Remove old aliases which were kept backwards compatibility with
Python 3.8:
* _PyObject_CallMethodNoArgs()
* _PyObject_CallMethodOneArg()
* _PyObject_CallOneArg()
* _PyObject_FastCallDict()
* _PyObject_Vectorcall()
* _PyObject_VectorcallMethod()
* _PyVectorcall_Function()
Update code which used these aliases to use new names.
These functions are broken by design because they discard any exceptions raised
inside, including MemoryError and KeyboardInterrupt. They should not be
used in new code.
* PyDict_GetItem() and PyObject_HasAttr() suppress arbitrary errors and
should not be used.
* PyUnicode_CompareWithASCIIString() only works if the second argument
is ASCII string.
* Refleak in get_suggestions_for_name_error.
* Use of borrowed pointer after possible freeing (self).
* Add some missing error checks.
It now raises an exception if sys.modules doesn't hold a strong
reference to the module.
Elaborate the comment explaining why a weak reference is used to
create a borrowed reference.
* Replace PyWeakref_GET_OBJECT() with _PyWeakref_GET_REF().
* _sqlite/blob.c now holds a strong reference to the blob object
while calling close_blob().
* _xidregistry_find_type() now holds a strong reference to registered
while using it.
finalize_modules_clear_weaklist() now holds a strong reference to the
module longer than before: replace PyWeakref_GET_OBJECT() with
_PyWeakref_GET_REF().
* Add tests on PyImport_AddModuleRef(), PyImport_AddModule() and
PyImport_AddModuleObject().
* pythonrun.c: Replace Py_XNewRef(PyImport_AddModule(name)) with
PyImport_AddModuleRef(name).
Refactor PyRun_InteractiveOneObjectEx(), _PyRun_SimpleFileObject()
and PyRun_SimpleStringFlags():
* Keep a strong reference to the __main__ module while using its
dictionary (PyModule_GetDict()). Use PyImport_AddModule() with
Py_XNewRef().
* Declare variables closer to where they are defined.
* Rename variables to use name longer than 1 character.
* Add pyrun_one_parse_ast() sub-function.
* Add table describing possible executable classes for out-of-process debuggers.
* Remove shim code object creation code as it is no longer needed.
* Make lltrace a bit more robust w.r.t. non-standard frames.
This fixes a race during import. The existing _PyRuntimeState.imports.pkgcontext is shared between interpreters, and occasionally this would cause a crash when multiple interpreters were importing extensions modules at the same time. To solve this we add a thread-local variable for the value. We also leave the existing state (and infrequent race) in place for platforms that do not support thread-local variables.
For a while now, pending calls only run in the main thread (in the main interpreter). This PR changes things to allow any thread run a pending call, unless the pending call was explicitly added for the main thread to run.
The risk of a race with this state is relatively low, but we play it safe anyway. We do avoid using the lock in performance-sensitive cases where the risk of a race is very, very low.
