Issue #26567:
* Add a new function PyErr_ResourceWarning() function to pass the destroyed
object
* Add a source attribute to warnings.WarningMessage
* Add warnings._showwarnmsg() which uses tracemalloc to get the traceback where
source object was allocated.
Issue #26568: add new _showwarnmsg() and _formatwarnmsg() functions to the
warnings module.
The C function warn_explicit() now calls warnings._showwarnmsg() with a
warnings.WarningMessage as parameter, instead of calling warnings.showwarning()
with multiple parameters.
_showwarnmsg() calls warnings.showwarning() if warnings.showwarning() was
replaced. Same for _formatwarnmsg(): call warnings.formatwarning() if it was
replaced.
Issue #26563:
* Add _PyGILState_GetInterpreterStateUnsafe() function: the single
PyInterpreterState used by this process' GILState implementation.
* Enhance _Py_DumpTracebackThreads() to retrieve the interpreter state from
autoInterpreterState in last resort. The function now accepts NULL for interp
and current_tstate parameters.
* test_faulthandler: fix a ResourceWarning when test is interrupted by CTRL+c
Issue #26538: libregrtest: Fix setup_tests() to keep module.__path__ type
(_NamespacePath), don't convert to a list.
Add _NamespacePath.__setitem__() method to importlib._bootstrap_external.
Issue #26564:
* Expose _Py_DumpASCII() and _Py_DumpDecimal() in traceback.h
* Change the type of the second _Py_DumpASCII() parameter from int to unsigned
long
* Rewrite _Py_DumpDecimal() and dump_hexadecimal() to write directly characters
in the expected order, avoid the need of reversing the string.
* dump_hexadecimal() limits width to the size of the buffer
* _Py_DumpASCII() does nothing if the object is not a Unicode string
* dump_frame() wrtites "???" as the line number if the line number is negative
Issue #10915, #15751, #26558:
* PyGILState_Check() now returns 1 (success) before the creation of the GIL and
after the destruction of the GIL. It allows to use the function early in
Python initialization and late in Python finalization.
* Add a flag to disable PyGILState_Check(). Disable PyGILState_Check() when
Py_NewInterpreter() is called
* Add assert(PyGILState_Check()) to: _Py_dup(), _Py_fstat(), _Py_read()
and _Py_write()
Issue #26558: If Py_FatalError() is called without the GIL, don't try to print
the current exception, nor try to flush stdout and stderr: only dump the
traceback of Python threads.
Issue #26516:
* Add PYTHONMALLOC environment variable to set the Python memory
allocators and/or install debug hooks.
* PyMem_SetupDebugHooks() can now also be used on Python compiled in release
mode.
* The PYTHONMALLOCSTATS environment variable can now also be used on Python
compiled in release mode. It now has no effect if set to an empty string.
* In debug mode, debug hooks are now also installed on Python memory allocators
when Python is configured without pymalloc.
In practice, bytecode instruction arguments are unsigned. Update the assertion
to make it more explicit that argument must be greater or equal than 0.
Rewrite also the comment.
The compile ignores constant statements and emit a SyntaxWarning warning.
Don't emit the warning for string statement because triple quoted string is a
common syntax for multiline comments.
Don't emit the warning on ellipis neither: 'def f(): ...' is a legit syntax for
abstract functions.
Changes:
* test_ast: ignore SyntaxWarning when compiling test statements. Modify
test_load_const() to use assignment expressions rather than constant
expression.
* test_code: add more kinds of constant statements, ignore SyntaxWarning when
testing that the compiler removes constant statements.
* test_grammar: ignore SyntaxWarning on the statement "1"
obj2ast_constant() code is baesd on obj2ast_object() which has a special case
for Py_None. But in practice, we don't need to have a special case for
constants.
Issue noticed by Joseph Jevnik on a review.
Issue #26146: Add a new kind of AST node: ast.Constant. It can be used by
external AST optimizers, but the compiler does not emit directly such node.
An optimizer can replace the following AST nodes with ast.Constant:
* ast.NameConstant: None, False, True
* ast.Num: int, float, complex
* ast.Str: str
* ast.Bytes: bytes
* ast.Tuple if items are constants too: tuple
* frozenset
Update code to accept ast.Constant instead of ast.Num and/or ast.Str:
* compiler
* docstrings
* ast.literal_eval()
* Tools/parser/unparse.py
with no known parent package.
Previously SystemError was raised if the parent package didn't exist
(e.g., __package__ was set to '').
Thanks to Florent Xicluna and Yongzhi Pan for reporting the issue.
In a previous change, __spec__.parent was prioritized over
__package__. That is a backwards-compatibility break, but we do
eventually want __spec__ to be the ground truth for module details. So
this change reverts the change in semantics and instead raises an
ImportWarning when __package__ != __spec__.parent to give people time
to adjust to using spec objects.
Issue #26161: Use Py_uintptr_t instead of void* for atomic pointers in
pyatomic.h. Use atomic_uintptr_t when <stdatomic.h> is used.
Using void* causes compilation warnings depending on which implementation of
atomic types is used.
Issue #25843: When compiling code, don't merge constants if they are equal but
have a different types. For example, "f1, f2 = lambda: 1, lambda: 1.0" is now
correctly compiled to two different functions: f1() returns 1 (int) and f2()
returns 1.0 (int), even if 1 and 1.0 are equal.
Add a new _PyCode_ConstantKey() private function.

Issue #26107: The format of the co_lnotab attribute of code objects changes to
support negative line number delta.
Changes:
* assemble_lnotab(): if line number delta is less than -128 or greater than
127, emit multiple (offset_delta, lineno_delta) in co_lnotab
* update functions decoding co_lnotab to use signed 8-bit integers
- dis.findlinestarts()
- PyCode_Addr2Line()
- _PyCode_CheckLineNumber()
- frame_setlineno()
* update lnotab_notes.txt
* increase importlib MAGIC_NUMBER to 3361
* document the change in What's New in Python 3.6
* cleanup also PyCode_Optimize() to use better variable names
Issue #26154: Add a new private _PyThreadState_UncheckedGet() function which
gets the current thread state, but don't call Py_FatalError() if it is NULL.
Python 3.5.1 removed the _PyThreadState_Current symbol from the Python C API to
no more expose complex and private atomic types. Atomic types depends on the
compiler or can even depend on compiler options. The new function
_PyThreadState_UncheckedGet() allows to get the variable value without having
to care of the exact implementation of atomic types.
Changes:
* Replace direct usage of the _PyThreadState_Current variable with a call to
_PyThreadState_UncheckedGet().
* In pystate.c, replace direct usage of the _PyThreadState_Current variable
with the PyThreadState_GET() macro for readability.
* Document also PyThreadState_Get() in pystate.h
not defined for a relative import.
This is the start of work to try and clean up import semantics to rely
more on a module's spec than on the myriad attributes that get set on
a module. Thanks to Rose Ames for the patch.
Don't fallback to PyDict_GetItemWithError() if the hash is unknown: compute the
hash instead. Add also comments to explain the optimization a little bit.
This avoids possible buffer overreads when int(), float(), compile(), exec()
and eval() are passed bytes-like objects. Similar code is removed from the
complex() constructor, where it was not reachable.
Patch by John Leitch, Serhiy Storchaka and Martin Panter.
requested name doesn't exist in globals: clear the KeyError exception before
calling PyObject_GetItem(). Fail also if the raised exception is not a
KeyError.
This changes the main documentation, doc strings, source code comments, and a
couple error messages in the test suite. In some cases the word was removed
or edited some other way to fix the grammar.
Issue #25274: sys.setrecursionlimit() now raises a RecursionError if the new
recursion limit is too low depending at the current recursion depth. Modify
also the "lower-water mark" formula to make it monotonic. This mark is used to
decide when the overflowed flag of the thread state is reset.
function instead of the getentropy() function. The getentropy() function is
blocking to generate very good quality entropy, os.urandom() doesn't need such
high-quality entropy.
On the x86 OpenBSD 5.8 buildbot, the integer overflow check is ignored. Copy
the tv_sec variable into a Py_time_t variable instead of "simply" casting it to
Py_time_t, to fix the integer overflow check.
function instead of the getentropy() function. The getentropy() function is
blocking to generate very good quality entropy, os.urandom() doesn't need such
high-quality entropy.
On Windows, the tv_sec field of the timeval structure has the type C long,
whereas it has the type C time_t on all other platforms. A C long has a size of
32 bits (signed inter, 1 bit for the sign, 31 bits for the value) which is not
enough to store an Epoch timestamp after the year 2038.
Add the _PyTime_AsTimevalTime_t() function written for datetime.datetime.now():
convert a _PyTime_t timestamp to a (secs, us) tuple where secs type is time_t.
It allows to support dates after the year 2038 on Windows.
Enhance also _PyTime_AsTimeval_impl() to detect overflow on the number of
seconds when rounding the number of microseconds.

Overflow test in test_FromSecondsObject() fails on FreeBSD 10.0 buildbot which
uses clang. clang implements more aggressive optimization which gives
different result than GCC on undefined behaviours.
Check if a multiplication will overflow, instead of checking if a
multiplicatin had overflowed, to avoid undefined behaviour.
Add also debug information if the test on overflow fails.
* Filter values which would overflow on conversion to the C long type
(for timeval.tv_sec).
* Adjust also the message of OverflowError on PyTime conversions
* test_time: add debug information if a timestamp conversion fails
Drop all hardcoded tests. Instead, reimplement each function in Python, usually
using decimal.Decimal for the rounding mode.
Add much more values to the dataset. Test various timestamp units from
picroseconds to seconds, in integer and float.
Enhance also _PyTime_AsSecondsDouble().
datetime.datetime now round microseconds to nearest with ties going to nearest
even integer (ROUND_HALF_EVEN), as round(float), instead of rounding towards
-Infinity (ROUND_FLOOR).
pytime API: replace _PyTime_ROUND_HALF_UP with _PyTime_ROUND_HALF_EVEN. Fix
also _PyTime_Divide() for negative numbers.
_PyTime_AsTimeval_impl() now reuses _PyTime_Divide() instead of reimplementing
rounding modes.
Issue #24891: Fix a race condition at Python startup if the file descriptor
of stdin (0), stdout (1) or stderr (2) is closed while Python is creating
sys.stdin, sys.stdout and sys.stderr objects. These attributes are now set
to None if the creation of the object failed, instead of raising an OSError
exception. Initial patch written by Marco Paolini.
Don't check anymore at runtime that the monotonic clock doesn't go backward.
Yes, it happens. It occurs sometimes each month on a Debian buildbot slave
running in a VM.
The problem is that Python cannot do anything useful if a monotonic clock goes
backward. It was decided in the PEP 418 to not fix the system, but only expose
the clock provided by the OS.

See the latest version of getrandom() manual page:
http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/getrandom.2.html#NOTES
The behavior when a call to getrandom() that is blocked while reading from
/dev/urandom is interrupted by a signal handler depends on the
initialization state of the entropy buffer and on the request size, buflen.
If the entropy is not yet initialized, then the call will fail with the
EINTR error. If the entropy pool has been initialized and the request size
is large (buflen > 256), the call either succeeds, returning a partially
filled buffer, or fails with the error EINTR. If the entropy pool has been
initialized and the request size is small (buflen <= 256), then getrandom()
will not fail with EINTR. Instead, it will return all of the bytes that
have been requested.
Note: py_getrandom() calls getrandom() with flags=0.
Summary of changes:
1. Coroutines now have a distinct, separate from generators
type at the C level: PyGen_Type, and a new typedef PyCoroObject.
PyCoroObject shares the initial segment of struct layout with
PyGenObject, making it possible to reuse existing generators
machinery. The new type is exposed as 'types.CoroutineType'.
As a consequence of having a new type, CO_GENERATOR flag is
no longer applied to coroutines.
2. Having a separate type for coroutines made it possible to add
an __await__ method to the type. Although it is not used by the
interpreter (see details on that below), it makes coroutines
naturally (without using __instancecheck__) conform to
collections.abc.Coroutine and collections.abc.Awaitable ABCs.
[The __instancecheck__ is still used for generator-based
coroutines, as we don't want to add __await__ for generators.]
3. Add new opcode: GET_YIELD_FROM_ITER. The opcode is needed to
allow passing native coroutines to the YIELD_FROM opcode.
Before this change, 'yield from o' expression was compiled to:
(o)
GET_ITER
LOAD_CONST
YIELD_FROM
Now, we use GET_YIELD_FROM_ITER instead of GET_ITER.
The reason for adding a new opcode is that GET_ITER is used
in some contexts (such as 'for .. in' loops) where passing
a coroutine object is invalid.
4. Add two new introspection functions to the inspec module:
getcoroutinestate(c) and getcoroutinelocals(c).
5. inspect.iscoroutine(o) is updated to test if 'o' is a native
coroutine object. Before this commit it used abc.Coroutine,
and it was requested to update inspect.isgenerator(o) to use
abc.Generator; it was decided, however, that inspect functions
should really be tailored for checking for native types.
6. sys.set_coroutine_wrapper(w) API is updated to work with only
native coroutines. Since types.coroutine decorator supports
any type of callables now, it would be confusing that it does
not work for all types of coroutines.
7. Exceptions logic in generators C implementation was updated
to raise clearer messages for coroutines:
Before: TypeError("generator raised StopIteration")
After: TypeError("coroutine raised StopIteration")
Known limitations of the current implementation:
- documentation changes are incomplete
- there's a reference leak I haven't tracked down yet
The leak is most visible by running:
./python -m test -R3:3 test_importlib
However, you can also see it by running:
./python -X showrefcount
Importing the array or _testmultiphase modules, and
then deleting them from both sys.modules and the local
namespace shows significant increases in the total
number of active references each cycle. By contrast,
with _testcapi (which continues to use single-phase
initialisation) the global refcounts stabilise after
a couple of cycles.
* adds missing INCREF in WITH_CLEANUP_START
* adds missing DECREF in WITH_CLEANUP_FINISH
* adds several new tests Yury created while investigating this
CID 1291697 (#1 of 1): Dereference before null check (REVERSE_INULL)
check_after_deref: Null-checking tb suggests that it may be null, but it has already been dereferenced on all paths leading to the check.
The concept of .pyo files no longer exists. Now .pyc files have an
optional `opt-` tag which specifies if any extra optimizations beyond
the peepholer were applied.
Add also a new _PyTime_AsMicroseconds() function.
threading.TIMEOUT_MAX is now be smaller: only 292 years instead of 292,271
years on 64-bit system for example. Sorry, your threads will hang a *little
bit* shorter. Call me if you want to ensure that your locks wait longer, I can
share some tricks with you.
* _PyTime_AsTimeval() now ensures that tv_usec is always positive
* _PyTime_AsTimespec() now ensures that tv_nsec is always positive
* _PyTime_AsTimeval() now returns an integer on overflow instead of raising an
exception
* Rename _PyTime_FromObject() to _PyTime_FromSecondsObject()
* Add _PyTime_AsNanosecondsObject() and _testcapi.pytime_fromsecondsobject()
* Add unit tests
In practice, _PyTime_t is a number of nanoseconds. Its C type is a 64-bit
signed number. It's integer value is in the range [-2^63; 2^63-1]. In seconds,
the range is around [-292 years; +292 years]. In term of Epoch timestamp
(1970-01-01), it can store a date between 1677-09-21 and 2262-04-11.
The API has a resolution of 1 nanosecond and use integer number. With a
resolution on 1 nanosecond, 64-bit IEEE 754 floating point numbers loose
precision after 194 days. It's not the case with this API. The drawback is
overflow for values outside [-2^63; 2^63-1], but these values are unlikely for
most Python modules, except of the datetime module.
New functions:
- _PyTime_GetMonotonicClock()
- _PyTime_FromObject()
- _PyTime_AsMilliseconds()
- _PyTime_AsTimeval()
This change uses these new functions in time.sleep() to avoid rounding issues.
The new API will be extended step by step, and the old API will be removed step
by step. Currently, some code is duplicated just to be able to move
incrementally, instead of pushing a large change at once.
Flushing sys.stdout and sys.stderr in Py_FatalError() can call again
Py_FatalError(). Add a reentrant flag to detect this case and just abort at the
second call.
It should help to see exceptions when stderr if buffered: PyErr_Display() calls
sys.stderr.write(), it doesn't write into stderr file descriptor directly.
* Display the current Python stack if an exception was raised but the exception
has no traceback
* Disable faulthandler if an exception was raised (before it was only disabled
if no exception was raised)
* To display the current Python stack, call PyGILState_GetThisThreadState()
which works even if the GIL was released

I expected more users of _Py_wstat(), but in practice it's only used by
Modules/getpath.c. Move the function because it's not needed on Windows.
Windows uses PC/getpathp.c which uses the Win32 API (ex: GetFileAttributesW())
not the POSIX API.
