bpo-46906: Mention native endian in PyFloat_Pack8() doc (GH-31866) 2022-03-14 16:51:51 +01:00
Victor Stinner 882d8096c2
bpo-46906: Add PyFloat_Pack8() to the C API (GH-31657)
Add new functions to pack and unpack C double (serialize and
deserialize):

* PyFloat_Pack2(), PyFloat_Pack4(), PyFloat_Pack8()
* PyFloat_Unpack2(), PyFloat_Unpack4(), PyFloat_Unpack8()

Document these functions and add unit tests.

Rename private functions and move them from the internal C API
to the public C API:

* _PyFloat_Pack2() => PyFloat_Pack2()
* _PyFloat_Pack4() => PyFloat_Pack4()
* _PyFloat_Pack8() => PyFloat_Pack8()
* _PyFloat_Unpack2() => PyFloat_Unpack2()
* _PyFloat_Unpack4() => PyFloat_Unpack4()
* _PyFloat_Unpack8() => PyFloat_Unpack8()

Replace the "unsigned char*" type with "char*" which is more common
and easy to use.

bpo-42528: Improve the docs of most Py*_Check{,Exact} API calls (GH-23602)
I think that none of these API calls can fail, but only few of them are
documented as such. Add the sentence "This function always succeeds" (which is
the same already used e.g. by PyNumber_Check) to all of them.

  Patch #1953
  I implemented the function sys._compact_freelists() and C API functions PyInt_/PyFloat_CompactFreeList() to compact the pre-allocated blocks of ints and floats. They allow the user to reduce the memory usage of a Python process that deals with lots of numbers.
  The patch also renames sys._cleartypecache to sys._clear_type_cache
