This makes performance better and produces shorter pickles. This change is backwards compatible up to the oldest currently supported version of Python (3.4).

* The SSLSocket is no longer implemented on top of SSLObject to
avoid an extra level of indirection.
* Owner and session are now handled in the internal constructor.
* _ssl._SSLSocket now uses the same method names as SSLSocket and
SSLObject.
* Channel binding type check is now handled in C code. Channel binding
is always available.
The patch also changes the signature of SSLObject.__init__(). In my
opinion it's fine. A SSLObject is not a user-constructable object.
SSLContext.wrap_bio() is the only valid factory.
Previously, the ssl module stored international domain names (IDNs)
as U-labels. This is problematic for a number of reasons -- for
example, it made it impossible for users to use a different version
of IDNA than the one built into Python.
After this change, we always convert to A-labels as soon as possible,
and use them for all internal processing. In particular, server_hostname
attribute is now an A-label, and on the server side there's a new
sni_callback that receives the SNI servername as an A-label rather than
a U-label.
The hmac module now has hmac.digest(), which provides an optimized HMAC
digest for short messages. hmac.digest() is up to three times faster
than hmac.HMAC().digest().

Specifically, it's not possible to subclass Task/Future classes
and override the following methods:
* Future._schedule_callbacks
* Task._step
* Task._wakeup
* Use wider types (int => Py_ssize_t) to avoid integer overflows.
* Fix gc.get_freeze_count(): use Py_ssize_t type rather than int, since gc_list_size() returns a Py_ssize_t.
Even though Python marks any handles it opens as non-inheritable there
is still a race when using `subprocess.Popen` since creating a process
with redirected stdio requires temporarily creating inheritable handles.
By implementing support for `subprocess.Popen(close_fds=True)` we fix
this race.
In order to implement this we use PROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_HANDLE_LIST
which is available since Windows Vista. Which allows to pass an explicit
list of handles to inherit when creating a process.
This commit also adds `STARTUPINFO.lpAttributeList["handle_list"]`
which can be used to control PROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_HANDLE_LIST
directly.
asyncio.get_event_loop(), and, subsequently asyncio._get_running_loop()
are one of the most frequently executed functions in asyncio. They also
can't be sped up by third-party event loops like uvloop.
When implemented in C they become 4x faster.
* Add -X utf8 command line option, PYTHONUTF8 environment variable
and a new sys.flags.utf8_mode flag.
* If the LC_CTYPE locale is "C" at startup: enable automatically the
UTF-8 mode.
* Add _winapi.GetACP(). encodings._alias_mbcs() now calls
_winapi.GetACP() to get the ANSI code page
* locale.getpreferredencoding() now returns 'UTF-8' in the UTF-8
mode. As a side effect, open() now uses the UTF-8 encoding by
default in this mode.
* Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now use the UTF-8 encoding
in the UTF-8 Mode.
* Update subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle -X utf8
* Skip some tests relying on the current locale if the UTF-8 mode is
enabled.
* Add test_utf8mode.py.
* _Py_DecodeUTF8_surrogateescape() gets a new optional parameter to
return also the length (number of wide characters).
* pymain_get_global_config() and pymain_set_global_config() now
always copy flag values, rather than only copying if the new value
is greater than the old value.
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.
When a single .c file contains several functions and/or methods with
the same name, a safety _METHODDEF #define statement is generated
only for one of them.
This fixes the bug by using the full name of the function to avoid
duplicates rather than just the name.
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.
Freeze all the objects tracked by gc - move them to a permanent generation
and ignore all the future collections. This can be used before a POSIX
fork() call to make the gc copy-on-write friendly or to speed up collection.
* Change NPN detection:
Version breakdown, support disabled (pre-patch/post-patch):
- pre-1.0.1: OPENSSL_NPN_NEGOTIATED will not be defined -> False/False
- 1.0.1 and 1.0.2: OPENSSL_NPN_NEGOTIATED will not be defined ->
False/False
- 1.1.0+: OPENSSL_NPN_NEGOTIATED will be defined and
OPENSSL_NO_NEXTPROTONEG will be defined -> True/False
Version breakdown support enabled (pre-patch/post-patch):
- pre-1.0.1: OPENSSL_NPN_NEGOTIATED will not be defined -> False/False
- 1.0.1 and 1.0.2: OPENSSL_NPN_NEGOTIATED will be defined and
OPENSSL_NO_NEXTPROTONEG will not be defined -> True/True
- 1.1.0+: OPENSSL_NPN_NEGOTIATED will be defined and
OPENSSL_NO_NEXTPROTONEG will not be defined -> True/True
* Refine NPN guard:
- If NPN is disabled, but ALPN is available we need our callback
- Make clinic's ssl behave the same way
This created a working ssl module for me, with NPN disabled and ALPN
enabled for OpenSSL 1.1.0f.
Concerns to address:
The initial commit for NPN support into OpenSSL [1], had the
OPENSSL_NPN_* variables defined inside the OPENSSL_NO_NEXTPROTONEG
guard. The question is if that ever made it into a release.
This would need an ugly hack, something like:
#if defined(OPENSSL_NO_NEXTPROTONEG) && \
!defined(OPENSSL_NPN_NEGOTIATED)
# define OPENSSL_NPN_UNSUPPORTED 0
# define OPENSSL_NPN_NEGOTIATED 1
# define OPENSSL_NPN_NO_OVERLAP 2
#endif

The function '_PyArg_ParseStack()' and
'_PyArg_UnpackStack' were failing (with error
"XXX() takes Y argument (Z given)") before
the function '_PyArg_NoStackKeywords()' was called.
Thus, the latter did not raise its more meaningful
error : "XXX() takes no keyword arguments".
