Document the surprising sideeffect PyErr_Print(). (#12081)
Did you know an API documented as printing the pending traceback would sometimes exit the process?

You do now.

bpo-35224: PEP 572 Implementation (#10497)
* Add tokenization of :=
- Add token to Include/token.h. Add token to documentation in Doc/library/token.rst.
- Run `./python Lib/token.py` to regenerate Lib/token.py.
- Update Parser/tokenizer.c: add case to handle `:=`.

* Add initial usage of := in grammar.

* Update Python.asdl to match the grammar updates. Regenerated Include/Python-ast.h and Python/Python-ast.c

* Update AST and compiler files in Python/ast.c and Python/compile.c. Basic functionality, this isn't scoped properly

* Regenerate Lib/symbol.py using `./python Lib/symbol.py`

* Tests - Fix failing tests in test_parser.py due to changes in token numbers for internal representation

* Tests - Add simple test for := token

* Tests - Add simple tests for named expressions using expr and suite

* Tests - Update number of levels for nested expressions to prevent stack overflow

* Update symbol table to handle NamedExpr

* Update Grammar to allow assignment expressions in if statements.
Regenerate Python/graminit.c accordingly using `make regen-grammar`

* Tests - Add additional tests for named expressions in RoundtripLegalSyntaxTestCase, based on examples and information directly from PEP 572

Note: failing tests are currently commented out (4 out of 24 tests currently fail)

* Tests - Add temporary syntax test failure tests in test_parser.py

Note: There is an outstanding TODO for this -- syntax tests need to be
moved to a different file (presumably test_syntax.py), but this is
covering what needs to be tested at the moment, and it's more convenient
to run a single test for the time being

* Add support for allowing assignment expressions as function argument annotations. Uncomment tests for these cases because they all pass now!

* Tests - Move existing syntax tests out of test_parser.py and into test_named_expressions.py. Refactor syntax tests to use unittest

* Add TargetScopeError exception to extend SyntaxError

Note: This simply creates the TargetScopeError exception, it is not yet
used anywhere

* Tests - Update tests per PEP 572

Continue refactoring test suite:
The named expression test suite now checks for any invalid cases that
throw exceptions (no longer limited to SyntaxErrors), assignment tests
to ensure that variables are properly assigned, and scope tests to
ensure that variable availability and values are correct

Note:
- There are still tests that are marked to skip, as they are not yet
implemented
- There are approximately 300 lines of the PEP that have not yet been
addressed, though these may be deferred

* Documentation - Small updates to XXX/todo comments

- Remove XXX from child description in ast.c
- Add comment with number of previously supported nested expressions for
3.7.X in test_parser.py

* Fix assert in seq_for_testlist()

* Cleanup - Denote "Not implemented -- No keyword args" on failing test case. Fix PEP8 error for blank lines at beginning of test classes in test_parser.py

* Tests - Wrap all file opens in `with...as` to ensure files are closed

* WIP: handle f(a := 1)

* Tests and Cleanup - No longer skips keyword arg test. Keyword arg test now uses a simpler test case and does not rely on an external file. Remove print statements from ast.c

* Tests - Refactor last remaining test case that relied on on external file to use a simpler test case without the dependency

* Tests - Add better description of remaning skipped tests. Add test checking scope when using assignment expression in a function argument

* Tests - Add test for nested comprehension, testing value and scope. Fix variable name in skipped comprehension scope test

* Handle restriction of LHS for named expressions - can only assign to LHS of type NAME. Specifically, restrict assignment to tuples

This adds an alternative set_context specifically for named expressions,
set_namedexpr_context. Thus, context is now set differently for standard
assignment versus assignment for named expressions in order to handle
restrictions.

* Tests - Update negative test case for assigning to lambda to match new error message. Add negative test case for assigning to tuple

* Tests - Reorder test cases to group invalid syntax cases and named assignment target errors

* Tests - Update test case for named expression in function argument - check that result and variable are set correctly

* Todo - Add todo for TargetScopeError based on Guido's comment (2b3acd37bd (r30472562))

* Tests - Add named expression tests for assignment operator in function arguments

Note: One of two tests are skipped, as function arguments are currently treating
an assignment expression inside of parenthesis as one child, which does
not properly catch the named expression, nor does it count arguments
properly

* Add NamedStore to expr_context. Regenerate related code with `make regen-ast`

* Add usage of NamedStore to ast_for_named_expr in ast.c. Update occurances of checking for Store to also handle NamedStore where appropriate

* Add ste_comprehension to _symtable_entry to track if the namespace is a comprehension. Initialize ste_comprehension to 0. Set set_comprehension to 1 in symtable_handle_comprehension

* s/symtable_add_def/symtable_add_def_helper. Add symtable_add_def to handle grabbing st->st_cur and passing it to symtable_add_def_helper. This now allows us to call the original code from symtable_add_def by instead calling symtable_add_def_helper with a different ste.

* Refactor symtable_record_directive to take lineno and col_offset as arguments instead of stmt_ty. This allows symtable_record_directive to be used for stmt_ty and expr_ty

* Handle elevating scope for named expressions in comprehensions.

* Handle error for usage of named expression inside a class block

* Tests - No longer skip scope tests. Add additional scope tests

* Cleanup - Update error message for named expression within a comprehension within a class. Update comments. Add assert for symtable_extend_namedexpr_scope to validate that we always find at least a ModuleScope if we don't find a Class or FunctionScope

* Cleanup - Add missing case for NamedStore in expr_context_name. Remove unused var in set_namedexpr_content

* Refactor - Consolidate set_context and set_namedexpr_context to reduce duplicated code. Special cases for named expressions are handled by checking if ctx is NamedStore

* Cleanup - Add additional use cases for ast_for_namedexpr in usage comment. Fix multiple blank lines in test_named_expressions

* Tests - Remove unnecessary test case. Renumber test case function names

* Remove TargetScopeError for now. Will add back if needed

* Cleanup - Small comment nit for consistency

* Handle positional argument check with named expression

* Add TargetScopeError exception definition. Add documentation for TargetScopeError in c-api docs. Throw TargetScopeError instead of SyntaxError when using a named expression in a comprehension within a class scope

* Increase stack size for parser by 200. This is a minimal change (approx. 5kb) and should not have an impact on any systems. Update parser test to allow 99 nested levels again

* Add TargetScopeError to exception_hierarchy.txt for test_baseexception.py_

* Tests - Major update for named expression tests, both in test_named_expressions and test_parser

- Add test for TargetScopeError
- Add tests for named expressions in comprehension scope and edge cases
- Add tests for named expressions in function arguments (declarations
and call sites)
- Reorganize tests to group them more logically

* Cleanup - Remove unnecessary comment

* Cleanup - Comment nitpicks

* Explicitly disallow assignment expressions to a name inside parentheses, e.g.: ((x) := 0)

- Add check for LHS types to detect a parenthesis then a name (see note)
- Add test for this scenario
- Update tests for changed error message for named assignment to a tuple
(also, see note)

Note: This caused issues with the previous error handling for named assignment
to a LHS that contained an expression, such as a tuple. Thus, the check
for the LHS of a named expression must be changed to be more specific if
we wish to maintain the previous error messages

* Cleanup - Wrap lines more strictly in test file

* Revert "Explicitly disallow assignment expressions to a name inside parentheses, e.g.: ((x) := 0)"

This reverts commit f1531400ca7d7a2d148830c8ac703f041740896d.

* Add NEWS.d entry

* Tests - Fix error in test_pickle.test_exceptions by adding TargetScopeError to list of exceptions

* Tests - Update error message tests to reflect improved messaging convention (s/can't/cannot)

* Remove cases that cannot be reached in compile.c. Small linting update.

* Update Grammar/Tokens to add COLONEQUAL. Regenerate all files

* Update TargetScopeError PRE_INIT and POST_INIT, as this was purposefully left out when fixing rebase conflicts

* Add NamedStore back and regenerate files

* Pass along line number and end col info for named expression

* Simplify News entry

* Fix compiler warning and explicity mark fallthrough

Modify locale.localeconv(), time.tzname, os.strerror() and other
functions to ignore the UTF-8 Mode: always use the current locale
encoding.

Changes:

* Add _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() and _Py_EncodeLocaleEx(). On decoding or
  encoding error, they return the position of the error and an error
  message which are used to raise Unicode errors in
  PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() and PyUnicode_EncodeLocale().
* Replace _Py_DecodeCurrentLocale() with _Py_DecodeLocaleEx().
* PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() now uses _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() for all
  cases, especially for the strict error handler.
* Add _Py_DecodeUTF8Ex(): return more information on decoding error
  and supports the strict error handler.
* Rename _Py_EncodeUTF8_surrogateescape() to _Py_EncodeUTF8Ex().
* Replace _Py_EncodeCurrentLocale() with _Py_EncodeLocaleEx().
* Ignore the UTF-8 mode to encode/decode localeconv(), strerror()
  and time zone name.
* Remove PyUnicode_DecodeLocale(), PyUnicode_DecodeLocaleAndSize()
  and PyUnicode_EncodeLocale() now ignore the UTF-8 mode: always use
  the "current" locale.
* Remove _PyUnicode_DecodeCurrentLocale(),
  _PyUnicode_DecodeCurrentLocaleAndSize() and
  _PyUnicode_EncodeCurrentLocale().

* If the LC_CTYPE locale is "C" at startup: enable automatically the
  UTF-8 mode.
* Add _winapi.GetACP(). encodings._alias_mbcs() now calls
  _winapi.GetACP() to get the ANSI code page
* locale.getpreferredencoding() now returns 'UTF-8' in the UTF-8
  mode. As a side effect, open() now uses the UTF-8 encoding by
  default in this mode.
* Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now use the UTF-8 encoding
  in the UTF-8 Mode.
* Update subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle -X utf8
* Skip some tests relying on the current locale if the UTF-8 mode is
  enabled.
* Add test_utf8mode.py.
* _Py_DecodeUTF8_surrogateescape() gets a new optional parameter to
  return also the length (number of wide characters).
* pymain_get_global_config() and pymain_set_global_config() now
  always copy flag values, rather than only copying if the new value
  is greater than the old value.

  _PyPathConfig_Calculate().
* Add home and program_name fields to _PyPathConfig.home
* _PyPathConfig_Init() now initialize home and program_name

bpo-20891: Fix PyGILState_Ensure() (#4650)

PyEval_InitThreads(), only call PyEval_InitThreads() after calling
PyThreadState_New() to fix a crash.

Add an unit test in test_embed.

bpo-32030: Rework memory allocators (#4625)
* Fix _PyMem_SetupAllocators("debug"): always restore allocators to
  the defaults, rather than only caling _PyMem_SetupDebugHooks().
* Add _PyMem_SetDefaultAllocator() helper to set the "default"
  allocator.
* Add _PyMem_GetAllocatorsName(): get the name of the allocators
* main() now uses debug hooks on memory allocators if Py_DEBUG is
  defined, rather than calling directly malloc()
* Document default memory allocators in C API documentation
* _Py_InitializeCore() now fails with a fatal user error if
  PYTHONMALLOC value is an unknown memory allocator, instead of
  failing with a fatal internal error.
* Add new tests on the PYTHONMALLOC environment variable
* Add support.with_pymalloc()
* Add the _testcapi.WITH_PYMALLOC constant and expose it as
   support.with_pymalloc().
* sysconfig.get_config_var('WITH_PYMALLOC') doesn't work on Windows, so
   replace it with support.with_pymalloc().
* pythoninfo: add _testcapi collector for pymem

Replace KB unit with KiB (#4293)
kB (*kilo* byte) unit means 1000 bytes, whereas KiB ("kibibyte")
means 1024 bytes. KB was misused: replace kB or KB with KiB when
appropriate.

Same change for MB and GB which become MiB and GiB.

Change the output of Tools/iobench/iobench.py.

Round also the size of the documentation from 5.5 MB to 5 MiB.

Eric Snow 3f9eee6eb4 bpo-28411: Support other mappings in PyInterpreterState.modules. (#3593)
The concrete PyDict_* API is used to interact with PyInterpreterState.modules in a number of places. This isn't compatible with all dict subclasses, nor with other Mapping implementations. This patch switches the concrete API usage to the corresponding abstract API calls.

We also add a PyImport_GetModule() function (and some other helpers) to reduce a bunch of code duplication.

Yury Selivanov bce294b993 docs.capi: Fix tp_as_async doc 2015-06-23 11:46:09 -04:00
Yury Selivanov 5376ba9630 Issue #24400: Introduce a distinct type for 'async def' coroutines.
Summary of changes:

1. Coroutines now have a distinct, separate from generators
   type at the C level: PyGen_Type, and a new typedef PyCoroObject.
   PyCoroObject shares the initial segment of struct layout with
   PyGenObject, making it possible to reuse existing generators
   machinery.  The new type is exposed as 'types.CoroutineType'.

   As a consequence of having a new type, CO_GENERATOR flag is
   no longer applied to coroutines.

2. Having a separate type for coroutines made it possible to add
   an __await__ method to the type.  Although it is not used by the
   interpreter (see details on that below), it makes coroutines
   naturally (without using __instancecheck__) conform to
   collections.abc.Coroutine and collections.abc.Awaitable ABCs.

   [The __instancecheck__ is still used for generator-based
   coroutines, as we don't want to add __await__ for generators.]

3. Add new opcode: GET_YIELD_FROM_ITER.  The opcode is needed to
   allow passing native coroutines to the YIELD_FROM opcode.

   Before this change, 'yield from o' expression was compiled to:

      (o)
      GET_ITER
      LOAD_CONST
      YIELD_FROM

   Now, we use GET_YIELD_FROM_ITER instead of GET_ITER.

   The reason for adding a new opcode is that GET_ITER is used
   in some contexts (such as 'for .. in' loops) where passing
   a coroutine object is invalid.

4. Add two new introspection functions to the inspec module:
   getcoroutinestate(c) and getcoroutinelocals(c).

5. inspect.iscoroutine(o) is updated to test if 'o' is a native
   coroutine object.  Before this commit it used abc.Coroutine,
   and it was requested to update inspect.isgenerator(o) to use
   abc.Generator; it was decided, however, that inspect functions
   should really be tailored for checking for native types.

6. sys.set_coroutine_wrapper(w) API is updated to work with only
   native coroutines.  Since types.coroutine decorator supports
   any type of callables now, it would be confusing that it does
   not work for all types of coroutines.

7. Exceptions logic in generators C implementation was updated
   to raise clearer messages for coroutines:

   Before: TypeError("generator raised StopIteration")
   After: TypeError("coroutine raised StopIteration")

Nick Coghlan d5cacbb1d9 PEP 489: Multi-phase extension module initialization
Known limitations of the current implementation:

- documentation changes are incomplete
- there's a reference leak I haven't tracked down yet

The leak is most visible by running:

  ./python -m test -R3:3 test_importlib

However, you can also see it by running:

  ./python -X showrefcount

Importing the array or _testmultiphase modules, and
then deleting them from both sys.modules and the local
namespace shows significant increases in the total
number of active references each cycle. By contrast,
with _testcapi (which continues to use single-phase
initialisation) the global refcounts stabilise after
a couple of cycles.

Larry Hastings 2a727916c5 Issue #20226: Major improvements to Argument Clinic.
* You may now specify an expression as the default value for a
  parameter!  Example: "sys.maxsize - 1".  This support is
  intentionally quite limited; you may only use values that
  can be represented as static C values.
* Removed "doc_default", simplified support for "c_default"
  and "py_default".  (I'm not sure we still even need
  "py_default", but I'm leaving it in for now in case a
  use presents itself.)
* Parameter lines support a trailing '\\' as a line
  continuation character, allowing you to break up long lines.
* The argument parsing code generated when supporting optional
  groups now uses PyTuple_GET_SIZE instead of PyTuple_GetSize,
  leading to a 850% speedup in parsing.  (Just kidding, this
  is an unmeasurable difference.)
* A bugfix for the recent regression where the generated
  prototype from pydoc for builtins would be littered with
  unreadable "=<object ...>"" default values for parameters
  that had no default value.
* Converted some asserts into proper failure messages.
* Many doc improvements and fixes.

Also refactors Modules/_testembed.c to let us start
testing multiple embedding scenarios.

Victor Stinner 2fe9bac4dc Close #16742: Fix misuse of memory allocations in PyOS_Readline()
The GIL must be held to call PyMem_Malloc(), whereas PyOS_Readline() releases
the GIL to read input.

The result of the C callback PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer must now be a string
allocated by PyMem_RawMalloc() or PyMem_RawRealloc() (or NULL if an error
occurred), instead of a string allocated by PyMem_Malloc() or PyMem_Realloc().

Fixing this issue was required to setup a hook on PyMem_Malloc(), for example
using the tracemalloc module.

PyOS_Readline() copies the result of PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer() into a new
buffer allocated by PyMem_Malloc(). So the public API of PyOS_Readline() does
not change.
