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).
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.
Make _struct.Struct a GC type
This fixes a memory leak in the _struct module, where as soon
as a Struct object is stored in the cache, there's a cycle from
the _struct module to the cache to Struct objects to the Struct
type back to the module. If _struct.Struct is not gc-tracked, that
cycle is never collected.
This PR makes _struct.Struct GC-tracked, and adds a regression test.
Replace "(PyCFunction)(void(*)(void))func" cast with
_PyCFunction_CAST(func).
Change generated by the command:
sed -i -e \
's!(PyCFunction)(void(\*)(void)) *\([A-Za-z0-9_]\+\)!_PyCFunction_CAST(\1)!g' \
$(find -name "*.c")
Add new functions to pack and unpack C double (serialize and
deserialize):
* PyFloat_Pack2(), PyFloat_Pack4(), PyFloat_Pack8()
* PyFloat_Unpack2(), PyFloat_Unpack4(), PyFloat_Unpack8()
Document these functions and add unit tests.
Rename private functions and move them from the internal C API
to the public C API:
* _PyFloat_Pack2() => PyFloat_Pack2()
* _PyFloat_Pack4() => PyFloat_Pack4()
* _PyFloat_Pack8() => PyFloat_Pack8()
* _PyFloat_Unpack2() => PyFloat_Unpack2()
* _PyFloat_Unpack4() => PyFloat_Unpack4()
* _PyFloat_Unpack8() => PyFloat_Unpack8()
Replace the "unsigned char*" type with "char*" which is more common
and easy to use.
setup.py no longer defines Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE. Instead every
module defines the macro before #include "Python.h" unless
Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN is already defined.
Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN is defined for every module that is built by
Modules/Setup.
The PR also simplifies Modules/Setup. Makefile and makesetup
already define Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN and include Modules/internal
for us.

Add pycore_moduleobject.h internal header file with static inline
functions to access module members:
* _PyModule_GetDict()
* _PyModule_GetDef()
* _PyModule_GetState()
These functions don't check at runtime if their argument has a valid
type and can be inlined even if Python is not built with LTO.
_PyType_GetModuleByDef() uses _PyModule_GetDef().
Replace PyModule_GetState() with _PyModule_GetState() in the
extension modules, considered as performance sensitive:
* _abc
* _functools
* _operator
* _pickle
* _queue
* _random
* _sre
* _struct
* _thread
* _winapi
* array
* posix
The following extensions are now built with the Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE
macro defined, to be able to use the internal pycore_moduleobject.h
header: _abc, array, _operator, _queue, _sre, _struct.
No longer use deprecated aliases to functions:
* Replace PyMem_MALLOC() with PyMem_Malloc()
* Replace PyMem_REALLOC() with PyMem_Realloc()
* Replace PyMem_FREE() with PyMem_Free()
* Replace PyMem_Del() with PyMem_Free()
* Replace PyMem_DEL() with PyMem_Free()
Modify also the PyMem_DEL() macro to use directly PyMem_Free().
Previously, the result could have been an instance of a subclass of int.
Also revert bpo-26202 and make attributes start, stop and step of the range
object having exact type int.
Add private function _PyNumber_Index() which preserves the old behavior
of PyNumber_Index() for performance to use it in the conversion functions
like PyLong_AsLong().

* PEP-384 _struct
* More PEP-384 fixes for _struct
Summary: Add a couple of more fixes for `_struct` that were previously missed such as removing `tp_*` accessors and using `PyBytesWriter` instead of calling `PyBytes_FromStringAndSize` with `NULL`. Also added a test to confirm that `iter_unpack` type is still uninstantiable.

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.
