FileIO.seek() and FileIO.tell() method now set the internal seekable
attribute to avoid one syscall on open() (in buffered or text mode).
The seekable property is now also more reliable since its value is
set correctly on memory allocation failure.
AsyncoreEchoServer of test_ssl now calls
asyncore.close_all(ignore_all=True) to ensure that
asyncore.socket_map is cleared once the test completes, even if
ConnectionHandler was not correctly unregistered.
Fix the following warning:
Warning -- asyncore.socket_map was modified by test_ssl
Before: {}
After: {6: <test.test_ssl.AsyncoreEchoServer.EchoServer.ConnectionHandler>}
BuildExtTestCase of test_distutils now uses support.temp_cwd() in
setUp() to remove files created in the current working in all
BuildExtTestCase unit tests, not only test_build_ext().
Move also tearDown() just after setUp().
* #30190 / unittest / assertAlmostEqual(delta=...) / error msg: show the difference between the 2 numbers in case of failure
* safe_repr() diff
* also show difference when passing 'places' argument
* refactoring
* update Misc/NEWS
* bpo-30197: Enhance functions swap_attr() and swap_item() in test.support.
They now work when delete replaced attribute or item inside the with
statement. The old value of the attribute or item (or None if it doesn't
exist) now will be assigned to the target of the "as" clause, if there is
one.
* Update docstrings.
* bpo-30175: Skip client cert tests of test_imaplib
The IMAP server cyrus.andrew.cmu.edu doesn't accept our randomly
generated client x509 certificate anymore.
* bpo-30188: Catch EOFError in NetworkedNNTPTests
test_nntplib fails randomly with EOFError in
NetworkedNNTPTests.setUpClass(). Catch EOFError to skip tests in that
case.
QueueListenerTest of test_logging now closes the multiprocessing
Queue and joins its thread to prevent leaking dangling threads to
following tests.
Add also @support.reap_threads to detect earlier if a test leaks
threads (and try to "cleanup" these threads).
bpo-28769 changed PyUnicode_AsUTF8() return type from const char* to
char* in Python 3.7, but tm_zone field type of the tm structure is
char* on FreeBSD.
Cast PyUnicode_AsUTF8() to char* in gettmarg() to fix the warning:
Modules/timemodule.c:443:20: warning: assigning to 'char *'
from 'const char *' discards qualifiers
* Fix PEP 8 (SomeType instead of some_type)
* Add a function parameter annotation
* Explain, using wording from PEP 484 and PEP 526,
why one annotation is in quotes and another is not.

Builtin container types have two potential link targets in the docs:
- their entry in the list of builtin callables
- their type documentation
This change brings `bytes` and `bytearray` into line with other
container types by having cross-references default to linking to
their type documentation, rather than their builtin callable entry.
On macOS, SuppressCrashReport now redirects /usr/bin/defaults command
stderr into a pipe to not pollute stderr. It fixes a
test_io.test_daemon_threads_shutdown_stderr_deadlock() failure when
the CrashReporter domain doesn't exists. Message logged into stderr:
2017-04-24 16:57:21.432 defaults[41046:2462851]
The domain/default pair of (com.apple.CrashReporter, DialogType) does not exist
timegm() return type is time_t, not int. Use time_t to prevent the
following compiler warning on Windows:
timemodule.c: warning C4244: '=': conversion from 'time_t' to 'int',
possible loss of data
At the time when an abstract base class' __init_subclass__ runs,
ABCMeta.__new__ has not yet finished running, so in the presence of
__init_subclass__, inspect.isabstract() can no longer depend only on
TPFLAGS_IS_ABSTRACT.
Disable faulthandler to run test_SEH() of test_ctypes to prevent the
following log with a traceback:
Windows fatal exception: access violation
Add support.disable_faulthandler() context manager.
* bpo-30125: Cleanup faulthandler.c
* Use size_t type for iterators
* Add { ... }
* bpo-30125: Fix faulthandler.disable() on Windows
On Windows, faulthandler.disable() now removes the exception handler
installed by faulthandler.enable().
test_io has two unit tests which trigger a deadlock:
* test_daemon_threads_shutdown_stdout_deadlock()
* test_daemon_threads_shutdown_stderr_deadlock()
These tests call Py_FatalError() if the expected bug is triggered
which calls abort(). Use test.support.SuppressCrashReport to prevent
the creation on a core dump, to fix the warning:
Warning -- files was modified by test_io
Before: []
After: ['python.core']
test_quick_connect() runs a thread up to 50 seconds, whereas the
socket is connected in 0.2 second and then the thread is expected to
end in less than 3 second. On Linux, the thread ends quickly because
select() seems to always return quickly. On FreeBSD, sometimes
select() fails with timeout and so the thread runs much longer than
expected.
Fix the thread timeout to fix a race condition in the test.
Detect when the "cc" compiler (and the $CC variable) is the Clang
compiler. The test is needed to add the -fno-strict-aliasing option
on FreeBSD where cc is clang.
Python/dtoa.c is not compiled correctly with clang 4.0 and
optimization level -O2 or higher, because of an aliasing issue on
the double/ULong[2] union.
