The limited C API is now supported if Python is built in debug mode
(if the Py_DEBUG macro is defined). In the limited C API, the
Py_INCREF() and Py_DECREF() functions are now implemented as opaque
function calls, rather than accessing directly the PyObject.ob_refcnt
member, if Python is built in debug mode and the Py_LIMITED_API macro
targets Python 3.10 or newer. It became possible to support the
limited C API in debug mode because the PyObject structure is the
same in release and debug mode since Python 3.8 (see bpo-36465).
The limited C API is still not supported in the --with-trace-refs
special build (Py_TRACE_REFS macro).
* Enum: streamline repr() and str(); improve docs
- repr() is now ``enum_class.member_name``
- stdlib global enums are ``module_name.member_name``
- str() is now ``member_name``
- add HOW-TO section for ``Enum``
- change main documentation to be an API reference
See [PEP 597](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0597/).
* Add `-X warn_default_encoding` and `PYTHONWARNDEFAULTENCODING`.
* Add EncodingWarning
* Add io.text_encoding()
* open(), TextIOWrapper() emits EncodingWarning when encoding is omitted and warn_default_encoding is enabled.
* _pyio.TextIOWrapper() uses UTF-8 as fallback default encoding used when failed to import locale module. (used during building Python)
* bz2, configparser, gzip, lzma, pathlib, tempfile modules use io.text_encoding().
* What's new entry
Remove the pyarena.h header file with functions:
* PyArena_New()
* PyArena_Free()
* PyArena_Malloc()
* PyArena_AddPyObject()
These functions were undocumented, excluded from the limited C API,
and were only used internally by the compiler.
Add pycore_pyarena.h header. Rename functions:
* PyArena_New() => _PyArena_New()
* PyArena_Free() => _PyArena_Free()
* PyArena_Malloc() => _PyArena_Malloc()
* PyArena_AddPyObject() => _PyArena_AddPyObject()
Remove parser functions using the "struct _mod" type, because the
AST C API was removed:
* PyParser_ASTFromFile()
* PyParser_ASTFromFileObject()
* PyParser_ASTFromFilename()
* PyParser_ASTFromString()
* PyParser_ASTFromStringObject()
These functions were undocumented and excluded from the limited C
API.
Add pycore_parser.h internal header file. Rename functions:
* PyParser_ASTFromFileObject() => _PyParser_ASTFromFile()
* PyParser_ASTFromStringObject() => _PyParser_ASTFromString()
These functions are no longer exported (replace PyAPI_FUNC() with
extern).
Remove also _PyPegen_run_parser_from_file() function. Update
test_peg_generator to use _PyPegen_run_parser_from_file_pointer()
instead.
Remove the compiler functions using "struct _mod" type, because the
public AST C API was removed:
* PyAST_Compile()
* PyAST_CompileEx()
* PyAST_CompileObject()
* PyFuture_FromAST()
* PyFuture_FromASTObject()
These functions were undocumented and excluded from the limited C API.
Rename functions:
* PyAST_CompileObject() => _PyAST_Compile()
* PyFuture_FromASTObject() => _PyFuture_FromAST()
Moreover, _PyFuture_FromAST() is no longer exported (replace
PyAPI_FUNC() with extern). _PyAST_Compile() remains exported for
test_peg_generator.
Remove also compatibility functions:
* PyAST_Compile()
* PyAST_CompileEx()
* PyFuture_FromAST()
These functions were undocumented and excluded from the limited C
API.
Most names defined by these header files were not prefixed by "Py"
and so could create names conflicts. For example, Python-ast.h
defined a "Yield" macro which was conflict with the "Yield" name used
by the Windows <winbase.h> header.
Use the Python ast module instead.
* Move Include/asdl.h to Include/internal/pycore_asdl.h.
* Move Include/Python-ast.h to Include/internal/pycore_ast.h.
* Remove ast.h header file.
* pycore_symtable.h no longer includes Python-ast.h.
Rename Include/symtable.h to to Include/internal/pycore_symtable.h,
don't export symbols anymore (replace PyAPI_FUNC and PyAPI_DATA with
extern) and rename functions:
* PyST_GetScope() to _PyST_GetScope()
* PySymtable_BuildObject() to _PySymtable_Build()
* PySymtable_Free() to _PySymtable_Free()
Remove PySymtable_Build(), Py_SymtableString() and
Py_SymtableStringObject() functions.
The Py_SymtableString() function was part the stable ABI by mistake
but it could not be used, since the symtable.h header file was
excluded from the limited C API.
The Python symtable module remains available and is unchanged.
Remove the PyAST_Validate() function. It is no longer possible to
build a AST object (mod_ty type) with the public C API. The function
was already excluded from the limited C API (PEP 384).
Rename PyAST_Validate() function to _PyAST_Validate(), move it to the
internal C API, and don't export it anymore (replace PyAPI_FUNC with
extern).
The function was added in bpo-12575 by
the commit 832bfe2ebd.
* bpo-43428: Sync with importlib_metadata 3.7.3 (16ac3a95)
* Add 'versionadded' for importlib.metadata.packages_distributions
* Add section in what's new for Python 3.10 highlighting most salient changes and relevant backport.
For some mysterious reason we have PySet_Check, PyFrozenSet_Check, PyAnySet_Check, PyAnySet_CheckExact and PyFrozenSet_CheckExact but no PySet_CheckExact.
The types.FunctionType constructor now inherits the current builtins
if the globals dictionary has no "__builtins__" key, rather than
using {"None": None} as builtins: same behavior as eval() and exec()
functions.
Defining a function with "def function(...): ..." in Python is not
affected, globals cannot be overriden with this syntax: it also
inherits the current builtins.
PyFrame_New(), PyEval_EvalCode(), PyEval_EvalCodeEx(),
PyFunction_New() and PyFunction_NewWithQualName() now inherits the
current builtins namespace if the globals dictionary has no
"__builtins__" key.
* Add _PyEval_GetBuiltins() function.
* _PyEval_BuiltinsFromGlobals() now uses _PyEval_GetBuiltins() if
builtins cannot be found in globals.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyEval_BuiltinsFromGlobals().
Include/{odictobject.h,parser_interface.h,picklebufobject.h,pydebug.h,pyfpe.h}
into Include/cpython/.
Parser: peg_api: include Python.h instead of parser_interface.h.
Expose the new PyFunctionObject.func_builtins member in Python as a
new __builtins__ attribute on functions.
Document also the behavior change in What's New in Python 3.10.
Add a new configure --without-static-libpython option to not build
the libpythonMAJOR.MINOR.a static library and not install the
python.o object file.
Fix smelly.py and stable_abi.py tools when libpython3.10.a is
missing.
bpo-42967: [security] Address a web cache-poisoning issue reported in urllib.parse.parse_qsl().
urllib.parse will only us "&" as query string separator by default instead of both ";" and "&" as allowed in earlier versions. An optional argument seperator with default value "&" is added to specify the separator.

For back-compatibility, make the new constructor parameter for public classes Function and Class
keyword-only with a default of None.
