I was perusing this file, and noticed that this part of the documentation is slightly out of date: the `struct` items in this TOML file currently contain `struct_abi_kind` members, which distinguish between the different types of ABI compatibility described in the comment.
I've updated the comment to reflect this.
dataclass used to get the annotations on a class object using
cls.__dict__.get('__annotations__'). Now that it always imports
inspect, it can use inspect.get_annotations, which is modern
best practice for coping with annotations.
It had to live as a global outside of PyConfig for stable ABI reasons in
the pre-3.12 backports.
This removes the `_Py_global_config_int_max_str_digits` and gets rid of
the equivalent field in the internal `struct _is PyInterpreterState` as
code can just use the existing nested config struct within that.
Adds tests to verify unique settings and configs in subinterpreters.

Fix the Python path configuration used to initialized sys.path at
Python startup. Paths are no longer encoded to UTF-8/strict to avoid
encoding errors if it contains surrogate characters (bytes paths are
decoded with the surrogateescape error handler).
getpath_basename() and getpath_dirname() functions no longer encode
the path to UTF-8/strict, but work directly on Unicode strings. These
functions now use PyUnicode_FindChar() and PyUnicode_Substring() on
the Unicode path, rather than strrchr() on the encoded bytes string.

Fix multiplying a list by an integer (list *= int): detect the

list_resize() now checks for integer overflow before multiplying the

Previously, checkbuttons in different parent widgets could have the same

Fix command line parsing: reject "-X int_max_str_digits" option with

This PR fixes undefined behaviour in the struct module unpacking support functions `bu_longlong`, `lu_longlong`, `bu_int` and `lu_int`; thanks to @kumaraditya303 for finding these.
The fix is to accumulate the bytes in an unsigned integer type instead of a signed integer type, then to convert to the appropriate signed type. In cases where the width matches, that conversion will typically be compiled away to a no-op.
(Evidence from Godbolt: https://godbolt.org/z/5zvxodj64 .)
To make the conversions efficient, I've specialised the relevant functions for their output size: for `bu_longlong` and `lu_longlong`, this only entails checking that the output size is indeed `8`. But `bu_int` and `lu_int` were used for format sizes `2` and `4` - I've split those into two separate functions each.
No tests, because all of the affected cases are already exercised by the test suite.
This is a preliminary PR to refactor `PyLong_FromString` which is currently quite messy and has spaghetti like code that mixes up different concerns as well as duplicating logic.
In particular:
- `PyLong_FromString` now only handles sign, base and prefix detection and calls a new function `long_from_string_base` to parse the main body of the string.
- The `long_from_string_base` function handles all string validation and then calls `long_from_binary_base` or a new function `long_from_non_binary_base` to construct the actual `PyLong`.
- The existing `long_from_binary_base` function is simplified by factoring duplicated logic to `long_from_string_base`.
- The new function `long_from_non_binary_base` factors out much of the code from `PyLong_FromString` including in particular the quadratic algorithm reffered to in gh-95778 so that this can be seen separately from unrelated concerns such as string validation.

The main problem was that an unluckily timed task cancellation could cause
the semaphore to be stuck. There were also doubts about strict FIFO ordering
of tasks allowed to pass.
The Semaphore implementation was rewritten to be more similar to Lock.
Many tests for edge cases (including cancellation) were added.
At Python exit, sometimes a thread holding the GIL can wait forever
for a thread (usually a daemon thread) which requested to drop the
GIL, whereas the thread already exited. To fix the race condition,
the thread which requested the GIL drop now resets its request before
exiting.
take_gil() now calls RESET_GIL_DROP_REQUEST() before
PyThread_exit_thread() if it called SET_GIL_DROP_REQUEST to fix a
race condition with drop_gil().

(#57645, #92987)
Converting a large enough `int` to a decimal string raises `ValueError` as expected. However, the raise comes _after_ the quadratic-time base-conversion algorithm has run to completion. For effective DOS prevention, we need some kind of check before entering the quadratic-time loop. Oops! =)
The quick fix: essentially we catch _most_ values that exceed the threshold up front. Those that slip through will still be on the small side (read: sufficiently fast), and will get caught by the existing check so that the limit remains exact.
The justification for the current check. The C code check is:
```c
max_str_digits / (3 * PyLong_SHIFT) <= (size_a - 11) / 10
```
In GitHub markdown math-speak, writing $M$ for `max_str_digits`, $L$ for `PyLong_SHIFT` and $s$ for `size_a`, that check is:
$$\left\lfloor\frac{M}{3L}\right\rfloor \le \left\lfloor\frac{s - 11}{10}\right\rfloor$$
From this it follows that
$$\frac{M}{3L} < \frac{s-1}{10}$$
hence that
$$\frac{L(s-1)}{M} > \frac{10}{3} > \log_2(10).$$
So
$$2^{L(s-1)} > 10^M.$$
But our input integer $a$ satisfies $|a| \ge 2^{L(s-1)}$, so $|a|$ is larger than $10^M$. This shows that we don't accidentally capture anything _below_ the intended limit in the check.

The previous wording of this entry suggests that CPython
won't work if optional compiler features are enabled.
That's not the case. The change is that we require C11 rather
than C89.
Note that PEP 7 does say "Python 3.11 and newer versions use C11
without optional features." It is correct there: that's
not a guide for users who compile Python, but for CPython devs
who must avoid the features.
datetime.isoformat generates the tzoffset with colons, but there
was no format code to make strftime output the same format.
for simplicity and consistency the %:z formatting behaves mostly
as %z, with the exception of adding colons. this includes the
dynamic behaviour of adding seconds and microseconds only when
needed (when not 0).
this fixes the still open "generate" part of this issue:

Using [bolt](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/tree/main/bolt)
provides a fairly large speedup without any code or functionality
changes. It provides roughly a 1% speedup on pyperformance, and a
4% improvement on the Pyston web macrobenchmarks.
It is gated behind an `--enable-bolt` configure arg because not all
toolchains and environments are supported. It has been tested on a
Linux x86_64 toolchain, using llvm-bolt built from the LLVM 14.0.6
sources (their binary distribution of this version did not include bolt).
Compared to [a previous attempt](https://github.com/faster-cpython/ideas/issues/224),
this commit uses bolt's preferred "instrumentation" approach, as well as adds some non-PIE
flags which enable much better optimizations from bolt.
The effects of this change are a bit more dependent on CPU microarchitecture
than other changes, since it optimizes i-cache behavior which seems
to be a bit more variable between architectures. The 1%/4% numbers
were collected on an Intel Skylake CPU, and on an AMD Zen 3 CPU I
got a slightly larger speedup (2%/4%), and on a c6i.xlarge EC2 instance
I got a slightly lower speedup (1%/3%).
The low speedup on pyperformance is not entirely unexpected, because
BOLT improves i-cache behavior, and the benchmarks in the pyperformance
suite are small and tend to fit in i-cache.
This change uses the existing pgo profiling task (`python -m test --pgo`),
though I was able to measure about a 1% macrobenchmark improvement by
using the macrobenchmarks as the training task. I personally think that
both the PGO and BOLT tasks should be updated to use macrobenchmarks,
but for the sake of splitting up the work this PR uses the existing pgo task.

When a task catches CancelledError and raises some other error,
the other error should not silently be suppressed.
Any scenario where a task crashes in cleanup upon cancellation
will now result in an ExceptionGroup wrapping the crash(es)
instead of propagating CancelledError and ignoring the side errors.
NOTE: This represents a change in behavior (hence the need to
change several tests). But it is only an edge case.

The API documentation for [findtext](https://docs.python.org/3/library/xml.etree.elementtree.html#xml.etree.ElementTree.Element.findtext) states that this function gives back an empty string on "no text content." With the previous implementation, this would give back a empty string even on text content values such as 0 or False. This patch attempts to resolve that by only giving back an empty string if the text attribute is set to `None`. Resolves#91447.

When keyword argument name is an instance of a str subclass with
overloaded methods __eq__ and __hash__, the former code could not find
the name of an extraneous keyword argument to report an error, and
_PyArg_UnpackKeywords() returned success without setting the

of expected initialized cells is determined as the total number of passed
arguments, this lead to reading NULL as a keyword parameter value, that
caused SystemError or crash or other undesired behavior.
