bpo-44113: Deprecate old functions to config Python init (GH-26060)
Deprecate the following functions to configure the Python
initialization:

* PySys_AddWarnOption()
* PySys_AddWarnOptionUnicode()
* PySys_AddXOption()
* PySys_HasWarnOptions()
* Py_SetPath()
* Py_SetProgramName()
* Py_SetPythonHome()
* Py_SetStandardStreamEncoding()
* _Py_SetProgramFullPath()

Use the new PyConfig API of the Python Initialization Configuration
instead (PEP 587).

bpo-42236: Enhance init and encoding documentation (GH-23109)
Enhance the documentation of the Python startup, filesystem encoding
and error handling, locale encoding. Add a new "Python UTF-8 Mode"
section.

* Add "locale encoding" and "filesystem encoding and error handler"
  to the glossary
* Remove documentation from Include/cpython/initconfig.h: move it to
  Doc/c-api/init_config.rst.
* Doc/c-api/init_config.rst:

  * Document command line options and environment variables
  * Document default values.

* Add a new "Python UTF-8 Mode" section in Doc/library/os.rst.
* Add warnings to Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() docs.
* Document how Python selects the filesystem encoding and error
  handler at a single place: PyConfig.filesystem_encoding and
  PyConfig.filesystem_errors.
* PyConfig: move orig_argv member at the right place.

bpo-39882: Py_FatalError() logs the function name (GH-18819)
The Py_FatalError() function is replaced with a macro which logs
automatically the name of the current function, unless the
Py_LIMITED_API macro is defined.

Changes:

* Add _Py_FatalErrorFunc() function.
* Remove the function name from the message of Py_FatalError() calls
  which included the function name.
* Update tests.

Eric Snow 73cdb0c6b2 bpo-38816: Add notes in the C-API docs about fork in subinterpreters. (GH-17176)
The C-API docs are a bit sparse on the interplay between C `fork()` and the CPython runtime.  This change adds some more information on the subject.

pxinwr f4b0a1c0da bpo-31904: Add encoding support for VxWorks RTOS (GH-12051)
Use UTF-8 as the system encoding on VxWorks.

The main reason are:

1. The locale is frequently misconfigured.
2. Missing some functions to deal with locale in VxWorks C library.

bpo-34523: Py_DecodeLocale() use UTF-8 on Windows (GH-8998)
Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now use the UTF-8 encoding on
Windows if Py_LegacyWindowsFSEncodingFlag is zero.

pymain_read_conf() now sets Py_LegacyWindowsFSEncodingFlag in its
loop, but restore its value at exit.

bpo-33042: Fix pre-initialization sys module configuration (GH-6157)
- new test case for pre-initialization of sys.warnoptions and sys._xoptions
- restored ability to call these APIs prior to Py_Initialize
- updated the docs for the affected APIs to make it clear they can be
  called before Py_Initialize
- also enhanced the existing embedding test cases
  to check for expected settings in the sys module

bpo-29240: Fix locale encodings in UTF-8 Mode (#5170)
Modify locale.localeconv(), time.tzname, os.strerror() and other
functions to ignore the UTF-8 Mode: always use the current locale
encoding.

Changes:

* Add _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() and _Py_EncodeLocaleEx(). On decoding or
  encoding error, they return the position of the error and an error
  message which are used to raise Unicode errors in
  PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() and PyUnicode_EncodeLocale().
* Replace _Py_DecodeCurrentLocale() with _Py_DecodeLocaleEx().
* PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() now uses _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() for all
  cases, especially for the strict error handler.
* Add _Py_DecodeUTF8Ex(): return more information on decoding error
  and supports the strict error handler.
* Rename _Py_EncodeUTF8_surrogateescape() to _Py_EncodeUTF8Ex().
* Replace _Py_EncodeCurrentLocale() with _Py_EncodeLocaleEx().
* Ignore the UTF-8 mode to encode/decode localeconv(), strerror()
  and time zone name.
* Remove PyUnicode_DecodeLocale(), PyUnicode_DecodeLocaleAndSize()
  and PyUnicode_EncodeLocale() now ignore the UTF-8 mode: always use
  the "current" locale.
* Remove _PyUnicode_DecodeCurrentLocale(),
  _PyUnicode_DecodeCurrentLocaleAndSize() and
  _PyUnicode_EncodeCurrentLocale().

bpo-29240: PEP 540: Add a new UTF-8 Mode (#855)
* Add -X utf8 command line option, PYTHONUTF8 environment variable
  and a new sys.flags.utf8_mode flag.
* If the LC_CTYPE locale is "C" at startup: enable automatically the
  UTF-8 mode.
* Add _winapi.GetACP(). encodings._alias_mbcs() now calls
  _winapi.GetACP() to get the ANSI code page
* locale.getpreferredencoding() now returns 'UTF-8' in the UTF-8
  mode. As a side effect, open() now uses the UTF-8 encoding by
  default in this mode.
* Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now use the UTF-8 encoding
  in the UTF-8 Mode.
* Update subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle -X utf8
* Skip some tests relying on the current locale if the UTF-8 mode is
  enabled.
* Add test_utf8mode.py.
* _Py_DecodeUTF8_surrogateescape() gets a new optional parameter to
  return also the length (number of wide characters).
* pymain_get_global_config() and pymain_set_global_config() now
  always copy flag values, rather than only copying if the new value
  is greater than the old value.
