We add _winapi.BatchedWaitForMultipleObjects to wait for larger numbers of handles.
This is an internal module, hence undocumented, and should be used with caution.
Check the docstring for info before using BatchedWaitForMultipleObjects.
`_multiprocessing` is only used under the `if _winapi:` block, this moves the import to be within the `_winapi` ImportError handling try/except for equivalent treatment.
Follow-up of gh-107219.
* Only close the connection writer on Windows.
* Also use existing constant _winapi.ERROR_OPERATION_ABORTED instead of
WSA_OPERATION_ABORTED.
Fix a race condition in concurrent.futures. When a process in the
process pool was terminated abruptly (while the future was running or
pending), close the connection write end. If the call queue is
blocked on sending bytes to a worker process, closing the connection
write end interrupts the send, so the queue can be closed.
Changes:
* _ExecutorManagerThread.terminate_broken() now closes
call_queue._writer.
* multiprocessing PipeConnection.close() now interrupts
WaitForMultipleObjects() in _send_bytes() by cancelling the
overlapped operation.
bpo-17258: `multiprocessing` now supports stronger HMAC algorithms for inter-process connection authentication rather than only HMAC-MD5.

gpshead: I Reworked to be more robust while keeping the idea.
The protocol modification idea remains, but we now take advantage of the
message length as an indicator of legacy vs modern protocol version. No
more regular expression usage. We now default to HMAC-SHA256, but do so
in a way that will be compatible when communicating with older clients
or older servers. No protocol transition period is needed.
More integration tests to verify these claims remain true are required. I'm
unaware of anyone depending on multiprocessing connections between
different Python versions.

Describe the multiprocessing connection protocol.
It isn't a good protocol, but it is what it is. This way we can more
easily reason about making changes to it in a backwards compatible way.
Linux abstract sockets are insecure as they lack any form of filesystem
permissions so their use allows anyone on the system to inject code into
the process.
This removes the default preference for abstract sockets in
multiprocessing introduced in Python 3.9+ via
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/18866 while fixing
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/84031.
Explicit use of an abstract socket by a user now generates a
RuntimeWarning. If we choose to keep this warning, it should be
backported to the 3.7 and 3.8 branches.
* 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.
