Add the -P command line option and the PYTHONSAFEPATH environment
variable to not prepend a potentially unsafe path to sys.path.
* Add sys.flags.safe_path flag.
* Add PyConfig.safe_path member.
* Programs/_bootstrap_python.c uses config.safe_path=0.
* Update subprocess._optim_args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle
the -P command line option.
* Modules/getpath.py sets safe_path to 1 if a "._pth" file is
present.
Convert the following macros to static inline functions:
* PyCFunction_GET_CLASS()
* PyCFunction_GET_FLAGS()
* PyCFunction_GET_FUNCTION()
* PyCFunction_GET_SELF()
Limited C API version 3.11 no longer casts arguments.
Currently, calling Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and
Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() may use a function call or a static inline
function call, depending if the internal pycore_ceval.h header file
is included or not. Use a different name for the static inline
function to ensure that the static inline function is always used in
Python internals for best performance. Similar approach than
PyThreadState_GET() (function call) and _PyThreadState_GET() (static
inline function).
* Rename _Py_EnterRecursiveCall() to _Py_EnterRecursiveCallTstate()
* Rename _Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() to _Py_LeaveRecursiveCallTstate()
* pycore_ceval.h: Rename Py_EnterRecursiveCall() to
_Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() and
_Py_LeaveRecursiveCall()
Fix C++ compiler warnings: "zero as null pointer constant"
(clang -Wzero-as-null-pointer-constant).
* Add the _Py_NULL macro used by static inline functions to use
nullptr in C++.
* Replace NULL with nullptr in _testcppext.cpp.
Use _Py_CAST(), _Py_STATIC_CAST() and _PyASCIIObject_CAST() in
static inline functions to fix C++ compiler warnings:
"use of old-style cast" (clang -Wold-style-cast).
test_cppext now builds the C++ test extension with -Wold-style-cast.
Convert the following macros to static inline functions:
* PyByteArray_AS_STRING()
* PyByteArray_GET_SIZE()
* PyBytes_AS_STRING()
* PyBytes_GET_SIZE()
Limited C API version 3.11 no longer casts arguments.
Add _PyBytes_CAST() and _PyByteArray_CAST() macros.
Fix C++ compiler warnings on cast macros, like _PyObject_CAST(), when
casting a constant expression to a non constant type: use
const_cast<> in C++.
* In C++, Py_SAFE_DOWNCAST() now uses static_cast<> rather than
reinterpret_cast<>.
* Add tests to the _testcppext C++ extension.
* test_cppext no longer captures stdout in verbose mode.
When Python is built with "./configure --enable-pystats" (if the
Py_STATS macro is defined), the _Py_GetSpecializationStats() function
must be exported, since it's used by the _opcode extension which is
built as a shared library.
Fix C++ compiler warnings about "old-style cast"
(g++ -Wold-style-cast) in the Python C API. Use C++
reinterpret_cast<> and static_cast<> casts when the Python C API is
used in C++.
Example of fixed warning:
Include/object.h:107:43: error: use of old-style cast to
‘PyObject*’ {aka ‘struct _object*’} [-Werror=old-style-cast]
#define _PyObject_CAST(op) ((PyObject*)(op))
Add _Py_reinterpret_cast() and _Py_static_cast() macros.
Move the following API from Include/opcode.h (public C API) to a new
Include/internal/pycore_opcode.h header file (internal C API):
* EXTRA_CASES
* _PyOpcode_Caches
* _PyOpcode_Deopt
* _PyOpcode_Jump
* _PyOpcode_OpName
* _PyOpcode_RelativeJump
Fix signal.NSIG value on FreeBSD to accept signal numbers greater
than 32, like signal.SIGRTMIN and signal.SIGRTMAX.
* Add Py_NSIG constant.
* Add pycore_signal.h internal header file.
* _Py_Sigset_Converter() now includes the range of valid signals in
the error message.
In the limited C API version 3.11 and newer, the following functions
no longer cast their object pointer argument with _PyObject_CAST() or
_PyObject_CAST_CONST():
* Py_REFCNT(), Py_TYPE(), Py_SIZE()
* Py_SET_REFCNT(), Py_SET_TYPE(), Py_SET_SIZE()
* Py_IS_TYPE()
* Py_INCREF(), Py_DECREF()
* Py_XINCREF(), Py_XDECREF()
* Py_NewRef(), Py_XNewRef()
* PyObject_TypeCheck()
* PyType_Check()
* PyType_CheckExact()
Split Py_DECREF() implementation in 3 versions to make the code more
readable.
Update the xxlimited.c extension, which uses the limited C API
version 3.11, to pass PyObject* to these functions.
Deprecate functions:
* PyUnicode_AS_DATA()
* PyUnicode_AS_UNICODE()
* PyUnicode_GET_DATA_SIZE()
* PyUnicode_GET_SIZE()
Previously, these functions were macros and so it wasn't possible to
decorate them with Py_DEPRECATED().
Convert unicodeobject.h macros to static inline functions:
* PyUnicode_AS_DATA()
* PyUnicode_AS_UNICODE()
* PyUnicode_GET_DATA_SIZE()
* PyUnicode_GET_SIZE()
Static inline functions are wrapped by macros which casts arguments
with _PyObject_CAST() to prevent introducing new compiler warnings
when passing "const PyObject*".
Py_REFCNT(), Py_TYPE(), Py_SIZE() and Py_IS_TYPE() functions argument
type is now "PyObject*", rather than "const PyObject*".
* Replace also "const PyObject*" with "PyObject*" in functions:
* _Py_strhex_impl()
* _Py_strhex_with_sep()
* _Py_strhex_bytes_with_sep()
* Remove _PyObject_CAST_CONST() and _PyVarObject_CAST_CONST() macros.
* Py_IS_TYPE() can now use Py_TYPE() in its implementation.
Convert unicodeobject.h macros to static inline functions:
* PyUnicode_MAX_CHAR_VALUE()
* PyUnicode_READ()
* PyUnicode_READY()
* PyUnicode_READ_CHAR()
* PyUnicode_WRITE()
Move PyUnicode_READY() after _PyUnicode_Ready(), since it uses
_PyUnicode_Ready().
Static inline functions are wrapped by macros which casts arguments
with _PyObject_CAST() and casts 'kind' arguments to "unsigned int" to
prevent introducing new compiler warnings when passing "const
PyObject*".
Apparently a switch on an 8-bit quantity where all cases are
present generates a more efficient jump (doing only one indexed
memory load instead of two).
So we make opcode and use_tracing uint8_t, and generate a macro
full of extra `case NNN:` lines for all unused opcodes.

* Stores all location info in linetable to conform to PEP 626.
* Remove column table from code objects.
* Remove end-line table from code objects.
* Document new location table format
Convert macros to static inline functions:
* PyTuple_GET_SIZE()
* PyTuple_SET_ITEM()
* PyList_GET_SIZE()
* PyList_SET_ITEM()
Add a macro converting arguments to PyTupleObject*, PyListObject* or
PyObject* to prevent emitting new compiler warnings.
According to PEP 670, PyTuple_GET_ITEM() and PyList_GET_ITEM() are
left as macros.
Convert the PyWeakref_GET_OBJECT() macro to a static inline function.
Add an assertion to check the argument with PyWeakref_Check(). Add a
macro converting the argument to PyObject* to prevent emitting new
compiler warning.
Convert unicodeobject.h macros to static inline functions:
* PyUnicode_CHECK_INTERNED()
* PyUnicode_DATA(), _PyUnicode_COMPACT_DATA(),
_PyUnicode_NONCOMPACT_DATA()
* PyUnicode_GET_LENGTH()
* PyUnicode_IS_ASCII()
* PyUnicode_IS_COMPACT()
* PyUnicode_IS_COMPACT_ASCII()
* PyUnicode_IS_READY()
Reorder functions to declare functions before their first usage.
Static inline functions are wrapped by macros which casts
arguments with _PyObject_CAST() to prevent introducing
new compiler warnings when passing "const PyObject*".
