Brings `pathlib.Path.is_dir()` and `in line with `os.DirEntry.is_dir()`, which
will be important for implementing generic path walking and globbing.
Likewise `is_file()`.
Remove old aliases which were kept backwards compatibility with
Python 3.8:
* _PyObject_CallMethodNoArgs()
* _PyObject_CallMethodOneArg()
* _PyObject_CallOneArg()
* _PyObject_FastCallDict()
* _PyObject_Vectorcall()
* _PyObject_VectorcallMethod()
* _PyVectorcall_Function()
Update code which used these aliases to use new names.
This new exception type is raised instead of `NotImplementedError` when
a path operation is not supported. It can be raised from `Path.readlink()`,
`symlink_to()`, `hardlink_to()`, `owner()` and `group()`. In a future
version of pathlib, it will be raised by `AbstractPath` for these methods
and others, such as `AbstractPath.mkdir()` and `unlink()`.
* Add tests on PyImport_AddModuleRef(), PyImport_AddModule() and
PyImport_AddModuleObject().
* pythonrun.c: Replace Py_XNewRef(PyImport_AddModule(name)) with
PyImport_AddModuleRef(name).
Deprecate two methods of creating typing.TypedDict classes with 0 fields using the functional syntax: `TD = TypedDict("TD")` and `TD = TypedDict("TD", None)`. Both will be disallowed in Python 3.15. To create a TypedDict class with 0 fields, either use `class TD(TypedDict): pass` or `TD = TypedDict("TD", {})`.
Deprecate creating a typing.NamedTuple class using keyword arguments to denote the fields (`NT = NamedTuple("NT", x=int, y=str)`). This will be disallowed in Python 3.15. Use the class-based syntax or the functional syntax instead.
Two methods of creating `NamedTuple` classes with 0 fields using the functional syntax are also deprecated, and will be disallowed in Python 3.15: `NT = NamedTuple("NT")` and `NT = NamedTuple("NT", None)`. To create a `NamedTuple` class with 0 fields, either use `class NT(NamedTuple): pass` or `NT = NamedTuple("NT", [])`.
When Python is built in debug mode (if the Py_REF_DEBUG macro is
defined), the Py_INCREF() and Py_DECREF() function are now always
implemented as opaque functions to avoid leaking implementation
details like the "_Py_RefTotal" variable or the
_Py_DecRefTotal_DO_NOT_USE_THIS() function.
* Remove _Py_IncRefTotal_DO_NOT_USE_THIS() and
_Py_DecRefTotal_DO_NOT_USE_THIS() from the stable ABI.
* Remove _Py_NegativeRefcount() from limited C API.
Remove functions in the C API:
* PyEval_AcquireLock()
* PyEval_ReleaseLock()
* PyEval_InitThreads()
* PyEval_ThreadsInitialized()
But keep these functions in the stable ABI.
Mention "make regen-limited-abi" in "make regen-all".
Remove the following old functions to configure the Python
initialization, deprecated in Python 3.11:
* PySys_AddWarnOptionUnicode()
* PySys_AddWarnOption()
* PySys_AddXOption()
* PySys_HasWarnOptions()
* PySys_SetArgvEx()
* PySys_SetArgv()
* PySys_SetPath()
* Py_SetPath()
* Py_SetProgramName()
* Py_SetPythonHome()
* Py_SetStandardStreamEncoding()
* _Py_SetProgramFullPath()
Most of these functions are kept in the stable ABI, except:
* Py_SetStandardStreamEncoding()
* _Py_SetProgramFullPath()
Update Doc/extending/embedding.rst and Doc/extending/extending.rst to
use the new PyConfig API.
_testembed.c:
* check_stdio_details() now sets stdio_encoding and stdio_errors
of PyConfig.
* Add definitions of functions removed from the API but kept in the
stable ABI.
* test_init_from_config() and test_init_read_set() now use
PyConfig_SetString() instead of PyConfig_SetBytesString().
Remove _Py_ClearStandardStreamEncoding() internal function.
Deprecate the old Py_UNICODE and PY_UNICODE_TYPE types in the C API:
use wchar_t instead.
Replace Py_UNICODE with wchar_t in multiple C files.

`PurePath.match()` now handles the `**` wildcard as in `Path.glob()`, i.e. it matches any number of path segments.
We now compile a `re.Pattern` object for the entire pattern. This is made more difficult by `fnmatch` not treating directory separators as special when evaluating wildcards (`*`, `?`, etc), and so we arrange the path parts onto separate *lines* in a string, and ensure we don't set `re.DOTALL`.

Add a keyword-only *follow_symlinks* parameter to `pathlib.Path.glob()` and`rglob()`.
When *follow_symlinks* is `None` (the default), these methods follow symlinks except when evaluating "`**`" wildcards. When set to true or false, symlinks are always or never followed, respectively.
* Remove the Lib/test/imghdrdata/ directory.
* Copy 5 pictures (gif, png, ppm, pgm, xbm) from removed
Lib/test/imghdrdata/ to a new Lib/test/tkinterdata/ directory.
* Update Sphinx from 4.5 to 6.2 in Doc/requirements.txt.
* socket_helper.transient_internet() no longer imports nntplib to

* ssltests.py no longer runs test_nntplib.
* "make quicktest" no longer runs test_nntplib.
* WASM: remove nntplib from OMIT_NETWORKING_FILES.
* Remove mentions to nntplib in the email documentation.
In Python 3.8 and prior, `pathlib.Path.__exit__()` marked a path as closed;
some subsequent attempts to perform I/O would raise an IOError. This
functionality was never documented, and had the effect of making `Path`
objects mutable, contrary to PEP 428. In Python 3.9 we made `__exit__()` a
no-op, and in 3.11 `__enter__()` began raising deprecation warnings. Here
we remove both methods.
* Support for conversion specifiers o (octal) and X (uppercase hexadecimal).
* Support for length modifiers j (intmax_t) and t (ptrdiff_t).
* Length modifiers are now applied to all integer conversions.
* Support for wchar_t C strings (%ls and %lV).
* Support for variable width and precision (*).
* Support for flag - (left alignment).
`ast.Num`, `ast.Str`, `ast.Bytes`, `ast.Ellipsis` and `ast.NameConstant` now all emit deprecation warnings on import, access, instantation or `isinstance()` checks.

The bitwise inversion operator on bool returns the bitwise inversion of the
underlying int value; i.e. `~True == -2` such that `bool(~True) == True`.
It's a common pitfall that users mistake `~` as negation operator and actually
want `not`. Supporting `~` is an artifact of bool inheriting from int. Since there
is no real use-case for the current behavior, let's deprecate `~` on bool and
later raise an error. This removes a potential source errors for users.

The default task name is "Task-<counter>" (if no name is passed in during Task creation).
This is initialized in `Task.__init__` (C impl) using string formatting, which can be quite slow.
Actually using the task name in real world code is not very common, so this is wasted init.
Let's defer this string formatting to the first time the name is read (in `get_name` impl),
so we don't need to pay the string formatting cost if the task name is never read.
We don't change the order in which tasks are assigned numbers (if they are) --
the number is set on task creation, as a PyLong instead of a formatted string.

This is the implementation of PEP683
Motivation:
The PR introduces the ability to immortalize instances in CPython which bypasses reference counting. Tagging objects as immortal allows up to skip certain operations when we know that the object will be around for the entire execution of the runtime.
Note that this by itself will bring a performance regression to the runtime due to the extra reference count checks. However, this brings the ability of having truly immutable objects that are useful in other contexts such as immutable data sharing between sub-interpreters.

This deprecates `st_ctime` fields on Windows, with the intent to change them to contain the correct value in 3.14. For now, they should keep returning the creation time as they always have.
Refactored the implementation of pty.fork to use os.login_tty.

This starts the process. Users who don't specify their own start method
and use the default on platforms where it is 'fork' will see a
DeprecationWarning upon multiprocessing.Pool() construction or upon
multiprocessing.Process.start() or concurrent.futures.ProcessPool use.
See the related issue and documentation within this change for details.
When testing element truth values, emit a DeprecationWarning in all implementations.
This had emitted a FutureWarning in the rarely used python-only implementation since ~2.7 and has always been documented as a behavior not to rely on.
Matching an element in a tree search but having it test False can be unexpected. Raising the warning enables making the choice to finally raise an exception for this ambiguous behavior in the future.
This PR adds support for float-style formatting for `Fraction` objects: it supports the `"e"`, `"E"`, `"f"`, `"F"`, `"g"`, `"G"` and `"%"` presentation types, and all the various bells and whistles of the formatting mini-language for those presentation types. The behaviour almost exactly matches that of `float`, but the implementation works with the exact `Fraction` value and does not do an intermediate conversion to `float`, and so avoids loss of precision or issues with numbers that are outside the dynamic range of the `float` type.
Note that the `"n"` presentation type is _not_ supported. That support could be added later if people have a need for it.
There's one corner-case where the behaviour differs from that of float: for the `float` type, if explicit alignment is specified with a fill character of `'0'` and alignment type `'='`, then thousands separators (if specified) are inserted into the padding string:
```python
>>> format(3.14, '0=11,.2f')
'0,000,003.14'
```
The exact same effect can be achieved by using the `'0'` flag:
```python
>>> format(3.14, '011,.2f')
'0,000,003.14'
```
For `Fraction`, only the `'0'` flag has the above behaviour with respect to thousands separators: there's no special-casing of the particular `'0='` fill-character/alignment combination. Instead, we treat the fill character `'0'` just like any other:
```python
>>> format(Fraction('3.14'), '0=11,.2f')
'00000003.14'
>>> format(Fraction('3.14'), '011,.2f')
'0,000,003.14'
```
The `Fraction` formatter is also stricter about combining these two things: it's not permitted to use both the `'0'` flag _and_ explicit alignment, on the basis that we should refuse the temptation to guess in the face of ambiguity. `float` is less picky:
```python
>>> format(3.14, '0<011,.2f')
'3.140000000'
>>> format(Fraction('3.14'), '0<011,.2f')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/Users/mdickinson/Repositories/python/cpython/Lib/fractions.py", line 414, in __format__

asyncio.DefaultEventLoopPolicy.get_event_loop() now emits a
DeprecationWarning and creates and sets a new event loop instead of
raising a RuntimeError if there is no current event loop set.
Co-authored-by: Guido van Rossum <gvanrossum@gmail.com>
This introduces a new decorator `@inspect.markcoroutinefunction`,
which, applied to a sync function, makes it appear async to
`inspect.iscoroutinefunction()`.
The Py_CLEAR(), Py_SETREF() and Py_XSETREF() macros now only evaluate
their arguments once. If an argument has side effects, these side
effects are no longer duplicated.
Use temporary variables to avoid duplicating side effects of macro
arguments. If available, use _Py_TYPEOF() to avoid type punning.
Otherwise, use memcpy() for the assignment to prevent a
miscompilation with strict aliasing caused by type punning.
Add _Py_TYPEOF() macro: __typeof__() on GCC and clang.
Add test_py_clear() and test_py_setref() unit tests to _testcapi.
asyncio.get_event_loop() now always return either running event loop or
the result of get_event_loop_policy().get_event_loop() call. The latter
should now raise an RuntimeError if no current event loop was set
instead of creating and setting a new event loop.
It affects also a number of asyncio functions and constructors which
call get_event_loop() implicitly: ensure_future(), shield(), gather(),
etc.
DeprecationWarning is no longer emitted if there is no running event loop but
the current event loop was set.

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.

parameters.
ftplib: Remove the FTP_TLS.ssl_version class attribute: use the
context parameter instead.
A backslash-character pair that is not a valid escape sequence now
generates a SyntaxWarning, instead of DeprecationWarning. For
example, re.compile("\d+\.\d+") now emits a SyntaxWarning ("\d" is an
invalid escape sequence), use raw strings for regular expression:
re.compile(r"\d+\.\d+"). In a future Python version, SyntaxError will
eventually be raised, instead of SyntaxWarning.
Octal escapes with value larger than 0o377 (ex: "\477"), deprecated
in Python 3.11, now produce a SyntaxWarning, instead of
DeprecationWarning. In a future Python version they will be
eventually a SyntaxError.
codecs.escape_decode() and codecs.unicode_escape_decode() are left
unchanged: they still emit DeprecationWarning.
* The parser only emits SyntaxWarning for Python 3.12 (feature
version), and still emits DeprecationWarning on older Python
versions.
* Fix SyntaxWarning by using raw strings in Tools/c-analyzer/ and
wasm_build.py.

Part of #95913
Forward port of #93306, which was a backport of #93185, to address #84694
This adds the What's New entry for the removal of the subinterpreter-related env variable, build-time flag, etc. As @ericsnowcurrently was author of the original changes, I added him as a co-author to the commit.
This addition to the Python 3.11 What's New document were only made to the Python 3.11 branch during the backport process, and not added to the version in `main`. Forward-porting it ensures the docs retain these additions for the future, rather than being lost in a legacy Python versions, allows it to be be edited as part of #95913 , and avoids merge conflicts with routine back-ports of PRs touching it.
I've pulled in the addition exactly as-is with no modifications; any editing will be done in future PRs (and therefore can be reviewed and backported accordingly).
The one other such addition is forward-ported in #98344
This is the next step for deprecating child watchers.

I wrote up [a one pager for the release managers](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KjuF_aXlzPUxTK4BMgezGJ2Pn7uevfX7g0_mvgHlL7Y/edit#). Much of that text wound up in the Issue. Backports PRs already exist. See the issue for links.
The previous wording of this entry suggests that CPython
won't work if optional compiler features are enabled.
That's not the case. The change is that we require C11 rather
than C89.
Note that PEP 7 does say "Python 3.11 and newer versions use C11
without optional features." It is correct there: that's
not a guide for users who compile Python, but for CPython devs
who must avoid the features.
* Add support for the BOLT post-link binary optimizer
Using [bolt](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/tree/main/bolt)
provides a fairly large speedup without any code or functionality
changes. It provides roughly a 1% speedup on pyperformance, and a
4% improvement on the Pyston web macrobenchmarks.
It is gated behind an `--enable-bolt` configure arg because not all
toolchains and environments are supported. It has been tested on a
Linux x86_64 toolchain, using llvm-bolt built from the LLVM 14.0.6
sources (their binary distribution of this version did not include bolt).
Compared to [a previous attempt](https://github.com/faster-cpython/ideas/issues/224),
this commit uses bolt's preferred "instrumentation" approach, as well as adds some non-PIE
flags which enable much better optimizations from bolt.
The effects of this change are a bit more dependent on CPU microarchitecture
than other changes, since it optimizes i-cache behavior which seems
to be a bit more variable between architectures. The 1%/4% numbers
were collected on an Intel Skylake CPU, and on an AMD Zen 3 CPU I
got a slightly larger speedup (2%/4%), and on a c6i.xlarge EC2 instance
I got a slightly lower speedup (1%/3%).
The low speedup on pyperformance is not entirely unexpected, because
BOLT improves i-cache behavior, and the benchmarks in the pyperformance
suite are small and tend to fit in i-cache.
This change uses the existing pgo profiling task (`python -m test --pgo`),
though I was able to measure about a 1% macrobenchmark improvement by
using the macrobenchmarks as the training task. I personally think that
both the PGO and BOLT tasks should be updated to use macrobenchmarks,
but for the sake of splitting up the work this PR uses the existing pgo task.

* Treat tp_weakref and tp_dictoffset like other opaque slots for multiple inheritance.
* Document Py_TPFLAGS_MANAGED_DICT and Py_TPFLAGS_MANAGED_WEAKREF in what's new.
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.

This PR is required to reduce diffs of the following porting (no need to either maintain documentation and tests consistent with each porting step, or try to port everything and remove smtpd in a single PR).

If an HTTP link is redirected to a same looking HTTPS link, the latter can
be used directly without changes in readability and behavior.
It protects from a men-in-the-middle attack.
This change does not affect Python examples.
