paths.
__import__ does a little trick when importing from bytecode by
back-patching the co_filename paths to point to the file location
where the code object was loaded from, *not* where the code object was
originally created. This allows co_filename to point to a valid path.
Problem is that co_filename is immutable from Python, so a private
function -- imp._fix_co_filename() -- had to be introduced in order to
get things working properly. Originally the plan was to add a file
argument to marshal.loads(), but that failed as the algorithm used by
__import__ is not fully recursive as one might expect, so to be fully
backwards-compatible the code used by __import__ needed to be exposed.
This closes issue #6811 by taking a different approach than outlined
in the issue.
Use Unicode for module name and paths in the following functions:
* PyImport_ImportModuleLevel()
* add_submodule()
* ensure_from_list()
* get_parent()
* import_module_level()
* import_submodule()
* load_next()
* mark_miss()
* Use Unicode for module name and path in the following functions:
* get_file()
* load_source_module(), parse_source_module()
* make_compiled_pathname(), check_compiled_module(),
read_compiled_module(), load_compiled_module(), write_compiled_module(),
update_compiled_module()
* On Windows, use CreateDirectoryW() instead of mkdir()
* update_compiled_module() cannot fail anymore
* Document the function
* Use RegQueryValueW() instead of RegQueryValueA()
* Use _Py_fopen() instead of fopen()
* Allocate registry key on the heap, not on the stack, and handle memory
allocation failure
* Handle Python exception in find_module()
- is_builtin(), init_builtin(), load_builtin() and other builtin related
functions use Unicode strings, instead of byte strings
- Rename _PyImport_FixupExtensionUnicode() to _PyImport_FixupExtensionObject()
- Rename _PyImport_FindExtensionUnicode() to _PyImport_FindExtensionObject()
And as a consequence, mark also name argument of
_PyImport_FindExtensionUnicode() constant too. But I plan to change this
argument type to PyObject* later.
* Rename _PyImport_FindExtension() to _PyImport_FindExtensionUnicode():
the filename becomes a Unicode object instead of byte string
* Rename _PyImport_FixupExtension() to _PyImport_FixupExtensionUnicode():
the filename becomes a Unicode object instead of byte string
filesystem encoding instead of utf-8.
imp_cache_from_source() encodes the input path to filesystem encoding and this
path is passed to make_compiled_pathname().
* _Py_fopen() and _Py_stat() come from Python/import.c
* (_Py)_wrealpath() comes from Python/sysmodule.c
* _Py_char2wchar(), _Py_wchar2char() and _Py_wfopen() come from Modules/main.c
* (_Py)_wstat(), (_Py)_wgetcwd(), _Py_wreadlink() come from Modules/getpath.c
fromlist to get __import__ to return the module desired. Now it uses the proper
approach of fetching the module from sys.modules.
Closes issue #9252. Thanks to Alexander Belopolsky for the bug report.
Call _wfopen() on Windows, or fopen() otherwise. Return the new file object on
success, or NULL if the file cannot be open or (if PyErr_Occurred()) on unicode
error.
* On non-Windows OSes: the constructor accepts bytes filenames
and use surrogateescape for unicode filenames
* On Windows: use GetFileAttributesW() instead of GetFileAttributesA()

Turned out that if you used explicit relative import syntax
(e.g. from .os import sep) and it failed, import would still try the implicit
relative import semantics of an absolute import (from os import sep). That's
not right, so when level is negative, only do explicit relative import
semantics.

Fix issue #1590864, multiple threads and fork() can cause deadlocks, by
acquiring the import lock around fork() calls. This prevents other threads
from having that lock while the fork happens, and is the recommended way of
dealing with such issues. There are two other locks we care about, the GIL
and the Thread Local Storage lock. The GIL is obviously held when calling
Python functions like os.fork(), and the TLS lock is explicitly reallocated
instead, while also deleting now-orphaned TLS data.
This only fixes calls to os.fork(), not extension modules or embedding
programs calling C's fork() directly. Solving that requires a new set of API
functions, and possibly a rewrite of the Python/thread_*.c mess. Add a
warning explaining the problem to the documentation in the mean time.
This also changes behaviour a little on AIX. Before, AIX (but only AIX) was
getting the import lock reallocated, seemingly to avoid this very same
problem. This is not the right approach, because the import lock is a
re-entrant one, and reallocating would do the wrong thing when forking while
holding the import lock.
Will backport to 2.6, minus the tiny AIX behaviour change.

(This time to the right branch. Will block duplicate merge to 3.0.2.)
This patch by Antoine Pitrou optimizes the bytecode for conditional branches by
merging the following "POP_TOP" instruction into the conditional jump. For
example, the list comprehension "[x for x in l if not x]" produced the
following bytecode:
1 0 BUILD_LIST 0
3 LOAD_FAST 0 (.0)
>> 6 FOR_ITER 23 (to 32)
9 STORE_FAST 1 (x)
12 LOAD_FAST 1 (x)
15 JUMP_IF_TRUE 10 (to 28)
18 POP_TOP
19 LOAD_FAST 1 (x)
22 LIST_APPEND 2
25 JUMP_ABSOLUTE 6
>> 28 POP_TOP
29 JUMP_ABSOLUTE 6
>> 32 RETURN_VALUE
but after the patch it produces the following bytecode:
1 0 BUILD_LIST 0
3 LOAD_FAST 0 (.0)
>> 6 FOR_ITER 18 (to 27)
9 STORE_FAST 1 (x)
12 LOAD_FAST 1 (x)
15 POP_JUMP_IF_TRUE 6
18 LOAD_FAST 1 (x)
21 LIST_APPEND 2
24 JUMP_ABSOLUTE 6
>> 27 RETURN_VALUE
Notice that not only the code is shorter, but the conditional jump
(POP_JUMP_IF_TRUE) jumps right to the start of the loop instead of going through
the JUMP_ABSOLUTE at the end. "continue" statements are helped
similarly.
Furthermore, the old jump opcodes (JUMP_IF_FALSE, JUMP_IF_TRUE) have been
replaced by two new opcodes:
- JUMP_IF_TRUE_OR_POP, which jumps if true and pops otherwise
- JUMP_IF_FALSE_OR_POP, which jumps if false and pops otherwise

Fixed for #1601: IDLE not working correctly on Windows (Py30a2/IDLE30a1)
Amaury's ideas works great. Should we build the Python core with WINVER=0x0500 and _WIN32_WINNT=0x0500, too?

Speed-up dictionary constructor by about 10%.
New opcode, STORE_MAP saves the compiler from awkward stack manipulations
and specializes for dicts using PyDict_SetItem instead of PyObject_SetItem.
Old disassembly:
0 BUILD_MAP 0
3 DUP_TOP
4 LOAD_CONST 1 (1)
7 ROT_TWO
8 LOAD_CONST 2 ('x')
11 STORE_SUBSCR
12 DUP_TOP
13 LOAD_CONST 3 (2)
16 ROT_TWO
17 LOAD_CONST 4 ('y')
20 STORE_SUBSCR
New disassembly:
0 BUILD_MAP 0
3 LOAD_CONST 1 (1)
6 LOAD_CONST 2 ('x')
9 STORE_MAP
10 LOAD_CONST 3 (2)
13 LOAD_CONST 4 ('y')
16 STORE_MAP

Give meaning to the oparg for BUILD_MAP: estimated size of the dictionary.
Allows dictionaries to be pre-sized (upto 255 elements) saving time lost
to re-sizes with their attendant mallocs and re-insertions.
Has zero effect on small dictionaries (5 elements or fewer), a slight
benefit for dicts upto 22 elements (because they had to resize once
anyway), and more benefit for dicts upto 255 elements (saving multiple
resizes during the build-up and reducing the number of collisions on
the first insertions). Beyond 255 elements, there is no addional benefit.

Now in find, rfind, index, and rindex, you can use None as defaults,
as usual with slicing (both with str and unicode strings). This
fixes issue 1259.
For str only the stringobject.c file was modified. But for unicode,
I needed to repeat in the four functions a lot of code, so created
a new function that does part of the job for them (and placed it in
find.h, following a suggestion of Barry).
Also added tests for this behaviour.

Patch #1739468: Directories and zipfiles containing __main__.py are now executable
........
The patch doesn't do the whole name mangling mambo jambo on purpose. MS sure does some weird things and I don't feel like reimplementing ntpath.normpath in C. If the user does deliberately something stupid he is on his own.
TODO: Backport to 2.6 (maybe 2.5?) and document that users should only do sys.path.append(os.path.normpath(somepath)) if they want to be on the safe side.
No detailed change log; just check out the change log for the py3k-pep3137
branch. The most obvious changes:
- str8 renamed to bytes (PyString at the C level);
- bytes renamed to buffer (PyBytes at the C level);
- PyString and PyUnicode are no longer compatible.
I.e. we now have an immutable bytes type and a mutable bytes type.
The behavior of PyString was modified quite a bit, to make it more
bytes-like. Some changes are still on the to-do list.
