Michael W. Hudson 30ea2f223f This closes patch: 
[ 960406 ] unblock signals in threads

although the changes do not correspond exactly to any patch attached to
that report.

Non-main threads no longer have all signals masked.

A different interface to readline is used.

The handling of signals inside calls to PyOS_Readline is now rather
different.

These changes are all a bit scary!  Review and cross-platform testing
much appreciated.

Tim Peters 9ddf40b4e1 SF patch 876130: add C API to datetime module, from Anthony Tuininga. 
The LaTeX is untested (well, so is the new API, for that matter).
Note that I also changed NULL to get spelled consistently in concrete.tex.
If that was a wrong thing to do, Fred should yell at me.

Raymond Hettinger 57c2d930f6 Add a final permutation step to the tuple hash function. 
Prevents a collision pattern that occurs with nested tuples.

Raymond Hettinger 354433a59d SF patch #872326: Generator expression implementation 
(Code contributed by Jiwon Seo.)

The documentation portion of the patch is being re-worked and will be
checked-in soon.  Likewise, PEP 289 will be updated to reflect Guido's
rationale for the design decisions on binding behavior (as described in
in his patch comments and in discussions on python-dev).

The test file, test_genexps.py, is written in doctest format and is
meant to exercise all aspects of the the patch.  Further additions are
welcome from everyone.  Please stress test this new feature as much as
possible before the alpha release.

Raymond Hettinger 31017aed36 SF #904720: dict.update should take a 2-tuple sequence like dict.__init_ 
(Championed by Bob Ippolito.)

The update() method for mappings now accepts all the same argument forms
as the dict() constructor.  This includes item lists and/or keyword
arguments.

Andrew MacIntyre f1ca7f561c complete backout of listobject.c v2.171 2003-12-28 07:43:56 +00:00
Andrew MacIntyre d57caed52c Performance of list([]) in 2.3 came up in a thread on comp.lang.python, 
which can be reviewed via
http://coding.derkeiler.com/Archive/Python/comp.lang.python/2003-12/1011.html

Duncan Booth investigated, and discovered that an "optimisation" was
in fact a pessimisation for small numbers of elements in a source list,
compared to not having the optimisation, although with large numbers
of elements in the source list the optimisation was quite beneficial.

He posted his change to comp.lang.python (but not to SF).

Further research has confirmed his assessment that the optimisation only
becomes a net win when the source list has more than 100 elements.

I also found that the optimisation could apply to tuples as well,
but the gains only arrive with source tuples larger than about 320
elements and are nowhere near as significant as the gains with lists,
(~95% gain @ 10000 elements for lists, ~20% gain @ 10000 elements for
tuples) so I haven't proceeded with this.

The code as it was applied the optimisation to list subclasses as
well, and this also appears to be a net loss for all reasonable sized
sources (~80-100% for up to 100 elements, ~20% for more than 500
elements; I tested up to 10000 elements).

Duncan also suggested special casing empty lists, which I've extended
to all empty sequences.

On the basis that list_fill() is only ever called with a list for the
result argument, testing for the source being the destination has
now happens before testing source types.

Guido van Rossum 47dfa4a89a Patch by Jp Calderone: 
- The socket module now provides the functions inet_pton and inet_ntop
  for converting between string and packed representation of IP addresses.
  See SF patch #658327.

This still needs a bit of work in the doc area, because it is not
available on all platforms (especially not on Windows).
 2003-04-25 05:48:32 +00:00
Guido van Rossum a26854095b - Several methods of nntplib.NNTP have grown an optional file argument 
which specifies a file where to divert the command's output
  (already supported by the body() method).  (SF patch #720468)
  Thanks to Terry Carroll.

Tim Peters 4643bd9a9c Apparently FreeBSD enables some HW floating-point exceptions by default. 
This can cause core dumps when Python runs.  Python relies on the 754-
(and C99-) mandated default "non-stop" mode for FP exceptions.  This
patch from Ben Laurie disables at least one FP exception on FreeBSD at
Python startup time.

Tim Peters 5af4e6c739 Cautious introduction of a patch that started from 
SF 560379:  Karatsuba multiplication.
Lots of things were changed from that.  This needs a lot more testing,
for correctness and speed, the latter especially when bit lengths are
unbalanced.  For now, the Karatsuba code gets invoked if and only if
envar KARAT exists.

Guido van Rossum 2eb0b87d14 SF patch 514641 (Naofumi Honda) - Negative ob_size of LongObjects 
Due to the bizarre definition of _PyLong_Copy(), creating an instance
of a subclass of long with a negative value could cause core dumps
later on.  Unfortunately it looks like the behavior of _PyLong_Copy()
is quite intentional, so the fix is more work than feels comfortable.

This fix is almost, but not quite, the code that Naofumi Honda added;
in addition, I added a test case.

2.2.1).

Tim Peters e64ef931d6 SF patch 522961: Leak in Python/thread_nt.h, from Gerald S. Williams. 
A file-static "threads" dict mapped thread IDs to Windows handles, but

the YAGNI-dict entirely.

Tim Peters 1fbb577ee2 SF bug #494738: binascii_b2a_base64 overwrites memory. 
binascii_b2a_base64():  We didn't allocate enough buffer space for very
short inputs (e.g., a 1-byte input can produce a 5-byte output, but we
only allocated 2 bytes).  I expect that malloc overheads absorbed the
overrun in practice, but computing a correct upper bound is a very simple
change.

Guido van Rossum 146483964e Patch supplied by Burton Radons for his own SF bug #487390: Modifying 
type.__module__ behavior.

This adds the module name and a dot in front of the type name in every
type object initializer, except for built-in types (and those that
already had this).  Note that it touches lots of Mac modules -- I have
no way to test these but the changes look right.  Apologies if they're
not.  This also touches the weakref docs, which contains a sample type
object initializer.  It also touches the mmap test output, because the
mmap type's repr is included in that output.  It touches object.h to
put the correct description in a comment.

Tim Peters 25059d30c3 SF patch #489173: Make os.spawnv not block the interpreter, from 
Anthony Roach.
Release the global interpreter lock around platform spawn calls.
Bugfix candidate?  Hard to say; I favor "yes, bugfix".
These clearly *should* have been releasing the GIL all along, if for no
other reason than compatibility with the similar os.system().  But it's
possible some program out there is (a) multithreaded, (b) calling a spawn
function with P_WAIT, and (c) relying on the spawn call to block all their
threads until the spawned program completes.  I think it's very unlikely
anyone is doing that on purpose, but someone may be doing so by accident.

Guido van Rossum 00ebd46dfc SF patch #474175 (Jay T Miller): file.readinto arg parsing bug 
The C-code in fileobject.readinto(buffer) which parses
    the arguments assumes that size_t is interchangeable
    with int:

	    size_t ntodo, ndone, nnow;

	    if (f->f_fp == NULL)
		    return err_closed();
	    if (!PyArg_Parse(args, "w#", &ptr, &ntodo))
		    return NULL;

    This causes a problem on Alpha / Tru64 / OSF1 v5.1
    where size_t is a long and sizeof(long) != sizeof(int).

    The patch I'm proposing declares ntodo as an int.  An
    alternative might be to redefine w# to expect size_t.

[We can't change w# because there are probably third party modules
relying on it. GvR]

PyMember_Set of T_CHAR always raises exception.
Unfortunately, this is a use of a C API function that Python itself never makes, so
there's no .py test I can check in to verify this stays fixed.  But the fault in the
