Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores

    • Removed a legacy bytecode instruction and its runtime handling, simplifying the instruction set and trimming related formatting/diagnostic paths.
    • Simplified opcode metadata/name generation logic by removing redundant code paths.
    • CI validation tightened to fail when generated metadata is out of date.

  • Breaking Changes

    • Potential bytecode compatibility impact for programs or artifacts that relied on the removed instruction; affected items should be regenerated or recompiled.

✏️ Tip: You can customize this high-level summary in your review settings.

πŸ“ Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Removed the RustPython-only Reverse { amount: Arg<u32> } opcode variant from the Instruction enum, deleted its execution handling in the VM, and removed related stack-effect, disassembly/formatting, and dead-code paths; also fixed opcode-name generation and inverted a CI workflow check.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Change Summary
Bytecode instruction definition
crates/compiler-core/src/bytecode.rs		 Removed Reverse { amount: Arg<u32> } from Instruction; removed its TryFrom<u8> mapping, stack-effect branch, and disassembly/formatting entry.
Frame execution handler
crates/vm/src/frame.rs		 Removed Reverse handling from ExecutingFrame::execute_instruction (stack slicing and in-place reversal logic deleted).
Opcode metadata & tooling
scripts/generate_opcode_metadata.py		 Removed redundant/alternative return paths in Opcode.cpython_name, consolidating name derivation to a single code path.
CI workflow
.github/workflows/ci.yaml		 Inverted the condition in the "Ensure Lib/_opcode_metadata is updated" step so the job fails when the working tree is dirty (non-empty git status --porcelain).

Poem

πŸ‡ I nudged the opcodes, gave them a glance,

The Reverse hop has hopped its last dance.
Stacks now flow in straighter streams,
I twitch my nose and polish dreams.
Carrots for tidy, humming machines! πŸŽ‰

334-339: LGTM! Correct enforcement of metadata synchronization.

The inverted condition now properly fails the CI when the opcode metadata generation produces uncommitted changes, ensuring developers commit updated metadata alongside opcode definition changes. This is a standard best practice for keeping generated files synchronized with source code.
