This makes the internal representation in the code generator simpler: there's a list of ops, and a list of macros, and there's no special-casing needed for ops that aren't macros. (There's now special-casing for ops that are also macros, but that's simpler.)
* Rename SAVE_IP to _SET_IP
* Rename EXIT_TRACE to _EXIT_TRACE
* Rename SAVE_CURRENT_IP to _SAVE_CURRENT_IP
* Rename INSERT to _INSERT (This is for Ken Jin's abstract interpreter)
* Rename IS_NONE to _IS_NONE
* Rename JUMP_TO_TOP to _JUMP_TO_TOP
This adds a 16-bit inline cache entry to the conditional branch instructions POP_JUMP_IF_{FALSE,TRUE,NONE,NOT_NONE} and their instrumented variants, which is used to keep track of the branch direction.
Each time we encounter these instructions we shift the cache entry left by one and set the bottom bit to whether we jumped.
Then when it's time to translate such a branch to Tier 2 uops, we use the bit count from the cache entry to decided whether to continue translating the "didn't jump" branch or the "jumped" branch.
The counter is initialized to a pattern of alternating ones and zeros to avoid bias.
The .pyc file magic number is updated. There's a new test, some fixes for existing tests, and a few miscellaneous cleanups.
Fix _thread.start_new_thread() race condition. If a thread is created
during Python finalization, the newly spawned thread now exits
immediately instead of trying to access freed memory and lead to a
crash.
thread_run() calls PyEval_AcquireThread() which checks if the thread
must exit. The problem was that tstate was dereferenced earlier in
_PyThreadState_Bind() which leads to a crash most of the time.
Move _PyThreadState_CheckConsistency() from thread_run() to
_PyThreadState_Bind().
thread_run() of _threadmodule.c now calls
_PyThreadState_CheckConsistency() to check if tstate is a dangling
pointer when Python is built in debug mode.
Rename ceval_gil.c is_tstate_valid() to
_PyThreadState_CheckConsistency() to reuse it in _threadmodule.c.
Statistics gathering is now off by default. Use the "-X pystats"
command line option or set the new PYTHONSTATS environment variable
to 1 to turn statistics gathering on at Python startup.
Statistics are no longer dumped at exit if statistics gathering was
off or statistics have been cleared.
Changes:
* Add PYTHONSTATS environment variable.
* sys._stats_dump() now returns False if statistics are not dumped
because they are all equal to zero.
* Add PyConfig._pystats member.
* Add tests on sys functions and on setting PyConfig._pystats to 1.
* Add Include/cpython/pystats.h and Include/internal/pycore_pystats.h
header files.
* Rename '_py_stats' variable to '_Py_stats'.
* Exclude Include/cpython/pystats.h from the Py_LIMITED_API.
* Move pystats.h include from object.h to Python.h.
* Add _Py_StatsOn() and _Py_StatsOff() functions. Remove
'_py_stats_struct' variable from the API: make it static in
specialize.c.
* Document API in Include/pystats.h and Include/cpython/pystats.h.
* Complete pystats documentation in Doc/using/configure.rst.
* Don't write "all zeros" stats: if _stats_off() and _stats_clear()
or _stats_dump() were called.
* _PyEval_Fini() now always call _Py_PrintSpecializationStats() which
does nothing if stats are all zeros.

Move the private _PyErr_WriteUnraisableMsg() functions to the
internal C API (pycore_pyerrors.h).
Move write_unraisable_exc() from _testcapi to _testinternalcapi.
* Move <ctype.h>, <limits.h> and <stdarg.h> standard includes to
Python.h.
* Move "pystats.h" include from object.h to Python.h.
* Remove redundant "pymem.h" include in objimpl.h and "pyport.h"
include in pymem.h; Python.h already includes them earlier.
* Remove redundant <wchar.h> include in unicodeobject.h; Python.h
already includes it.
* Move _SGI_MP_SOURCE define from Python.h to pyport.h.
* pycore_condvar.h includes explicitly <unistd.h> for the
_POSIX_THREADS macro.
pycore_create_interpreter() now returns a status, rather than
calling Py_FatalError().
* PyInterpreterState_New() now calls Py_ExitStatusException() instead
of calling Py_FatalError() directly.
* Replace Py_FatalError() with PyStatus in init_interpreter() and
_PyObject_InitState().
* _PyErr_SetFromPyStatus() now raises RuntimeError, instead of
ValueError. It can now call PyErr_NoMemory(), raise MemoryError,
if it detects _PyStatus_NO_MEMORY() error message.
Move the private _PyLong_Sign() and _PyLong_NumBits() functions
to the internal C API (pycore_long.h).
Modules/_testcapi/long.c now uses the internal C API.
This adds a new header that provides atomic operations on common data
types. The intention is that this will be exposed through Python.h,
although that is not the case yet. The only immediate use is in
the test file.

Python built with "configure --with-trace-refs" (tracing references)
is now ABI compatible with Python release build and debug build.
Moreover, it now also supports the Limited API.
Change Py_TRACE_REFS build:
* Remove _PyObject_EXTRA_INIT macro.
* The PyObject structure no longer has two extra members (_ob_prev
and _ob_next).
* Use a hash table (_Py_hashtable_t) to trace references (all
objects): PyInterpreterState.object_state.refchain.
* Py_TRACE_REFS build is now ABI compatible with release build and
debug build.
* Limited C API extensions can now be built with Py_TRACE_REFS:
xxlimited, xxlimited_35, _testclinic_limited.
* No longer rename PyModule_Create2() and PyModule_FromDefAndSpec2()
functions to PyModule_Create2TraceRefs() and
PyModule_FromDefAndSpec2TraceRefs().
* _Py_PrintReferenceAddresses() is now called before
finalize_interp_delete() which deletes the refchain hash table.
* test_tracemalloc find_trace() now also filters by size to ignore
the memory allocated by _PyRefchain_Trace().
Test changes for Py_TRACE_REFS:
* Add test.support.Py_TRACE_REFS constant.
* Add test_sys.test_getobjects() to test sys.getobjects() function.
* test_exceptions skips test_recursion_normalizing_with_no_memory()
and test_memory_error_in_PyErr_PrintEx() if Python is built with
Py_TRACE_REFS.
* test_repl skips test_no_memory().
* test_capi skisp test_set_nomemory().
Remove _PyErr_ChainExceptions(), _PyErr_ChainExceptions1() and
_PyErr_SetFromPyStatus() functions from the public C API.
* Move the private _PyErr_ChainExceptions() and
_PyErr_ChainExceptions1() function to the internal C API
(pycore_pyerrors.h).
* Move the private _PyErr_SetFromPyStatus() to the internal C API
(pycore_initconfig.h).
* No longer export the _PyErr_ChainExceptions() function.
* Move run_in_subinterp_with_config() from _testcapi to
_testinternalcapi.
There is no need to export the _Py_ForgetReference() function of the
Py_TRACE_REFS build. It's not used by shared extensions. Enhance also
its comment.
Move PyUnstable_ExecutableKinds and associated macros from the
internal C API to the public C API.
Rename constants: replace "PY_" prefix with "PyUnstable_" prefix.
Also remove NOP instructions.
The "stubs" are not optimized in this fashion (their SAVE_IP should always be preserved since it's where to jump next, and they don't contain NOPs by their nature).
Move the following private API to the internal C API (pycore_long.h):
* _PyLong_Copy()
* _PyLong_FromDigits()
* _PyLong_New()
No longer export most of these functions.
The remove private _PyGILState_GetInterpreterStateUnsafe() function
from the public C API: move it the internal C API (pycore_pystate.h).
No longer export the function.
The remove private _Py_UniversalNewlineFgetsWithSize() function from
the public C API: move it the internal C API (pycore_fileutils.h).
No longer export the function.
Remove these private functions from the public C API:
* _PyRun_AnyFileObject()
* _PyRun_InteractiveLoopObject()
* _PyRun_SimpleFileObject()
* _Py_SourceAsString()
Move them to the internal C API: add a new pycore_pythonrun.h header
file. No longer export these functions.
Remove the private _Py_Identifier type and related private functions
from the public C API:
* _PyObject_GetAttrId()
* _PyObject_LookupSpecialId()
* _PyObject_SetAttrId()
* _PyType_LookupId()
* _Py_IDENTIFIER()
* _Py_static_string()
* _Py_static_string_init()
Move them to the internal C API: add a new pycore_identifier.h header
file. No longer export these functions.
Move these private functions to the internal C API
(pycore_abstract.h):
* _Py_convert_optional_to_ssize_t()
* _PyNumber_Index()
Argument Clinic now emits #include "pycore_abstract.h" when these
functions are used.
The parser of the c-analyzer tool now uses a list of files which use
the limited C API, rather than a list of files using the internal C
API.
Move the private _PyLong converter functions to the internal C API
* _PyLong_FileDescriptor_Converter(): moved to pycore_fileutils.h
* _PyLong_Size_t_Converter(): moved to pycore_long.h
Argument Clinic now emits includes for pycore_fileutils.h and
pycore_long.h when these functions are used.
Move these private functions to the internal C API (pycore_long.h):
* _PyLong_UnsignedInt_Converter()
* _PyLong_UnsignedLongLong_Converter()
* _PyLong_UnsignedLong_Converter()
* _PyLong_UnsignedShort_Converter()
Argument Clinic now emits #include "pycore_long.h" when these
functions are used.
Instead of using `GO_TO_INSTRUCTION(CALL_PY_EXACT_ARGS)` we just add the macro elements of the latter to the macro for the former. This requires lengthening the uops array in struct opcode_macro_expansion. (It also required changes to stacking.py that were merged already.)
Move private functions to the internal C API (pycore_sysmodule.h):
* _PySys_GetAttr()
* _PySys_GetSizeOf()
No longer export most of these functions.
Fix also a typo in Include/cpython/optimizer.h: add a missing space.
Move private functions to the internal C API (pycore_dict.h):
* _PyDictView_Intersect()
* _PyDictView_New()
* _PyDict_ContainsId()
* _PyDict_DelItemId()
* _PyDict_DelItem_KnownHash()
* _PyDict_GetItemIdWithError()
* _PyDict_GetItem_KnownHash()
* _PyDict_HasSplitTable()
* _PyDict_NewPresized()
* _PyDict_Next()
* _PyDict_Pop()
* _PyDict_SetItemId()
* _PyDict_SetItem_KnownHash()
* _PyDict_SizeOf()
No longer export most of these functions.
Move also the _PyDictViewObject structure to the internal C API.
Move dict_getitem_knownhash() function from _testcapi to the
_testinternalcapi extension. Update test_capi.test_dict for this
change.
Move private _PyEval functions to the internal C API
(pycore_ceval.h):
* _PyEval_GetBuiltin()
* _PyEval_GetBuiltinId()
* _PyEval_GetSwitchInterval()
* _PyEval_MakePendingCalls()
* _PyEval_SetProfile()
* _PyEval_SetSwitchInterval()
* _PyEval_SetTrace()
No longer export most of these functions.
