arguments to conditional_calls). I would expect the net
result to be a slight slow-down on some simple benchmarks
and a speed-up on bigger programs.
+ Change the executioncontext’s lookup to be done by reading
a thread- local variable (which is implemented in C using
‘__thread’ if possible, and pthread_getspecific() otherwise).
On Linux x86 and x86-64, the JIT backend has a special
optimization that lets it emit directly a single MOV from
a %gs- or %fs-based address. It seems actually to give a
good boost in performance.
+ A faster way to handle the GIL, particularly in JIT code.
The GIL is now a composite of two concepts: a global number
(it’s just set from 1 to 0 and back around CALL_RELEASE_GIL),
and a real mutex. If there are threads waiting to acquire the
GIL, one of them is actively checking the global number every
0.1 ms to 1 ms. Overall, JIT loops full of external function
calls now run a bit faster (if no thread was started yet), or
a lot faster (if threads were started already).
+ Optimize the errno handling in the JIT, notably around external
function calls. Linux-only.
+ Remove non-functioning ctypes.pyhonapi and ctypes.PyDLL, document
this incompatibility with cpython. Recast sys.dllhandle to an int.
+ Fix performance regression on ufunc(, ) in numpy.
+ Update our copies of py.test and pylib to versions 2.5.2
and 1.4.20, respectively.
+ Classes in the ast module are now distinct from structures
used by the compiler.
+ Fix issue #1861 - cpython compatability madness
- Refreshed patches:

* 006-always-log-stdout.patch

* pypy-curses.patch

* pypy-tcl-libs.patch

Wed Jul 9 14:00:00 2014 mvyskocilAATTopensuse.org
- Use rpm conditionals for build jobs definition instead of wrong
bash code - thanks scarabeus for noticing that

Wed Jun 25 14:00:00 2014 mvyskocilAATTopensuse.org
- Update to 2.3.1
+ Move builtin struct module to _struct to allow pypy \"-m idlelib.idle\"
+ Support compilation with gcc-4.9
+ Added support for the stdlib gdbm module via cffi
+ Annotator cleanups
+ Use argparse for packaging.py, and add third-party components to LICENSE file.
Also mention that gdbm is GPL. Do not crash the packaging process on
failure in CFFI or license-building, rather complete the build step and
return -1.
pypy 2.3:
+ Update stdlib to v2.7.6
+ Clean up numpy types, add newbyteorder functionality
+ JIT support for singlefloats on ARM using the hardfloat ABI
+ Better support for record numpy arrays
+ Use subclasses of SpaceOperation instead of SpaceOperator objects. Random
cleanups in flowspace and annotator.
+ adds support for the buffer= argument to the ndarray ctor
+ Remove multimethods on str/unicode/bytearray and make the implementations share code.
+ Speed up generators that don’t yield inside try or wait blocks by skipping
unnecessary cleanup.
+ Remove FlowObjSpace. Improve cohesion between rpython.flowspace and rpython.annotator.
+ mapdicts keep track of whether or not an attribute is every assigned to multiple times.
If it’s only assigned once then an elidable lookup is used when possible.
+ Simplify implementation of NonConstant.
+ Kill some guards and operations in JIT traces by adding integer bounds propagation for
getfield_(raw|gc) and getarrayitem_(raw|gc).
+ Optimize away INT_AND with constant mask of 1s that fully cover the bitrange of other operand.
+ Propagate appropriate bounds through INT_(OR|XOR|AND) operations if the operands are positive
to kill some guards
+ kills int/long/smalllong/bool multimethods
+ Cleanup micronumpy module
+ In a lot of places CPython allows objects with __int__ and __float__ instead of actual ints
and floats, while until now pypy disallowed them. We fix it by making space.{int_w,float_w,etc.}
accepting those objects by default, and disallowing conversions only when explicitly needed.
+ Fix for getarrayitem_gc_pure optimization
+ Implements SimpleRangeListStrategy for case range(n) where n is a positive number. Makes
some traces nicer by getting rid of multiplication for calculating loop counter and
propagates that n > 0 further to get rid of guards.
+ Provide an exit status for popen’ed RFiles via pclose
+ Support for virtualizing raw_store/raw_load operations
+ Separate the interp-level buffer API from the buffer type exposed to app-level. The
Buffer class is now used by W_MemoryView and W_Buffer, which is not present in Python 3.
Previously W_Buffer was an alias to Buffer, which was wrappable itself.
+ and many more, see http://doc.pypy.org/en/latest/whatsnew-2.3.0.html

- Update to 2.2
+ Our Garbage Collector is now \"incremental\". Pauses should take 5
miliseconds at maximum.
+ The JIT counters for hot core are decreased from time to time in
order to prevent JITing of rarely executed code.
+ NumPy has been split: now PyPy only contains the core module,
called _numpypy. The numpy module itself has been moved to
https://bitbucket.org/pypy/numpy and numpypy disappeared.
+ Non-inlined calls have less overhead.
+ Things that use sys.set_trace are now JITted (like coverage).
+ JSON decoding is now very fast (JSON encoding was already very fast).
+ Various buffer copying methods experience speedups (like list-of-ints
to int[] buffer from cffi).
+ We finally wrote (hopefully) all the missing os.xxx() functions, including
os.startfile() on Windows and a handful of rare ones on Posix.
+ numpy has a rudimentary C API that cooperates with cpyext.
- do not install all platform dirs, only plat-linux2 and plat-generic
- split pypy-libs into more subpackages to reduce a size and dependencies

* -idle containst idle

Mon May 27 14:00:00 2013 mvyskocilAATTsuse.com
- Update to 2.0.2
+ fixes a crash in the JIT when calling external C functions (with
ctypes/cffi) in a multithreaded context.
+ fix an occasional crash in the JIT that ends in RPython Fatal error:
NotImplementedError.
+ id(x) is now always a positive number (except on int/float/long/complex).
This fixes an issue in _sqlite.py (mostly for 32-bit Linux).
+ fix crashes of callback-from-C-functions (with cffi) when used together
with Stackless features, on asmgcc (i.e. Linux only). Now gevent should work
better.
+ work around an eventlet issue with socket._decref_socketios().

Mon May 13 14:00:00 2013 mvyskocilAATTopensuse.org
- Update to 2.0 (final)
+ JIT now supports stackless features, that is greenlets and stacklets. This
means that JIT can now optimize the code that switches the context. It
enables running eventlet and gevent on PyPy (although gevent requires some
special support that’s not quite finished, read below).
+ This is the first PyPy release that includes cffi as a core library.
Version 0.6 comes included in the PyPy library. cffi has seen a lot of
adoption among library authors and we believe it’s the best way to wrap C
libaries. You can see examples of cffi usage in _curses.py and _sqlite3.py in
the PyPy source code.
- brp-python-bytecompile is fixed, so it does produce all needed .pyc files
- add a basic test to ensure .pyc files were produced

- Fix some typos and disable debuginfo handling (for now)

Sun Feb 10 13:00:00 2013 saschpeAATTsuse.de
- Update to version 2.0b1:
+ cffi is officially supported by PyPy.
+ ARM is now an officially supported processor architecture. PyPy now work
on soft-float ARM/Linux builds. Currently ARM processors supporting the
ARMv7 and later ISA that include a floating-point unit are supported.
+ This release contains the latest Python standard library 2.7.3 and is
fully compatible with Python 2.7.3.
+ It does not however contain hash randomization, since the solution present
in CPython is not solving the problem anyway.
+ gc.get_referrers() is now faster.
+ Various numpy improvements. The list includes:
- axis argument support in many places
- full support for fancy indexing
- complex128 and complex64 dtypes
+ JIT hooks are now a powerful tool to introspect the JITting process that PyPy performs.
+
*
*kwds usage is much faster in the typical scenario
+ operations on long objects are now as fast as in CPython (from roughly 2x slower)
- Reuse some Fedora patches
- Use _constraints file, we need >4G RAM on x86_64

Mon Jun 11 14:00:00 2012 saschpeAATTsuse.de
- Update to version 1.9:

* Many bugs were corrected for Windows 32 bit. This includes new
functionality to test the validity of file descriptors; and
correct handling of the calling convensions for ctypes.

* Improvements in cpyext, our emulator for CPython C extension modules.
For example PyOpenSSL should now work. We thank various people for help.
Sets now have strategies just like dictionaries. This means for example
that a set containing only ints will be more compact (and faster).

* A lot of progress on various aspects of numpypy. See the numpy-status
page for the automatic report.

* It is now possible to create and manipulate C-like structures using the
PyPy-only _ffi module. The advantage over using e.g. ctypes is that
_ffi is very JIT-friendly, and getting/setting of fields is translated
to few assembler instructions by the JIT. However, this is mostly intended
as a low-level backend to be used by more user-friendly FFI packages, and
the API might change in the future. Use it at your own risk.

* The non-x86 backends for the JIT are progressing but are still not
merged (ARMv7 and PPC64).

* JIT hooks for inspecting the created assembler code have been improved.

* See JIT hooks documentation for details.

* select.kqueue has been added (BSD).

* Handling of keyword arguments has been drastically improved in the best-case
scenario: proxy functions which simply forwards
*args and
*
*kwargs
to another function now performs much better with the JIT.

* List comprehension has been improved.
