CPython bytecode changes ======================== -* The bytecode now contains inline cache entries, which take the form of - :opcode:`CACHE` instructions.

Instead, they - indicate failure with :const:`None` (where a tuple of extracted values would - otherwise be). +* :opcode:`COPY_FREE_VARS`, + which avoids needing special caller-side code for closures. -* Replace several stack manipulation instructions (``DUP_TOP``, ``DUP_TOP_TWO``, - ``ROT_TWO``, ``ROT_THREE``, ``ROT_FOUR``, and ``ROT_N``) with new - :opcode:`COPY` and :opcode:`SWAP` instructions. +* :opcode:`JUMP_BACKWARD_NO_INTERRUPT`, + for use in certain loops where handling interrupts is undesirable. -* Replaced :opcode:`JUMP_IF_NOT_EXC_MATCH` by :opcode:`CHECK_EXC_MATCH` which - performs the check but does not jump. +* :opcode:`MAKE_CELL`, to create :ref:`cell-objects`. -* Replaced :opcode:`JUMP_IF_NOT_EG_MATCH` by :opcode:`CHECK_EG_MATCH` which - performs the check but does not jump. +* :opcode:`CHECK_EG_MATCH` and :opcode:`PREP_RERAISE_STAR`, + to handle the :ref:`new exception groups and except* ` + added in :pep:`654`. -* Replaced :opcode:`JUMP_ABSOLUTE` by the relative :opcode:`JUMP_BACKWARD`. +* :opcode:`PUSH_EXC_INFO`, for use in exception handlers. -* Added :opcode:`JUMP_BACKWARD_NO_INTERRUPT`, which is used in certain loops where it - is undesirable to handle interrupts. +* :opcode:`RESUME`, a no-op, + for internal tracing, debugging and optimization checks. -* Replaced :opcode:`POP_JUMP_IF_TRUE` and :opcode:`POP_JUMP_IF_FALSE` by - the relative :opcode:`POP_JUMP_FORWARD_IF_TRUE`, :opcode:`POP_JUMP_BACKWARD_IF_TRUE`, - :opcode:`POP_JUMP_FORWARD_IF_FALSE` and :opcode:`POP_JUMP_BACKWARD_IF_FALSE`. -* Added :opcode:`POP_JUMP_FORWARD_IF_NOT_NONE`, :opcode:`POP_JUMP_BACKWARD_IF_NOT_NONE`, - :opcode:`POP_JUMP_FORWARD_IF_NONE` and :opcode:`POP_JUMP_BACKWARD_IF_NONE` - opcodes to speed up conditional jumps. +.. _whatsnew311-replaced-opcodes: -* :opcode:`JUMP_IF_TRUE_OR_POP` and :opcode:`JUMP_IF_FALSE_OR_POP` are now - relative rather than absolute. +Replaced opcodes +---------------- -* :opcode:`RESUME` has been added.
