PyOS_AfterFork_Child() helper functions now return a PyStatus:
PyOS_AfterFork_Child() is now responsible to handle errors.
* Move _PySignal_AfterFork() to the internal C API
* Add #ifdef HAVE_FORK on _PyGILState_Reinit(), _PySignal_AfterFork()
and _PyInterpreterState_DeleteExceptMain().
Previously, the result could have been an instance of a subclass of int.
Also revert bpo-26202 and make attributes start, stop and step of the range
object having exact type int.
Add private function _PyNumber_Index() which preserves the old behavior
of PyNumber_Index() for performance to use it in the conversion functions
like PyLong_AsLong().
Pass PEP 573 defining_class to os.DirEntry methods. The module state
is now retrieve from defining_class rather than Py_TYPE(self), to
support subclasses (even if DirEntry doesn't support subclasses yet).
* Pass the module rather than defining_class to DirEntry_fetch_stat().
* Only get the module state once in _posix_clear(),
_posix_traverse() and _posixmodule_exec().
Convert posixmodule.c ("posix" or "nt" module) to the multiphase
initialization (PEP 489).
* Create the module using PyModuleDef_Init().
* Create ScandirIteratorType and DirEntryType with the new
PyType_FromModuleAndSpec() (PEP 573)
* Get the module state from ScandirIteratorType and DirEntryType with
the new PyType_GetModule() (PEP 573)
* Pass module to functions which access the module state.
* convert_sched_param() gets a new module parameter. It is now called
directly since Argument Clinic doesn't support passing the module
to an argument converter callback.
* Remove _posixstate_global macro.
An isolated subinterpreter cannot spawn threads, spawn a child
process or call os.fork().
* Add private _Py_NewInterpreter(isolated_subinterpreter) function.
* Add isolated=True keyword-only parameter to
_xxsubinterpreters.create().
* Allow again os.fork() in "non-isolated" subinterpreters.
On FreeBSD, os.closerange(fd_low, fd_high) now calls
closefrom(fd_low) if fd_high is greater than or equal to
sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX).
Initial patch by Ed Maste (emaste), Conrad Meyer (cem), Kyle Evans
(kevans) and Kubilay Kocak (koobs):
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=242274
Fix the Windows implementation of os.waitpid() for exit code
larger than "INT_MAX >> 8". The exit status is now interpreted as an
unsigned number.
os.waitstatus_to_exitcode() now accepts wait status larger than
INT_MAX.
Rename _PyInterpreterState_GET_UNSAFE() to _PyInterpreterState_GET()
for consistency with _PyThreadState_GET() and to have a shorter name
(help to fit into 80 columns).
Add also "assert(tstate != NULL);" to the function.
Add a private _at_fork_reinit() method to _thread.Lock,
_thread.RLock, threading.RLock and threading.Condition classes:
reinitialize the lock after fork in the child process; reset the lock
to the unlocked state.
Rename also the private _reset_internal_locks() method of
threading.Event to _at_fork_reinit().
* Add _PyThread_at_fork_reinit() private function. It is excluded
from the limited C API.
* threading.Thread._reset_internal_locks() now calls
_at_fork_reinit() on self._tstate_lock rather than creating a new
Python lock object.
Add os.waitstatus_to_exitcode() function to convert a wait status to an
exitcode.
Suggest waitstatus_to_exitcode() usage in the documentation when
appropriate.
Use waitstatus_to_exitcode() in:
* multiprocessing, os, subprocess and _bootsubprocess modules;
* test.support.wait_process();
* setup.py: run_command();
* and many tests.
Fix os.getgrouplist(): if getgrouplist() function fails because the
group list is too small, retry with a larger group list.
On failure, the glibc implementation of getgrouplist() sets ngroups
to the total number of groups. For other implementations, double the
group list size.
On macOS, getgrouplist() returns a non-zero value without setting
errno if the group list is too small. Double the list size and call
it again in this case.
Replace _PyInterpreterState_Get() function call with
_PyInterpreterState_GET_UNSAFE() macro which is more efficient but
don't check if tstate or interp is NULL.
_Py_GetConfigsAsDict() now uses _PyThreadState_GET().
The os.putenv() and os.unsetenv() functions are now always available.
On non-Windows platforms, Python now requires setenv() and unsetenv()
functions to build.
Remove putenv_dict from posixmodule.c: it's not longer needed.
If setenv() C function is available, os.putenv() is now implemented
with setenv() instead of putenv(), so Python doesn't have to handle
the environment variable memory.
On most platforms, the `environ` symbol is accessible everywhere.
In a dylib on OSX, it's not easily accessible, you need to find it with
_NSGetEnviron.
The code was caching the *value* of environ. But a setenv() can change the value,
leaving garbage at the old value. Fix: don't cache the value of environ, just
read it every time.
After #9665, this moves the remaining types in posixmodule to be heap-allocated to make it compatible with PEP384 as well as modifying all the type accessors to fully make the type opaque.
The original PR that got messed up a rebase: https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/10854. All the issues in that commit have now been addressed since https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/11661 got committed.
This change also removes any state from the data segment and onto the module state itself.

In ArgumentClinic, value "NULL" should now be used only for unrepresentable default values
(like in the optional third parameter of getattr). "None" should be used if None is accepted
as argument and passing None has the same effect as not passing the argument at all.
