sys._base_executable is now always defined on all platforms, and can be overridden through configuration.
Also adds test.support.PythonSymlink to encapsulate platform-specific logic for symlinking sys.executable
Python now gets the absolute path of the script filename specified on
the command line (ex: "python3 script.py"): the __file__ attribute of
the __main__ module, sys.argv[0] and sys.path[0] become an absolute
path, rather than a relative path.
* Add _Py_isabs() and _Py_abspath() functions.
* _PyConfig_Read() now tries to get the absolute path of
run_filename, but keeps the relative path if _Py_abspath() fails.
* Reimplement os._getfullpathname() using _Py_abspath().
* Use _Py_isabs() in getpath.c.
Remove sys.getcheckinterval() and sys.setcheckinterval() functions.
They were deprecated since Python 3.2. Use sys.getswitchinterval()
and sys.setswitchinterval() instead.
Remove also check_interval field of the PyInterpreterState structure.
* Rename PyImport_Cleanup() to _PyImport_Cleanup() and move it to the
internal C API. Add 'tstate' parameters.
* Remove documentation of _PyImport_Init(), PyImport_Cleanup(),
_PyImport_Fini(). All three were documented as "For internal use
only.".
* Add 'tstate' parameter to many internal import.c functions.
* _PyImportZip_Init() now gets 'tstate' parameter rather than
'interp'.
* Add 'interp' parameter to _PyState_ClearModules() and rename it
to _PyInterpreterState_ClearModules().
* Move private _PyImport_FindBuiltin() to the internal C API; add
'tstate' parameter to it.
* Remove private _PyImport_AddModuleObject() from the C API:
use public PyImport_AddModuleObject() instead.
* Remove private _PyImport_FindExtensionObjectEx() from the C API:
use private _PyImport_FindExtensionObject() instead.
* Add Include/cpython/import.h and Include/internal/pycore_import.h
header files.
* Move _PyImport_ReInitLock() to the internal C API. Don't export the
symbol anymore.
Add a new public PyObject_CallNoArgs() function to the C API: call a
callable Python object without any arguments.
It is the most efficient way to call a callback without any argument.
On x86-64, for example, PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(func, NULL)
allocates 960 bytes on the stack per call, whereas
PyObject_CallNoArgs(func) only allocates 624 bytes per call.
It is excluded from stable ABI 3.8.
Replace private _PyObject_CallNoArg() with public
PyObject_CallNoArgs() in C extensions: _asyncio, _datetime,
_elementtree, _pickle, _tkinter and readline.
* Replace global var Py_VerboseFlag with interp->config.verbose.
* Add _PyErr_NoMemory(tstate) function.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyEval_SetCoroutineOriginTrackingDepth()
and move the function to the internal API.
* Replace _PySys_InitMain(runtime, interp)
with _PySys_InitMain(runtime, tstate).
Add a new _PyCompilerFlags_INIT macro to initialize PyCompilerFlags
variables, rather than initializing cf_flags and cf_feature_version
explicitly in each variable.
It is now allowed to add new fields at the end of the PyTypeObject struct without having to allocate a dedicated compatibility flag in tp_flags.
This will reduce the risk of running out of bits in the 32-bit tp_flags value.
* bpo-22385: Support output separators in hex methods.
Also in binascii.hexlify aka b2a_hex.
The underlying implementation behind all hex generation in CPython uses the
same pystrhex.c implementation. This adds support to bytes, bytearray,
and memoryview objects.
The binascii module functions exist rather than being slated for deprecation
because they return bytes rather than requiring an intermediate step through a
str object.
This change was inspired by MicroPython which supports sep in its binascii
implementation (and does not yet support the .hex methods).
https://bugs.python.org/issue22385
It has been documented as deprecated and to be removed in 3.8;
From a comment on another thread – which I can't find ; leave get_coro_wrapper() for now, but always return `None`.
https://bugs.python.org/issue36933
Add a new threading.excepthook() function which handles uncaught
Thread.run() exception. It can be overridden to control how uncaught
exceptions are handled.
threading.ExceptHookArgs is not documented on purpose: it should not
be used directly.
* threading.excepthook() and threading.ExceptHookArgs.
* Add _PyErr_Display(): similar to PyErr_Display(), but accept a
'file' parameter.
* Add _thread._excepthook(): C implementation of the exception hook
calling _PyErr_Display().
* Add _thread._ExceptHookArgs: structseq type.
* Add threading._invoke_excepthook_wrapper() which handles the gory
details to ensure that everything remains alive during Python
shutdown.
* Add unit tests.
When using the "=" debug functionality of f-strings, use another Constant node (or a merged constant node) instead of adding expr_text to the FormattedValue node.
* sys.unraisablehook: add 'err_msg' field to UnraisableHookArgs.
* Use _PyErr_WriteUnraisableMsg() in _ctypes _DictRemover_call()
and gc delete_garbage().
PyErr_WriteUnraisable() now creates a traceback object if there is no
current traceback. Moreover, call PyErr_NormalizeException() and
PyException_SetTraceback() to normalize the exception value. Ignore
silently any error.
* _PyPreConfig_GetGlobalConfig() and _PyCoreConfig_GetGlobalConfig()
now do nothing if the configuration was not initialized with
_PyPreConfig_InitCompatConfig() and _PyCoreConfig_InitCompatConfig()
* Remove utf8_mode=-2 special case: use utf8_mode=-1 instead.
* Fix _PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig():
* isolated = 0 instead of -1
* use_environment = 1 instead of -1
* Rename _PyConfig_INIT to _PyConfig_INIT_COMPAT
* Rename _PyPreConfig_Init() to _PyPreConfig_InitCompatConfig()
* Rename _PyCoreConfig_Init() to _PyCoreConfig_InitCompatConfig()
* PyInterpreterState_New() now uses _PyCoreConfig_InitPythonConfig()
as default configuration, but it's very quickly overriden anyway.
* _freeze_importlib.c uses _PyCoreConfig_SetString() to set
program_name.
* Cleanup preconfig_init_utf8_mode(): cmdline is always non-NULL.
GH-13238 made extra text after a # type: ignore accepted by the parser.
This finishes the job and actually plumbs the extra text through the
parser and makes it available in the AST.
Add new sys.unraisablehook() function which can be overridden to
control how "unraisable exceptions" are handled. It is called when an
exception has occurred but there is no way for Python to handle it.
For example, when a destructor raises an exception or during garbage
collection (gc.collect()).
Changes:
* Add an internal UnraisableHookArgs type used to pass arguments to
sys.unraisablehook.
* Add _PyErr_WriteUnraisableDefaultHook().
* The default hook now ignores exception on writing the traceback.
* test_sys now uses unittest.main() to automatically discover tests:
remove test_main().
* Add _PyErr_Init().
* Fix PyErr_WriteUnraisable(): hold a strong reference to sys.stderr
while using it
_PyRuntime.preconfig.coerce_c_locale can now be used to
check if the C locale has been coerced.
* Fix _Py_LegacyLocaleDetected(): don't attempt to coerce the
C locale if LC_ALL environment variable is set. Add 'warn'
parameter: emit_stderr_warning_for_legacy_locale() must not
the LC_ALL env var.
* _PyPreConfig_Write() sets coerce_c_locale to 0 if
_Py_CoerceLegacyLocale() fails.
* Add _PyPreConfig.parse_argv
* Add _PyCoreConfig._config_init field and _PyCoreConfigInitEnum enum
type
* Initialization functions: reject preconfig=NULL and config=NULL
* Add config parameter to _PyCoreConfig_DecodeLocaleErr(): pass
config->argv to _Py_PreInitializeFromPyArgv(), to parse config
command line arguments in preinitialization.
* Add config parameter to _PyCoreConfig_SetString(). It now
preinitializes Python.
* _PyCoreConfig_SetPyArgv() now also preinitializes Python for wide
argv
* Fix _Py_PreInitializeFromCoreConfig(): don't pass args to
_Py_PreInitializeFromPyArgv() if config.parse_argv=0.
* Use "char * const *" and "wchar_t * const *" types for 'argv'
parameters and _PyArgv.argv.
* Add unit test on preinitialization from argv.
* _PyPreConfig.allocator type becomes int
* Add _PyPreConfig_InitFromPreConfig() and
_PyPreConfig_InitFromCoreConfig() helper functions
_PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig() and _PyCoreConfig_InitPythonConfig()
no longer inherit their values from global configuration variables.
Changes:
* _PyPreCmdline_Read() now ignores -X dev and PYTHONDEVMODE
if dev_mode is already set.
* Inline _PyPreConfig_INIT macro into _PyPreConfig_Init() function.
* Inline _PyCoreConfig_INIT macro into _PyCoreConfig_Init() function.
* Replace _PyCoreConfig_Init() with _PyCoreConfig_InitPythonConfig()
in most tests of _testembed.c.
* Replace _PyCoreConfig_Init() with _PyCoreConfig_InitIsolatedConfig()
in _freeze_importlib.c.
* Move some initialization functions from the internal
to the private API.
* The type of initlization function 'argc' parameters becomes
Py_ssize_t, instead of int.
* Change _PyPreConfig_Copy() return type to void, instead of int.
The function cannot fail anymore.
* Fix compilation warnings on Windows.
* Add _PyInitError functions:
* _PyInitError_Ok()
* _PyInitError_Error()
* _PyInitError_NoMemory()
* _PyInitError_Exit()
* _PyInitError_IsError()
* _PyInitError_IsExit()
* _PyInitError_Failed()
* frozenmain.c and _testembed.c now use functions rather than macros.
* Move _Py_INIT_xxx() macros to the internal API.
* Move _PyWstrList_INIT macro to the internal API.
Py_Main() and _Py_RunMain() now return the exitcode rather than
calling Py_Exit(exitcode) when calling PyErr_Print() if the current
exception type is SystemExit.
* Add _Py_HandleSystemExit().
* Add pymain_exit_err_print().
* Add pymain_exit_print().
_PyPreConfig_InitIsolatedConfig() sets configure_locale to 0 to
prevent Python to modify the LC_CTYPE locale. In that case,
coerce_c_locale an coerce_c_locale_warn are set to 0 as well.
Add new functions to get the Python interpreter behavior:
* _PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig()
* _PyCoreConfig_InitPythonConfig()
Add new functions to get an isolated configuration:
* _PyPreConfig_InitIsolatedConfig()
* _PyCoreConfig_InitIsolatedConfig()
Replace _PyPreConfig_INIT and _PyCoreConfig_INIT with new functions
_PyPreConfig_Init() and _PyCoreConfig_Init().
_PyCoreConfig: set configure_c_stdio and parse_argv to 0 by default
to behave as Python 3.6 in the default configuration.
_PyCoreConfig_Read() no longer sets coerce_c_locale_warn to 1 if it's
equal to 0. coerce_c_locale_warn must now be set to -1 (ex: using
_PyCoreConfig_InitPythonConfig()) to enable C locale coercion
warning.
Add unit tests for _PyCoreConfig_InitPythonConfig()
and _PyCoreConfig_InitIsolatedConfig().
Changes:
* Rename _PyCoreConfig_GetCoreConfig() to _PyPreConfig_GetCoreConfig()
* Fix core_read_precmdline(): handle parse_argv=0
* Fix _Py_PreInitializeFromCoreConfig(): pass coreconfig.argv
to _Py_PreInitializeFromPyArgv(), except if parse_argv=0
* Add PyMemAllocatorName enum
* _PyPreConfig.allocator type becomes PyMemAllocatorName, instead of
char*
* Remove _PyPreConfig_Clear()
* Add _PyMem_GetAllocatorName()
* Rename _PyMem_GetAllocatorsName() to
_PyMem_GetCurrentAllocatorName()
* Remove _PyPreConfig_SetAllocator(): just call
_PyMem_SetupAllocators() directly, we don't have do reallocate the
configuration with the new allocator anymore!
* _PyPreConfig_Write() parameter becomes const, as it should be in
the first place!
* Add a private _Py_InitializeMain() function.
* Add again _PyCoreConfig._init_main.
* _Py_InitializeFromConfig() now uses _init_main to decide
if _Py_InitializeMainInterpreter() should be called.
* _PyCoreConfig: rename _frozen to pathconfig_warnings, its value is
now the opposite of Py_FrozenFlag.
* Add an unit test for _init_main=0 and _Py_InitializeMain().
* _PyCoreConfig_Read() doesn't parse nor update argv
if parse_argv is 0.
* Move path configuration fields in _PyCoreConfig.
* Add an unit test for parse_argv=0.
* Remove unused "done": label in _Py_RunMain().
We cannot use "unsigned int" for exitcode on Windows, since
Py_Main() and _Py_RunMain() always return an "int".
Changes:
* _PyPathConfig_ComputeSysPath0() now returns -1 if an exception is
raised.
* pymain_run_python() no longer uses _PyInitError but display the
exception and set exitcode to 1 in case of error.
* Fix _Py_RunMain(): return an exitcode rather than calling
exit() on pymain_run_python() failure.
* _Py_ExitInitError() no longer uses ExitProcess() on Windows, use
exit() on all platforms.
* _Py_ExitInitError() now fails with a fatal error if 'err' is not an
error not an exit.
Remove the PyEval_ReInitThreads() function from the Python C API.
It should not be called explicitly: use PyOS_AfterFork_Child()
instead.
Rename PyEval_ReInitThreads() to _PyEval_ReInitThreads() and add a
'runtime' parameter.
Add "struct _ceval_runtime_state *ceval = &_PyRuntime.ceval;" local
variables to function to better highlight the dependency on the
global variable _PyRuntime and to point directly to _PyRuntime.ceval
field rather than on the larger _PyRuntime.
Changes:
* Add _PyRuntimeState_GetThreadState(runtime) macro.
* Add _PyEval_AddPendingCall(ceval, ...) and
_PyThreadState_Swap(gilstate, ...) functions.
* _PyThreadState_GET() macro now calls
_PyRuntimeState_GetThreadState() using &_PyRuntime.
* Add 'ceval' parameter to COMPUTE_EVAL_BREAKER(),
SIGNAL_PENDING_SIGNALS(), _PyEval_SignalAsyncExc(),
_PyEval_SignalReceived() and _PyEval_FiniThreads() macros and
functions.
* Add 'tstate' parameter to call_function(), do_call_core() and
do_raise().
* Add 'runtime' parameter to _Py_CURRENTLY_FINALIZING(),
_Py_FinishPendingCalls() and _PyThreadState_DeleteExcept()
macros and functions.
* Declare 'runtime', 'tstate', 'ceval' and 'eval_breaker' variables
as constant.
Add new trashcan macros to deal with a double deallocation that could occur when the `tp_dealloc` of a subclass calls the `tp_dealloc` of a base class and that base class uses the trashcan mechanism.
Patch by Jeroen Demeyer.
If a "=" is specified a the end of an f-string expression, the f-string will evaluate to the text of the expression, followed by '=', followed by the repr of the value of the expression.
_PyCoreConfig_SetPyArgv() and _PyCoreConfig_SetWideString() now
pre-initialize Python if needed to ensure that the locale encoding is
properly configured.
* Add _Py_PreInitializeFromPyArgv() internal function.
* Add 'args' parameter to _Py_PreInitializeFromCoreConfig()
_PyCoreConfig: Change filesystem_encoding, filesystem_errors,
stdio_encoding and stdio_errors fields type from char* to wchar_t*.
Changes:
* PyInterpreterState: replace fscodec_initialized (int) with fs_codec
structure.
* Add get_error_handler_wide() and unicode_encode_utf8() helper
functions.
* Add error_handler parameter to unicode_encode_locale()
and unicode_decode_locale().
* Remove _PyCoreConfig_SetString().
* Rename _PyCoreConfig_SetWideString() to _PyCoreConfig_SetString().
* Rename _PyCoreConfig_SetWideStringFromString()
to _PyCoreConfig_DecodeLocale().
Add _Py_FORCE_UTF8_LOCALE and _Py_FORCE_UTF8_FS_ENCODING macros to
avoid factorize "#if defined(__ANDROID__) || defined(__VXWORKS__)"
and "#if defined(__APPLE__)".
Cleanup also config_init_fs_encoding().
* Remove _PyInitError.user_err field and _Py_INIT_USER_ERR() macro:
use _Py_INIT_ERR() instead. _Py_ExitInitError() now longer calls
abort() on error: exit with exit code 1 instead.
* Add _PyInitError._type private field.
* exitcode field type is now unsigned int on Windows.
* Rename prefix field to _func.
* Rename msg field to err_msg.
