sys.version and the platform module python_build(),
python_branch(), and python_revision() functions now use
git information rather than hg when building from a repo.
Based on original patches by Brett Cannon and Steve Dower.
Issue #27659: use -Werror=implicit-function-declaration when possible (GCC and
Clang, but it depends on the compiler version).
Patch written by Chi Hsuan Yen.
Patch by Masayuki Yamamoto, reviewed and rebased by Erik Bray.
This is a first step on the long road toward resupporting Cygwin, which does
not provide siginfo_t.si_band.
Tested on macOS 10.11 dtrace, Ubuntu 16.04 SystemTap, and libbcc.
Largely based by an initial patch by Jesús Cea Avión, with some
influence from Dave Malcolm's SystemTap patch and Nikhil Benesch's
unification patch.
Things deliberately left out for simplicity:
- ustack helpers, I have no way of testing them at this point since
they are Solaris-specific
- PyFrameObject * in function__entry/function__return, this is
SystemTap-specific
- SPARC support
- dynamic tracing
- sys module dtrace facility introspection
All of those might be added later.
Too many build tool chains do not properly support it, including building
and linking an executable fine that simply segfaults when you try to run
it (such as debian jessie 8.5's gcc 4.9). On others where it does appear
to build (ubuntu 16.04's gcc 5.4) there are still test_distutils and test_gdb
failures to deal with.
We're not going to spend time attempting to maintain a complicated white list
of what does and doesn't work in our configure.ac file.
