Łukasz Langa a785c87d6e DTrace support: function calls, GC activity, line execution
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.

Brett Cannon 68ed978f56 Add a What's New entry for PEP 519 2016-08-26 14:45:15 -07:00
Martin Panter 3c0d0baf2b Issue #12319: Support for chunked encoding of HTTP request bodies
When the body object is a file, its size is no longer determined with
fstat(), since that can report the wrong result (e.g. reading from a pipe).
Instead, determine the size using seek(), or fall back to chunked encoding
for unseekable files.

Also, change the logic for detecting text files to check for TextIOBase
inheritance, rather than inspecting the “mode” attribute, which may not
exist (e.g. BytesIO and StringIO).  The Content-Length for text files is no
longer determined ahead of time, because the original logic could have been
wrong depending on the codec and newline translation settings.

Patch by Demian Brecht and Rolf Krahl, with a few tweaks by me.
