The implementation of __sizeof__() methods using _PyObject_SIZE() now
use an unsigned type (size_t) to compute the size, rather than a signed
type (Py_ssize_t).
Cast explicitly signed (Py_ssize_t) values to unsigned type
(Py_ssize_t).
* code_sizeof() now uses an unsigned type (size_t) to compute the result.
* Fix _PyObject_ComputedDictPointer(): cast _PyObject_VAR_SIZE() to
Py_ssize_t, rather than long: it's a different type on 64-bit Windows.
* Clarify that _PyObject_VAR_SIZE() uses an unsigned type (size_t).
* Replace Py_INCREF() and Py_XINCREF() using a cast with Py_NewRef()
and Py_XNewRef() in Modules/_elementtree.c.
* Make reference counting more explicit: don't steal implicitly a
reference on PyList_SET_ITEM(), use Py_NewRef() instead.
* Replace PyModule_AddObject() with PyModule_AddObjectRef().
Replace "Py_XDECREF(var); var = NULL;" with "Py_CLEAR(var);".
Don't replace "Py_DECREF(var); var = NULL;" with "Py_CLEAR(var);". It
would add an useless "if (var)" test in code path where var cannot be
NULL.
Fix potential race condition in code patterns:
* Replace "Py_DECREF(var); var = new;" with "Py_SETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "Py_XDECREF(var); var = new;" with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "Py_CLEAR(var); var = new;" with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
Other changes:
* Replace "old = var; var = new; Py_DECREF(var)"
with "Py_SETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "old = var; var = new; Py_XDECREF(var)"
with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
* And remove the "old" variable.
The ``structmember.h`` header is deprecated, though it continues to be available
and there are no plans to remove it. There are no deprecation warnings. Old code
can stay unchanged (unless the extra include and non-namespaced macros bother
you greatly). Specifically, no uses in CPython are updated -- that would just be
unnecessary churn.
The ``structmember.h`` header is deprecated, though it continues to be
available and there are no plans to remove it.
Its contents are now available just by including ``Python.h``,
with a ``Py`` prefix added if it was missing:
- `PyMemberDef`, `PyMember_GetOne` and`PyMember_SetOne`
- Type macros like `Py_T_INT`, `Py_T_DOUBLE`, etc.
(previously ``T_INT``, ``T_DOUBLE``, etc.)
- The flags `Py_READONLY` (previously ``READONLY``) and
`Py_AUDIT_READ` (previously all uppercase)
Several items are not exposed from ``Python.h``:
- `T_OBJECT` (use `Py_T_OBJECT_EX`)
- `T_NONE` (previously undocumented, and pretty quirky)
- The macro ``WRITE_RESTRICTED`` which does nothing.
- The macros ``RESTRICTED`` and ``READ_RESTRICTED``, equivalents of
`Py_AUDIT_READ`.
- In some configurations, ``<stddef.h>`` is not included from ``Python.h``.
It should be included manually when using ``offsetof()``.
The deprecated header continues to provide its original
contents under the original names.
Your old code can stay unchanged, unless the extra include and non-namespaced
macros bother you greatly.
There is discussion on the issue to rename `T_PYSSIZET` to `PY_T_SSIZE` or
similar. I chose not to do that -- users will probably copy/paste that with any
spelling, and not renaming it makes migration docs simpler.

Fix a number of compile errors with GCC-12 on macOS:
1. In pylifecycle.c the compile rejects _Pragma within a declaration
2. posixmodule.c was missing a number of ..._RUNTIME macros for non-clang on macOS
3. _ctypes assumed that __builtin_available is always present on macOS
Before python3.11, when in a venv the zip path is calculated
from prefix on POSIX platforms. In python3.11 the behavior is
accidentally changed to calculating from default prefix. This
change will break venv created from a non-installed python
with a stdlib zip file. This commit restores the behavior back
to before python3.11.
Improves the docstring on signal.strsignal to make it explain when it returns a message, None, or when it raises ValueError.
Closes#98930
