The objective of this change is to help make the GILState-related code easier to understand. This mostly involves moving code around and some semantically equivalent refactors. However, there are a also a small number of slight changes in structure and behavior:
* tstate_current is moved out of _PyRuntimeState.gilstate
* autoTSSkey is moved out of _PyRuntimeState.gilstate
* autoTSSkey is initialized earlier
* autoTSSkey is re-initialized (after fork) earlier

Have _posixsubprocess.c stop using boolean flags to say if gid and uid values were supplied and action is required. Such an implicit "either initialized or look somewhere else" confused both the reader (another mental connection to constantly track between functions) and a compiler (warnings on potentially uninitialized variables being passed). Instead, we can utilize a special group/user id as a flag value -1 defined by POSIX but used nowhere else. Namely:
gid: call_setgid = False → gid = -1
uid: call_setuid = False → uid = -1
groups: call_setgroups = False → groups = NULL (obtained with (groups_list != Py_None) ? groups : NULL)
This PR is required for #94519.
This PR removes the `volatile` qualifier on various intermediate quantities
in the `math.fsum` implementation, and updates the notes preceding the
algorithm accordingly (as well as fixing some of the exsting notes). See
the linked issue #100833 for discussion.
Not comprehensive, best effort warning. There are cases when threads exist on some platforms that this code cannot detect. macOS when API permissions allow and Linux with a readable /proc procfs present are the currently supported cases where a warning should show up reliably.
Starting with a DeprecationWarning for now, it is less disruptive than something like RuntimeWarning and most likely to only be seen in people's CI tests - a good place to start with this messaging.
The itemsize returned in a memoryview of a ctypes array is now computed from the item type, instead of dividing the total size by the length and assuming that the length is not zero.

A few TCP socket options have been added to the Linux kernel these last
few years.
This commit adds all the ones available in Linux 6.0:

While at it, the TCP_FASTOPEN option has been moved lower in the list
just to keep the same order as in tcp.h to ease future synchronisations.

The Py_CLEAR(), Py_SETREF() and Py_XSETREF() macros now only evaluate
their arguments once. If an argument has side effects, these side
effects are no longer duplicated.
Use temporary variables to avoid duplicating side effects of macro
arguments. If available, use _Py_TYPEOF() to avoid type punning.
Otherwise, use memcpy() for the assignment to prevent a
miscompilation with strict aliasing caused by type punning.
Add _Py_TYPEOF() macro: __typeof__() on GCC and clang.
Add test_py_clear() and test_py_setref() unit tests to _testcapi.
asyncio.get_event_loop() now always return either running event loop or
the result of get_event_loop_policy().get_event_loop() call. The latter
should now raise an RuntimeError if no current event loop was set
instead of creating and setting a new event loop.
It affects also a number of asyncio functions and constructors which
call get_event_loop() implicitly: ensure_future(), shield(), gather(),
etc.
DeprecationWarning is no longer emitted if there is no running event loop but
the current event loop was set.

The implementation of __sizeof__() methods using _PyObject_SIZE() now
use an unsigned type (size_t) to compute the size, rather than a signed
type (Py_ssize_t).
Cast explicitly signed (Py_ssize_t) values to unsigned type
(Py_ssize_t).
* code_sizeof() now uses an unsigned type (size_t) to compute the result.
* Fix _PyObject_ComputedDictPointer(): cast _PyObject_VAR_SIZE() to
Py_ssize_t, rather than long: it's a different type on 64-bit Windows.
* Clarify that _PyObject_VAR_SIZE() uses an unsigned type (size_t).
* Replace Py_INCREF() and Py_XINCREF() using a cast with Py_NewRef()
and Py_XNewRef() in Modules/_elementtree.c.
* Make reference counting more explicit: don't steal implicitly a
reference on PyList_SET_ITEM(), use Py_NewRef() instead.
* Replace PyModule_AddObject() with PyModule_AddObjectRef().
Replace "Py_XDECREF(var); var = NULL;" with "Py_CLEAR(var);".
Don't replace "Py_DECREF(var); var = NULL;" with "Py_CLEAR(var);". It
would add an useless "if (var)" test in code path where var cannot be
NULL.
Fix potential race condition in code patterns:
* Replace "Py_DECREF(var); var = new;" with "Py_SETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "Py_XDECREF(var); var = new;" with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "Py_CLEAR(var); var = new;" with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
Other changes:
* Replace "old = var; var = new; Py_DECREF(var)"
with "Py_SETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "old = var; var = new; Py_XDECREF(var)"
with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
* And remove the "old" variable.
The ``structmember.h`` header is deprecated, though it continues to be available
and there are no plans to remove it. There are no deprecation warnings. Old code
can stay unchanged (unless the extra include and non-namespaced macros bother
you greatly). Specifically, no uses in CPython are updated -- that would just be
unnecessary churn.
The ``structmember.h`` header is deprecated, though it continues to be
available and there are no plans to remove it.
Its contents are now available just by including ``Python.h``,
with a ``Py`` prefix added if it was missing:
- `PyMemberDef`, `PyMember_GetOne` and`PyMember_SetOne`
- Type macros like `Py_T_INT`, `Py_T_DOUBLE`, etc.
(previously ``T_INT``, ``T_DOUBLE``, etc.)
- The flags `Py_READONLY` (previously ``READONLY``) and
`Py_AUDIT_READ` (previously all uppercase)
Several items are not exposed from ``Python.h``:
- `T_OBJECT` (use `Py_T_OBJECT_EX`)
- `T_NONE` (previously undocumented, and pretty quirky)
- The macro ``WRITE_RESTRICTED`` which does nothing.
- The macros ``RESTRICTED`` and ``READ_RESTRICTED``, equivalents of
`Py_AUDIT_READ`.
- In some configurations, ``<stddef.h>`` is not included from ``Python.h``.
It should be included manually when using ``offsetof()``.
The deprecated header continues to provide its original
contents under the original names.
Your old code can stay unchanged, unless the extra include and non-namespaced
macros bother you greatly.
There is discussion on the issue to rename `T_PYSSIZET` to `PY_T_SSIZE` or
similar. I chose not to do that -- users will probably copy/paste that with any
spelling, and not renaming it makes migration docs simpler.

Fix a number of compile errors with GCC-12 on macOS:
1. In pylifecycle.c the compile rejects _Pragma within a declaration
2. posixmodule.c was missing a number of ..._RUNTIME macros for non-clang on macOS
3. _ctypes assumed that __builtin_available is always present on macOS
Before python3.11, when in a venv the zip path is calculated
from prefix on POSIX platforms. In python3.11 the behavior is
accidentally changed to calculating from default prefix. This
change will break venv created from a non-installed python
with a stdlib zip file. This commit restores the behavior back
to before python3.11.
Improves the docstring on signal.strsignal to make it explain when it returns a message, None, or when it raises ValueError.

Add test_py_clear() and test_py_setref() unit tests to _testcapi.
We do the following:
* move the generated _PyUnicode_InitStaticStrings() to its own file

Now that our int<->str conversions are size limited and we have the
_pylong module handling larger integers, we don't need to limit
everything just to avoid wasting time in the quadratic time DoS-like
case while fuzzing.
We can tweak these further after seeing how this goes.
In very rare circumstances the JUMP opcode could be confused with the
argument of the opcode in the "then" part which doesn't end with the
JUMP opcode. This led to incorrect detection of the final JUMP opcode
and incorrect calculation of the size of the subexpression.
NOTE: Changed return value of functions _validate_inner() and
_validate_charset() in Modules/_sre/sre.c. Now they return 0 on success,
-1 on failure, and 1 if the last op is JUMP (which usually is a failure).
Previously they returned 1 on success and 0 on failure.
Previously, the optional restrictions on subinterpreters were: disallow fork, subprocess, and threads. By default, we were disallowing all three for "isolated" interpreters. We always allowed all three for the main interpreter and those created through the legacy `Py_NewInterpreter()` API.
Those settings were a bit conservative, so here we've adjusted the optional restrictions to: fork, exec, threads, and daemon threads. The default for "isolated" interpreters disables fork, exec, and daemon threads. Regular threads are allowed by default. We continue always allowing everything For the main interpreter and the legacy API.
In the code, we add `_PyInterpreterConfig.allow_exec` and `_PyInterpreterConfig.allow_daemon_threads`. We also add `Py_RTFLAGS_DAEMON_THREADS` and `Py_RTFLAGS_EXEC`.
(see https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/98608)
This change does the following:
1. change the argument to a new `_PyInterpreterConfig` struct
2. rename the function to `_Py_NewInterpreterFromConfig()`, inspired by `Py_InitializeFromConfig()` (takes a `_PyInterpreterConfig` instead of `isolated_subinterpreter`)
3. split up the boolean `isolated_subinterpreter` into the corresponding multiple granular settings
* allow_fork
* allow_subprocess
* allow_threads
4. add `PyInterpreterState.feature_flags` to store those settings
5. add a function for checking if a feature is enabled on an opaque `PyInterpreterState *`
6. drop `PyConfig._isolated_interpreter`
The existing default (see `Py_NewInterpeter()` and `Py_Initialize*()`) allows fork, subprocess, and threads and the optional "isolated" interpreter (see the `_xxsubinterpreters` module) disables all three. None of that changes here; the defaults are preserved.
Note that the given `_PyInterpreterConfig` will not be used outside `_Py_NewInterpreterFromConfig()`, nor preserved. This contrasts with how `PyConfig` is currently preserved, used, and even modified outside `Py_InitializeFromConfig()`. I'd rather just avoid that mess from the start for `_PyInterpreterConfig`. We can preserve it later if we find an actual need.
This change allows us to follow up with a number of improvements (e.g. stop disallowing subprocess and support disallowing exec instead).
(Note that this PR adds "private" symbols. We'll probably make them public, and add docs, in a separate change.)
Functions re.sub() and re.subn() and corresponding re.Pattern methods
are now 2-3 times faster for replacement strings containing group references.

The os module and the PyUnicode_FSDecoder() function no longer accept
bytes-like paths, like bytearray and memoryview types: only the exact
bytes type is accepted for bytes strings.
Change summary:
+ There is now a `gzip.READ_BUFFER_SIZE` constant that is 128KB. Other programs that read in 128KB chunks: pigz and cat. So this seems best practice among good programs. Also it is faster than 8 kb chunks.
+ a zlib._ZlibDecompressor was added. This is the _bz2.BZ2Decompressor ported to zlib. Since the zlib.Decompress object is better for in-memory decompression, the _ZlibDecompressor is hidden. It only makes sense in file decompression, and that is already implemented now in the gzip library. No need to bother the users with this.
+ The ZlibDecompressor uses the older Cpython arrange_output_buffer functions, as those are faster and more appropriate for the use case.
+ GzipFile.read has been optimized. There is no longer a `unconsumed_tail` member to write back to padded file. This is instead handled by the ZlibDecompressor itself, which has an internal buffer. `_add_read_data` has been inlined, as it was just two calls.
EDIT: While I am adding improvements anyway, I figured I could add another one-liner optimization now to the python -m gzip application. That read chunks in io.DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE previously, but has been updated now to use READ_BUFFER_SIZE chunks.
On macOS, fix a crash in syslog.syslog() in multi-threaded
applications. On macOS, the libc syslog() function is not
thread-safe, so syslog.syslog() no longer releases the GIL to call
it.
Signal wakeup fd errors are now logged with
_PyErr_WriteUnraisableMsg(), rather than PySys_WriteStderr() and
PyErr_WriteUnraisable(), to pass the error message to
sys.unraisablehook. By default, it's still written into stderr (unless
sys.unraisablehook is overriden).
This seems pretty straightforward. The issue mentions other calls in mmapmodule that we could release the GIL on, but those are in methods where we'd need to be careful to ensure that something sensible happens if those are called concurrently. In prior art, note that #12073 released the GIL for munmap. In a toy benchmark, I see the speedup you'd expect from doing this.

These were intentionally skipped when operator was updated to use the argument clinic:
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/64385#issuecomment-1093641466
However, by not using the argument clinic, they missed out on getting signatures.
This is a narrow PR to update the docstrings so that `__text_signature__` can be
extracted from them. Updating to use the argument clinic is beyond scope.
`methodcaller` uses `*args, **kwargs` to match variadic names used elsewhere,
including in `operator.call`.
The macOS 13 SDK includes support for the `mkfifoat` and `mknodat` system calls.
Using the `dir_fd` option with either `os.mkfifo` or `os.mknod` could result in a
segfault if cpython is built with the macOS 13 SDK but run on an earlier
version of macOS. Prevent this by adding runtime support for detection of
these system calls ("weaklinking") as is done for other newer syscalls on
macOS.
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.
