It had to live as a global outside of PyConfig for stable ABI reasons in
the pre-3.12 backports.
This removes the `_Py_global_config_int_max_str_digits` and gets rid of
the equivalent field in the internal `struct _is PyInterpreterState` as
code can just use the existing nested config struct within that.
Adds tests to verify unique settings and configs in subinterpreters.
⚠️⚠️ Note for reviewers, hackers and fellow systems/low-level/compiler engineers ⚠️⚠️
If you have a lot of experience with this kind of shenanigans and want to improve the **first** version, **please make a PR against my branch** or **reach out by email** or **suggest code changes directly on GitHub**.
If you have any **refinements or optimizations** please, wait until the first version is merged before starting hacking or proposing those so we can keep this PR productive.
* gh-93503: Add APIs to set profiling and tracing functions in all threads in the C-API
* Use a separate API
* Fix NEWS entry
* Add locks around the loop
* Document ignoring exceptions
* Use the new APIs in the sys module
* Update docs
An unrecognized format character in PyUnicode_FromFormat() and
PyUnicode_FromFormatV() now sets a SystemError.
In previous versions it caused all the rest of the format string to be
copied as-is to the result string, and any extra arguments discarded.
* Store tp_weaklist on the interpreter state for static builtin types.
* Factor out _PyStaticType_GET_WEAKREFS_LISTPTR().
* Add _PyStaticType_ClearWeakRefs().
* Add a comment about how _PyStaticType_ClearWeakRefs() loops.
* Document the change.
* Update Doc/whatsnew/3.12.rst
* Fix a typo.
This checks the bases of of a type created using the FromSpec
API to inherit the bases metaclasses. The metaclass's alloc
function will be called as is done in `tp_new` for classes
created in Python.

* Remove outdated notes from functions that aren't in the Limited API
Nowadays everything that *is* in the Limited API has a note added
automatically.
These notes could mislead people to think that these functions
could never be added to the limited API. Remove them.
* Also remove forgotten note on tp_vectorcall_offset not being finalized
Added a new stable API function ``PyType_FromMetaclass``, which mirrors
the behavior of ``PyType_FromModuleAndSpec`` except that it takes an
additional metaclass argument. This is, e.g., useful for language
binding tools that need to store additional information in the type
object.
Python now always use the ``%zu`` and ``%zd`` printf formats to
format a size_t or Py_ssize_t number. Building Python 3.12 requires a
C11 compiler, so these printf formats are now always supported.
* PyObject_Print() and _PyObject_Dump() now use the printf %zd format
to display an object reference count.
* Update PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T comment.
* Remove outdated notes about the %zd format in PyBytes_FromFormat()
and PyUnicode_FromFormat() documentations.
* configure no longer checks for the %zd format and no longer defines
PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T macro in pyconfig.h.
* pymacconfig.h no longer undefines PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T: macOS 10.4 is
no longer supported. Python 3.12 now requires macOS 10.6 (Snow
Leopard) or newer.
Update documentation of PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefault(),
PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefaultAndSize() and PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault():
they now use the filesystem encoding and error handler of PyConfig,
Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding and Py_FileSystemDefaultEncodeErrors
variables are no longer used.
Use _Py_CAST() and _Py_STATIC_CAST() in macros wrapping static inline
functions of unicodeobject.h.
Change also the kind type from unsigned int to int: same parameter
type than PyUnicode_FromKindAndData().
The limited API version 3.11 no longer casts arguments to expected
types.
* Remove redundant footnote ref: the footnote has been removed
* Fix footnote ref to match footnote
* Convert footnotes into reST footnotes: will error if missing
Add the -P command line option and the PYTHONSAFEPATH environment
variable to not prepend a potentially unsafe path to sys.path.
* Add sys.flags.safe_path flag.
* Add PyConfig.safe_path member.
* Programs/_bootstrap_python.c uses config.safe_path=0.
* Update subprocess._optim_args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle
the -P command line option.
* Modules/getpath.py sets safe_path to 1 if a "._pth" file is
present.
Convert the following macros to static inline functions:
* PyByteArray_AS_STRING()
* PyByteArray_GET_SIZE()
* PyBytes_AS_STRING()
* PyBytes_GET_SIZE()
Limited C API version 3.11 no longer casts arguments.
Add _PyBytes_CAST() and _PyByteArray_CAST() macros.
Py_REFCNT(), Py_TYPE(), Py_SIZE() and Py_IS_TYPE() functions argument
type is now "PyObject*", rather than "const PyObject*".
* Replace also "const PyObject*" with "PyObject*" in functions:
* _Py_strhex_impl()
* _Py_strhex_with_sep()
* _Py_strhex_bytes_with_sep()
* Remove _PyObject_CAST_CONST() and _PyVarObject_CAST_CONST() macros.
* Py_IS_TYPE() can now use Py_TYPE() in its implementation.
* Revert "bpo-46850: Move _PyInterpreterState_SetEvalFrameFunc() to internal C API (GH-32054)"
This reverts commit f877b40e3f.
* Revert "bpo-46850: Move _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault() to internal C API (GH-32052)"
This reverts commit b9a5522dd9.
Move the private _PyFrameEvalFunction type, and private
_PyInterpreterState_GetEvalFrameFunc() and
_PyInterpreterState_SetEvalFrameFunc() functions to the internal C
API. The _PyFrameEvalFunction callback function type now uses the
_PyInterpreterFrame type which is part of the internal C API.
Update the _PyFrameEvalFunction documentation.
* `PyFrame_FastToLocalsWithError` and `PyFrame_LocalsToFast` are no longer called during profile and tracing.
(Contributed by Fabio Zadrozny)
* Make accesses to a frame's `f_locals` safe from C code, not relying on calls to `PyFrame_FastToLocals` or `PyFrame_LocalsToFast`.
* Document new `PyFrame_GetLocals` C-API function.
Add new functions to pack and unpack C double (serialize and
deserialize):
* PyFloat_Pack2(), PyFloat_Pack4(), PyFloat_Pack8()
* PyFloat_Unpack2(), PyFloat_Unpack4(), PyFloat_Unpack8()
Document these functions and add unit tests.
Rename private functions and move them from the internal C API
to the public C API:
* _PyFloat_Pack2() => PyFloat_Pack2()
* _PyFloat_Pack4() => PyFloat_Pack4()
* _PyFloat_Pack8() => PyFloat_Pack8()
* _PyFloat_Unpack2() => PyFloat_Unpack2()
* _PyFloat_Unpack4() => PyFloat_Unpack4()
* _PyFloat_Unpack8() => PyFloat_Unpack8()
Replace the "unsigned char*" type with "char*" which is more common
and easy to use.
* C API docs: move PyErr_SetImportErrorSubclass docs
It was in the section about warnings, but it makes more sense to
put it with PyErr_SetImportError.
* C API docs: document closeit argument to PyRun_AnyFileExFlags
It was already documented for PyRun_SimpleFileExFlags.
* textual fixes to unicode docs
* Move paragraph about tp_dealloc into tp_dealloc section
* __aiter__ returns an async iterator, not an awaitable
This reduces the size of the data segment by **300 KB** of the executable because if the modules are deep-frozen then the marshalled frozen data just wastes space. This was inspired by comment by @gvanrossum in https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/29118#issuecomment-958521863. Note: There is a new option `--deepfreeze-only` in `freeze_modules.py` to change this behavior, it is on be default to save disk space.

When Python is embedded in other applications, it is not easy to determine which version of Python is being used. This change exposes the Python version as part of the API data. Tools like Austin (https://github.com/P403n1x87/austin) can benefit from this data when targeting applications like uWSGI, as the Python version can then be inferred systematically by looking at the exported symbols rather than relying on unreliable pattern matching or other hacks (like remote code execution etc...).

The getpath.py file is frozen at build time and executed as code over a namespace. It is never imported, nor is it meant to be importable or reusable. However, it should be easier to read, modify, and patch than the previous code.
This commit attempts to preserve every previously tested quirk, but these may be changed in the future to better align platforms.
Rename PyConfig.no_debug_ranges to PyConfig.code_debug_ranges and
invert the value.
Document -X no_debug_ranges and PYTHONNODEBUGRANGES env var in
PyConfig.code_debug_ranges documentation.
It is now considered a historical accident that e.g. `for` loops and the `iter()` built-in function do not require the iterators they work with to define `__iter__`, only `__next__`.
Objects that support garbage collection ("container" objects) should
call PyObject_GC_UnTrack() from their destructors before clearing any
fields which may point to other "container" objects.
