Also improve the documentation. Specify how dest and metavar are derived
from add_argument() positional arguments.

Previously, all nested mutually exclusive groups lost their connection
to the group containing them and were displayed as belonging directly
to the parser.

- Move some Structure tests to test_structunion; use a common base
test class + two subclasses to run them on Union too
- Remove test_union for now as it's redundant
Note: `test_simple_structs` & `test_simple_unions` are in the common
file because they share `formats`.
memcopy'ing arbitrary values to _Bool variable triggers undefined
behaviour. Avoid this.
We assume that `false` is represented by all zero bytes.

As argparse now detects by default when the code was run as a module.
This leads to using the actual executable name instead of simply "python"
to display in the usage message ("usage: python -m ...").
This allows testing Y2038 with system time set to after that,
so that actual Y2038 issues can be exposed, and not masked
by expired certificate errors.

If the PYTHON_BASIC_REPL environment variable is set, the site module
no longer imports the _pyrepl module.
Moreover, the site module now respects -E and -I command line
options: ignore PYTHON_BASIC_REPL in this case.
Spotted by @ngnpope.
`isatty` returns False to indicate the file is not a TTY. The C
implementation of _io does that (`Py_RETURN_FALSE`) but I got the
bool backwards in the _pyio implementaiton.
Run them with different locales and different date and time.
Add the @run_with_locales() decorator to run the test with multiple
locales.
Improve the run_with_locale() context manager/decorator -- it now
catches only expected exceptions and reports the test as skipped if no
appropriate locale is available.
- move the Py_Main documentation from the very high level API section
to the initialization and finalization section
- make it clear that it encapsulates a full Py_Initialize/Finalize
cycle of its own
- point out that exactly which settings will be read and applied
correctly when Py_Main is called after a separate runtime
initialization call is version dependent
- be explicit that Py_IsInitialized can be called prior to
initialization
- actually test that Py_IsInitialized can be called prior to
initialization
- flush stdout in the embedding tests that run code so it appears
in the expected order when running with "-vv"
- make "-vv" on the subinterpreter embedding tests less spammy

The function now sets temporarily the LC_CTYPE locale to the locale
of the category that determines the requested value if the locales are
different and the resulting string is non-ASCII.
This temporary change affects other threads.
Increase currently inadequate vertical spacing for the IDLE browsers (path,
module, and stack) on high-resolution monitors.

gh-120762: make_ssl_certs: Don't set extensions for the CSR
`openssl req` fails with openssl 3.2.2 because the config line
authorityKeyIdentifier = keyid:always,issuer:always
is not supported for certificate signing requests (since the issuing
certificate authority is not known).
David von Oheimb, the OpenSSL dev that made the change, commented in:
https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/22966#issuecomment-1858396738 :
> This problem did not show up in older OpenSSL versions because of a bug:
> the `req` app ignored the `-extensions` option unless `-x505` is given,
> which I fixed in https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/16865.
(I assume `-x505` is a typo for `-x509`.)
In our `make_cert_key` function:
If `sign` is true:
- We don't pass `-x509` to `req`, so in this case it should be safe to
omit the `-extensions` argument. (Old OpenSSL ignores it, new OpenSSL
fails on it.)
- The extensions are passed to the `ca` call later in the function.
There they take effect, and `authorityKeyIdentifier` is valid.
If `sign` is false, this commit has no effect except rearranging the
CLI arguments.
* Spill the evaluation around escaping calls in the generated interpreter and JIT.
* The code generator tracks live, cached values so they can be saved to memory when needed.
* Spills the stack pointer around escaping calls, so that the exact stack is visible to the cycle GC.
* gh-117151: increase default buffer size of shutil.copyfileobj() to 256k.
it was set to 16k in the 1990s.
it was raised to 64k in 2019. the discussion at the time mentioned another 5% improvement by raising to 128k and settled for a very conservative setting.
it's 2024 now, I think it should be revisited to match modern hardware. I am measuring 0-15% performance improvement when raising to 256k on various types of disk. there is no downside as far as I can tell.
this function is only intended for sequential copy of full files (or file like objects). it's the typical use case that benefits from larger operations.
for reference, I came across this function while trying to profile pip that is using it to copy files when installing python packages.
* add news

Instead of surprise crashes and memory corruption, we now hang threads that attempt to re-enter the Python interpreter after Python runtime finalization has started. These are typically daemon threads (our long standing mis-feature) but could also be threads spawned by extension modules that then try to call into Python. This marks the `PyThread_exit_thread` public C API as deprecated as there is no plausible safe way to accomplish that on any supported platform in the face of things like C++ code with finalizers anywhere on a thread's stack. Doing this was the least bad option.
