* "Return true/false" is replaced with "Return ``True``/``False``"
if the function actually returns a bool.
* Fixed formatting of some True and False literals (now in monospace).
* Replaced "True/False" with "true/false" if it can be not only bool.
* Replaced some 1/0 with True/False if it corresponds the code.
* "Returns <bool>" is replaced with "Return <bool>".
In a subinterpreter, spawning a daemon thread now raises an
exception. Daemon threads were never supported in subinterpreters.
Previously, the subinterpreter finalization crashed with a Pyton
fatal error if a daemon thread was still running.
* Add _thread._is_main_interpreter()
* threading.Thread.start() now raises RuntimeError if the thread is a
daemon thread and the method is called from a subinterpreter.
* The _thread module now uses Argument Clinic for the new function.
* Use textwrap.dedent() in test_threading.SubinterpThreadingTests
Document reference cycle and resurrected objects issues in
sys.unraisablehook() and threading.excepthook() documentation.
Fix test.support.catch_unraisable_exception(): __exit__() no longer
ignores unraisable exceptions.
Fix test_io test_writer_close_error_on_close(): use a second
catch_unraisable_exception() to catch the BufferedWriter unraisable
exception.
Add a new threading.excepthook() function which handles uncaught
Thread.run() exception. It can be overridden to control how uncaught
exceptions are handled.
threading.ExceptHookArgs is not documented on purpose: it should not
be used directly.
* threading.excepthook() and threading.ExceptHookArgs.
* Add _PyErr_Display(): similar to PyErr_Display(), but accept a
'file' parameter.
* Add _thread._excepthook(): C implementation of the exception hook
calling _PyErr_Display().
* Add _thread._ExceptHookArgs: structseq type.
* Add threading._invoke_excepthook_wrapper() which handles the gory
details to ensure that everything remains alive during Python
shutdown.
* Add unit tests.
Returning EINTR from pthread semaphore or lock acquisition is an optional POSIX
feature. musl does not provide this feature, so some threadsignal tests fail
when Python is built against it.
There's no good way to test for musl, so we skip if we're on Linux and not using
glibc pthreads.
Also, hedge in the threading documentation about when we can provide interrupts
from lock acquisition.
* fix issue32208: update threading.Semaphore docs and add unit test to validate correct behavior
* add test for blocking
* Update threading.rst
* semaphore: remove documentation validation tests and move 'return value' test to BaseSemaphore
It is unfortunate that the '_' names were not kept as aliases, and that RLock
was not also converted to a class, but it is now too late to change either of
those things for 3.3.
