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 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.
Generally comparable perf for the "good" case where memchr doesn't
return any collisions (false matches on lower byte) but clearly faster
with collisions.
* Remove m68k-specific hack from ascii_decode
On m68k, alignments of primitives is more relaxed, with 4-byte and
8-byte types only requiring 2-byte alignment, thus using sizeof(size_t)
does not work. Instead, use the portable alternative.
Note that this is a minimal fix that only relaxes the assertion and the
condition for when to use the optimised version remains overly strict.
Such issues will be fixed tree-wide in the next commit.
NB: In C11 we could use _Alignof(size_t) instead, but for compatibility
we use autoconf.
* Optimise string routines for architectures with non-natural alignment
C only requires that sizeof(x) is a multiple of alignof(x), not that the
two are equal. Thus anywhere where we optimise based on alignment we
should be using alignof(x) not sizeof(x).
This is more annoying than it would be in C11 where we could just use
_Alignof(x) (and alignof(x) in C++11), but since we still require only
C99 we must plumb the information all the way from autoconf through the
various typedefs and defines.
Add _PyIndex_Check() function to the internal C API: fast inlined
verson of PyIndex_Check().
Add Include/internal/pycore_abstract.h header file.
Replace PyIndex_Check() with _PyIndex_Check() in C files of Objects
and Python subdirectories.
Move the bytes_methods.h header file to the internal C API as
pycore_bytes_methods.h: it only contains private symbols (prefixed by
"_Py"), except of the PyDoc_STRVAR_shared() macro.
gcc -Wcast-qual turns up a number of instances of casting away constness of pointers. Some of these can be safely modified, by either:
Adding the const to the type cast, as in:
- return _PyUnicode_FromUCS1((unsigned char*)s, size);
+ return _PyUnicode_FromUCS1((const unsigned char*)s, size);
or, Removing the cast entirely, because it's not necessary (but probably was at one time), as in:
- PyDTrace_FUNCTION_ENTRY((char *)filename, (char *)funcname, lineno);
+ PyDTrace_FUNCTION_ENTRY(filename, funcname, lineno);
These changes will not change code, but they will make it much easier to check for errors in consts
Some time ago we changed the docs to consistently use the term 'bytes-like
object' in all the contexts where bytes, bytearray, memoryview, etc are used.
This patch (by Ezio Melotti) completes that work by changing the error
messages that previously reported that certain types did "not support the
buffer interface" to instead say that a bytes-like object is required. (The
glossary entry for bytes-like object references the discussion of the buffer
protocol in the docs.)
