* subprocess: Add user, group and extra_groups paremeters to subprocess.Popen
This adds a `user` parameter to the Popen constructor that will call
setreuid() in the child before calling exec(). This allows processes
running as root to safely drop privileges before running the subprocess
without having to use a preexec_fn.
This also adds a `group` parameter that will call setregid() in
the child process before calling exec().
Finally an `extra_groups` parameter was added that will call
setgroups() to set the supplimental groups.
* 1. add test case with wrong behavior
* 2. fix bug when max_length == -1
* 3. allow b"" as valid input data for decompress_buf()
* 4. when max_length >= 0, let needs_input mechanism works
* add more asserts to test case
Test that they do not keep too many file descriptors open for the host OS in a reasonable test scenario.
See [bpo-37935](https://bugs.python.org/issue37935).
* Add a note to the PyModule_AddObject docs.
* Correct example usages of PyModule_AddObject.
* Whitespace.
* Clean up wording.
* 📜🤖 Added by blurb_it.
* First code review.
* Add < 0 in the tests with PyModule_AddObject
* bpo-13927: time.ctime and time.asctime return string explantion
* Add note explaining that time.ctime and time.asctime returns a space padded date value in case it contains a single digit date
* Reformat linebreaks
Unicode has grown since Python first gained support for it,
when Unicode itself was still rather new.
This pair of test cases was added in commit 6a20ee7de back in 2000,
and they haven't needed to change much since then. But do change
them to look beyond the Basic Multilingual Plane (range(0x10000))
and cover all 17 planes of Unicode's final form.
This adds about 5 seconds to the test suite's runtime. Mark the
tests as CPU-using accordingly.
Now the fields have names! Much easier to keep straight as a
reader than the elements of an 18-tuple.
Runs about 10-15% slower: from 10.8s to 12.3s, on my laptop.
Fortunately that's perfectly fine for this maintenance script.
* bits method and test_bits
* Cleaned up assert string
* blurb
* added docstring
* Faster method, per Eric Smith
* redoing as __format__
* added ipv6 method
* test cases and cleanup
* updated news
* cleanup and NEWS.d
* cleaned up old NEWS
* removed cut and paste leftover
* one more cleanup
* moved to regexp, moved away from v4- and v6-specific versions of __format__
* More cleanup, added ipv6 test cases
* more cleanup
* more cleanup
* cleanup
* cleanup
* cleanup per review, part 1
* addressed review comments around help string and regexp matching
* wrapped v6 test strings. contiguous integers: break at 72char. with underscores: break so that it looks clean.
* 's' and '' tests for pv4 and ipv6
* whitespace cleanup
* Remove trailing whitespace
* Remove more trailing whitespace
* Remove an excess blank line
The >=, checking whether a module index was in already in the module-by-index list, needed to be strict.
Also, fold nested ifs into one and fix some bad spacing.
