bpo-32030: Rework memory allocators (#4625)
* Fix _PyMem_SetupAllocators("debug"): always restore allocators to
  the defaults, rather than only caling _PyMem_SetupDebugHooks().
* Add _PyMem_SetDefaultAllocator() helper to set the "default"
  allocator.
* Add _PyMem_GetAllocatorsName(): get the name of the allocators
* main() now uses debug hooks on memory allocators if Py_DEBUG is
  defined, rather than calling directly malloc()
* Document default memory allocators in C API documentation
* _Py_InitializeCore() now fails with a fatal user error if
  PYTHONMALLOC value is an unknown memory allocator, instead of
  failing with a fatal internal error.
* Add new tests on the PYTHONMALLOC environment variable
* Add support.with_pymalloc()
* Add the _testcapi.WITH_PYMALLOC constant and expose it as
   support.with_pymalloc().
* sysconfig.get_config_var('WITH_PYMALLOC') doesn't work on Windows, so
   replace it with support.with_pymalloc().
* pythoninfo: add _testcapi collector for pymem

  properly
* Add pathconfig_clear()
* Windows calculate_path_impl(): replace Py_FatalError() with
  _PyInitError

bpo-32030: Add _PyMainInterpreterConfig_ReadEnv() (#4542)
Py_GetPath() and Py_Main() now call
_PyMainInterpreterConfig_ReadEnv() to share the same code to get
environment variables.

Changes:

* Add _PyMainInterpreterConfig_ReadEnv()
* Add _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Clear()
* Add _PyMem_RawWcsdup()
* _PyMainInterpreterConfig: rename pythonhome to home
* Rename _Py_ReadMainInterpreterConfig() to
  _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read()
* Use _Py_INIT_USER_ERR(), instead of _Py_INIT_ERR(), for decoding
  errors: the user is able to fix the issue, it's not a bug in
  Python. Same change was made in _Py_INIT_NO_MEMORY().
* Remove _Py_GetPythonHomeWithConfig()

    (path_config) at once on success.

* _Py_GetPythonHomeWithConfig() now returns an error on failure
* Add _Py_INIT_NO_MEMORY() helper: report a memory allocation failure
* Coding style fixes (PEP 7)

  failure.
* Pass configuration as constant

bpo-32089: Fix warnings filters in dev mode (#4482)
The developer mode (-X dev) now creates all default warnings filters
to order filters in the correct order to always show ResourceWarning
and make BytesWarning depend on the -b option.

Write a functional test to make sure that ResourceWarning is logged
twice at the same location in the developer mode.

Add a new 'dev_mode' field to _PyCoreConfig.

bpo-32043: New "developer mode": "-X dev" option (#4413)
Add a new "developer mode": new "-X dev" command line option to
enable debug checks at runtime.

Changes:

* Add unit tests for -X dev
* test_cmd_line: replace test.support with support.
* Fix _PyRuntimeState_Fini(): Use the same memory allocator
   than _PyRuntimeState_Init().
* Fix _PyMem_GetDefaultRawAllocator()

bpo-32030: Enhance Py_Main() (#4412)
Parse more env vars in Py_Main():

* Add more options to _PyCoreConfig:

  * faulthandler
  * tracemalloc
  * importtime

* Move code to parse environment variables from _Py_InitializeCore()
  to Py_Main(). This change fixes a regression from Python 3.6:
  PYTHONUNBUFFERED is now read before calling pymain_init_stdio().
* _PyFaulthandler_Init() and _PyTraceMalloc_Init() now take an
  argument to decide if the module has to be enabled at startup.
* tracemalloc_start() is now responsible to check the maximum number
  of frames.

Other changes:

* Cleanup Py_Main():

  * Rename some pymain_xxx() subfunctions
  * Add pymain_run_python() subfunction

* Cleanup Py_NewInterpreter()
* _PyInterpreterState_Enable() now reports failure
* init_hash_secret() now considers pyurandom() failure as an "user
  error": don't fail with abort().
* pymain_optlist_append() and pymain_strdup() now sets err on memory
  allocation failure.

bpo-32030: Split Py_Main() into subfunctions (#4399)
* Don't use "Python runtime" anymore to parse command line options or
  to get environment variables: pymain_init() is now a strict
  separation.
* Use an error message rather than "crashing" directly with
  Py_FatalError(). Limit the number of calls to Py_FatalError(). It
  prepares the code to handle errors more nicely later.
* Warnings options (-W, PYTHONWARNINGS) and "XOptions" (-X) are now
  only added to the sys module once Python core is properly
  initialized.
* _PyMain is now the well identified owner of some important strings
  like: warnings options, XOptions, and the "program name". The
  program name string is now properly freed at exit.
  pymain_free() is now responsible to free the "command" string.
* Rename most methods in Modules/main.c to use a "pymain_" prefix to
  avoid conflits and ease debug.
* Replace _Py_CommandLineDetails_INIT with memset(0)
* Reorder a lot of code to fix the initialization ordering. For
  example, initializing standard streams now comes before parsing
  PYTHONWARNINGS.
* Py_Main() now handles errors when adding warnings options and
  XOptions.
* Add _PyMem_GetDefaultRawAllocator() private function.
* Cleanup _PyMem_Initialize(): remove useless global constants: move
  them into _PyMem_Initialize().
* Call _PyRuntime_Initialize() as soon as possible:
  _PyRuntime_Initialize() now returns an error message on failure.
* Add _PyInitError structure and following macros:

  * _Py_INIT_OK()
  * _Py_INIT_ERR(msg)
  * _Py_INIT_USER_ERR(msg): "user" error, don't abort() in that case
  * _Py_INIT_FAILED(err)

Replace KB unit with KiB (#4293)
kB (*kilo* byte) unit means 1000 bytes, whereas KiB ("kibibyte")
means 1024 bytes. KB was misused: replace kB or KB with KiB when
appropriate.

Same change for MB and GB which become MiB and GiB.

Change the output of Tools/iobench/iobench.py.

Round also the size of the documentation from 5.5 MB to 5 MiB.

Jack O'Connor dcfb0e3c04 bpo-31933: fix blake2 multi-byte params on big endian platforms (#4250)
All Blake2 params have to be encoded in little-endian byte order. For
the two multi-byte integer params, leaf_length and node_offset, that
means that assigning a native-endian integer to them appears to work on
little-endian platforms, but gives the wrong result on big-endian. The
current libb2 API doesn't make that very clear, and @sneves is working
on new API functions in the GH issue above. In the meantime, we can work
around the problem by explicitly assigning little-endian values to the
parameter block.

Lars Viklund 388cd85e51 Remove nested comments in blake2 (#4173)
Replace occurence of nested comments in blake2 reference implementation
with preprocessor directive for disabling unused code.

`blake2s-load-xop.h` is conditionally pulled in only on chips with XOP
support, among others the AMD Bulldozer. The malformed comments in the
source file breaks the build of `hashlib`'s `_blake2` on GCC 6.3.0.

Official reference code on github uses `#if` so this change should be
uncontroversial.

Cleanup pymalloc:

* Rename _PyObject_Alloc() to pymalloc_alloc()
* Rename _PyObject_FreeImpl() to pymalloc_free()
* Rename _PyObject_Realloc() to pymalloc_realloc()
* pymalloc_alloc() and pymalloc_realloc() don't fallback on the raw
  allocator anymore, it now must be done by the caller
* Add "success" and "failed" labels to pymalloc_alloc() and
  pymalloc_free()
* pymalloc_alloc() and pymalloc_free() don't update
  num_allocated_blocks anymore: it should be done in the caller
* _PyObject_Calloc() is now responsible to fill the memory block
  allocated by pymalloc with zeros
* Simplify pymalloc_alloc() prototype
* _PyObject_Realloc() now calls _PyObject_Malloc() rather than
  calling directly pymalloc_alloc()

_PyMem_DebugRawAlloc() and _PyMem_DebugRawRealloc():

* document the layout of a memory block
* don't increase the serial number if the allocation failed
* check for integer overflow before computing the total size
* add a 'data' variable to make the code easiler to follow

test_setallocators() of _testcapimodule.c now test also the context.

Victor Stinner 93fd478231 faulthandler: use _PyTime_t rather than double for timeout (#4139)
Use the _PyTime_t type rather than double for the faulthandler
timeout in dump_traceback_later().

This change should fix the following Coverity warning:

CID 1420311:  Incorrect expression  (UNINTENDED_INTEGER_DIVISION)
Dividing integer expressions "9223372036854775807LL" and "1000LL",
and then converting the integer quotient to type "double". Any
remainder, or fractional part of the quotient, is ignored.

    if ((timeout * 1e6) >= (double) PY_TIMEOUT_MAX) {

The warning comes from (double)PY_TIMEOUT_MAX with:

    #define PY_TIMEOUT_MAX (PY_LLONG_MAX / 1000)

Nick Coghlan d7ac06126d bpo-31845: Fix reading flags from environment (GH-4105)
The startup refactoring means command line settings
are now applied after settings are read from the
environment.

This updates the way command line settings are applied
to account for that, ensures more settings are first read
from the environment in _PyInitializeCore, and adds a
simple test case covering the flags that are easy to check.

Victor Stinner 850a18e03e bpo-30768: Recompute timeout on interrupted lock (GH-4103)
Fix the pthread+semaphore implementation of
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed() when called with timeout > 0 and
intr_flag=0: recompute the timeout if sem_timedwait() is interrupted
by a signal (EINTR).

See also the PEP 475.

The pthread implementation of PyThread_acquire_lock() now fails with
a fatal error if the timeout is larger than PY_TIMEOUT_MAX, as done
in the Windows implementation.

The check prevents any risk of overflow in PyThread_acquire_lock().

Add also PY_DWORD_MAX constant.

Michał Górny 1aa00ff383 fixes bpo-31834: Use optimized code for BLAKE2 only with SSSE3+ (#4066)
Rework the code choosing BLAKE2 code paths from using the optimized
variant on all x86_64 machines to using it when SSSE3 or better
supported instructions sets are available.

Firstly, this solves the problem of using pure SSE2 code path on x86_64
machines. As reported in the bug, this code is slower than the reference
code on all tested x86_64 machines. Furthermore, on Athlon64 that lacks
SSSE3, it is even 2.5 times slower than the reference code! Checking
for SSSE3 therefore ensures that the optimized implementation will only
be used when it has a chance of performing better.

Secondly, this makes it possible to use SSSE3+ optimizations on 32-bit
x86 systems. This allows for even 2 times speed gain on modern 32-bit
x86 systems (tested in a 32-bit chroot).

Neil Schemenauer 0a1ff24acf bpo-17852: Maintain a list of BufferedWriter objects. Flush them on exit. (#3372)
* Maintain a list of BufferedWriter objects.  Flush them on exit.

In Python 3, the buffer and the underlying file object are separate
and so the order in which objects are finalized matters.  This is
unlike Python 2 where the file and buffer were a single object and
finalization was done for both at the same time.  In Python 3, if
the file is finalized and closed before the buffer then the data in
the buffer is lost.

This change adds a doubly linked list of open file buffers.  An atexit
hook ensures they are flushed before proceeding with interpreter
shutdown.  This is addition does not remove the need to properly close
files as there are other reasons why buffered data could get lost during
finalization.

Initial patch by Armin Rigo.

* Use weakref.WeakSet instead of WeakKeyDictionary.

* Simplify buffered double-linked list types.

* In _flush_all_writers(), suppress errors from flush().

* Remove NEWS entry, use blurb.

* Take more care when flushing file buffers from atexit.

The previous implementation was not careful enough to avoid
causing issues in multi-threaded cases.  Check for buf->ok
and buf->finalizing before actually doing the flush.  Also,
increase the refcnt to ensure the object does not disappear.

* bpo-29136: Add TLS 1.3 support

TLS 1.3 introduces a new, distinct set of cipher suites. The TLS 1.3
cipher suites don't overlap with cipher suites from TLS 1.2 and earlier.
Since Python sets its own set of permitted ciphers, TLS 1.3 handshake
will fail as soon as OpenSSL 1.1.1 is released. Let's enable the common
AES-GCM and ChaCha20 suites.

Additionally the flag OP_NO_TLSv1_3 is added. It defaults to 0 (no op) with
OpenSSL prior to 1.1.1. This allows applications to opt-out from TLS 1.3
now.

Devin Jeanpierre c5bace2bf7 bpo-29505: Add fuzz tests for float(str), int(str), unicode(str) (#2878)
Add basic fuzz tests for a few common builtin functions.

This is an easy place to start, and these functions are probably safe.
We'll want to add more fuzz tests later.  Lets bootstrap using these.

While the fuzz tests are included in CPython and compiled / tested on a
very basic level inside CPython itself, the actual fuzzing happens as
part of oss-fuzz (https://github.com/google/oss-fuzz). The reason to
include the tests in CPython is to make sure that they're maintained
as part of the CPython project, especially when (as some eventually
will) they use internal implementation details in the test.

(This will be necessary sometimes because e.g. the fuzz test should
never enter Python's interpreter loop, whereas some APIs only expose
themselves publicly as Python functions.)

This particular set of changes is part of testing Python's builtins,
tracked internally at Google by b/37562550.

The _xxtestfuzz module that this change adds need not be shipped with binary distributions of Python.

The ssl and hashlib modules now call OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() on
OpenSSL < 1.1.0. The function detects CPU features and enables optimizations
on some CPU architectures such as POWER8. Patch is based on research from

Neil Schemenauer e38d12ed34 bpo-17852: Maintain a list of BufferedWriter objects. Flush them on exit. (#1908)
* Maintain a list of BufferedWriter objects.  Flush them on exit.

In Python 3, the buffer and the underlying file object are separate
and so the order in which objects are finalized matters.  This is
unlike Python 2 where the file and buffer were a single object and
finalization was done for both at the same time.  In Python 3, if
the file is finalized and closed before the buffer then the data in
the buffer is lost.

This change adds a doubly linked list of open file buffers.  An atexit
hook ensures they are flushed before proceeding with interpreter
shutdown.  This is addition does not remove the need to properly close
files as there are other reasons why buffered data could get lost during
finalization.

Initial patch by Armin Rigo.

* Use weakref.WeakSet instead of WeakKeyDictionary.

* Simplify buffered double-linked list types.

* In _flush_all_writers(), suppress errors from flush().

* Remove NEWS entry, use blurb.
