It is now allowed to add new fields at the end of the PyTypeObject struct without having to allocate a dedicated compatibility flag in tp_flags.
This will reduce the risk of running out of bits in the 32-bit tp_flags value.
* Add _PyInitError functions:
* _PyInitError_Ok()
* _PyInitError_Error()
* _PyInitError_NoMemory()
* _PyInitError_Exit()
* _PyInitError_IsError()
* _PyInitError_IsExit()
* _PyInitError_Failed()
* frozenmain.c and _testembed.c now use functions rather than macros.
* Move _Py_INIT_xxx() macros to the internal API.
* Move _PyWstrList_INIT macro to the internal API.
Add a new _PyObject_CheckConsistency() function which can be used to
help debugging. The function is available in release mode.
Add a 'check_content' parameter to _PyDict_CheckConsistency().
Modify CLEANBYTE, DEADDYTE and FORBIDDENBYTE constants: use 0xCD,
0xDD and 0xFD, rather than 0xCB, 0xBB and 0xFB, to use the same byte
patterns than Windows CRT debug malloc() and free().
Replace _PyMem_IsFreed() function with _PyMem_IsPtrFreed() inline
function. The function is now way more efficient, it became a simple
comparison on integers, rather than a short loop. It detects also
uninitialized bytes and "forbidden bytes" filled by debug hooks
on memory allocators.
Add unit tests on _PyObject_IsFreed().
* Revert "bpo-36097: Use only public C-API in the_xxsubinterpreters module (adding as necessary). (#12003)"
This reverts commit bcfa450f21.
* Revert "bpo-33608: Simplify ceval's DISPATCH by hoisting eval_breaker ahead of time. (gh-12062)"
This reverts commit bda918bf65.
* Revert "bpo-33608: Use _Py_AddPendingCall() in _PyCrossInterpreterData_Release(). (gh-12024)"
This reverts commit b05b711a2c.
* Revert "bpo-33608: Factor out a private, per-interpreter _Py_AddPendingCall(). (GH-11617)"
This reverts commit ef4ac967e2.
* Split _Py_InitializeCore_impl() into subfunctions: add multiple pycore_init_xxx() functions
* Preliminary sys.stderr is now set earlier to get an usable
sys.stderr ealier.
* Move code into _Py_Initialize_ReconfigureCore() to be able to call
it from _Py_InitializeCore().
* Split _PyExc_Init(): create a new _PyBuiltins_AddExceptions()
function.
* Call _PyExc_Init() earlier in _Py_InitializeCore_impl()
and new_interpreter() to get working exceptions earlier.
* _Py_ReadyTypes() now returns _PyInitError rather than calling
Py_FatalError().
* Misc code cleanup
If _PyObject_Dump() detects that the object is freed, don't try to
dump it (exit immediately).
Enhance also _PyObject_IsFreed(): it now detects if the pointer
itself looks like freed memory.
If Py_BUILD_CORE is defined, the PyThreadState_GET() macro access
_PyRuntime which comes from the internal pycore_state.h header.
Public headers must not require internal headers.
Move PyThreadState_GET() and _PyInterpreterState_GET_UNSAFE() from
Include/pystate.h to Include/internal/pycore_state.h, and rename
PyThreadState_GET() to _PyThreadState_GET() there.
The PyThreadState_GET() macro of pystate.h is now redefined when
pycore_state.h is included, to use the fast _PyThreadState_GET().
Changes:
* Add _PyThreadState_GET() macro
* Replace "PyThreadState_GET()->interp" with
_PyInterpreterState_GET_UNSAFE()
* Replace PyThreadState_GET() with _PyThreadState_GET() in internal C
files (compiled with Py_BUILD_CORE defined), but keep
PyThreadState_GET() in the public header files.
* _testcapimodule.c: replace PyThreadState_GET() with
PyThreadState_Get(); the module is not compiled with Py_BUILD_CORE
defined.
* pycore_state.h now requires Py_BUILD_CORE to be defined.
Configuring python with ./configure --with-pydebug CFLAGS="-D COUNT_ALLOCS -O0"
makes "make smelly" fail as some symbols were being exported without the "Py_" or
"_Py" prefixes.
Changes:
* Add _PyObject_AssertFailed() function.
* Add _PyObject_ASSERT() and _PyObject_ASSERT_WITH_MSG() macros.
* gc_decref(): replace assert() with _PyObject_ASSERT_WITH_MSG() to
dump the faulty object if the assertion fails.
_PyObject_AssertFailed() calls:
* _PyMem_DumpTraceback(): try to log the traceback where the object
memory has been allocated if tracemalloc is enabled.
* _PyObject_Dump(): log repr(obj).
* Py_FatalError(): log the current Python traceback.
_PyObject_AssertFailed() uses _PyObject_IsFreed() heuristic to check
if the object memory has been freed by a debug hook on Python memory
allocators.

* Add Py_STATIC_INLINE() macro to declare a "static inline" function.
If the compiler supports it, try to always inline the function even if no
optimization level was specified.
* Modify pydtrace.h to use Py_STATIC_INLINE() when WITH_DTRACE is
not defined.
* Add an unit test on Py_DECREF() to make sure that
_Py_NegativeRefcount() reports the correct filename.
tracemalloc now tries to update the traceback when an object is
reused from a "free list" (optimization for faster object creation,
used by the builtin list type for example).
Changes:
* Add _PyTraceMalloc_NewReference() function which tries to update
the Python traceback of a Python object.
* _Py_NewReference() now calls _PyTraceMalloc_NewReference().
* Add an unit test.
_PyObject_Dump() now uses an heuristic to check if the object memory
has been freed: log "<freed object>" in that case.
The heuristic rely on the debug hooks on Python memory allocators
which fills the memory with DEADBYTE (0xDB) when memory is
deallocated. Use PYTHONMALLOC=debug to always enable these debug
hooks.
METH_NOARGS functions need only a single argument but they are cast
into a PyCFunction, which takes two arguments. This triggers an
invalid function cast warning in gcc8 due to the argument mismatch.
Fix this by adding a dummy unused argument.
AttributeError was raised always when attribute is not found.
This commit skip raising AttributeError when `tp_getattro` is `PyObject_GenericGetAttr`.
It makes hasattr() and getattr() about 4x faster when attribute is not found.
Py_Main() now handles two more -X options:
* -X showrefcount: new _PyCoreConfig.show_ref_count field
* -X showalloccount: new _PyCoreConfig.show_alloc_count field
