* EOFError no longer overrides other errors such as MemoryError or OSError at
the start of the object.
* Raise more relevant error when the NULL object occurs as a code object
component.
* Minimize an overhead of calling PyErr_Occurred().
This produces longer traces (superblocks?).
Also improved debug output (uop names are now printed instead of numeric opcodes). This would be simpler if the numeric opcode values were generated by generate_cases.py, but that's another project.
Refactored some code in generate_cases.py so the essential algorithm for cache effects is only run once. (Deciding which effects are used and what the total cache size is, regardless of what's used.)
test_counter_optimizer() and test_long_loop() of test_capi now create
a new function at each call. Otherwise, the optimizer counters are
not the expected values when the test is run more than once.
When running the Python test suite with -jN option, if a worker stdout
cannot be decoded from the locale encoding report a failed testn so the
exitcode is non-zero.
PyTuple_SET_ITEM() and PyList_SET_ITEM() now check the index argument
with an assertion if Python is built in debug mode or is built with
assertions.
* list_extend() and _PyList_AppendTakeRef() now set the list size
before calling PyList_SET_ITEM().
* PyStructSequence_GetItem() and PyStructSequence_SetItem() now check
the index argument: must be lesser than REAL_SIZE(op).
* PyStructSequence_GET_ITEM() and PyStructSequence_SET_ITEM() are now
aliases to PyStructSequence_GetItem() and
PyStructSequence_SetItem().
Fix test_gzip's failure under WASI, which does not have zlib, by using
test.support.import_helper.import_module to import zlib. (gzip
unconditionally imports zlib, so this does not cause any new skips.)
Remove the following private functions from the public C API:
* _Py_CheckFunctionResult()
* _PyObject_CallMethod()
* _PyObject_CallMethodId()
* _PyObject_CallMethodIdNoArgs()
* _PyObject_CallMethodIdObjArgs()
* _PyObject_CallMethodIdOneArg()
* _PyObject_MakeTpCall()
* _PyObject_VectorcallMethodId()
* _PyStack_AsDict()
Move these functions to the internal C API (pycore_call.h).
No longer export the following functions:
* _PyObject_Call()
* _PyObject_CallMethod()
* _PyObject_CallMethodId()
* _PyObject_CallMethodIdObjArgs()
* _PyObject_Call_Prepend()
* _PyObject_FastCallDictTstate()
* _PyStack_AsDict()
The following functions are still exported for stdlib shared
extensions:
* _Py_CheckFunctionResult()
* _PyObject_MakeTpCall()
Mark the following internal functions as extern:
* _PyStack_UnpackDict()
* _PyStack_UnpackDict_Free()
* _PyStack_UnpackDict_FreeNoDecRef()
This effectively reverts bb578a0, restoring the original DEOPT_IF() macro in ceval_macros.h, and redefining it in the Tier 2 interpreter. We can get rid of the PREDICTED() macros there as well!
Added a new, experimental, tracing optimizer and interpreter (a.k.a. "tier 2"). This currently pessimizes, so don't use yet -- this is infrastructure so we can experiment with optimizing passes. To enable it, pass ``-Xuops`` or set ``PYTHONUOPS=1``. To get debug output, set ``PYTHONUOPSDEBUG=N`` where ``N`` is a debug level (0-4, where 0 is no debug output and 4 is excessively verbose).
All of this code is likely to change dramatically before the 3.13 feature freeze. But this is a first step.
Brings `pathlib.Path.is_dir()` and `in line with `os.DirEntry.is_dir()`, which
will be important for implementing generic path walking and globbing.
Likewise `is_file()`.
Remove the following functions from the public C API:
* _PyObject_RealIsInstance()
* _PyObject_RealIsSubclass()
* _Py_add_one_to_index_F()
* _Py_add_one_to_index_C()
Move _PyObject_RealIsInstance() and _PyObject_RealIsSubclass() to the
internal C API (pycore_abstract.h) and no longer export their symbols
(in libpython).
Make _Py_add_one_to_index_F() and _Py_add_one_to_index_C() functions
static: no longer export them.
Remove _PyObject_HasLen() and _PySequence_IterSearch() functions from
the public C API: move them to the internal C API
(pycore_abstract.h).
No longer export these symbols (in libpython).
Remove also unused pycore_initconfig.h include in typeobject.c.
Remove private _PySequence_BytesToCharpArray() and
_Py_FreeCharPArray() functions from the public C API: move these
functions from Objects/abstract.c to Modules/_posixsubprocess.c.
Remove old aliases which were kept backwards compatibility with
Python 3.8:
* _PyObject_CallMethodNoArgs()
* _PyObject_CallMethodOneArg()
* _PyObject_CallOneArg()
* _PyObject_FastCallDict()
* _PyObject_Vectorcall()
* _PyObject_VectorcallMethod()
* _PyVectorcall_Function()
Update code which used these aliases to use new names.
Use a note:: tag so that these dict and object API deficiencies show up clearly.
A caution:: tag was considered, but our current python docs rendering doesn't do much with that (no box or color change). warning:: seemed too extreme. note looks good.
