Continues the compiler parity work from #8550, over the same axes: code objects, ast, symtable, and the SyntaxErrors the parser and the compiler raise.

Code objects

  • all(await x for x in xs) and all(x async for x in xs) compiled to a plain call: the name(genexpr) inlining was skipped whenever the generator's symbol table was a coroutine, though FOR_ITER raises the same TypeError the builtin does.
  • A bare generator expression in a class header and a format spec nested more than two deep are rejected; both parse here, and the reference grammar has no rule for either.
  • A generic function's type params scope always gets a .defaults slot, so co_varnames and co_nlocals match whether or not the signature has defaults.
  • An unparenthesized sole generator argument is decided by the parser's parenthesized flag rather than by scanning the source, which read _sum((d := x - c) * d for x in data) wrong.
  • Empty f-string fragments are dropped unconditionally; a concatenation of only empty fragments loads its empty string at the whole concatenation.
  • A byte order mark in source handed over as text is kept and reported as an invalid non-printable character.
  • eval mode's RETURN_VALUE carries no location, so each reaching path's copy takes the location of the branch that jumps to it; an interactive CALL_INTRINSIC_1(Print) sits at the expression statement.
  • single mode emits the __conditional_annotations__ cell it was missing.
  • co_stacksize is floored at 1.

Across Lib/, the 1729 files that compile on both sides agree on opcodes, constants, flags, variable names, names and exception tables, and on instruction positions in all but 7 files, where a compound statement whose body ends in a trailing ; ends one column short.

ast

  • Lone surrogates survive in string, f-string and t-string literal values, read from the source; ConstantLiteral::Str holds Wtf8Buf.
  • {expr=} interpolations get their leading text as a Constant and default their conversion to repr.
  • Folded consecutive literals span from the first to the last.
  • A format spec's range takes the : only when the parser left it out.
  • A node end landing on a line start is that line, column 0.
  • A generator expression written straight into a call's parentheses takes their range, decided in the preprocess pass.

symtable

  • An import registers as DEF_IMPORT alone and an annotated parameter as a plain parameter.
  • A global declaration is recorded in the module block too, and a name an enclosing global covers resolves as an implicit global, so a class body reading it emits LOAD_NAME.
  • A name bound nowhere resolves as an implicit global.
  • A binding is required only for a name an explicit nonlocal declared.
  • A generator expression's block is named genexpr; the code object keeps <genexpr>.
  • A def/class block is located at its keyword rather than at the first decorator.
  • from __future__ placement is checked while building the table, and symtable.symtable() does the same docstring stripping and future feature validation the compiler does.

SyntaxError

  • CodegenError and SymbolTableError carry an end_location, so 'await' outside function and its siblings set end_lineno/end_offset instead of leaving them None.
  • Parser diagnostics use the reference wording: illegal target for annotation, and plain invalid syntax for UnexpectedExpressionToken and the list-recovery family.
  • Parser error columns are counted in characters rather than in bytes, so a non-ASCII line no longer shifts them, along with five span rules (an error between two tokens covers one character; a was never closed bracket ends at column 0; an unterminated string ends where it starts; leading zeros span the run of zeros; a digitless exponent is blamed on the digit before it).

Sweeping 335,682 snippets in three modes, the messages and positions that differ drop from 2,914 to 441. What is left is outside the compiler: 354 are illegal target for annotation, which the parser accepts as an AnnAssign; 65 are single mode EOF positions, reported at column 0 because that mode substitutes a synthetic NEWLINE for the ENDMARKER; the rest are f-string messages and spans the parser words its own way.

Other

  • type(...).__name__ and types.EllipsisType.__name__ read ellipsis.
  • repr(code) gains the comma after the address and stops escaping the filename through Rust's Debug.

Nine expectedFailure markers come off: six in test_dis and one each in test_exceptions, test_fstring and test_json.test_default, along with a doctest one in test_syntax.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved syntax-error locations with accurate start and end positions, including malformed numbers, strings, brackets, annotations, and multibyte text.
    • Preserved source filenames in AST parsing and compiler diagnostics.
    • Improved handling of UTF-8 byte-order marks and unsupported grammar.
    • Fixed generator-expression source ranges and stack-depth metadata.
    • Improved preservation of unusual Unicode characters in strings, f-strings, and template strings, including debug interpolations.
  • Compatibility

    • Exposed the ellipsis type under the standard name ellipsis.
    • Improved future-import validation and generic type-parameter handling.

`maybe_optimize_function_call()` reserves a `skip_optimization` label for
every `name(genexpr)` call and, for `all`, `any` and `tuple`, emits an
identity guard against the builtin plus an inlined loop. The port skipped
both whenever the generator expression's symbol table was a coroutine, so
`all(await x for x in xs)` and `all(x async for x in xs)` compiled to a
plain call.

An `await` or an `async for` in the generator does not disqualify the
shape: the inlined `FOR_ITER` raises the same `TypeError` that calling the
builtin on an async generator raises, which is what
test_builtin test_builtin_call_async_genexpr_no_crash asserts.

This was the last code-level difference against CPython across `Lib/`:
comparing every file's code tree by structure, opcode and constant value
(qualnames aside, which moved in 3.14.3+, and set constants compared by
value rather than by hash order) now matches on 1720 of 1720 comparable
files, up from 1719.

`type(...).__name__`, its `__qualname__`, and `types.EllipsisType.__name__`
read `EllipsisType`.

Reject a bare generator expression in a class header and a format spec
nested more than two deep. Both parse here; the reference grammar has no
rule for either, since a class header only takes `arguments` and the
tokenizer runs out of nesting levels at the third format spec.

Scan the interpolations a format spec carries inside another format spec,
so `f"{x:{y:{z}}}"` reaches `z` when building the symbol table.

Give every generic function's type params scope a `.defaults` slot,
whether or not the signature has any default, so `co_varnames` and
`co_nlocals` match. Classes and type aliases keep theirs empty.

Decide an unparenthesized sole generator argument by the parser's
`parenthesized` flag instead of scanning the source for the shape of its
element. `_sum((d := x - c) * d for x in data)` opens with a parenthesized
group the rest of the expression continues, which the scan read as the
generator's own parentheses and left the call's out of its range.

Drop empty f-string fragments unconditionally. A concatenation whose
fragments are all empty now loads its empty string at the whole
concatenation instead of at whichever fragments happened to be plain
string literals.

Keep a byte order mark in source handed over as text, and report it as an
invalid non-printable character. Reading a file to freeze strips it, as
the encoded-bytes path already did.

Carry the filename into the errors `compile(..., PyCF_ONLY_AST)` raises;
they reported `<unknown>` or an empty name.

Across `Lib/`, the 1729 files that compile on both sides now agree on
opcodes, constants, flags, variable names, names, and exception tables,
and on instruction positions in all but 7 files, where a compound
statement whose body ends in a trailing `;` ends one column short.

- Keep lone surrogates in string, f-string and t-string literal values by
  reading such a literal from its source; the literal-value helpers move
  out of `Compiler` into `rustpython_codegen` and `ConstantLiteral::Str`
  holds `Wtf8Buf`.
- Give `{expr=}` interpolations their leading text as a Constant and
  default their conversion to `repr`, in both f-strings and t-strings.
- Span folded consecutive literals from the first of them to the last.
- Take the `:` into a format spec's range only when the parser left it
  out, instead of always widening by one.
- Report a node end that lands on a line start as that line, column 0.
- Give a generator expression written straight into a call's parentheses
  the range of those parentheses, in the preprocess pass, replacing
  codegen's source scan and `_ast`'s one-column adjustment.
- Drop the expectedFailure on test_ast_line_numbers_with_parentheses.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-opus-5
- Register an import as `DEF_IMPORT` alone, and an annotated parameter as
  a plain parameter, so `import x; global x` is accepted and annotated
  parameters are not reported as annotated names.
- Record a `global` declaration in the module block as well, and resolve a
  name a `global` in an enclosing scope covers as an implicit global, so a
  class body reading such a name emits `LOAD_NAME`.
- Resolve a name bound nowhere as an implicit global instead of leaving
  its scope unknown.
- Require a binding only for a name an explicit `nonlocal` declared;
  a free variable that reached the scope any other way already resolved.
- Name a generator expression's block `genexpr`; the code object keeps
  `<genexpr>`.
- Locate a `def`/`class` block at its keyword rather than at the first
  decorator. `decorated_definition_range()` moves from `Compiler` to
  `rustpython_codegen` for that.
- Carry a comprehension symbol's flags over when inlining it into a parent
  entry that only holds a free variable propagated from a child.
- Leave `__conditional_annotations__` out of an annotation block's
  symbols and have the compiler cook up the free variable, which places
  it after the ones the symbol table supplies.
- Check `from __future__` placement while building the symbol table, and
  give `symtable.symtable()` the same docstring stripping and future
  feature validation the compiler does.
- Floor `co_stacksize` at 1.

Leave `eval` mode's `RETURN_VALUE` without a location, so the exit block
is duplicated per reaching path and each copy carries the location of the
branch that jumps to it. `a and b` now ends with two returns as it does
in CPython, and `a if b else c` gives the first one the `a` it returns.

Emit an interactive `CALL_INTRINSIC_1(Print)` at the expression statement
rather than wherever the expression left the location, which differ for
`(a := 10)` and `f'{0:fz}'`.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-opus-5
`compile_program_single()` emitted the `__conditional_annotations__` set
and its name accesses but never added the cell that holds it, so a module
compiled in `single` mode was missing the `MAKE_CELL` and the cellvar that
the same source gets in `exec` mode.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-opus-5
`CodegenError` and `SymbolTableError` now carry an `end_location`
alongside `location`, and `CompileError::python_end_location()` returns
it, so errors such as "'await' outside function" set `end_lineno` and
`end_offset` instead of leaving them None.

`SymbolTableBuilder::error_ranged()` builds both positions from a range,
replacing the inline `source_location()` calls at the error sites.

Drop the `expectedFailure` on
`test_exceptions.SyntaxErrorTests.test_file_source`, which now passes.

Assisted-by: Claude Code:claude-opus-5
`InvalidAnnotatedAssignmentTarget` becomes "illegal target for
annotation", `UnexpectedExpressionToken` becomes plain "invalid syntax"
rather than prefixing the parser's text, and the list-recovery
diagnostics ("Expected an expression or a '}'" and its siblings) join the
two that already mapped to "invalid syntax".

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The compiler now reports precise source spans, validates unsupported grammar, preserves WTF-8 string data, updates symbol analysis, and aligns generator-expression, f-string, template-string, stack-depth, and builtin behavior with reference semantics.

Changes

Compiler and runtime compatibility

AST conversion preserves WTF-8 data and source ranges, handles debug interpolations, and updates code-object and builtin compatibility details.
Scope and code-generation regression coverage
extra_tests/snippets/syntax_try.py, crates/codegen/src/compile.rs
Tests cover nested scope handling after early exits, generator expressions, finally blocks, async generator optimization, source ranges, empty f-strings, and generic type-parameter layout.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 73f3f

The PR substantially improves CPython parity for code objects, ASTs, symbol tables, and syntax errors. Merge is reasonable with owner awareness that programmatic AST inputs may not preserve lone surrogates and formatting checks may still need to be fixed or confirmed.

A syntax error the parser reports counts its columns in characters, so
`source_location()` converts with UTF-32 rather than UTF-8; an offset
inside a character walks back to where that character starts.

Spans the parser reported differently:

- an error between two tokens covered nothing, and now covers one
  character, since the narrowest token still covers one
- a "was never closed" bracket ends at column 0
- an unterminated string literal ends where it starts
- "leading zeros in decimal integer literals" spans the run of zeros
- an exponent with no digits and no sign is blamed on the digit before
  the exponent letter, which the tokenizer puts back

Search for a definition keyword token.

Line 120 can match def or class inside a trailing decorator comment. For @decorator # def followed by def f():, this function starts the definition range inside the comment. This produces incorrect AST source locations.

Use a token-aware search, or require a real keyword token at the definition position.

RustPython ruff 0.15.19-rustpython rustpython-ruff_python_ast ConstantValue InterpolatedStringLiteralElement source

💡 Result:

In the context of the RustPython and Ruff ecosystem, the structures identified—InterpolatedStringLiteralElement, InterpolatedStringElement, and ConstantValue—are internal components of the Rust-based abstract syntax tree (AST) representation used by Ruff [1][2][3]. Version 0.15.19-rustpython refers to a specific tagged release of the RustPython fork of Ruff's AST and parser crates [1]. These crates are leveraged by RustPython to provide Python AST metadata and parsing capabilities [1]. Key structural components within rustpython_ruff_python_ast include: 1. InterpolatedStringElement: An enum that represents elements within an interpolated string (f-string) [3][4]. It variants include: - Interpolation(InterpolatedElement): Represents an expression within braces [3][4]. - Literal(InterpolatedStringLiteralElement): Represents a static string literal part of the f-string [3][4]. 2. InterpolatedStringLiteralElement: A struct that contains the actual text value of a string literal segment [5]. In the Ruff/RustPython implementation, this is typically defined to hold a value (of type Box) representing the content of that specific string part [5]. 3. ConstantValue: While distinct from the f-string specific nodes, ConstantValue is generally used within the broader Ruff AST to represent various Python constant types (strings, numbers, etc.) during parsing and static analysis [6][7]. These structures align with how modern Python ASTs (such as those introduced in Python 3.14 for template strings) handle concatenated literal parts and interpolated expressions [6][8][9]. While standard Python (CPython) uses classes like ast.FormattedValue and ast.JoinedStr [7], the Ruff/RustPython crates provide a high-performance, Rust-native representation of this tree for static analysis purposes [2]. Top results: [1][3][5][6]

Preserve WTF-8 values during AST lowering.

constant_data_to_ast_constant_value converts lone surrogates to U+FFFD through Wtf8’s Display implementation. The f-string and template-string paths also use to_string_lossy. Carry Wtf8Buf through the compiler-facing representation at all three sites. Add a regression test that compiles an AST containing U+D800 and checks that the resulting constant retains WTF-8 bytes ED A0 80.

instead of converting lone surrogates to U+FFFD by carrying Wtf8Buf through the
compiler-facing representation at constant_data_to_ast_constant_value in
crates/vm/src/stdlib/_ast/constant.rs:552-556 and the f-string and
template-string conversion sites in crates/vm/src/stdlib/_ast/string.rs:526 and
1004. Add a regression test compiling an AST containing U+D800 and verify the
resulting constant retains bytes ED A0 80.

An early exit from a try block emits an extra copy of the finally body.
Nested scopes are handed out by position, and the cursors still sit inside
the try block's own run of scopes there, so the copy took those instead of
the ones the finally body opens: a generator expression got a sibling's
symbol table and raised "the symbol 'k' must be present in the symbol
table", or, where the sibling was a named scope, built a code object with
no `.0` argument that raised UnboundLocalError when it ran.

Seek the cursors to the first scope beginning on or after the finally
body's first line before compiling the copy. The existing restore then
leaves the try statement's own copies starting from the same place.
