I tested this with valgrind on amd64.
The man pages I found for diff architectures are inconsistent on this.
I'm not entirely sure this change is correct for all architectures either.
Perhaps we should just over-allocate and not worry about it?
the StgDictObject's ffi_type member had the same name as its type. I
changed that to ffi_type_pointer. Feel free to change it to something else
more meaningful, just not ffi_type.
not be tracked by GC. This fixes 254 of test_generators' refleaks on my
machine, but I'm sure something else will make them come back :>
Not adding a separate test for this kind of cycle, since the existing
fib/m235 already test them in more extensive ways than any 'minimal' test
has been able to manage.
using a custom, nearly-identical macro. This probably changes how some of
these functions are compiled, which may result in fractionally slower (or
faster) execution. Considering the nature of traversal, visiting much of the
address space in unpredictable patterns, I'd argue the code readability and
maintainability is well worth it ;P
PySequence_GetItem of the time.strptime() result. Not a high probability
bug, but not inconceivable either, considering people can provide their own
'time' module.
that are suspended outside of any try/except/finally blocks to be
garbage collected even if they are part of a cycle. Generators that
suspend inside of an active try/except or try/finally block (including
those created by a ``with`` statement) are still not GC-able if they
are part of a cycle, however.
If RTLD_LOCAL is not #defined in any header file (Windows), set it to 0.
If RTLD_GLOBAL is not #defined, set it equal to RTLD_LOCAL.
This should fix ctypes on cygwin.
of SQLite3 from 3.2.2 to 3.0.8, by providing an alternative to
sqlite3_transfer_bindings. setup.py also handles the common (in debian
and ubuntu, at least) case of a buggy sqlite3.h SQLITE_VERSION_NUMBER.
This is based on pysqlite2.1.3, and provides a DB-API interface in
the standard library. You'll need sqlite 3.2.2 or later to build
this - if you have an earlier version, the C extension module will
not be built.
glibc, for example, does this already on its own, but it seems that
the solaris libc doesn't. This leads to Python code being able to over-
write file contents even though having specified "a" mode.
objimpl.h, pymem.h: Stop mapping PyMem_{Del, DEL} and PyMem_{Free, FREE}
to PyObject_{Free, FREE} in a release build. They're aliases for the
system free() now.
_subprocess.c/sp_handle_dealloc(): Since the memory was originally
obtained via PyObject_NEW, it must be released via PyObject_FREE (or
_DEL).
pythonrun.c, tokenizer.c, parsermodule.c: I lost count of the number of
PyObject vs PyMem mismatches in these -- it's like the specific
function called at each site was picked at random, sometimes even with
memory obtained via PyMem getting released via PyObject. Changed most
to use PyObject uniformly, since the blobs allocated are predictably
small in most cases, and obmalloc is generally faster than system
mallocs then.
If extension modules in real life prove as sloppy as Python's front
end, we'll have to revert the objimpl.h + pymem.h part of this patch.
Note that no problems will show up in a debug build (all calls still go
thru obmalloc then). Problems will show up only in a release build, most
likely segfaults.
Don't use SEH when compiling wth mingw.
Use IS_INTRESOURCE to determine function name from function ordinal.
Rewrite the code that allocates and frees callback functions, hopefully
this avoids the coverty warnings: Remove the THUNK typedef, and move the
definition of struct ffi_info into the header file.
as diagnosed by Nick Coghlan.
test_capi.py: A test module should never spawn a thread as
a side effect of being imported. Because this one did, the
segfault one of its thread tests caused didn't occur until
a few tests after test_regrtest.py thought test_capi was
finished. Repair that. Also join() the thread spawned
at the end, so that test_capi is truly finished when
regrtest reports that it's done.
_testcapimodule.c test_thread_state(): this spawns a
couple of non-threading.py threads, passing them a PyObject*
argument, but did nothing to ensure that those threads
finished before returning. As a result, the PyObject*
_could_ (although this was unlikely) get decref'ed out of
existence before the threads got around to using it.
Added explicit synchronization (via a Python mutex) so
that test_thread_state can reliably wait for its spawned
threads to finish.
This was a fair amount of rework of the patch. Refactored test_fork1 so it
could be reused by the new tests for wait3/4. Also made them into new style
unittests (derive from unittest.TestCase).
This patch adds a-LAW encoding to audioop and replaces the old
u-LAW encoding/decoding code with the current code from sox.
Possible issues: the code from sox uses int16_t.

This will hopefully get rid of some Coverity warnings, be a hint to
developers, and be marginally faster.
Some asserts were added when the type is currently known, but depends
on values from another function.

The attached patch fixes all the ctypes tests so they pass on amd64.
It also fixes several warnings. I'm not sure what else to do with the
patch. Let me know how you want to handle these in the future.
I'm not sure the patch is 100% correct. You will need to decide what
can be 64 bits and what can't. I believe
sq_{item,slice,ass_item,ass_slice} all need to use Py_ssize_t. The
types in ctypes.h may not require all the changes I made. I don't
know how you want to support older version, so I unconditionally
changed the types to Py_ssize_t.

The patch is also in the ctypes SVN repository now, after small
changes to add compatibility with older Python versions.
PyObject_Unicode(). This problem was originally reported from Coverity
and addresses mail on python-dev "checkin r43015".
This inlines the conversion of the string to unicode and cleans
up/simplifies some code at the end of the PyObject_Unicode().
We really need a complete C API test module for all public APIs
and passing good and bad parameter values.
Will backport.
Anyway, this is the changes to the with-statement
so that __exit__ must return a true value in order
for a pending exception to be ignored.
The PEP (343) is already updated.
missing PyObject_Del()'s, simplify some code by using Py_BuildValue()
instead of creating a tuple with items manually, stop clobbering builtin
exceptions in a few places, and guard against NULL-returning functions some
more.
This fixes 117 of the 780 (!?!#%@#$!!) reference leaks in test_bsddb3. I
ain't not done yet, although this review of 5kloc was just the easy part.
