The `_PySeqLock_EndRead` function needs an acquire fence to ensure that
the load of the sequence happens after any loads within the read side
critical section. The missing fence can trigger bugs on macOS arm64.
Additionally, we need a release fence in `_PySeqLock_LockWrite` to
ensure that the sequence update is visible before any modifications to
the cache entry.
Add more offsets to _Py_DebugOffsets
We add a few more offsets that are required by some out-of-process
tools, such as [Austin](https://github.com/p403n1x87/austin).
Refactor the fast Unicode hash check into `_PyObject_HashFast` and use relaxed
atomic loads in the free-threaded build.
After this change, the TSAN doesn't report data races for this method.
This PR sets up tagged pointers for CPython.
The general idea is to create a separate struct _PyStackRef for everything on the evaluation stack to store the bits. This forces the C compiler to warn us if we try to cast things or pull things out of the struct directly.
Only for free threading: We tag the low bit if something is deferred - that means we skip incref and decref operations on it. This behavior may change in the future if Mark's plans to defer all objects in the interpreter loop pans out.
This implies a strict stack reference discipline is required. ALL incref and decref operations on stackrefs must use the stackref variants. It is unsafe to untag something then do normal incref/decref ops on it.
The new incref and decref variants are called dup and close. They mimic a "handle" API operating on these stackrefs.

This makes the following macros public as part of the non-limited C-API for
locking a single object or two objects at once.
* `Py_BEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION(op)` / `Py_END_CRITICAL_SECTION()`
* `Py_BEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION2(a, b)` / `Py_END_CRITICAL_SECTION2()`
The supporting functions and structs used by the macros are also exposed for
cases where C macros are not available.
* Add an InternalDocs file describing how interning should work and how to use it.
* Add internal functions to *explicitly* request what kind of interning is done:
- `_PyUnicode_InternMortal`
- `_PyUnicode_InternImmortal`
- `_PyUnicode_InternStatic`
* Switch uses of `PyUnicode_InternInPlace` to those.
* Disallow using `_Py_SetImmortal` on strings directly.
You should use `_PyUnicode_InternImmortal` instead:
- Strings should be interned before immortalization, otherwise you're possibly
interning a immortalizing copy.
- `_Py_SetImmortal` doesn't handle the `SSTATE_INTERNED_MORTAL` to
`SSTATE_INTERNED_IMMORTAL` update, and those flags can't be changed in
backports, as they are now part of public API and version-specific ABI.
* Add private `_only_immortal` argument for `sys.getunicodeinternedsize`, used in refleak test machinery.
* Make sure the statically allocated string singletons are unique. This means these sets are now disjoint:
- `_Py_ID`
- `_Py_STR` (including the empty string)
- one-character latin-1 singletons
Now, when you intern a singleton, that exact singleton will be interned.
* Add a `_Py_LATIN1_CHR` macro, use it instead of `_Py_ID`/`_Py_STR` for one-character latin-1 singletons everywhere (including Clinic).
* Intern `_Py_STR` singletons at startup.
* For free-threaded builds, intern `_Py_LATIN1_CHR` singletons at startup.
* Beef up the tests. Cover internal details (marked with `@cpython_only`).
* Add lots of assertions

This exposes `PyUnstable_Object_ClearWeakRefsNoCallbacks` as an unstable
C-API function to provide a thread-safe mechanism for clearing weakrefs
without executing callbacks.
Some C-API extensions need to clear weakrefs without calling callbacks,
such as after running finalizers like we do in subtype_dealloc.
Previously they could use `_PyWeakref_ClearRef` on each weakref, but
that's not thread-safe in the free-threaded build.

In gh-120009 I used an atexit hook to finalize the _datetime module's static types at interpreter shutdown. However, atexit hooks are executed very early in finalization, which is a problem in the few cases where a subclass of one of those static types is still alive until the final GC collection. The static builtin types don't have this probably because they are finalized toward the end, after the final GC collection. To avoid the problem for _datetime, I have applied a similar approach here.
Also, credit goes to @mgorny and @neonene for the new tests.
FYI, I would have liked to take a slightly cleaner approach with managed static types, but wanted to get a smaller fix in first for the sake of backporting. I'll circle back to the cleaner approach with a future change on the main branch.
The _strptime module object was cached in a static local variable (in the datetime.strptime() implementation). That's a problem when it crosses isolation boundaries, such as reinitializing the runtme or between interpreters. This change fixes the problem by dropping the static variable, instead always relying on the normal sys.modules cache (via PyImport_Import()).
This adds a `_PyRecursiveMutex` type based on `PyMutex` and uses that
for the import lock. This fixes some data races in the free-threaded
build and generally simplifies the import lock code.
The `_PyThreadState_Bind()` function is called before the first
`PyEval_AcquireThread()` so it's not synchronized with the stop the
world GC. We had a race where `gc_visit_heaps()` might visit a thread's
heap while it's being initialized.
Use a simple atomic int to avoid visiting heaps for threads that are not
yet fully initialized (i.e., before `tstate_mimalloc_bind()` is called).
The race was reproducible by running:
`python Lib/test/test_importlib/partial/pool_in_threads.py`.
We make use of the same mechanism that we use for the static builtin types. This required a few tweaks.
The relevant code could use some cleanup but I opted to avoid the significant churn in this change. I'll tackle that separately.
This change is the final piece needed to make _datetime support multiple interpreters. I've updated the module slot accordingly.
I was able to make use of the existing datetime_state struct, but there was one tricky thing I had to sort out. We mostly aren't converting to heap types, so we can't use things like PyType_GetModuleByDef() to look up the module state. The solution I came up with is somewhat novel, but I consider it straightforward. Also, it shouldn't have much impact on performance.
In summary, this main changes here are:
* I've added some macros to help hide how various objects relate to module state
* as a solution to the module state lookup problem, I've stored the last loaded module on the current interpreter's internal dict (actually a weakref)
* if the static type method is used after the module has been deleted, it is reloaded
* to avoid extra work when loading the module, we directly copy the objects (new refs only) from the old module state into the new state if the old module hasn't been deleted yet
* during module init we set various objects on the static types' __dict__s; to simplify things, we only do that the first time; once those static types have a separate __dict__ per interpreter, we'll do it every time
* we now clear the module state when the module is destroyed (before, we were leaking everything in _datetime_global_state)
The free-threaded build currently immortalizes objects that use deferred
reference counting (see gh-117783). This typically happens once the
first non-main thread is created, but the behavior can be suppressed for
tests, in subinterpreters, or during a compile() call.
This fixes a race condition involving the tracking of whether the
behavior is suppressed.
Remove the delegation of `int` to the `__trunc__` special method: `int` will now only delegate to `__int__` and `__index__` (in that order). `__trunc__` continues to exist, but its sole purpose is to support `math.trunc`.

Support non-dict globals in LOAD_FROM_DICT_OR_GLOBALS
The implementation basically copies LOAD_GLOBAL. Possibly it could be deduplicated,
but that seems like it may get hairy since the two operations have different operands.
This is important to fix in 3.14 for PEP 649, but it's a bug in earlier versions too,
and we should backport to 3.13 and 3.12 if possible.
Structure layout, and especially bitfields, sometimes resulted in clearly
wrong behaviour like overlapping fields. This fixes

`drop_gil()` assumes that its caller is attached, which means that the current
thread holds the GIL if and only if the GIL is enabled, and the enabled-state
of the GIL won't change. This isn't true, though, because `detach_thread()`
calls `_PyEval_ReleaseLock()` after detaching and
`_PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent()` calls it after removing the current thread
from consideration for stop-the-world requests (effectively detaching it).
Fix this by remembering whether or not a thread acquired the GIL when it last
attached, in `PyThreadState._status.holds_gil`, and check this in `drop_gil()`
instead of `gil->enabled`.
This fixes a crash in `test_multiprocessing_pool_circular_import()`, so I've
reenabled it.
Add `Py_BEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION_SEQUENCE_FAST` and
`Py_END_CRITICAL_SECTION_SEQUENCE_FAST` macros and update `str.join` to use
them. Also add a regression test that would crash reliably without this
patch.
_PyArg_Parser holds static global data generated for modules by Argument Clinic. The _PyArg_Parser.kwtuple field is a tuple object, even though it's stored within a static global. In some cases the tuple is statically allocated and thus it's okay that it gets shared by multiple interpreters. However, in other cases the tuple is set lazily, allocated from the heap using the active interprepreter at the point the tuple is needed.
This is a problem once that interpreter is destroyed since _PyArg_Parser.kwtuple becomes at dangling pointer, leading to crashes. It isn't a problem if the tuple is allocated under the main interpreter, since its lifetime is bound to the lifetime of the runtime. The solution here is to temporarily switch to the main interpreter. The alternative would be to always statically allocate the tuple.
This change also fixes a bug where only the most recent parser was added to the global linked list.
The PEP 649 implementation will require a way to load NotImplementedError
from the bytecode. @markshannon suggested implementing this by converting
LOAD_ASSERTION_ERROR into a more general mechanism for loading constants.
This PR adds this new opcode. I will work on the rest of the implementation
of the PEP separately.

`_Py_qsbr_unregister` is called when the PyThreadState is already
detached, so the access to `tstate->qsbr` isn't safe without locking the
shared mutex. Grab the `struct _qsbr_shared` from the interpreter
instead.
_PyWeakref_ClearRef was previously exposed in the public C-API, although
it begins with an underscore and is not documented. It's used by a few
C-API extensions. There is currently no alternative public API that can
replace its use.
_PyWeakref_ClearWeakRefsExceptCallbacks is the only thread-safe way to
use _PyWeakref_ClearRef in the free-threaded build. This exposes the C
symbol, but does not make the API public.
Some embedders and extensions include parts of the internal API. The
pycore_mimalloc.h file is transitively include by a number of other
internal headers. This avoids include errors for code that was
already including those headers.
Use relaxed atomics when reading / writing to the field. There are still a
few places in the GC where we do not use atomics. Those should be safe as
the world is stopped.
Add the ability to enable/disable the GIL at runtime, and use that in
the C module loading code.
We can't know before running a module init function if it supports
free-threading, so the GIL is temporarily enabled before doing so. If
the module declares support for running without the GIL, the GIL is
later disabled. Otherwise, the GIL is permanently enabled, and will
never be disabled again for the life of the current interpreter.
We already intern and immortalize most string constants. In the
free-threaded build, other constants can be a source of reference count
contention because they are shared by all threads running the same code
objects.
Add _PyType_LookupRef and use incref before setting attribute on type
Makes setting an attribute on a class and signaling type modified atomic
Avoid adding re-entrancy exposing the type cache in an inconsistent state by decrefing after type is updated
The designated initializer syntax in static inline functions in pycore_backoff.h
causes problems for C++ or MSVC users who aren't yet using C++20.
While internal, pycore_backoff.h is included (indirectly, via pycore_code.h)
by some key 3rd party software that does so for speed.
Use the new public Raw functions:
* _PyTime_PerfCounterUnchecked() with PyTime_PerfCounterRaw()
* _PyTime_TimeUnchecked() with PyTime_TimeRaw()
* _PyTime_MonotonicUnchecked() with PyTime_MonotonicRaw()
Remove internal functions:
* _PyTime_PerfCounterUnchecked()
* _PyTime_TimeUnchecked()
* _PyTime_MonotonicUnchecked()
We have only been tracking each module's PyModuleDef. However, there are some problems with that. For example, in some cases we load single-phase init extension modules from def->m_base.m_init or def->m_base.m_copy, but if multiple modules share a def then we can end up with unexpected behavior.
With this change, we track the following:
* PyModuleDef (same as before)
* for some modules, its init function or a copy of its __dict__, but specific to that module
* whether it is a builtin/core module or a "dynamic" extension
* the interpreter (ID) that owns the cached __dict__ (only if cached)
This also makes it easier to remember the module's kind (e.g. single-phase init) and if loading it previously failed, which I'm doing separately.
* Add CALL_PY_GENERAL, CALL_BOUND_METHOD_GENERAL and call CALL_NON_PY_GENERAL specializations.
* Remove CALL_PY_WITH_DEFAULTS specialization
* Use CALL_NON_PY_GENERAL in more cases when otherwise failing to specialize
This PR adds the ability to enable the GIL if it was disabled at
interpreter startup, and modifies the multi-phase module initialization
path to enable the GIL when loading a module, unless that module's spec
includes a slot indicating it can run safely without the GIL.
PEP 703 called the constant for the slot `Py_mod_gil_not_used`; I went
with `Py_MOD_GIL_NOT_USED` for consistency with gh-104148.
A warning will be issued up to once per interpreter for the first
GIL-using module that is loaded. If `-v` is given, a shorter message
will be printed to stderr every time a GIL-using module is loaded
(including the first one that issues a warning).
The module itself is a thin wrapper around calls to functions in
`Python/codecs.c`, so that's where the meaningful changes happened:
- Move codecs-related state that lives on `PyInterpreterState` to a
struct declared in `pycore_codecs.h`.
- In free-threaded builds, add a mutex to `codecs_state` to synchronize
operations on `search_path`. Because `search_path_mutex` is used as a
normal mutex and not a critical section, we must be extremely careful
with operations called while holding it.
- The codec registry is explicitly initialized as part of
`_PyUnicode_InitEncodings` to simplify thread-safety.
The code for Tier 2 is now only compiled when configured
with `--enable-experimental-jit[=yes|interpreter]`.
We drop support for `PYTHON_UOPS` and -`Xuops`,
but you can disable the interpreter or JIT
at runtime by setting `PYTHON_JIT=0`.
You can also build it without enabling it by default
using `--enable-experimental-jit=yes-off`;
enable with `PYTHON_JIT=1`.
On Windows, the `build.bat` script supports
`--experimental-jit`, `--experimental-jit-off`,
`--experimental-interpreter`.
In the C code, `_Py_JIT` is defined as before
when the JIT is enabled; the new variable
`_Py_TIER2` is defined when the JIT *or* the
interpreter is enabled. It is actually a bitmask:
1: JIT; 2: default-off; 4: interpreter.
Avoid detaching thread state when stopping the world. When re-attaching
the thread state, the thread would attempt to resume the top-most
critical section, which might now be held by a thread paused for our
stop-the-world request.
Deferred reference counting is not fully implemented yet. As a temporary
measure, we immortalize objects that would use deferred reference
counting to avoid multi-threaded scaling bottlenecks.
This is only performed in the free-threaded build once the first
non-main thread is started. Additionally, some tests, including refleak
tests, suppress this behavior.
Basically, I've turned most of _PyImport_LoadDynamicModuleWithSpec() into two new functions (_PyImport_GetModInitFunc() and _PyImport_RunModInitFunc()) and moved the rest of it out into _imp_create_dynamic_impl(). There shouldn't be any changes in behavior.
This change makes some future changes simpler. This is particularly relevant to potentially calling each module init function in the main interpreter first. Thus the critical part of the PR is the addition of _PyImport_RunModInitFunc(), which is strictly focused on running the init func and validating the result. A later PR will take it a step farther by capturing error information rather than raising exceptions.
FWIW, this change also helps readers by clarifying a bit more about what happens when an extension/builtin module is imported.
This is an improvement over the status quo, reducing the likelihood of completely filling the pending calls queue. However, the problem won't go away completely unless we move to an unbounded linked list or add a mechanism for waiting until the queue isn't full.
These are cleanups I've pulled out of gh-118116. Mostly, this change moves code around to align with some future changes and to improve clarity a little. There is one very small change in behavior: we now add the module to the per-interpreter caches after updating the global state, rather than before.
This is a collection of very basic cleanups I've pulled out of gh-118116. It is mostly renaming variables and moving a couple bits of code in functionally equivalent ways.
Makes sys.settrace, sys.setprofile, and monitoring generally thread-safe.
Mostly uses a stop-the-world approach and synchronization around the code object's _co_instrumentation_version. There may be a little bit of extra synchronization around the monitoring data that's required to be TSAN clean.
Guido pointed out to me that some details about the per-interpreter state for the builtin types aren't especially clear. I'm addressing that by:
* adding a comment explaining that state
* adding some asserts to point out the relationship between each index and the interp/global runtime state
This change gives a significant speedup, as the METH_FASTCALL calling
convention is now used. The following bytes and bytearray methods are adapted:
- count()
- find()
- index()
- rfind()
- rindex()

This is similar to the situation with threading._DummyThread. The methods (incl. __del__()) of interpreters.Interpreter objects must be careful with interpreters not created by interpreters.create(). The simplest thing to start with is to disable any method that modifies or runs in the interpreter. As part of this, the runtime keeps track of where an interpreter was created. We also handle interpreter "refcounts" properly.
This keeps track of the per-thread total reference count operations in
PyThreadState in the free-threaded builds. The count is merged into the
interpreter's total when the thread exits.
Most mutable data is protected by a striped lock that is keyed on the
referenced object's address. The weakref's hash is protected using the
weakref's per-object lock.
Note that this only affects free-threaded builds. Apart from some minor
refactoring, the added code is all either gated by `ifdef`s or is a no-op
(e.g. `Py_BEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION`).
Introduce a unified 16-bit backoff counter type (``_Py_BackoffCounter``),
shared between the Tier 1 adaptive specializer and the Tier 2 optimizer. The
API used for adaptive specialization counters is changed but the behavior is
(supposed to be) identical.
The behavior of the Tier 2 counters is changed:
- There are no longer dynamic thresholds (we never varied these).
- All counters now use the same exponential backoff.
- The counter for ``JUMP_BACKWARD`` starts counting down from 16.
- The ``temperature`` in side exits starts counting down from 64.
This merges all `_CHECK_STACK_SPACE` uops in a trace into a single `_CHECK_STACK_SPACE_OPERAND` uop that checks whether there is enough stack space for all calls included in the entire trace.
These helpers make it easier to customize and inspect the config used to initialize interpreters. This is especially valuable in our tests. I found inspiration from the PyConfig API for the PyInterpreterConfig dict conversion stuff. As part of this PR I've also added a bunch of tests.
Mark the swap operations as critical sections.
Add an internal Py_BEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION_MUT API that takes a PyMutex
pointer instead of a PyObject pointer.
Change old space bit of young objects from 0 to gcstate->visited_space.
This ensures that any object created *and* collected during cycle GC has the bit set correctly.
Changes to the function version cache:
- In addition to the function object, also store the code object,
and allow the latter to be retrieved even if the function has been evicted.
- Stop assigning new function versions after a critical attribute (e.g. `__code__`)
has been modified; the version is permanently reset to zero in this case.
- Changes to `__annotations__` are no longer considered critical. (This fixes gh-109998.)
Changes to the Tier 2 optimization machinery:
- If we cannot map a function version to a function, but it is still mapped to a code object,
we continue projecting the trace.
The operand of the `_PUSH_FRAME` and `_POP_FRAME` opcodes can be either NULL,
a function object, or a code object with the lowest bit set.
This allows us to trace through code that calls an ephemeral function,
i.e., a function that may not be alive when we are constructing the executor,
e.g. a generator expression or certain nested functions.
We will lose globals removal inside such functions,
but we can still do other peephole operations
(and even possibly [call inlining](https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/116290),
if we decide to do it), which only need the code object.
As before, if we cannot retrieve the code object from the cache, we stop projecting.
Split `_PyThreadState_DeleteExcept` into two functions:
- `_PyThreadState_RemoveExcept` removes all thread states other than one
passed as an argument. It returns the removed thread states as a
linked list.
- `_PyThreadState_DeleteList` deletes those dead thread states. It may
call destructors, so we want to "start the world" before calling
`_PyThreadState_DeleteList` to avoid potential deadlocks.
I added it quite a while ago as a strategy for managing interpreter lifetimes relative to the PEP 554 (now 734) implementation. Relatively recently I refactored that implementation to no longer rely on InterpreterID objects. Thus now I'm removing it.
Add Py_GetConstant() and Py_GetConstantBorrowed() functions.
In the limited C API version 3.13, getting Py_None, Py_False,
Py_True, Py_Ellipsis and Py_NotImplemented singletons is now
implemented as function calls at the stable ABI level to hide
implementation details. Getting these constants still return borrowed
references.
Add _testlimitedcapi/object.c and test_capi/test_object.py to test
Py_GetConstant() and Py_GetConstantBorrowed() functions.
Mostly we unify the two different implementations of the conversion code (from PyObject * to int64_t. We also drop the PyArg_ParseTuple()-style converter function, as well as rename and move PyInterpreterID_LookUp().
Somehow we ended up with two separate counter variables tracking "the next function version".
Most likely this was a historical accident where an old branch was updated incorrectly.
This PR merges the two counters into a single one: `interp->func_state.next_version`.
There is a race between when `Thread._tstate_lock` is released[^1] in `Thread._wait_for_tstate_lock()`
and when `Thread._stop()` asserts[^2] that it is unlocked. Consider the following execution
involving threads A, B, and C:
1. A starts.
2. B joins A, blocking on its `_tstate_lock`.
3. C joins A, blocking on its `_tstate_lock`.
4. A finishes and releases its `_tstate_lock`.
5. B acquires A's `_tstate_lock` in `_wait_for_tstate_lock()`, releases it, but is swapped
out before calling `_stop()`.
6. C is scheduled, acquires A's `_tstate_lock` in `_wait_for_tstate_lock()` but is swapped
out before releasing it.
7. B is scheduled, calls `_stop()`, which asserts that A's `_tstate_lock` is not held.
However, C holds it, so the assertion fails.
The race can be reproduced[^3] by inserting sleeps at the appropriate points in
the threading code. To do so, run the `repro_join_race.py` from the linked repo.
There are two main parts to this PR:
1. `_tstate_lock` is replaced with an event that is attached to `PyThreadState`.
The event is set by the runtime prior to the thread being cleared (in the same
place that `_tstate_lock` was released). `Thread.join()` blocks waiting for the
event to be set.
2. `_PyInterpreterState_WaitForThreads()` provides the ability to wait for all
non-daemon threads to exit. To do so, an `is_daemon` predicate was added to
`PyThreadState`. This field is set each time a thread is created. `threading._shutdown()`
now calls into `_PyInterpreterState_WaitForThreads()` instead of waiting on
`_tstate_lock`s.

In free-threaded builds, running with `PYTHON_GIL=0` will now disable the
GIL. Follow-up issues track work to re-enable the GIL when loading an
incompatible extension, and to disable the GIL by default.
In order to support re-enabling the GIL at runtime, all GIL-related data
structures are initialized as usual, and disabling the GIL simply sets a flag
that causes `take_gil()` and `drop_gil()` to return early.
This implements the delayed reuse of mimalloc pages that contain Python
objects in the free-threaded build.
Allocations of the same size class are grouped in data structures called
pages. These are different from operating system pages. For thread-safety, we
want to ensure that memory used to store PyObjects remains valid as long as
there may be concurrent lock-free readers; we want to delay using it for
other size classes, in other heaps, or returning it to the operating system.
When a mimalloc page becomes empty, instead of immediately freeing it, we tag
it with a QSBR goal and insert it into a per-thread state linked list of
pages to be freed. When mimalloc needs a fresh page, we process the queue and
free any still empty pages that are now deemed safe to be freed. Pages
waiting to be freed are still available for allocations of the same size
class and allocating from a page prevent it from being freed. There is
additional logic to handle abandoned pages when threads exit.
This sets `MI_DEBUG` to `2` in debug builds to enable `mi_assert_internal()`
calls. Expensive internal assertions are not enabled.
This also disables an assertion in free-threaded builds that would be
triggered by the free-threaded GC because we traverse heaps that are not
owned by the current thread.
Make `_thread.ThreadHandle` thread-safe in free-threaded builds
We protect the mutable state of `ThreadHandle` using a `_PyOnceFlag`.
Concurrent operations (i.e. `join` or `detach`) on `ThreadHandle` block
until it is their turn to execute or an earlier operation succeeds.
Once an operation has been applied successfully all future operations
complete immediately.
The `join()` method is now idempotent. It may be called multiple times
but the underlying OS thread will only be joined once. After `join()`
succeeds, any future calls to `join()` will succeed immediately.
The internal thread handle `detach()` method has been removed.
This changes the `sym_set_...()` functions to return a `bool` which is `false`
when the symbol is `bottom` after the operation.
All calls to such functions now check this result and go to `hit_bottom`,
a special error label that prints a different message and then reports
that it wasn't able to optimize the trace. No executor will be produced
in this case.
This undoes the *temporary* default disabling of the T2 optimizer pass in gh-115860.
- Add a new test that reproduces Brandt's example from gh-115859; it indeed crashes before gh-116028 with PYTHONUOPSOPTIMIZE=1
- Re-enable the optimizer pass in T2, stop checking PYTHONUOPSOPTIMIZE
- Rename the env var to disable T2 entirely to PYTHON_UOPS_OPTIMIZE (must be explicitly set to 0 to disable)
- Fix skipIf conditions on tests in test_opt.py accordingly
- Export sym_is_bottom() (for debugging)
- Fix various things in the `_BINARY_OP_` specializations in the abstract interpreter:
- DECREF(temp)
- out-of-space check after sym_new_const()
- add sym_matches_type() checks, so even if we somehow reach a binary op with symbolic constants of the wrong type on the stack we won't trigger the type assert
- Any `sym_set_...` call that attempts to set conflicting information
cause the symbol to become `bottom` (contradiction).
- All `sym_is...` and similar calls return false or NULL for `bottom`.
- Everything's tested.
- The tests still pass with `PYTHONUOPSOPTIMIZE=1`.
