This adds a macro `Py_CAN_START_THREADS` that corresponds to the Python
function `test.support.threading_helper.can_start_thread()`. WASI and
some Emscripten builds do not have a working pthread implementation.
This macro is used to guard the critical sections C API tests that
require a working threads implementation.
Drop posix.fallocate() under WASI.
The underlying POSIX function, posix_fallocate(), was found to vary too
much between implementations to remain in WASI. As such, while it was
available in WASI preview1, it's been dropped in preview2.
Critical sections are helpers to replace the global interpreter lock
with finer grained locking. They provide similar guarantees to the GIL
and avoid the deadlock risk that plain locking involves. Critical
sections are implicitly ended whenever the GIL would be released. They
are resumed when the GIL would be acquired. Nested critical sections
behave as if the sections were interleaved.

Use Argument Clinic for time.clock_gettime() and
time.clock_gettime_ns() functions.
Benchmark on time.clock_gettime_ns():
import time
import pyperf
runner = pyperf.Runner()
runner.timeit(
'clock_gettime_ns(CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE)',
setup='import time; clock_gettime_ns=time.clock_gettime_ns; CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE=6',
stmt='clock_gettime_ns(CLOCK_MONOTONIC_COARSE)')
Result on Linux with CPU isolation:
Mean +- std dev: [ref] 134 ns +- 1 ns -> [change] 55.7 ns +- 1.4 ns: 2.41x faster
Replace most of calls of _PyErr_WriteUnraisableMsg() and some
calls of PyErr_WriteUnraisable(NULL) with PyErr_FormatUnraisable().

This moves several general internal APIs out of _xxsubinterpretersmodule.c and into the new Python/crossinterp.c (and the corresponding internal headers).
Specifically:
* _Py_excinfo, etc.: the initial implementation for non-object exception snapshots (in pycore_pyerrors.h and Python/errors.c)
* _PyXI_exception_info, etc.: helpers for passing an exception beween interpreters (wraps _Py_excinfo)
* _PyXI_namespace, etc.: helpers for copying a dict of attrs between interpreters
* _PyXI_Enter(), _PyXI_Exit(): functions that abstract out the transitions between one interpreter and a second that will do some work temporarily
Again, these were all abstracted out of _xxsubinterpretersmodule.c as generalizations. I plan on proposing these as public API at some point.
Replace PyUnicode_AsUTF8AndSize() with PyUnicode_AsUTF8() to remove
the explicit check for embedded null characters.
The change avoids to have to include explicitly <string.h> to get the
strlen() function when using a recent version of the limited C API.
This is partly to clear this stuff out of pystate.c, but also in preparation for moving some code out of _xxsubinterpretersmodule.c. This change also moves this stuff to the internal API (new: Include/internal/pycore_crossinterp.h). @vstinner did this previously and I undid it. Now I'm re-doing it. :/
* Add mimalloc v2.12
Modified src/alloc.c to remove include of alloc-override.c and not
compile new handler.
Did not include the following files:
- include/mimalloc-new-delete.h
- include/mimalloc-override.h
- src/alloc-override-osx.c
- src/alloc-override.c
- src/static.c
- src/region.c
mimalloc is thread safe and shares a single heap across all runtimes,
therefore finalization and getting global allocated blocks across all
runtimes is different.
* mimalloc: minimal changes for use in Python:
- remove debug spam for freeing large allocations
- use same bytes (0xDD) for freed allocations in CPython and mimalloc
This is important for the test_capi debug memory tests
* Don't export mimalloc symbol in libpython.
* Enable mimalloc as Python allocator option.
* Add mimalloc MIT license.
* Log mimalloc in Lib/test/pythoninfo.py.
* Document new mimalloc support.
* Use macro defs for exports as done in:

* gh-106320: Re-add _PyLong_FromByteArray(), _PyLong_AsByteArray() and _PyLong_GCD() to the public header files since they are used by third-party packages and there is no efficient replacement.
See https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/111140
See https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/111139
* gh-111262: Re-add _PyDict_Pop() to have a C-API until a new public one is designed.
* Move existing tests for PySys_GetObject() and PySys_SetObject() into
specialized files.
* Add test for PySys_GetXOptions() using _testcapi.
* Add tests for PySys_FormatStdout(), PySys_FormatStderr(),
PySys_WriteStdout() and PySys_WriteStderr() using ctypes.
Add PyUnicode_AsUTF8() function to the limited C API.
multiprocessing posixshmem now uses PyUnicode_AsUTF8() instead of
PyUnicode_AsUTF8AndSize(): the extension is built with the limited C
API. The function now raises an exception if the filename contains an
embedded null character instead of truncating silently the filename.
Build the _multiprocessing.posixshmem extension with the Limited C
API.
* Add <errno.h> include.
* Replace PyUnicode_AsUTF8() with PyUnicode_AsUTF8AndSize().
There were a few things I did in gh-110565 that need to be fixed. I also forgot to add tests in that PR.
(Note that this PR exposes a refleak introduced by gh-110246. I'll take care of that separately.)
* Replace PyStructSequence_SET_ITEM() with
PyStructSequence_SetItem().
* Replace PyTuple_GET_SIZE() with PyTuple_Size().
* Replace PyTuple_GET_ITEM() with PyTuple_GetItem().
Move the following private functions and structures to
pycore_modsupport.h internal C API:
* _PyArg_BadArgument()
* _PyArg_CheckPositional()
* _PyArg_NoKeywords()
* _PyArg_NoPositional()
* _PyArg_ParseStack()
* _PyArg_ParseStackAndKeywords()
* _PyArg_Parser structure
* _PyArg_UnpackKeywords()
* _PyArg_UnpackKeywordsWithVararg()
* _PyArg_UnpackStack()
* _Py_ANY_VARARGS()
Changes:
* Python/getargs.h now includes pycore_modsupport.h to export
functions.
* clinic.py now adds pycore_modsupport.h when one of these functions
is used.
* Add pycore_modsupport.h includes when a C extension uses one of
these functions.
* Define Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE in C extensions which now include
directly or indirectly (via code generated by Argument Clinic)
pycore_modsupport.h:
* _csv
* _curses_panel
* _dbm
* _gdbm
* _multiprocessing.posixshmem
* _sqlite.row
* _statistics
* grp
* resource
* syslog
* _testcapi: bad_get() no longer uses METH_FASTCALL calling
convention but METH_VARARGS. Replace _PyArg_UnpackStack() with
PyArg_ParseTuple().
* _testcapi: add PYTESTCAPI_NEED_INTERNAL_API macro which is defined
by _testcapi sub-modules which need the internal C API
(pycore_modsupport.h): exceptions.c, float.c, vectorcall.c,
watchers.c.
* Remove Include/cpython/modsupport.h header file.
Include/modsupport.h no longer includes the removed header file.
* Fix mypy clinic.py
* Only add Py_MOD_PER_INTERPRETER_GIL_SUPPORTED to limited C API
version 3.13.
* errno, xxlimited and _ctypes_test extensions now need the limited C
API version 3.13 to get Py_MOD_PER_INTERPRETER_GIL_SUPPORTED. They
now include standard header files explicitly: <errno.h>, <string.h>
and <stdio.h>.
* xxlimited_35: Remove Py_mod_multiple_interpreters slot,
incompatible with limited C API version 3.5.
zipinfo now supports the full range of values in the TZ string
determined by RFC 8536 and detects all invalid formats.
Both Python and C implementations now raise exceptions of the same
type on invalid data.
Now re.error is raised instead of OverflowError or RuntimeError for
too large width of look-behind pattern.
The limit is increased to 2**32-1 (was 2**31-1).
* Use explicit initialiser for m_base
* Add module state stub; establish global state on stack
* Put conversion factors in state struct
* Move PyDateTime_TimeZone_UTC to state
* Move PyDateTime_Epoch to state struct
* Fix ref leaks in and clean up initialisation
Add wrapper for timerfd_create, timerfd_settime, and timerfd_gettime to os module.

* Use `FindFirstFile` Win32 API to fix a bug where `ntpath.realpath()`
breaks out of traversing a series of paths where a (handled)
`ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED` or `ERROR_SHARING_VIOLATION` occurs.
* Update docs to reflect that `ntpath.realpath()` eliminates MS-DOS
style names.
This is a temporary solution. The full fix may involve serializing the traceback in some form.
(FYI, I merged this yesterday and the reverted it due to buildbot failures. See gh-110248.)
Add PyThreadState_GetUnchecked() function: similar to
PyThreadState_Get(), but don't issue a fatal error if it is NULL. The
caller is responsible to check if the result is NULL. Previously,
this function was private and known as _PyThreadState_UncheckedGet().
In a few places we switch to another interpreter without knowing if it has a thread state associated with the current thread. For the main interpreter there wasn't much of a problem, but for subinterpreters we were *mostly* okay re-using the tstate created with the interpreter (located via PyInterpreterState_ThreadHead()). There was a good chance that tstate wasn't actually in use by another thread.
However, there are no guarantees of that. Furthermore, re-using an already used tstate is currently fragile. To address this, now we create a new thread state in each of those places and use it.
One consequence of this change is that PyInterpreterState_ThreadHead() may not return NULL (though that won't happen for the main interpreter).
The existence of background threads running on a subinterpreter was preventing interpreters from getting properly destroyed, as well as impacting the ability to run the interpreter again. It also affected how we wait for non-daemon threads to finish.
We add PyInterpreterState.threads.main, with some internal C-API functions.
This change makes sure sys.path[0] is set properly for subinterpreters. Before, it wasn't getting set at all. This PR does not address the broader concerns from gh-109853.
Make PyObject_VisitManagedDict() and PyObject_ClearManagedDict()
functions public in Python 3.13 C API.
* Rename _PyObject_VisitManagedDict() to PyObject_VisitManagedDict().
* Rename _PyObject_ClearManagedDict() to PyObject_ClearManagedDict().
* Document these functions.
* Refactor os_sched_getaffinity_impl(): move variable definitions to
their first assignment.
* Fix test_posix.test_sched_getaffinity(): restore the old CPU mask
when the test completes!
* Doc: Specify that os.cpu_count() counts *logicial* CPUs.
* Doc: Specify that os.sched_getaffinity(0) is related to the calling
thread.
* Remove unused <locale.h> includes.
* Remove unused <fcntl.h> include in traceback.h.
* Remove redundant <assert.h> and <stddef.h> includes. They are already
included by "Python.h".
* Remove <object.h> include in faulthandler.c. Python.h already includes it.
* Add missing <stdbool.h> in pycore_pythread.h if HAVE_PTHREAD_STUBS
is defined.
* Fix also warnings in pthread_stubs.h: don't redefine macros if they
are already defined, like the __NEED_pthread_t macro.
Make sure that the internal C API is not tested by mistake by
_testcapi.
Undefine Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN and Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macros in
Modules/_testcapi/parts.h: move code from _testcapimodule.c.
heaptype_relative.c and vectorcall_limited.c are using the limited C
API which is incompatible with the internal C API.
Move test_long_numbits() from _testcapi to _testinternalcapi since it
uses the internal C API "pycore_long.h".
Fix Modules/_testcapi/pyatomic.c: don't include Python.h directly,
just include _testcapi/parts.h.
Ajust "make check-c-globals" for these changes.
Fix os.stat() and os.DirEntry.stat(): check for exceptions.
Previously, on Python built in debug mode, these functions could
trigger a fatal Python error (and abort the process) when a function
succeeded with an exception set.
_pystat_fromstructstat() now exits immediately if an exception is
raised, rather only checking for exceptions at the end. It fix
following fatal error in fill_time():
Fatal Python error: _Py_CheckSlotResult:
Slot * of type int succeeded with an exception set
The filename was previously intentionally omitted from exception because
"it might confuse the user". Uncaught exceptions are not generally a
replacement for user-facing error messages, so obscuring this
information only has the effect of making the programmer's life more
difficult.
PyMutex is a one byte lock with fast, inlineable lock and unlock functions for the common uncontended case. The design is based on WebKit's WTF::Lock.
PyMutex is built using the _PyParkingLot APIs, which provides a cross-platform futex-like API (based on WebKit's WTF::ParkingLot). This internal API will be used for building other synchronization primitives used to implement PEP 703, such as one-time initialization and events.
This also includes tests and a mini benchmark in Tools/lockbench/lockbench.py to compare with the existing PyThread_type_lock.
Uncontended acquisition + release:
* Linux (x86-64): PyMutex: 11 ns, PyThread_type_lock: 44 ns
* macOS (arm64): PyMutex: 13 ns, PyThread_type_lock: 18 ns
* Windows (x86-64): PyMutex: 13 ns, PyThread_type_lock: 38 ns
PR Overview:
The primary purpose of this PR is to implement PyMutex, but there are a number of support pieces (described below).
* PyMutex: A 1-byte lock that doesn't require memory allocation to initialize and is generally faster than the existing PyThread_type_lock. The API is internal only for now.
* _PyParking_Lot: A futex-like API based on the API of the same name in WebKit. Used to implement PyMutex.
* _PyRawMutex: A word sized lock used to implement _PyParking_Lot.
* PyEvent: A one time event. This was used a bunch in the "nogil" fork and is useful for testing the PyMutex implementation, so I've included it as part of the PR.
* pycore_llist.h: Defines common operations on doubly-linked list. Not strictly necessary (could do the list operations manually), but they come up frequently in the "nogil" fork. ( Similar to https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?queue)

On a Python built in debug mode, Py_DECREF() now calls
_Py_NegativeRefcount() if the object is a dangling pointer to
deallocated memory: memory filled with 0xDD "dead byte" by the debug
hook on memory allocators. The fix is to check the reference count
*before* checking for _Py_IsImmortal().
Add test_decref_freed_object() to test_capi.test_misc.
Builtin functions and methods that have non-representable signatures today
will have representable signatures yesterday, and they will become unusable
for testing this feature.
So we need to add special functions and methods to the _testcapi module
that always have non-representable signatures.
