On FreeBSD, Python no longer calls fedisableexcept() at startup to

since FreeBSD 6: it became the default mode.
For now, we'll rely on the fact that the config structures aren't covered by the stable ABI.
We may revisit this in the future if we further explore the idea of offering a stable embedding API.

* Accept only ChannelID and int-like objects in channel functions.
* Accept only InterpreterId, int-like objects and str in the InterpreterId constructor.
* Accept int-like objects, not just int in interpreter related functions.
- Migrate `Random_Type` to `PyType_FromSpec`
- To simulate an old use of `PyLong_Type.tp_as_number->nb_absolute`, I added
code to the module init function to stash `int.__abs__` for later
use. Ideally we'd use `PyType_GetSlot()` instead, but it doesn't currently
work for static types in CPython, and implementing it just for this case
doesn't seem worth it.
- Do exact check for long and dispatch to PyNumber_Absolute, use vector call when not exact.
The usedforsecurity keyword only argument added to the hash constructors is useful for FIPS builds and similar restrictive environment with non-technical requirements that legacy algorithms be forbidden by their implementations without being explicitly annotated as not being used for any security related purposes. Linux distros with FIPS support benefit from this being standard rather than making up their own way(s) to do it.

* subprocess: Add user, group and extra_groups paremeters to subprocess.Popen
This adds a `user` parameter to the Popen constructor that will call
setreuid() in the child before calling exec(). This allows processes
running as root to safely drop privileges before running the subprocess
without having to use a preexec_fn.
This also adds a `group` parameter that will call setregid() in
the child process before calling exec().
Finally an `extra_groups` parameter was added that will call
setgroups() to set the supplimental groups.

The instance destructor for a type is responsible for preparing
an instance for deallocation by decrementing the reference counts
of its referents.
If an instance belongs to a heap type, the type object of an instance
has its reference count decremented while for static types, which
are permanently allocated, the type object is unaffected by the
instance destructor.
Previously, the default instance destructor searched the class
hierarchy for an inherited instance destructor and, if present,
would invoke it.
Then, if the instance type is a heap type, it would decrement the
reference count of that heap type. However, this could result in the
premature destruction of a type because the inherited instance
destructor should have already decremented the reference count
of the type object.
This change avoids the premature destruction of the type object
by suppressing the decrement of its reference count when an
inherited, non-default instance destructor has been invoked.
Finally, an assertion on the Py_SIZE of a type was deleted. Heap
types have a non zero size, making this into an incorrect assertion.

The purpose of the `unicodedata.is_normalized` function is to answer
the question `str == unicodedata.normalized(form, str)` more
efficiently than writing just that, by using the "quick check"
optimization described in the Unicode standard in UAX #15.
However, it turns out the code doesn't implement the full algorithm
from the standard, and as a result we often miss the optimization and
end up having to compute the whole normalized string after all.
Implement the standard's algorithm. This greatly speeds up
`unicodedata.is_normalized` in many cases where our partial variant
of quick-check had been returning MAYBE and the standard algorithm
returns NO.
At a quick test on my desktop, the existing code takes about 4.4 ms/MB
(so 4.4 ns per byte) when the partial quick-check returns MAYBE and it
has to do the slow normalize-and-compare:
$ build.base/python -m timeit -s 'import unicodedata; s = "\uf900"*500000' \
-- 'unicodedata.is_normalized("NFD", s)'
50 loops, best of 5: 4.39 msec per loop
With this patch, it gets the answer instantly (58 ns) on the same 1 MB
string:
$ build.dev/python -m timeit -s 'import unicodedata; s = "\uf900"*500000' \
-- 'unicodedata.is_normalized("NFD", s)'
5000000 loops, best of 5: 58.2 nsec per loop
This restores a small optimization that the original version of this
code had for the `unicodedata.normalize` use case.
With this, that case is actually faster than in master!
$ build.base/python -m timeit -s 'import unicodedata; s = "\u0338"*500000' \
-- 'unicodedata.normalize("NFD", s)'
500 loops, best of 5: 561 usec per loop
$ build.dev/python -m timeit -s 'import unicodedata; s = "\u0338"*500000' \
-- 'unicodedata.normalize("NFD", s)'
500 loops, best of 5: 512 usec per loop

Fix a ctypes regression of Python 3.8. When a ctypes.Structure is
passed by copy to a function, ctypes internals created a temporary

finalizer twice.

_ctypes_callproc() to call PyMem_Free(ptr) on Py_DECREF(argument).

The faulthandler module no longer allocates its alternative stack at
Python startup. Now the stack is only allocated at the first
faulthandler usage.
faulthandler no longer ignores memory allocation failure when
allocating the stack. sigaltstack() failure now raises an OSError
exception, rather than being ignored.
The alternative stack is no longer used if sigaction() is
not available. In practice, sigaltstack() should only be available
when sigaction() is avaialble, so this change should have no effect
in practice.
faulthandler.dump_traceback_later() internal locks are now only
allocated at the first dump_traceback_later() call, rather than
always being allocated at Python startup.
There are plenty of legitimate scripts in the tree that begin with a
`#!`, but also a few that seem to be marked executable by mistake.
Found them with this command -- it gets executable files known to Git,
filters to the ones that don't start with a `#!`, and then unmarks
them as executable:
$ git ls-files --stage \
| perl -lane 'print $F[3] if (!/^100644/)' \
| while read f; do
head -c2 "$f" | grep -qxF '#!' \
|| chmod a-x "$f"; \
done
Looking at the list by hand confirms that we didn't sweep up any
files that should have the executable bit after all. In particular
* The `.psd` files are images from Photoshop.
* The `.bat` files sure look like things that can be run.
But we have lots of other `.bat` files, and they don't have
this bit set, so it must not be needed for them.

FreeBSD implementation of poll(2) restricts the timeout argument to be
either zero, or positive, or equal to INFTIM (-1).
Unless otherwise overridden, socket timeout defaults to -1. This value
is then converted to milliseconds (-1000) and used as argument to the
poll syscall. poll returns EINVAL (22), and the connection fails.
This bug was discovered during the EINTR handling testing, and the
reproduction code can be found in
https://bugs.python.org/issue23618 (see connect_eintr.py,
attached). On GNU/Linux, the example runs as expected.
This change is trivial:
If the supplied timeout value is negative, truncate it to -1.
This fixes an inconsistency between the Python and C implementations of
the datetime module. The pure python version of the code was not
accepting offsets greater than 23:59 but less than 24:00. This is an
accidental legacy of the original implementation, which was put in place
before tzinfo allowed sub-minute time zone offsets.

Expose the CAN_BCM SocketCAN constants used in the bcm_msg_head struct
flags (provided by <linux/can/bcm.h>) under the socket library.
This adds the following constants with a CAN_BCM prefix:
* SETTIMER
* STARTTIMER
* TX_COUNTEVT
* TX_ANNOUNCE
* TX_CP_CAN_ID
* RX_FILTER_ID
* RX_CHECK_DLC
* RX_NO_AUTOTIMER
* RX_ANNOUNCE_RESUME
* TX_RESET_MULTI_IDX
* RX_RTR_FRAME
* CAN_FD_FRAME
The CAN_FD_FRAME flag was introduced in the 4.8 kernel, while the other
ones were present since SocketCAN drivers were mainlined in 2.6.25. As
such, it is probably unnecessary to guard against these constants being
missing.
When scanning the string, most characters are valid, so
checking for invalid characters first means never needing
to check the value of strict on valid strings, and only
needing to check it on invalid characters when doing
non-strict parsing of invalid strings.
This provides a measurable reduction in per-character
processing time (~11% in the pre-merge patch testing).
Deprecate the parser module and add a deprecation warning triggered on import and a warning block in the documentation.

The `arraymodule`'s `b_getitem` function returns a `PyLong` converted
from `arrayobject`'s array, by dereferencing a pointer to `char`.
When the `char` type is `signed char`, the `if (x >= 128) x -= 256;` comparison/code is redundant because a `signed char` will have a value of `[-128, 127]` and so `x` will never be greater or equal than 128.
This check was indeed needed for situations where a given compiler would assume `char` being `unsigned char` which would make `x` in `[0, 256]` range.
However, the check can be removed if we cast the `ob_item` into a signed char pointer (`signed char*`) instead of `char*`.
This PR/commit introduces this change.

The sqlite3 module now raises TypeError, rather than ValueError, if

In development mode and in debug build, encoding and errors arguments

open(), str.encode() and bytes.decode().
By default, for best performances, the errors argument is only
checked at the first encoding/decoding error, and the encoding
argument is sometimes ignored for empty strings.
Python now gets the absolute path of the script filename specified on

At the moment you can definitely use UDPLITE sockets on Linux systems, but it would be good if this support were formalized such that you can detect support at runtime easily.
At the moment, to make and use a UDPLITE socket requires something like the following code:
```
>>> import socket
>>> a = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM, 136)
>>> b = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM, 136)
>>> a.bind(('localhost', 44444))
>>> b.sendto(b'test'*256, ('localhost', 44444))
>>> b.setsockopt(136, 10, 16)
>>> b.sendto(b'test'*256, ('localhost', 44444))
>>> b.setsockopt(136, 10, 32)
>>> b.sendto(b'test'*256, ('localhost', 44444))
>>> b.setsockopt(136, 10, 64)
>>> b.sendto(b'test'*256, ('localhost', 44444))
```
If you look at this through Wireshark, you can see that the packets are different in that the checksums and checksum coverages change.
With the pull request that I am submitting momentarily, you could do the following code instead:
```
>>> import socket
>>> a = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM, socket.IPPROTO_UDPLITE)
>>> b = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM, socket.IPPROTO_UDPLITE)
>>> a.bind(('localhost', 44444))
>>> b.sendto(b'test'*256, ('localhost', 44444))
>>> b.set_send_checksum_coverage(16)
>>> b.sendto(b'test'*256, ('localhost', 44444))
>>> b.set_send_checksum_coverage(32)
>>> b.sendto(b'test'*256, ('localhost', 44444))
>>> b.set_send_checksum_coverage(64)
>>> b.sendto(b'test'*256, ('localhost', 44444))
```
One can also detect support for UDPLITE just by checking
```
>>> hasattr(socket, 'IPPROTO_UDPLITE')
```

It is the most efficient way to call a callback without any argument.

In the meantime one possible workaround is to temporarily change the locale by calling setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "C") before calling _tzset and restore the current locale after if the GetACP() == CP_UTF8 or CP_UTF7

Replace two Python function calls with a single one to ensure that no

When inheriting a heap subclass from a vectorcall class that sets
`.tp_call=PyVectorcall_Call` (as recommended in PEP 590), the subclass does
not inherit `_Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_VECTORCALL`, and thus `PyVectorcall_Call` does
not work for it.
This attempts to solve the issue by:
* always inheriting `tp_vectorcall_offset` unless `tp_call` is overridden
in the subclass
* inheriting _Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_VECTORCALL for static types, unless `tp_call`
is overridden
* making `PyVectorcall_Call` ignore `_Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_VECTORCALL`
This means it'll be ever more important to only call `PyVectorcall_Call`
on classes that support vectorcall. In `PyVectorcall_Call`'s intended role
as `tp_call` filler, that's not a problem.
