The debug memory api now keeps track of which external API (PyMem_* or PyObject_*) was used to allocate each block and treats any API violation as an error. Added separate _PyMem_DebugMalloc functions for the Py_Mem API instead of having it use the _PyObject_DebugMalloc functions.

Fix issue #1590864, multiple threads and fork() can cause deadlocks, by
acquiring the import lock around fork() calls. This prevents other threads
from having that lock while the fork happens, and is the recommended way of
dealing with such issues. There are two other locks we care about, the GIL
and the Thread Local Storage lock. The GIL is obviously held when calling
Python functions like os.fork(), and the TLS lock is explicitly reallocated
instead, while also deleting now-orphaned TLS data.
This only fixes calls to os.fork(), not extension modules or embedding
programs calling C's fork() directly. Solving that requires a new set of API
functions, and possibly a rewrite of the Python/thread_*.c mess. Add a
warning explaining the problem to the documentation in the mean time.
This also changes behaviour a little on AIX. Before, AIX (but only AIX) was
getting the import lock reallocated, seemingly to avoid this very same
problem. This is not the right approach, because the import lock is a
re-entrant one, and reallocating would do the wrong thing when forking while
holding the import lock.
Will backport to 2.6, minus the tiny AIX behaviour change.

The construct is transformed into multiple With AST nodes so that
there should be no problems with the semantics.
lnotab-based tracing is very complicated and isn't documented very well. There
were at least 3 comment blocks purporting to document co_lnotab, and none did a
very good job. This patch unifies them into Objects/lnotab_notes.txt which
tries to completely capture the current state of affairs.
I also discovered that we've attached 2 layers of patches to the basic tracing
scheme. The first layer avoids jumping to instructions that don't start a line,
to avoid problems in if statements and while loops. The second layer
discovered that jumps backward do need to trace at instructions that don't
start a line, so it added extra lnotab entries for 'while' and 'for' loops, and
added a special case for backward jumps within the same line. I replaced these
patches by just treating forward and backward jumps differently.
Most uses of PyCode_Addr2Line
(http://www.google.com/codesearch?q=PyCode_Addr2Line) are just trying to get
the line number of a specified frame, but there's no way to do that directly.
Forcing people to go through the code object makes them know more about the
guts of the interpreter than they should need.
The remaining uses of PyCode_Addr2Line seem to be getting the line from a
traceback (for example,
http://www.google.com/codesearch/p?hl=en#u_9_nDrchrw/pygame-1.7.1release/src/base.c&q=PyCode_Addr2Line),
which is replaced by the tb_lineno field. So we may be able to deprecate
PyCode_Addr2Line entirely for external use.
Most uses of PyCode_New found by http://www.google.com/codesearch?q=PyCode_New
are trying to build an empty code object, usually to put it in a dummy frame
object. This patch adds a PyCode_NewEmpty wrapper which lets the user specify
just the filename, function name, and first line number, instead of also
requiring lots of code internals.
If anyone wants to clean up the documentation, feel free. It's my first documentation foray, and it's not that great.
Will port to py3k with a different strategy.
int, long, and float __format__(), and it keeps their implementation
in sync with py3k.
Also added PyOS_double_to_string. This is the "fallback" version
that's also available in trunk, and should be kept in sync with that
code. I'll add an issue to document PyOS_double_to_string in the C
API.
There are many internal cleanups. Externally visible changes include:
- Implement PEP 378, Format Specifier for Thousands Separator, for
floats, ints, and longs.
- Issue #5515: 'n' formatting for ints, longs, and floats handles
leading zero formatting poorly.
- Issue #5772: For float.__format__, don't add a trailing ".0" if
we're using no type code and we have an exponent.
untrackable objects are not tracked by the garbage collector. This can
reduce the size of collections and therefore the garbage collection overhead
on long-running programs, depending on their particular use of datatypes.
(trivia: this makes the "binary_trees" benchmark from the Computer Language
Shootout 40% faster)
POP_JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE} and JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE}_OR_POP. This avoids executing
a POP_TOP on each conditional and sometimes allows the peephole optimizer to
skip a JUMP_ABSOLUTE entirely. It speeds up list comprehensions significantly.
and cleanups in Objects/longobject.c. The most significant change is that
longs now use less memory: average savings are 2 bytes per long on 32-bit
systems and 6 bytes per long on 64-bit systems. (This memory saving already
exists in py3k.)

Added checks for integer overflows, contributed by Google. Some are
only available if asserts are left in the code, in cases where they
can't be triggered from Python code.
This patch adds a new configure argument on OSX:
--with-universal-archs=[32-bit|64-bit|all]
When used with the --enable-universalsdk option this controls which
CPU architectures are includes in the framework. The default is 32-bit,
meaning i386 and ppc. The most useful alternative is 'all', which includes
all 4 CPU architectures supported by MacOS X (i386, ppc, x86_64 and ppc64).
This includes limited support for the Carbon bindings in 64-bit mode as well,
limited because (a) I haven't done extensive testing and (b) a large portion
of the Carbon API's aren't available in 64-bit mode anyway.
I've also duplicated a feature of Apple's build of python: setting the
environment variable 'ARCHFLAGS' controls the '-arch' flags used for building
extensions using distutils.
renamed Include/bytesobject.h to Include/bytearrayobject.h
renamed Include/stringobject.h to Include/bytesobject.h
added Include/stringobject.h with aliases
Adds 'n' as a format specifier for integers, to mirror the same
specifier which is already available for floats. 'n' is the same as
'd', but inserts the current locale-specific thousands grouping.
I added this as a stringlib function, but it's only used by str type,
not unicode. This is because of an implementation detail in
unicode.format(), which does its own str->unicode conversion. But the
unicode version will be needed in 3.0, and it may be needed by other
code eventually in 2.6 (maybe decimal?), so I left it as a stringlib
implementation. As long as the unicode version isn't instantiated,
there's no overhead for this.
The patch also adds acosh, asinh, atanh, log1p and copysign to all platforms. Finally it fixes differences between platforms like different results or exceptions for edge cases. Have fun :)
'warnings' code in places where it was previously not possible (e.g., the
parser). It could also potentially lead to a speed-up in interpreter start-up

Python version in key places.
Closes issue #1631171.
close() will now raise an IOError if any operations on the file object

Most code was written by Antoine Pitrou (pitrou). Additional testing,
documentation and test suite cleanup done by me (gregory.p.smith).
Fixes issue 815646 and 595601 (as well as many other bugs and
references to this problem dating back to the dawn of Python).
Rather than sprinkle casts throughout the code, change Py_CHARMASK to
always cast it's result to an unsigned char. This should ensure we
do the right thing when accessing an array with the result.
The new PyParser_*Ex() functions are based on Neal's suggestion and initial patch. The new __future__ feature makes all '' and r'' unicode strings. b'' and br'' stay (byte) strings.

This work is substantially Anthony Baxter's, from issue
1633807. I just freshened it, made a few minor tweaks,

which forbids constructing types that have it set. The effect is to speed
./python.exe -m timeit -s 'import abc' -s 'class Foo(object): __metaclass__ = abc.ABCMeta' 'Foo()'
up from 2.5us to 0.201us. This fixes issue 1762.
Highlights:
- Adding PyObject_Format.
- Adding string.Format class.
- Adding __format__ for str, unicode, int, long, float, datetime.
- Adding builtin format.
- Adding ''.format and u''.format.
- str/unicode fixups for formatters.
The files in Objects/stringlib that implement PEP 3101 (stringdefs.h,
unicodedefs.h, formatter.h, string_format.h) are identical in trunk
and py3k. Any changes from here on should be made to trunk, and
changes will propogate to py3k).
_PyLong_Format. In longobject.c, changed long_format to
_PyLong_Format. In intobject.c, changed uses of PyOS_snprintf to
_PyInt_Format instead.
_PyLong_Format is similar to py3k's routine of the same name, except
it has 2 additional parameters: addL and newstyle. addL was existing
in long_format, and controls adding the trailing "L". This is
unneeded in py3k. newstyle is used to control whether octal prepends
"0" (the pre-2.6 style), or "0o" (the 3.0 sytle).
PyNumber_ToBase is needed for PEP 3127 (Integer Literal Support and
Syntax) and PEP 3101 (Advanced String Formatting).
This changeset does not need merging into py3k.
I implemented the function sys._compact_freelists() and C API functions PyInt_/PyFloat_CompactFreeList() to compact the pre-allocated blocks of ints and floats. They allow the user to reduce the memory usage of a Python process that deals with lots of numbers.
The patch also renames sys._cleartypecache to sys._clear_type_cache
Add PyFrozenSet_Check(), which was not needed before; The list of Py*Set_Check* macros seems to be complete now.
Add missing NEWS entries about all this.
First chapter of the Python 3.0 io framework back port: _fileio
The next step depends on a working bytearray type which itself depends on a backport of the nwe buffer API.
Added the macros PyModule_AddIntMacro and PyModule_AddStringMacro. They shorten PyModule_AddIntConstant(m, "AF_INET", AF_INET) to PyModule_AddIntMacro(m, AF_INET)
This adds signal.set_wakeup_fd(fd) which sets a file descriptor to
which a zero byte will be written whenever a C exception handler runs.
I added a simple C API as well, PySignal_SetWakeupFd(fd).
