* 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.
Fix potential race condition in code patterns:
* Replace "Py_DECREF(var); var = new;" with "Py_SETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "Py_XDECREF(var); var = new;" with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "Py_CLEAR(var); var = new;" with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
Other changes:
* Replace "old = var; var = new; Py_DECREF(var)"
with "Py_SETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "old = var; var = new; Py_XDECREF(var)"
with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
* And remove the "old" variable.
It combines PyImport_ImportModule() and PyObject_GetAttrString()
and saves 4-6 lines of code on every use.
Add also _PyImport_GetModuleAttr() which takes Python strings as arguments.
We're no longer using _Py_IDENTIFIER() (or _Py_static_string()) in any core CPython code. It is still used in a number of non-builtin stdlib modules.
The replacement is: PyUnicodeObject (not pointer) fields under _PyRuntimeState, statically initialized as part of _PyRuntime. A new _Py_GET_GLOBAL_IDENTIFIER() macro facilitates lookup of the fields (along with _Py_GET_GLOBAL_STRING() for non-identifier strings).
https://bugs.python.org/issue46541#msg411799 explains the rationale for this change.
The core of the change is in:
* (new) Include/internal/pycore_global_strings.h - the declarations for the global strings, along with the macros
* Include/internal/pycore_runtime_init.h - added the static initializers for the global strings
* Include/internal/pycore_global_objects.h - where the struct in pycore_global_strings.h is hooked into _PyRuntimeState
* Tools/scripts/generate_global_objects.py - added generation of the global string declarations and static initializers
I've also added a --check flag to generate_global_objects.py (along with make check-global-objects) to check for unused global strings. That check is added to the PR CI config.
The remainder of this change updates the core code to use _Py_GET_GLOBAL_IDENTIFIER() instead of _Py_IDENTIFIER() and the related _Py*Id functions (likewise for _Py_GET_GLOBAL_STRING() instead of _Py_static_string()). This includes adding a few functions where there wasn't already an alternative to _Py*Id(), replacing the _Py_Identifier * parameter with PyObject *.
The following are not changed (yet):
* stop using _Py_IDENTIFIER() in the stdlib modules
* (maybe) get rid of _Py_IDENTIFIER(), etc. entirely -- this may not be doable as at least one package on PyPI using this (private) API
* (maybe) intern the strings during runtime init
https://bugs.python.org/issue46541
* Move _PyObject_CallNoArgs() to pycore_call.h (internal C API).
* _ssl, _sqlite and _testcapi extensions now call the public
PyObject_CallNoArgs() function, rather than _PyObject_CallNoArgs().
* _lsprof extension is now built with Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro
defined to get access to internal _PyObject_CallNoArgs().
Fix typo in the private _PyObject_CallNoArg() function name: rename
it to _PyObject_CallNoArgs() to be consistent with the public
function PyObject_CallNoArgs().
The PyStdPrinter_Type type now uses the
Py_TPFLAGS_DISALLOW_INSTANTIATION flag to disallow instantiation,
rather than seting a tp_init method which always fail.
Write also unit tests for PyStdPrinter_Type.

* Use the 'p' format unit instead of manually called PyObject_IsTrue().
* Pass boolean value instead 0/1 integers to functions that needs boolean.
* Convert some arguments to boolean only once.
* Split _Py_InitializeCore_impl() into subfunctions: add multiple pycore_init_xxx() functions
* Preliminary sys.stderr is now set earlier to get an usable
sys.stderr ealier.
* Move code into _Py_Initialize_ReconfigureCore() to be able to call
it from _Py_InitializeCore().
* Split _PyExc_Init(): create a new _PyBuiltins_AddExceptions()
function.
* Call _PyExc_Init() earlier in _Py_InitializeCore_impl()
and new_interpreter() to get working exceptions earlier.
* _Py_ReadyTypes() now returns _PyInitError rather than calling
Py_FatalError().
* Misc code cleanup
METH_NOARGS functions need only a single argument but they are cast
into a PyCFunction, which takes two arguments. This triggers an
invalid function cast warning in gcc8 due to the argument mismatch.
Fix this by adding a dummy unused argument.
Replace
_PyObject_CallArg1(func, arg)
with
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(func, arg, NULL)
Using the _PyObject_CallArg1() macro increases the usage of the C stack, which
was unexpected and unwanted. PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs() doesn't have this
issue.
EINTR error and special cases for Windows.
These functions now truncate the length to PY_SSIZE_T_MAX to have a portable
and reliable behaviour. For example, read() result is undefined if counter is
greater than PY_SSIZE_T_MAX on Linux.
