Pablo Galindo ec74d187f5 bpo-33613, test_semaphore_tracker_sigint: fix race condition (#7850)
Fail `test_semaphore_tracker_sigint` if no warnings are expected and one is received.

Fix race condition when the child receives SIGINT before it can register signal handlers for it.

The race condition occurs when the parent calls
`_semaphore_tracker.ensure_running()` (which in turn spawns the
semaphore_tracker using `_posixsubprocess.fork_exec`), the child
registers the signal handlers and the parent tries to kill the child.
What seem to happen is that in some slow systems, the parent sends the
signal to kill the child before the child protects against the signal.

bpo-31310: multiprocessing's semaphore tracker should be launched again if crashed (#3247)
* bpo-31310: multiprocessing's semaphore tracker should be launched again if crashed

* Avoid mucking with process state in test.
Add a warning if the semaphore process died, as semaphores may then be leaked.

* Add NEWS entry

Allen W. Smith, Ph.D bd73e72b4a bpo-5001: More-informative multiprocessing error messages (#3079)
* Make error message more informative

Replace assertions in error-reporting code with more-informative version that doesn't cause confusion over where and what the error is.

* Additional clarification + get travis to check

* Change from SystemError to TypeError

As suggested in PR comment by @pitrou, changing from SystemError; TypeError appears appropriate.

* NEWS file installation; ACKS addition (will do my best to justify it by additional work)

* Making current AssertionErrors in multiprocessing more informative

* Blurb added re multiprocessing managers.py, queues.py cleanup

* Further multiprocessing cleanup - went through pool.py

* Fix two asserts in multiprocessing/util.py

* Most asserts in multiprocessing more informative

* Didn't save right version

* Further work on multiprocessing error messages

* Correct typo

* Correct typo v2

* Blasted colon... serves me right for trying to work on two things at once

* Simplify NEWS entry

* Update 2017-08-18-17-16-38.bpo-5001.gwnthq.rst

* Update 2017-08-18-17-16-38.bpo-5001.gwnthq.rst

OK, never mind.

* Corrected (thanks to pitrou) error messages for notify

* Remove extraneous backslash in docstring.

Richard Oudkerk b1694cf588 Issue #18999: Make multiprocessing use context objects.
This allows different parts of a program to use different methods for
starting processes without interfering with each other.
