* Remove struct _node from the stable ABI list
This struct was removed along with the old parser in Python 3.9 (PEP 617)
* Stable ABI list: Use the public name "PyFrameObject" rather than "_frame"
* Ensure limited API doesn't contain private names
Names prefixed by an underscore are private by definition.
* Add a blurb
* Specialize LOAD_ATTR with LOAD_ATTR_SLOT and LOAD_ATTR_SPLIT_KEYS
* Move dict-common.h to internal/pycore_dict.h
* Add LOAD_ATTR_WITH_HINT specialized opcode.
* Quicken in function if loopy
* Specialize LOAD_ATTR for module attributes.
* Add specialization stats
The patch from [bpo-44074]() does not account for a possibly non-English locale and blindly greps for "HEAD branch" in a possibly localized text.
Automerge-Triggered-By: GH:pitrou
- Reformat the C API and ABI Versioning page (and extend/clarify a bit)
- Rewrite the stable ABI docs into a general text on C API Compatibility
- Add a list of Limited API contents, and notes for the individual items.
- Replace `Include/README.rst` with a link to a devguide page with the same info
"Zero cost" exception handling.
* Uses a lookup table to determine how to handle exceptions.
* Removes SETUP_FINALLY and POP_TOP block instructions, eliminating (most of) the runtime overhead of try statements.
* Reduces the size of the frame object by about 60%.
The stable_abi.py script no longer parse macros. Macro targets can be
static inline functions which are not part of the stable ABI, only
part of the limited C API.
Run "make regen-limited-abi" to exclude PyType_HasFeature from
Doc/data/stable_abi.dat.
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.
Add frozen modules to sys.stdlib_module_names. For example, add
"_frozen_importlib" and "_frozen_importlib_external" names.
Add "list_frozen" command to Programs/_testembed.
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.
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.
Add a private list of all stdlib modules: _Py_module_names.
* Add Tools/scripts/generate_module_names.py script.
* Makefile: Add "make regen-module-names" command.
* setup.py: Add --list-module-names option.
* GitHub Action and Travis CI also runs "make regen-module-names",
not ony "make regen-all", to ensure that the module names remains
up to date.
The smelly.py script now also checks the Python dynamic library and
extension modules, not only the Python static library. Make also the
script more verbose: explain what it does.
The GitHub Action job now builds Python with the libpython dynamic
library.
This is one of the few files that has intimate knowledge of the pyc file
format. Since it lacks tests it tends to become outdated fairly quickly.
At present it has been broken since the introduction of PEP 552.
When there is a SyntaxError after reading the last input character from
the tokenizer and if no newline follows it, the error message used to be
`unexpected EOF while parsing`, which is wrong.
Break up COMPARE_OP into four logically distinct opcodes:
* COMPARE_OP for rich comparisons
* IS_OP for 'is' and 'is not' tests
* CONTAINS_OP for 'in' and 'is not' tests
* JUMP_IF_NOT_EXC_MATCH for checking exceptions in 'try-except' statements.
This is the converse of GH-15353 -- in addition to plenty of
scripts in the tree that are marked with the executable bit
(and so can be directly executed), there are a few that have
a leading `#!` which could let them be executed, but it doesn't
do anything because they don't have the executable bit set.
Here's a command which finds such files and marks them. The
first line finds files in the tree with a `#!` line *anywhere*;
the next-to-last step checks that the *first* line is actually of
that form. In between we filter out files that already have the
bit set, and some files that are meant as fragments to be
consumed by one or another kind of preprocessor.
$ git grep -l '^#!' \
| grep -vxFf <( \
git ls-files --stage \
| perl -lane 'print $F[3] if (!/^100644/)' \
) \
| grep -ve '\.in$' -e '^Doc/includes/' \
| while read f; do
head -c2 "$f" | grep -qxF '#!' \
&& chmod a+x "$f"; \
done
"Include/token.h", "Lib/token.py" (containing now some data moved from
"Lib/tokenize.py") and new files "Parser/token.c" (containing the code
moved from "Parser/tokenizer.c") and "Doc/library/token-list.inc" (included
in "Doc/library/token.rst") are now generated from "Grammar/Tokens" by
"Tools/scripts/generate_token.py". The script overwrites files only if
needed and can be used on the read-only sources tree.
"Lib/symbol.py" is now generated by "Tools/scripts/generate_symbol_py.py"
instead of been executable itself.
Added new make targets "regen-token" and "regen-symbol" which are now
dependencies of "regen-all".
The documentation contains now strings for operators and punctuation tokens.
Two kind of mistakes:
1. Missed space. After concatenating there is no space between words.
2. Missed comma. Causes unintentional concatenating in a list of strings.
