Issue #28915: Replace PyObject_CallFunction() with
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs() when the format string was only made of "O"
formats, PyObject* arguments.
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs() avoids the creation of a temporary tuple and
doesn't have to parse a format string.
Issue #28915: Use _Py_VaBuildStack() to build a C array of PyObject* and then
use _PyObject_FastCall().
The function has a special case if the stack only contains one parameter and
the parameter is a tuple: "unpack" the tuple of arguments in this case.
Issue #28838: Rename parameters of the "calls" functions of the Python C API.
* Rename 'callable_object' and 'func' to 'callable': any Python callable object
is accepted, not only Python functions
* Rename 'method' and 'nameid' to 'name' (method name)
* Rename 'o' to 'obj'
* Move, fix and update documentation of PyObject_CallXXX() functions
in abstract.h
* Update also the documentaton of the C API (update parameter names)
Replace
_PyObject_CallArg1(func, arg)
with
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(func, arg, NULL)
Using the _PyObject_CallArg1() macro increases the usage of the C stack, which
was unexpected and unwanted. PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs() doesn't have this
issue.
Issue #28858: The change b9c9691c72c5 introduced a regression. It seems like
_PyObject_CallArg1() uses more stack memory than
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs().
* PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(func, NULL) => _PyObject_CallNoArg(func)
* PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(func, arg, NULL) => _PyObject_CallArg1(func, arg)
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs() allocates 40 bytes on the C stack and requires
extra work to "parse" C arguments to build a C array of PyObject*.
_PyObject_CallNoArg() and _PyObject_CallArg1() are simpler and don't allocate
memory on the C stack.
This change is part of the fastcall project. The change on listsort() is
related to the issue #23507.
* Callable object: callable, o, callable_object => func
* Object for method calls: o => obj
* Method name: name or nameid => method
Cleanup also the C code:
* Don't initialize variables to NULL if they are not used before their first
assignement
* Add braces for readability
new exception with setting current exception as __cause__.
_PyErr_FormatFromCause(exception, format, args...) is equivalent to Python
raise exception(format % args) from sys.exc_info()[1]
* BUILD_TUPLE_UNPACK and BUILD_MAP_UNPACK_WITH_CALL no longer generated with
single tuple or dict.
* Restored more informative error messages for incorrect var-positional and
var-keyword arguments.
* Removed code duplications in _PyEval_EvalCodeWithName().
* Removed redundant runtime checks and parameters in _PyStack_AsDict().
* Added a workaround and enabled previously disabled test in test_traceback.
* Removed dead code from the dis module.
Issue #27810: Add a new calling convention for C functions:
PyObject* func(PyObject *self, PyObject **args,
Py_ssize_t nargs, PyObject *kwnames);
Where args is a C array of positional arguments followed by values of keyword
arguments. nargs is the number of positional arguments, kwnames are keys of
keyword arguments. kwnames can be NULL.
Issue #27830: Add _PyObject_FastCallKeywords(): avoid the creation of a
temporary dictionary for keyword arguments.
Other changes:
* Cleanup call_function() and fast_function() (ex: rename nk to nkwargs)
* Remove now useless do_call(), replaced with _PyObject_FastCallKeywords()
Issue #27841: Add _PyObject_Call_Prepend() helper function to prepend an
argument to existing arguments to call a function. This helper uses fast calls.
Modify method_call() and slot_tp_new() to use _PyObject_Call_Prepend().
Issue #27830: Similar to _PyObject_FastCallDict(), but keyword arguments are
also passed in the same C array than positional arguments, rather than being
passed as a Python dict.
Issue #27809:
* PyObject_CallMethodObjArgs(), _PyObject_CallMethodIdObjArgs() and
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs() now use fast call to avoid the creation of a
temporary tuple
* Rename objargs_mktuple() to objargs_mkstack()
* objargs_mkstack() now stores objects in a C array using borrowed references,
instead of storing arguments into a tuple
objargs_mkstack() uses a small buffer allocated on the C stack for 5 arguments
or less, or allocates a buffer in the heap memory.
Note: this change is different than the change 0e4f26083bbb, I fixed the test
to decide if the small stack can be used or not. sizeof(PyObject**) was also
replaced with sizeof(stack[0]) since the sizeof() was wrong (but gave the same
result).
Issue #27809:
* PyObject_CallMethodObjArgs(), _PyObject_CallMethodIdObjArgs() and
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs() now use fast call to avoid the creation of a
temporary tuple
* Rename objargs_mktuple() to objargs_mkstack()
* objargs_mkstack() now stores objects in a C array using borrowed references,
instead of storing arguments into a tuple
objargs_mkstack() uses a small buffer allocated on the C stack for 5 arguments
or less, or allocates a buffer in the heap memory.
Issue #27128, PyObject_CallFunction(), _PyObject_FastCall() and callmethod():
if the format string of parameters is empty, avoid the creation of an empty
tuple: call _PyObject_FastCall() without parameters.
Make call_function_tail() less weird: don't decrement args reference counter,
the caller is now responsible to do that. The caller now also checks if args is
NULL.
Issue #27128.
Issue #27128: Modify call_function_tail() to use _PyObject_FastCall() when args
is not a tuple to avoid the creation of a temporary tuple.
call_function_tail() is used by:
* PyObject_CallFunction()
* PyObject_CallMethod()
* _PyObject_CallMethodId()
Issue #27128: Add _PyObject_FastCall(), a new calling convention avoiding a
temporary tuple to pass positional parameters in most cases, but create a
temporary tuple if needed (ex: for the tp_call slot).
The API is prepared to support keyword parameters, but the full implementation
will come later (_PyFunction_FastCall() doesn't support keyword parameters
yet).
Add also:
* _PyStack_AsTuple() helper function: convert a "stack" of parameters to
a tuple.
* _PyCFunction_FastCall(): fast call implementation for C functions
* _PyFunction_FastCall(): fast call implementation for Python functions
The deprecation warning is emitted if __float__ returns an instance of
a strict subclass of float. In a future versions of Python this can
be an error.
This avoids possible buffer overreads when int(), float(), compile(), exec()
and eval() are passed bytes-like objects. Similar code is removed from the
complex() constructor, where it was not reachable.
Patch by John Leitch, Serhiy Storchaka and Martin Panter.
This changes the main documentation, doc strings, source code comments, and a
couple error messages in the test suite. In some cases the word was removed
or edited some other way to fix the grammar.
Too bad, sometimes Py_FatalError() is unable to write the exception into
sys.stderr (on "AMD64 OpenIndiana 3.x" buildbot, the buildbot was probably out
of memory).
Call Py_FatalError() with a different message for the two cases (result+error,
or no result and no error).
Py_FatalError() instead of using an assertion in debug mode. Py_FatalError()
displays the current exception and the traceback which contain more information
than just the assertion error.
which returned an invalid result (result+error or no result without error) in
the exception message.
Add also unit test to check that the exception contains the name of the
function.
Special case: the final _PyEval_EvalFrameEx() check doesn't mention the
function since it didn't execute a single function but a whole frame.
raise a SystemError if a function returns a result and raises an exception.
The SystemError is chained to the previous exception.
Refactor also PyObject_Call() and PyCFunction_Call() to make them more readable.
Remove some checks which became useless (duplicate checks).
Change reviewed by Serhiy Storchaka.
Some time ago we changed the docs to consistently use the term 'bytes-like
object' in all the contexts where bytes, bytearray, memoryview, etc are used.
This patch (by Ezio Melotti) completes that work by changing the error
messages that previously reported that certain types did "not support the
buffer interface" to instead say that a bytes-like object is required. (The
glossary entry for bytes-like object references the discussion of the buffer
protocol in the docs.)
importlib._bootstrap is now frozen into Python/importlib.h and stored
as _frozen_importlib in sys.modules. Py_Initialize() loads the frozen
code along with sys and imp and then uses _frozen_importlib._install()
to set builtins.__import__() w/ _frozen_importlib.__import__().
and lifetime issues of dynamically allocated Py_buffer members (#9990)
as well as crashes (#8305, #7433). Many new features have been added
(See whatsnew/3.3), and the documentation has been updated extensively.
The ndarray test object from _testbuffer.c implements all aspects of
PEP-3118, so further development towards the complete implementation
of the PEP can proceed in a test-driven manner.
Thanks to Nick Coghlan, Antoine Pitrou and Pauli Virtanen for review
and many ideas.
- Issue #12834: Fix incorrect results of memoryview.tobytes() for
non-contiguous arrays.
- Issue #5231: Introduce memoryview.cast() method that allows changing
format and shape without making a copy of the underlying memory.
POSIX systems with a C extension module. This is required in order for
the subprocess module to be made thread safe.
The pure python implementation is retained so that it can continue to be
used if for some reason the _posixsubprocess extension module is not
available.
The unittest executes tests on both code paths to guarantee compatibility.
* Moves PyLong_FromPid and PyLong_AsPid from posixmodule.c into longobject.h.
