Martin v. Löwis de157cc5bc Issue #14200: Add benchmark results to text flow. 2012-03-06 08:42:17 +01:00
Antoine Pitrou bdb1cf1ca5 Issue #12328: Fix multiprocessing's use of overlapped I/O on Windows.
Also, add a multiprocessing.connection.wait(rlist, timeout=None) function
for polling multiple objects at once.  Patch by sbt.

Complete changelist from sbt's patch:

* Adds a wait(rlist, timeout=None) function for polling multiple
  objects at once.  On Unix this is just a wrapper for
  select(rlist, [], [], timeout=None).

* Removes use of the SentinelReady exception and the sentinels argument
  to certain methods.  concurrent.futures.process has been changed to
  use wait() instead of SentinelReady.

* Fixes bugs concerning PipeConnection.poll() and messages of zero
  length.

* Fixes PipeListener.accept() to call ConnectNamedPipe() with
  overlapped=True.

* Fixes Queue.empty() and SimpleQueue.empty() so that they are
  threadsafe on Windows.

* Now PipeConnection.poll() and wait() will not modify the pipe except
  possibly by consuming a zero length message.  (Previously poll()
  could consume a partial message.)

* All of multiprocesing's pipe related blocking functions/methods are
  now interruptible by SIGINT on Windows.

Stefan Krah 9a2d99e28a - Issue #10181: New memoryview implementation fixes multiple ownership
and lifetime issues of dynamically allocated Py_buffer members (#9990)
  as well as crashes (#8305, #7433). Many new features have been added
  (See whatsnew/3.3), and the documentation has been updated extensively.
  The ndarray test object from _testbuffer.c implements all aspects of
  PEP-3118, so further development towards the complete implementation
  of the PEP can proceed in a test-driven manner.

  Thanks to Nick Coghlan, Antoine Pitrou and Pauli Virtanen for review
  and many ideas.

- Issue #12834: Fix incorrect results of memoryview.tobytes() for
  non-contiguous arrays.

- Issue #5231: Introduce memoryview.cast() method that allows changing
  format and shape without making a copy of the underlying memory.

Brian Curtin 10dda6e029 Add a hint that CSD == Service Pack.
People searcing for the way to get a "service pack" will never find that we
provide it here, and people that find this function won't know what CSD is
until they run the function. On top of this, they won't know what the value
means unless they really have a service pack installed.

CSD, or Customer Service Diagnostics, is apparently no longer used, and was
rarely used term at that. Most references to it online are from
universities making Windows 2000 and XP service packs available to students.
