Add an internal _PyType_AllocNoTrack() function to allocate an object
without tracking it in the GC.
Modify dict_new() to use _PyType_AllocNoTrack(): dict subclasses are
now only tracked once all PyDictObject members are initialized.
Calling _PyObject_GC_UNTRACK() is no longer needed for the dict type.
Similar change in tuple_subtype_new() for tuple subclasses.
Replace tuple_gc_track() with _PyObject_GC_TRACK().
* Specialize LOAD_ATTR with LOAD_ATTR_SLOT and LOAD_ATTR_SPLIT_KEYS
* Move dict-common.h to internal/pycore_dict.h
* Add LOAD_ATTR_WITH_HINT specialized opcode.
* Quicken in function if loopy
* Specialize LOAD_ATTR for module attributes.
* Add specialization stats
These are passed and called as PyCFunction, however they are defined here without the (ignored) args parameter.
This works fine in some C compilers, but fails in webassembly or anything else that has strict function pointer call type checking.
* Add Py_TPFLAGS_SEQUENCE and Py_TPFLAGS_MAPPING, add to all relevant standard builtin classes.
* Set relevant flags on collections.abc.Sequence and Mapping.
* Use flags in MATCH_SEQUENCE and MATCH_MAPPING opcodes.
* Inherit Py_TPFLAGS_SEQUENCE and Py_TPFLAGS_MAPPING.
* Add NEWS
* Remove interpreter-state map_abc and seq_abc fields.
* Split type_new() into into many small functions.
* Add type_new_ctx structure to pass variables between subfunctions.
* Initialize some PyTypeObject and PyHeapTypeObject members earlier
in type_new_alloc().
* Rename variables to more specific names.
* Add "__weakref__" identifier for type_new_visit_slots().
* Factorize code to convert a method to a classmethod
(__init_subclass__ and __class_getitem__).
* Add braces to respect PEP 7.
* Move variable declarations where the variables are initialized.
* No longer save/restore the current exception. It is no longer used
with an exception raised.
* No longer clear the current exception on error: it's now up to the
caller.
For some mysterious reason we have PySet_Check, PyFrozenSet_Check, PyAnySet_Check, PyAnySet_CheckExact and PyFrozenSet_CheckExact but no PySet_CheckExact.
Pass the current interpreter (interp) rather than the current Python
thread state (tstate) to internal functions which only use the
interpreter.
Modified functions:
* _PyXXX_Fini() and _PyXXX_ClearFreeList() functions
* _PyEval_SignalAsyncExc(), make_pending_calls()
* _PySys_GetObject(), sys_set_object(), sys_set_object_id(), sys_set_object_str()
* should_audit(), set_flags_from_config(), make_flags()
* _PyAtExit_Call()
* init_stdio_encoding()
* etc.
Several built-in and standard library types now ensure that their internal result tuples are always tracked by the garbage collector:
- collections.OrderedDict.items
- dict.items
- enumerate
- functools.reduce
- itertools.combinations
- itertools.combinations_with_replacement
- itertools.permutations
- itertools.product
- itertools.zip_longest
- zip
Previously, they could have become untracked by a prior garbage collection.
No longer use deprecated aliases to functions:
* Replace PyObject_MALLOC() with PyObject_Malloc()
* Replace PyObject_REALLOC() with PyObject_Realloc()
* Replace PyObject_FREE() with PyObject_Free()
* Replace PyObject_Del() with PyObject_Free()
* Replace PyObject_DEL() with PyObject_Free()
No longer use deprecated aliases to functions:
* Replace PyMem_MALLOC() with PyMem_Malloc()
* Replace PyMem_REALLOC() with PyMem_Realloc()
* Replace PyMem_FREE() with PyMem_Free()
* Replace PyMem_Del() with PyMem_Free()
* Replace PyMem_DEL() with PyMem_Free()
Modify also the PyMem_DEL() macro to use directly PyMem_Free().
If PyDict_GetItemWithError is only used to check whether the key is in dict,
it is better to use PyDict_Contains instead.
And if it is used in combination with PyDict_SetItem, PyDict_SetDefault can
replace the combination.
These functions are considered not safe because they suppress all internal errors
and can return wrong result. PyDict_GetItemString and _PyDict_GetItemId can
also silence current exception in rare cases.
Remove no longer used _PyDict_GetItemId.
Add _PyDict_ContainsId and rename _PyDict_Contains into
_PyDict_Contains_KnownHash.
Each interpreter now has its own dict free list:
* Move dict free lists into PyInterpreterState.
* Move PyDict_MAXFREELIST define to pycore_interp.h
* Add _Py_dict_state structure.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyDict_ClearFreeList() and _PyDict_Fini().
* In debug mode, ensure that the dict free lists are not used after
_PyDict_Fini() is called.
* Remove "#ifdef EXPERIMENTAL_ISOLATED_SUBINTERPRETERS".
Avoid unnecessary overhead in _PyDict_GetItemIdWithError() by calling
_PyDict_GetItem_KnownHash() instead of the more generic PyDict_GetItemWithError(),
since we already know the hash of interned strings.
When Python is built with experimental isolated interpreters, disable
tuple, dict and free free lists.
Temporary workaround until these caches are made per-interpreter.
Add frame_alloc() and frame_get_builtins() subfunctions to simplify
_PyFrame_New_NoTrack().
Remove the following function from the C API:
* PyAsyncGen_ClearFreeLists()
* PyContext_ClearFreeList()
* PyDict_ClearFreeList()
* PyFloat_ClearFreeList()
* PyFrame_ClearFreeList()
* PyList_ClearFreeList()
* PySet_ClearFreeList()
* PyTuple_ClearFreeList()
Make these functions private, move them to the internal C API and
change their return type to void.
Call explicitly PyGC_Collect() to free all free lists.
Note: PySet_ClearFreeList() did nothing.
This implements things like `list[int]`,
which returns an object of type `types.GenericAlias`.
This object mostly acts as a proxy for `list`,
but has attributes `__origin__` and `__args__`
that allow recovering the parts (with values `list` and `(int,)`.
There is also an approximate notion of type variables;
e.g. `list[T]` has a `__parameters__` attribute equal to `(T,)`.
Type variables are objects of type `typing.TypeVar`.

and then cleaned up:
- Revert changes to in docs & news
- Revert changes to backcompat defines in headers
- Nudge misaligned comments
* Remove _Py_INC_REFTOTAL and _Py_DEC_REFTOTAL macros: modify
directly _Py_RefTotal.
* _Py_ForgetReference() is no longer defined if the Py_TRACE_REFS
macro is not defined.
* Remove _Py_NewReference() implementation from object.c:
unify the two implementations in object.h inline function.
* Fix Py_TRACE_REFS build: _Py_INC_TPALLOCS() macro has been removed.
bpo-36389, bpo-38376: The _PyObject_CheckConsistency() function is
now also available in release mode. For example, it can be used to
debug a crash in the visit_decref() function of the GC.
Modify the following functions to also work in release mode:
* _PyDict_CheckConsistency()
* _PyObject_CheckConsistency()
* _PyType_CheckConsistency()
* _PyUnicode_CheckConsistency()
Other changes:
* _PyMem_IsPtrFreed(ptr) now also returns 1 if ptr is NULL
(equals to 0).
* _PyBytesWriter_CheckConsistency() now returns 1 and is only used
with assert().
* Reorder _PyObject_Dump() to write safe fields first, and only
attempt to render repr() at the end.
