  PyCode_NewEmpty:
  Most uses of PyCode_New found by http://www.google.com/codesearch?q=PyCode_New
  are trying to build an empty code object, usually to put it in a dummy frame
  object. This patch adds a PyCode_NewEmpty wrapper which lets the user specify
  just the filename, function name, and first line number, instead of also
  requiring lots of code internals.

  Issue 5954, PyFrame_GetLineNumber:
  Most uses of PyCode_Addr2Line
  (http://www.google.com/codesearch?q=PyCode_Addr2Line) are just trying to get
  the line number of a specified frame, but there's no way to do that directly.
  Forcing people to go through the code object makes them know more about the
  guts of the interpreter than they should need.

  The remaining uses of PyCode_Addr2Line seem to be getting the line from a
  traceback (for example,
  http://www.google.com/codesearch/p?hl=en#u_9_nDrchrw/pygame-1.7.1release/src/base.c&q=PyCode_Addr2Line),
  which is replaced by the tb_lineno field.  So we may be able to deprecate
  PyCode_Addr2Line entirely for external use.

  Issue #6042:
  lnotab-based tracing is very complicated and isn't documented very well.  There
  were at least 3 comment blocks purporting to document co_lnotab, and none did a
  very good job. This patch unifies them into Objects/lnotab_notes.txt which
  tries to completely capture the current state of affairs.

  I also discovered that we've attached 2 layers of patches to the basic tracing
  scheme. The first layer avoids jumping to instructions that don't start a line,
  to avoid problems in if statements and while loops.  The second layer
  discovered that jumps backward do need to trace at instructions that don't
  start a line, so it added extra lnotab entries for 'while' and 'for' loops, and
  added a special case for backward jumps within the same line. I replaced these
  patches by just treating forward and backward jumps differently.

/* All about c_lnotab.
c_lnotab is an array of unsigned bytes disguised as a Python string. In -O
mode, SET_LINENO opcodes aren't generated, and bytecode offsets are mapped
to source code line #s (when needed for tracebacks) via c_lnotab instead.
The array is conceptually a list of
(bytecode offset increment, line number increment)
pairs. The details are important and delicate, best illustrated by example:
byte code offset source code line number
0 1
6 2
50 7
350 307
361 308
The first trick is that these numbers aren't stored, only the increments
from one row to the next (this doesn't really work, but it's a start):
0, 1, 6, 1, 44, 5, 300, 300, 11, 1
The second trick is that an unsigned byte can't hold negative values, or
values larger than 255, so (a) there's a deep assumption that byte code
offsets and their corresponding line #s both increase monotonically, and (b)
if at least one column jumps by more than 255 from one row to the next, more
than one pair is written to the table. In case #b, there's no way to know
from looking at the table later how many were written. That's the delicate
part. A user of c_lnotab desiring to find the source line number
corresponding to a bytecode address A should do something like this
lineno = addr = 0
for addr_incr, line_incr in c_lnotab:
addr += addr_incr
if addr > A:
return lineno
lineno += line_incr
In order for this to work, when the addr field increments by more than 255,
the line # increment in each pair generated must be 0 until the remaining addr
increment is < 256. So, in the example above, com_set_lineno should not (as
was actually done until 2.2) expand 300, 300 to 255, 255, 45, 45, but to
255, 0, 45, 255, 0, 45.

/* The theory of SET_LINENO-less tracing.
In a nutshell, we use the co_lnotab field of the code object
to tell when execution has moved onto a different line.
As mentioned above, the basic idea is so set things up so
that
*instr_lb <= frame->f_lasti < *instr_ub
is true so long as execution does not change lines.
This is all fairly simple. Digging the information out of
co_lnotab takes some work, but is conceptually clear.
Somewhat harder to explain is why we don't *always* call the
line trace function when the above test fails.
Consider this code:
1: def f(a):
2: if a:
3: print 1
4: else:
5: print 2
which compiles to this:
2 0 LOAD_FAST 0 (a)
3 JUMP_IF_FALSE 9 (to 15)
6 POP_TOP
3 7 LOAD_CONST 1 (1)
10 PRINT_ITEM
11 PRINT_NEWLINE
12 JUMP_FORWARD 6 (to 21)
>> 15 POP_TOP
5 16 LOAD_CONST 2 (2)
19 PRINT_ITEM
20 PRINT_NEWLINE
>> 21 LOAD_CONST 0 (None)
24 RETURN_VALUE
If 'a' is false, execution will jump to instruction at offset
15 and the co_lnotab will claim that execution has moved to
line 3. This is at best misleading. In this case we could
associate the POP_TOP with line 4, but that doesn't make
sense in all cases (I think).
What we do is only call the line trace function if the co_lnotab
indicates we have jumped to the *start* of a line, i.e. if the
current instruction offset matches the offset given for the
start of a line by the co_lnotab.
This also takes care of the situation where 'a' is true.
Execution will jump from instruction offset 12 to offset 21.
Then the co_lnotab would imply that execution has moved to line
5, which is again misleading.
Why do we set f_lineno when tracing? Well, consider the code
above when 'a' is true. If stepping through this with 'n' in
pdb, you would stop at line 1 with a "call" type event, then
line events on lines 2 and 3, then a "return" type event -- but
you would be shown line 5 during this event. This is a change
from the behaviour in 2.2 and before, and I've found it
confusing in practice. By setting and using f_lineno when
tracing, one can report a line number different from that
suggested by f_lasti on this one occasion where it's desirable.
