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.
* Moves the bytecode to the end of the corresponding PyCodeObject, and quickens it in-place.
* Removes the almost-always-unused co_varnames, co_freevars, and co_cellvars member caches
* _PyOpcode_Deopt is a new mapping from all opcodes to their un-quickened forms.
* _PyOpcode_InlineCacheEntries is renamed to _PyOpcode_Caches
* _Py_IncrementCountAndMaybeQuicken is renamed to _PyCode_Warmup
* _Py_Quicken is renamed to _PyCode_Quicken
* _co_quickened is renamed to _co_code_adaptive (and is now a read-only memoryview).
* Do not emit unused nonzero opargs anymore in the compiler.
Instead of manually enumerating the global strings in generate_global_objects.py, we extrapolate the list from usage of _Py_ID() and _Py_STR() in the source files.
This is partly inspired by gh-31261.

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

Remove the PyHeapType_GET_MEMBERS() macro. It was exposed in the
public C API by mistake, it must only be used by Python internally.
Use the PyTypeObject.tp_members member instead.
Rename PyHeapType_GET_MEMBERS() to _PyHeapType_GET_MEMBERS() and move
it to the internal C API.
Convert the PyType_SUPPORTS_WEAKREFS() macro to a regular function.
It no longer access the PyTypeObject.tp_weaklistoffset member
directly.
Add _PyType_SUPPORTS_WEAKREFS() static inline functions, used
internally by Python for best performance.
Add _PyUnicode_FiniTypes() function, called by
finalize_interp_types(). It clears these static types:
* EncodingMapType
* PyFieldNameIter_Type
* PyFormatterIter_Type
_PyStaticType_Dealloc() now does nothing if tp_subclasses
is not NULL.
* Add comment to recurse_down_subclasses() explaining why it's safe
to use a borrowed reference to tp_subclasses.
* remove_all_subclasses() no longer accept NULL cases
* type_set_bases() now relies on the fact that new_bases is not NULL.
* type_dealloc_common() avoids PyErr_Fetch/PyErr_Restore if tp_bases
is NULL.
* remove_all_subclasses() makes sure that no exception is raised.
* Don't test at runtime if tp_mro only contains types: rely on
_PyType_CAST() assertion for that.
* _PyStaticType_Dealloc() no longer clears tp_subclasses which is
already NULL.
* mro_hierarchy() avoids calling _PyType_GetSubclasses() if
tp_subclasses is NULL.
Coding style:
* Use Py_NewRef().
* Add braces and move variable declarations to the first variable
assignement.
* Rename a few variables and parameters to use better names.
The remove_subclass() function now deletes the dictionary when
removing the last subclass (if the dictionary becomes empty) to save
memory: set PyTypeObject.tp_subclasses to NULL. remove_subclass() is
called when a type is deallocated.
_PyType_GetSubclasses() no longer holds a reference to tp_subclasses:
its loop cannot modify tp_subclasses.
Fix a race condition on setting a type __bases__ attribute: the
internal function add_subclass() now gets the
PyTypeObject.tp_subclasses member after calling PyWeakref_NewRef()
which can trigger a garbage collection which can indirectly modify
PyTypeObject.tp_subclasses.
Add a new _PyType_GetSubclasses() function to get type's subclasses.
_PyType_GetSubclasses(type) returns a list which holds strong
refererences to subclasses. It is safer than iterating on
type->tp_subclasses which yields weak references and can be modified
in the loop.
_PyType_GetSubclasses(type) now holds a reference to the tp_subclasses
dict while creating the list of subclasses.
set_collection_flag_recursive() of _abc.c now uses
_PyType_GetSubclasses().
Add _PyTypes_FiniTypes() best-effort function to clear static types:
don't deallocate a type if it still has subclasses.
remove_subclass() now sets tp_subclasses to NULL when removing the
last subclass.
Add _PyStructSequence_FiniType() and _PyStaticType_Dealloc()
functions to finalize a structseq static type in Py_Finalize().
Currrently, these functions do nothing if Python is built in release
mode.
Clear static types:
* AsyncGenHooksType: sys.set_asyncgen_hooks()
* FlagsType: sys.flags
* FloatInfoType: sys.float_info
* Hash_InfoType: sys.hash_info
* Int_InfoType: sys.int_info
* ThreadInfoType: sys.thread_info
* UnraisableHookArgsType: sys.unraisablehook
* VersionInfoType: sys.version
* WindowsVersionType: sys.getwindowsversion()
This reverts commit ea251806b8.
Keep "assert(interned == NULL);" in _PyUnicode_Fini(), but only for
the main interpreter.
Keep _PyUnicode_ClearInterned() changes avoiding the creation of a
temporary Python list object.
This change is strictly renames and moving code around. It helps in the following ways:
* ensures type-related init functions focus strictly on one of the three aspects (state, objects, types)
* passes in PyInterpreterState * to all those functions, simplifying work on moving types/objects/state to the interpreter
* consistent naming conventions help make what's going on more clear
* keeping API related to a type in the corresponding header file makes it more obvious where to look for it
https://bugs.python.org/issue46008
* Make internal APIs that take PyFrameConstructor take a PyFunctionObject instead.
* Add reference to function to frame, borrow references to builtins and globals.
* Add COPY_FREE_VARS instruction to allow specialization of calls to inner functions.
* Never change types' cached keys. It could invalidate inline attribute objects.
* Lazily create object dictionaries.
* Update specialization of LOAD/STORE_ATTR.
* Don't update shared keys version for deletion of value.
* Update gdb support to handle instance values.
* Rename SPLIT_KEYS opcodes to INSTANCE_VALUE.
Redefining the PyThreadState_GET() macro in pycore_pystate.h is
useless since it doesn't affect files not including it. Either use
_PyThreadState_GET() directly, or don't use pycore_pystate.h internal
C API. For example, the _testcapi extension don't use the internal C
API, but use the public PyThreadState_Get() function instead.
Replace PyThreadState_Get() with _PyThreadState_GET(). The
_PyThreadState_GET() macro is more efficient than PyThreadState_Get()
and PyThreadState_GET() function calls which call fail with a fatal
Python error.
posixmodule.c and _ctypes extension now include <windows.h> before
pycore header files (like pycore_call.h).
_PyTraceback_Add() now uses _PyErr_Fetch()/_PyErr_Restore() instead
of PyErr_Fetch()/PyErr_Restore().
The _decimal and _xxsubinterpreters extensions are now built with the
Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro defined to get access to the internal C
API.
* 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().
Places the locals between the specials and stack. This is the more "natural" layout for a C struct, makes the code simpler and gives a slight speedup (~1%)
* Convert "specials" array to InterpreterFrame struct, adding f_lasti, f_state and other non-debug FrameObject fields to it.
* Refactor, calls pushing the call to the interpreter upward toward _PyEval_Vector.
* Compute f_back when on thread stack, only filling in value when frame object outlives stack invocation.
* Move ownership of InterpreterFrame in generator from frame object to generator object.
* Do not create frame objects for Python calls.
* Do not create frame objects for generators.
* Remove code that checks Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_VERSION_TAG
The field is always present in the type struct, as explained
in the added comment.
* Remove Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_AM_SEND
The flag is not needed, and since it was added in 3.10 it can be removed now.
The non-GC-type branch of subtype_dealloc is using the type of an object after freeing in the same unsafe way as GH-26274 fixes. (I believe the old news entry covers this change well enough.)

Heap types with the Py_TPFLAGS_IMMUTABLETYPE flag can now inherit the
PEP 590 vectorcall protocol. Previously, this was only possible for static types.
