The subprocess module can now use the os.posix_spawn() function
in some cases for better performance. Currently, it is only used on macOS
and Linux (using glibc 2.24 or newer) if all these conditions are met:
* executable path contains a directory
* close_fds=False
* preexec_fn, pass_fds, cwd, stdin, stdout, stderr
and start_new_session parameters are not set

Fix a NULL pointer deref in ssl module. The cert parser did not handle CRL
distribution points with empty DP or URI correctly. A malicious or buggy
certificate can result into segfault.

asyncio.ProactorEventLoop now catchs and logs send errors when the
self-pipe is full: BaseProactorEventLoop._write_to_self() now catchs
and logs OSError exceptions, as done by
BaseSelectorEventLoop._write_to_self().
IocpProactor.close() now uses time to decide when to log: wait 1
second before the first log, then log every second. Log also the
number of seconds since close() was called.
Previously, calling the strftime() method on a datetime object with a
trailing '%' in the format string would result in an exception. However,
this only occured when the datetime C module was being used; the python
implementation did not match this behavior. Datetime is now PEP-399
compliant, and will not throw an exception on a trailing '%'.
Format characters "%s" and "%V" in PyUnicode_FromFormat() and "%s" in PyBytes_FromFormat()
no longer read memory past the limit if precision is specified.
Use the fast call convention for math functions atan2(),
copysign(), hypot() and remainder() and inline unpacking
arguments. This sped up them by 1.3--2.5 times.
This change separates the signal handling trigger in the eval loop from the "pending calls" machinery. There is no semantic change and the difference in performance is insignificant.
The change makes both components less confusing. It also eliminates the risk of changes to the pending calls affecting signal handling. This is particularly relevant for some upcoming pending calls changes I have in the works.
Fix memory leaks in asyncio ProactorEventLoop on overlapped operation
failures.
Changes:
* Implement the tp_traverse slot in the _overlapped.Overlapped type
to help to break reference cycles and identify referrers in the
garbage collector.
* Always clear overlapped on failure: not only set type to
TYPE_NOT_STARTED, but release also resources.
As in title, expose C `raise` function as `raise_function` in `signal` module. Also drop existing `raise_signal` in `_testcapi` module and replace all usages with new function.

bpo-32622, bpo-35682: Fix asyncio.ProactorEventLoop.sendfile(): don't
attempt to set the result of an internal future if it's already done.
Fix asyncio _ProactorBasePipeTransport._force_close(): don't set the
result of _empty_waiter if it's already done.
test_asyncio/test_sendfile.py now resets the event loop policy using
tearDownModule() as done in other tests, to prevent a warning when
running tests on Windows.
Fix an assertion error in format() in debug build for floating point
formatting with "n" format, zero padding and small width. Release build is
not impacted. Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.
* bpo-35660: IDLE: Remove * import from window.py
* sys was being imported through the *, so also added an import sys.
* Update 2019-01-04-19-14-29.bpo-35660.hMxI7N.rst
Anyone who wants details can check the issue, where I added the point about the sys import bug.
* bpo-35588: Implement mod and divmod operations for Fraction type by spelling out the numerator/denominator calculation, instead of instantiating and normalising Fractions along the way. This speeds up '%' and divmod() by 2-3x.
* bpo-35588: Also reimplement Fraction.__floordiv__() using integer operations to make it ~4x faster.
* Improve code formatting.

* bpo-35588: Fix return type of divmod(): the result of the integer division should be an integer.
* bpo-35588: Further specialise __mod__() and inline the original helper function _flat_divmod() since it's no longer reused.
* bpo-35588: Add some tests with large numerators and/or denominators.
* bpo-35588: Use builtin "divmod()" function for implementing __divmod__() in order to simplify the implementation, even though performance results are mixed.
* Rremove accidentally added empty line.
* bpo-35588: Try to provide more informative output on test failures.
* bpo-35588: Improve wording in News entry.

* Remove stray space.
There is already a `Py_ssize_t i` defined at function scope that is used
for similar loops. By removing the local `int i` declaration that `i` is
used, which has the appropriate type.
Add Clang Memory Sanitizer build instrumentation to work around
false positives from the socket and time modules as well as skipping
a couple test_faulthandler tests.
Use crypt_r() when available instead of crypt() in the crypt module.
As a nice side effect: This also avoids a memory sanitizer flake as clang msan doesn't know about crypt's internal libc allocated buffer.
* bpo-32492: 2.5x speed up in namedtuple attribute access using C fast path
* Add News entry
* fixup! bpo-32492: 2.5x speed up in namedtuple attribute access using C fast path
* Check for tuple in the __get__ of the new descriptor and don't cache the descriptor itself
* Don't inherit from property. Implement GC methods to handle __doc__
* Add a test for the docstring substitution in descriptors
* Update NEWS entry to reflect time against 3.7 branch
* Simplify implementation with argument clinic, better error messages, only __new__
* Use positional-only parameters for the __new__
* Use PyTuple_GET_SIZE and PyTuple_GET_ITEM to tighter the implementation of tuplegetterdescr_get
* Implement __set__ to make tuplegetter a data descriptor
* Use Py_INCREF now that we inline PyTuple_GetItem
* Apply the valid_index() function, saving one test
* Move Py_None test out of the critical path.
