It makes it easier to look for module states in sysconfig without
special casing suffixes "_CFLAGS", "_DEPS", "_LDFLAGS", "_OBJS",
and "CTYPES_MALLOC_CLOSURE".
- c_longlong and c_longdouble need experimental WASM bigint.
- Skip tests that need threading
- Define ``CTYPES_MAX_ARGCOUNT`` for Emscripten. libffi-emscripten 2022-06-23 supports up to 1000 args.
- Mark more ``umask()`` cases
- ``dup()`` is not supported
- ``/dev/null`` is not available
- document missing features
- mark more modules as not available
This was added for bpo-40514 (gh-84694) to test out a per-interpreter GIL. However, it has since proven unnecessary to keep the experiment in the repo. (It can be done as a branch in a fork like normal.) So here we are removing:
* the configure option
* the macro
* the code enabled by the macro
Python now always use the ``%zu`` and ``%zd`` printf formats to
format a size_t or Py_ssize_t number. Building Python 3.12 requires a
C11 compiler, so these printf formats are now always supported.
* PyObject_Print() and _PyObject_Dump() now use the printf %zd format
to display an object reference count.
* Update PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T comment.
* Remove outdated notes about the %zd format in PyBytes_FromFormat()
and PyUnicode_FromFormat() documentations.
* configure no longer checks for the %zd format and no longer defines
PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T macro in pyconfig.h.
* pymacconfig.h no longer undefines PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T: macOS 10.4 is
no longer supported. Python 3.12 now requires macOS 10.6 (Snow
Leopard) or newer.
This makes macOS gdbm provided by Homebrew not segfault through correct
selection of the linked library (-lgdbm_compat) *AND* the correct ndbm-style
header (gdbm-ndbm.h instead of the invalid ndbm.h).
`HOSTRUNNER` is a program which can be used to run `BUILDPYTHON` for the host platform (for example, `python.js` requires `node`).
Also change depedencies from `build_all` to `all` so that targets which can't build everything (e.g. WASM) can still run `buildbottest` and `pythoninfo`.

- drop unnecessary ``=1`` suffix from Emscripten flags
- drop unnecessary ``-sWASM`` flag for side modules
- rename ``build_platform`` to ``build_wasm``. I introduced the target
for WASM builds a couple of months ago.
- fix ``--enable-test-modules`` for browser builds
- Remove ``--with-tclk-*`` options from `configure`
- Use pkg-config to detect `_tkinter` dependencies (Tcl/Tk, X11)
- Manual override via environment variables `TCLTK_CFLAGS` and `TCLTK_LIBS`
Shared extension on Emscripten now have suffix
``.cpython-311-wasm32-emscripten.so`` (JS loader) and
``.cpython-311-wasm32-emscripten.wasm`` (WebAssembly code).
- Add requires_fork and requires_subprocess to more tests
- Skip extension import tests if dlopen is not available
- Don't assume that _testcapi is a shared extension
- Skip a lot of socket tests that don't work on Emscripten
- Skip mmap tests, mmap emulation is incomplete
- venv does not work yet
- Cannot get libc from executable
The "entire" test suite is now passing on Emscripten with EMSDK from git head (91 suites are skipped).
In Linux kernel 5.14 one can dynamically request size of altstacksize
based on hardware capabilities with getauxval(AT_MINSIGSTKSZ).
This changes allows for Python extension's request to Linux kernel
to use AMX_TILE instruction set on Sapphire Rapids Xeon processor
to succeed, unblocking use of the ISA in frameworks.
Introduced HAVE_LINUX_AUXVEC_H in configure.ac and pyconfig.h.in
Used cpython_autoconf:269 docker container to generate configure.
The heredoc creation statements use >> to append conftest.c. This can cause
tricky build issues if the file is not correctly removed prior to its
name being reused (such name is reused several times for different
contextual tests during the build). One such result from appending may
cause #include <ac_nonexistent.h> to persist when testing to acquire
PLATFORM_TRIPLET. This can then lead to downstream issues concerning SOABI.
musl libc and gnu libc are not ABI compatible so we need set different
SOABI for musl and not simply assume that all linux is linux-gnu.
Replace linux-gnu with the detected os for the build from config.guess
for linux-musl*.
When Python is built without --enable-shared, the "python" program is
now linked to object files, rather than being linked to the Python
library (libpython.a), to make sure that all symbols are exported.
Previously, the linker omitted some symbols like the Py_FrozenMain()
function.
When Python is configured with --without-static-libpython, the Python
static library (libpython.a) is no longer built.
* Check --without-static-libpython earlier in configure.ac
* Add LINK_PYTHON_OBJS and LINK_PYTHON_DEPS variables to Makefile.
* test_capi now ensures that the "Py_FrozenMain" symbol is exported.
The build system now uses a :program:`_bootstrap_python` interpreter for
freezing and deepfreezing again. To speed up build process the build tools
:program:`_bootstrap_python` and :program:`_freeze_module` are no longer
build with LTO.
Cross building depends on a build Python interpreter, which must have same
version and bytecode as target host Python.
``Modules/Setup.stdlib`` contains ``Setup`` lines for all stdlib extension modules for which ``configure`` has detected their dependencies. The file is not used yet and still under development. To use the file, do ``ln -sfr Modules/Setup.stdlib Modules/Setup.local``.
Instead we use $(PYTHON_FOR_REGEN) .../deepfreeze.py with the
frozen .h file as input, as we did for Windows in bpo-45850.
We also get rid of the code that generates the .h files
when make regen-frozen is run (i.e., .../make_frozen.py),
and the MANIFEST file.
Restore Python 3.8 and 3.9 as Windows host Python again

``configure`` now uses a standardized format to forward state, compiler
flags, and linker flags to ``Makefile``, ``setup.py``, and
``Modules/Setup``. ``makesetup`` use the new variables by default if a
module line does not contain any compiler or linker flags. ``setup.py``
has a new function ``addext()``.
For a module ``egg``, configure adds:
* ``MODULE_EGG`` with value yes, missing, disabled, or n/a
* ``MODULE_EGG_CFLAGS``
* ``MODULE_EGG_LDFLAGS``
``Makefile.pre.in`` may also provide ``MODULE_EGG_DEPS`` that lists
dependencies such as header files and static libs.

Settings for :mod:`pyexpat` C extension are now detected by ``configure``.
The bundled ``expat`` library is built in ``Makefile``.

Settings for :mod:`decimal` internal C extension are now detected by

This gains 10% or more in startup time for `python -c pass` on UNIX-ish systems.
The Makefile.pre.in generating code builds on Eric's work for bpo-45020, but the .c file generator is new.
Windows version TBD.

"Ripped out Next/OpenStep support, which was broken anyway"
Automerge-Triggered-By: GH:tiran
From the autoconf docs *Obsolete Macros* section:
Defined the output variable EXEEXT based on the output of the
compiler, which is now done automatically. Typically set to empty
string if Posix and ‘.exe’ if a DOS variant.
Almost all checks are now cached by AC_CACHE_CHECK().
Common patterns are replaced by helper macros.
Variable names now use naming scheme ``ac_cv_func_$funcname``,
``ac_cv_lib_$library_$funcname``, or ``ac_cv_header_$headername_h``.
``SYS_SELECT_WITH_SYS_TIME`` is no longer used.
``uuid_create`` and ``uuid_enc_be`` are provided by libc on BSD. It is
safe to use ``AC_CHECK_FUNCS`` here.
Caching speeds up ./configure -C from ~ 4s to 2.6s on my system.

Add Modules subdirs to SRCDIRS to generate directories for out-of-tree
object files.
Debian wants ncurses lib. Works on Fedora, too.
Debian also needs pkg-config to detect correct flags.
Remove more outdated comments. Makefile now tracks header dependencies
-lintl is injected by configure when needed. Build _dbm with
gdbm-compat.
Group some modules by purpose. socket, select, and mmap work on Windows,
too.
