Copying and pickling instances of subclasses of builtin types
bytearray, set, frozenset, collections.OrderedDict, collections.deque,
weakref.WeakSet, and datetime.tzinfo now copies and pickles instance attributes
implemented as slots.
Add macros to cast objects to PyASCIIObject*, PyCompactUnicodeObject*
and PyUnicodeObject*: _PyASCIIObject_CAST(),
_PyCompactUnicodeObject_CAST() and _PyUnicodeObject_CAST(). Using
these new macros make the code more readable and check their argument
with: assert(PyUnicode_Check(op)).
Remove redundant assert(PyUnicode_Check(op)) in macros using directly
or indirectly these new CAST macros.
Replacing existing casts with these macros.
We're no longer using _Py_IDENTIFIER() (or _Py_static_string()) in any core CPython code. It is still used in a number of non-builtin stdlib modules.
The replacement is: PyUnicodeObject (not pointer) fields under _PyRuntimeState, statically initialized as part of _PyRuntime. A new _Py_GET_GLOBAL_IDENTIFIER() macro facilitates lookup of the fields (along with _Py_GET_GLOBAL_STRING() for non-identifier strings).
https://bugs.python.org/issue46541#msg411799 explains the rationale for this change.
The core of the change is in:
* (new) Include/internal/pycore_global_strings.h - the declarations for the global strings, along with the macros
* Include/internal/pycore_runtime_init.h - added the static initializers for the global strings
* Include/internal/pycore_global_objects.h - where the struct in pycore_global_strings.h is hooked into _PyRuntimeState
* Tools/scripts/generate_global_objects.py - added generation of the global string declarations and static initializers
I've also added a --check flag to generate_global_objects.py (along with make check-global-objects) to check for unused global strings. That check is added to the PR CI config.
The remainder of this change updates the core code to use _Py_GET_GLOBAL_IDENTIFIER() instead of _Py_IDENTIFIER() and the related _Py*Id functions (likewise for _Py_GET_GLOBAL_STRING() instead of _Py_static_string()). This includes adding a few functions where there wasn't already an alternative to _Py*Id(), replacing the _Py_Identifier * parameter with PyObject *.
The following are not changed (yet):
* stop using _Py_IDENTIFIER() in the stdlib modules
* (maybe) get rid of _Py_IDENTIFIER(), etc. entirely -- this may not be doable as at least one package on PyPI using this (private) API
* (maybe) intern the strings during runtime init
https://bugs.python.org/issue46541
* Move _PyObject_CallNoArgs() to pycore_call.h (internal C API).
* _ssl, _sqlite and _testcapi extensions now call the public
PyObject_CallNoArgs() function, rather than _PyObject_CallNoArgs().
* _lsprof extension is now built with Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro
defined to get access to internal _PyObject_CallNoArgs().
Fix typo in the private _PyObject_CallNoArg() function name: rename
it to _PyObject_CallNoArgs() to be consistent with the public
function PyObject_CallNoArgs().
* Add Py_TPFLAGS_SEQUENCE and Py_TPFLAGS_MAPPING, add to all relevant standard builtin classes.
* Set relevant flags on collections.abc.Sequence and Mapping.
* Use flags in MATCH_SEQUENCE and MATCH_MAPPING opcodes.
* Inherit Py_TPFLAGS_SEQUENCE and Py_TPFLAGS_MAPPING.
* Add NEWS
* Remove interpreter-state map_abc and seq_abc fields.
This reverts commit 32f2eda859.
It can be re-applied if the subinterpreter PEP is approved.
Otherwise, the commit degraded performance with no offsetting
benefit.
Use _PyLong_GetZero() and _PyLong_GetOne() in Modules/ directory.
_cursesmodule.c and zoneinfo.c are now built with
Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro defined.
This implements things like `list[int]`,
which returns an object of type `types.GenericAlias`.
This object mostly acts as a proxy for `list`,
but has attributes `__origin__` and `__args__`
that allow recovering the parts (with values `list` and `(int,)`.
There is also an approximate notion of type variables;
e.g. `list[T]` has a `__parameters__` attribute equal to `(T,)`.
Type variables are objects of type `typing.TypeVar`.
The bulk of this patch was generated automatically with:

done
old=_PyObject_FastCallDict
new=PyObject_VectorcallDict
git grep -lwz $old | xargs -0 sed -i "s/\b$old\b/$new/g"
and then cleaned up:
- Revert changes to in docs & news
- Revert changes to backcompat defines in headers
- Nudge misaligned comments
Cast function pointers to (void(*)(void)) before casting to (PyCFunction)
to make "warning: cast between incompatible function types" false alarm quiet.
* bpo-32492: 2.5x speed up in namedtuple attribute access using C fast path
* Add News entry
* fixup! bpo-32492: 2.5x speed up in namedtuple attribute access using C fast path
* Check for tuple in the __get__ of the new descriptor and don't cache the descriptor itself
* Don't inherit from property. Implement GC methods to handle __doc__
* Add a test for the docstring substitution in descriptors
* Update NEWS entry to reflect time against 3.7 branch
* Simplify implementation with argument clinic, better error messages, only __new__
* Use positional-only parameters for the __new__
* Use PyTuple_GET_SIZE and PyTuple_GET_ITEM to tighter the implementation of tuplegetterdescr_get
* Implement __set__ to make tuplegetter a data descriptor
* Use Py_INCREF now that we inline PyTuple_GetItem
* Apply the valid_index() function, saving one test
* Move Py_None test out of the critical path.
Fix invalid function cast warnings with gcc 8
for method conventions different from METH_NOARGS, METH_O and
METH_VARARGS excluding Argument Clinic generated code.
METH_NOARGS functions need only a single argument but they are cast
into a PyCFunction, which takes two arguments. This triggers an
invalid function cast warning in gcc8 due to the argument mismatch.
Fix this by adding a dummy unused argument.
