* Added new opcode END_ASYNC_FOR.
* Setting global StopAsyncIteration no longer breaks "async for" loops.
* Jumping into an "async for" loop is now disabled.
* Jumping out of an "async for" loop no longer corrupts the stack.
* Simplify the compiler.
Multi-phase initialized modules allow m_traverse to be called while the
module is still being initialized, so module authors may need to account
for that.
The commit removes one unnecessary "if" clause in genobject.c. That "if" clause was masking un-awaited coroutines warnings just to make writing unittests more convenient.
Better account for single-line compound statements and
semi-colon separated statements when suggesting
Py3 replacements for Py2 print statements.
Initial patch by Nitish Chandra.
dictview_repr(): Use a Py_ReprEnter() / Py_ReprLeave() pair to check
for recursion, and produce "..." if so.
test_recursive_repr(): Check for the string rather than a
RecursionError. (Test cannot be any tighter as contents are
implementation-dependent.)
test_deeply_nested_repr(): Add new test, replacing the original
test_recursive_repr(). It checks that a RecursionError is raised in
the case of a non-recursive but deeply nested structure. (Very
similar to what test_repr_deep() in test/test_dict.py does for a
normal dict.)
OrderedDictTests: Add new test case, to test behavior on OrderedDict
instances containing their own values() or items().
* Add coro.cr_origin and sys.set_coroutine_origin_tracking_depth
* Use coroutine origin information in the unawaited coroutine warning
* Stop using set_coroutine_wrapper in asyncio debug mode
* In BaseEventLoop.set_debug, enable debugging in the correct thread
The suggested replacement for print statements previously failed to account
for leading whitespace and hence could end up including unwanted text in
the proposed call to the print builtin.
Patch by Sanyam Khurana.
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.
Modify locale.localeconv(), time.tzname, os.strerror() and other
functions to ignore the UTF-8 Mode: always use the current locale
encoding.
Changes:
* Add _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() and _Py_EncodeLocaleEx(). On decoding or
encoding error, they return the position of the error and an error
message which are used to raise Unicode errors in
PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() and PyUnicode_EncodeLocale().
* Replace _Py_DecodeCurrentLocale() with _Py_DecodeLocaleEx().
* PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() now uses _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() for all
cases, especially for the strict error handler.
* Add _Py_DecodeUTF8Ex(): return more information on decoding error
and supports the strict error handler.
* Rename _Py_EncodeUTF8_surrogateescape() to _Py_EncodeUTF8Ex().
* Replace _Py_EncodeCurrentLocale() with _Py_EncodeLocaleEx().
* Ignore the UTF-8 mode to encode/decode localeconv(), strerror()
and time zone name.
* Remove PyUnicode_DecodeLocale(), PyUnicode_DecodeLocaleAndSize()
and PyUnicode_EncodeLocale() now ignore the UTF-8 mode: always use
the "current" locale.
* Remove _PyUnicode_DecodeCurrentLocale(),
_PyUnicode_DecodeCurrentLocaleAndSize() and
_PyUnicode_EncodeCurrentLocale().
Add new fuctions ignoring the UTF-8 mode:
* _Py_DecodeCurrentLocale()
* _Py_EncodeCurrentLocale()
* _PyUnicode_DecodeCurrentLocaleAndSize()
* _PyUnicode_EncodeCurrentLocale()
Modify the readline module to use these functions.
Re-enable test_readline.test_nonascii().
Replace Py_EncodeLocale() with _Py_EncodeLocaleRaw() in:
* _Py_wfopen()
* _Py_wreadlink()
* _Py_wrealpath()
* _Py_wstat()
* pymain_open_filename()
These functions are called early during Python intialization, only
the RAW memory allocator must be used.
Py_EncodeLocale() now uses _Py_EncodeUTF8_surrogateescape(), instead
of using temporary unicode and bytes objects. So Py_EncodeLocale()
doesn't use the Python C API anymore.
* 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.
The error messages in `object.__new__` and `object.__init__` now aim
to point the user more directly at the name of the class being instantiated
in cases where they *haven't* been overridden (on the assumption that
the actual problem is a missing `__new__` or `__init__` definition in the
class body).
When they *have* been overridden, the errors still report themselves as
coming from object, on the assumption that the problem is with the call
up to the base class in the method implementation, rather than with the
way the constructor is being called.
Explicitly cast digits (Py_ssize_t) to double to fix the following
false-alarm warning from Coverity:
"fsize_z = digits * log_base_BASE[base] + 1;"
CID 1424951: Incorrect expression (UNINTENDED_INTEGER_DIVISION)
Dividing integer expressions "9223372036854775783UL" and "4UL", and
then converting the integer quotient to type "double". Any remainder,
or fractional part of the quotient, is ignored.
* Py_Main() now starts by reading Py_xxx configuration variables to
only work on its own private structure, and then later writes back
the configuration into these variables.
* Replace Py_GETENV() with pymain_get_env_var() which ignores empty
variables.
* Add _PyCoreConfig.dump_refs
* Add _PyCoreConfig.malloc_stats
* _PyObject_DebugMallocStats() is now responsible to check if debug
hooks are installed. The function returns 1 if stats were written,
or 0 if the hooks are disabled. Mark _PyMem_PymallocEnabled() as
static.
Previously, CO_NOFREE was set in the compiler, which meant
it could end up being set incorrectly when code objects
were created directly. Setting it in the constructor based
on freevars and cellvars ensures it is always accurate,
regardless of how the code object is defined.
* Rename PyPathConfig structure to _PyPathConfig and move it to
Include/internal/pystate.h
* Rename path_config to _Py_path_config
* _PyPathConfig: Rename program_name field to program_full_path
* Add assert(str != NULL); to _PyMem_RawWcsdup(), _PyMem_RawStrdup()
and _PyMem_Strdup().
* Rename calculate_path() to pathconfig_global_init(). The function
now does nothing if it's already initiallized.
* 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
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()
bpo-32096, bpo-30860: Partially revert the commit
2ebc5ce42a8a9e047e790aefbf9a94811569b2b6:

Objects/obmalloc.c
* Remove _PyObject_Initialize() and _PyMem_Initialize()
* Remove Include/internal/pymalloc.h
* Add test_capi.test_pre_initialization_api():
Make sure that it's possible to call Py_DecodeLocale(), and then call
Py_SetProgramName() with the decoded string, before Py_Initialize().
PyMem_RawMalloc() and Py_DecodeLocale() can be called again before
_PyRuntimeState_Init().

Py_Main() now handles two more -X options:
* -X showrefcount: new _PyCoreConfig.show_ref_count field
* -X showalloccount: new _PyCoreConfig.show_alloc_count field
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()
* 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)
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.
Few bytes at the begin and at the end of the reallocated blocks, as well
as the header and the trailer, now are erased before calling realloc()
in debug build. This will help to detect using or double freeing the
reallocated block.
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.
The concrete PyDict_* API is used to interact with PyInterpreterState.modules in a number of places. This isn't compatible with all dict subclasses, nor with other Mapping implementations. This patch switches the concrete API usage to the corresponding abstract API calls.
We also add a PyImport_GetModule() function (and some other helpers) to reduce a bunch of code duplication.
* Add Py_UNREACHABLE() as an alias to abort().
* Use Py_UNREACHABLE() instead of assert(0)
* Convert more unreachable code to use Py_UNREACHABLE()
* Document Py_UNREACHABLE() and a few other macros.
A bunch of code currently uses PyInterpreterState.modules directly instead of PyImport_GetModuleDict(). This complicates efforts to make changes relative to sys.modules. This patch switches to using PyImport_GetModuleDict() uniformly. Also, a number of related uses of sys.modules are updated for uniformity for the same reason.
Note that this code was already reviewed and merged as part of #1638. I reverted that and am now splitting it up into more focused parts.
PR #1638, for bpo-28411, causes problems in some (very) edge cases. Until that gets sorted out, we're reverting the merge. PR #3506, a fix on top of #1638, is also getting reverted.
* Drop warnoptions from PyInterpreterState.
* Drop xoptions from PyInterpreterState.
* Don't set warnoptions and _xoptions again.
* Decref after adding to sys.__dict__.
* Drop an unused macro.
* Check sys.xoptions *before* we delete it.
This undoes a853a8ba78 except for the pytime.c
parts. We want to continue to allow IEEE 754 doubles larger than FLT_MAX to be
rounded into finite floats. Tests were added to very this behavior.
* group the (stateful) runtime globals into various topical structs
* consolidate the topical structs under a single top-level _PyRuntimeState struct
* add a check-c-globals.py script that helps identify runtime globals
Other globals are excluded (see globals.txt and check-c-globals.py).
f_trace_lines: enable/disable line trace events
f_trace_opcodes: enable/disable opcode trace events
These are intended primarily for testing of the interpreter
itself, as they make it much easier to emulate signals
arriving at unfortunate times.
* group the (stateful) runtime globals into various topical structs
* consolidate the topical structs under a single top-level _PyRuntimeState struct
* add a check-c-globals.py script that helps identify runtime globals
Other globals are excluded (see globals.txt and check-c-globals.py).
* fixed OrderedDict.__init__ docstring re PEP 468
* tightened comment and mirrored to C impl
* added space after period per marco-buttu
* preserved substituted for stable
* drop references to Python 3.6 and PEP 468
Based on patch by Victor Stinner.
Add private C API function _PyUnicode_AsUnicode() which is similar to
PyUnicode_AsUnicode(), but checks for null characters.
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".
Error messages when pass keyword arguments to some builtins that
don't support keyword arguments contained double parenthesis: "()()".
The regression was introduced by bpo-30534.
Fix MemoryError caused by moving around code in PR #886; nbytes was sometimes used unitinitalized (in non-debug builds, when use_calloc was false and elsize was 0).
Make a non-Py_DEBUG, asserts-enabled build of CPython possible. This means
making sure helper functions are defined when NDEBUG is not defined, not
just when Py_DEBUG is defined.
Also fix a division-by-zero in obmalloc.c that went unnoticed because in Py_DEBUG mode, elsize is never zero.
* Add _PyObject_HasFastCall()
* partial_call() now avoids temporary tuple to pass positional
arguments if the callable supports the FASTCALL calling convention
for positional arguments.
* Fix also a performance regression in partial_call() if the callable
doesn't support FASTCALL.
PyEval_Call* APIs are not documented and they doesn't respect PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN.
So add comment block which recommends PyObject_Call* APIs to ceval.h.
This commit also changes PyEval_CallMethod and PyEval_CallFunction
implementation same to PyObject_CallMethod and PyObject_CallFunction
to reduce future maintenance cost. Optimization to avoid temporary
tuple are copied too.
PyEval_CallFunction(callable, "i", (int)i) now calls callable(i) instead of
raising TypeError. But accepting this edge case is backward compatible.

On PyMem_Realloc failure, _PyCode_SetExtra should free co_extra if
co_extra->ce_extras could not be allocated.
On PyMem_Realloc success, _PyCode_SetExtra should set all unused slots in

Issue #29507: Optimize slots calling Python methods. For Python methods, get
the unbound Python function and prepend arguments with self, rather than
calling the descriptor which creates a temporary PyMethodObject.
Add a new _PyObject_FastCall_Prepend() function used to call the unbound Python
method with self. It avoids the creation of a temporary tuple to pass
positional arguments.
Avoiding temporary PyMethodObject and avoiding temporary tuple makes Python
slots up to 1.46x faster. Microbenchmark on a __getitem__() method implemented
in Python:
Median +- std dev: 121 ns +- 5 ns -> 82.8 ns +- 1.0 ns: 1.46x faster (-31%)

Add a new cfunction_call() subfunction.
* *PyCFunction_*Call*() functions now call Py_EnterRecursiveCall().
* PyObject_Call() now calls directly _PyFunction_FastCallDict() and
PyCFunction_Call() to avoid calling Py_EnterRecursiveCall() twice per
function call
Decreased density gives better collision statistics (average of 2.5 probes in a
full table versus 3.0 previously) and fewer occurences of starting a second
possibly overlapping sequence of 10 linear probes. Makes resizes a little more
frequent but each with less work (fewer insertions and fewer collisions).
add_methods(), add_members(), and add_getset() used PyDict_SetItemString()
to register descriptor to the type's dict.
So descr_new() and PyDict_SetItemString() creates interned unicode from same

This patch takes interned unicode from descriptor, and use PyDict_SetItem()
instead of PyDict_SetItemString().

a macro if Py_LIMITED_API is not set or set to the value between 0x03050400
and 0x03060000 (not including) or 0x03060100 or higher. Added functions
PySlice_Unpack() and PySlice_AdjustIndices().
Issue #29311: dict.get() and dict.setdefault() methods now use Argument Clinic
to parse arguments. Their calling convention changes from METH_VARARGS to
METH_FASTCALL which avoids the creation of a temporary tuple.
The signature of docstrings is also enhanced. For example,
get(...)
becomes:
get(self, key, default=None, /)
Issue #29259: use a different case for METH_VARARGS and
METH_VARARGS|METH_KEYWORDS to avoid testing again flags to decide if keywords
should be checked or not.
Issue #29259. We had 3 versions of similar code:
* PyCFunction_Call()
* _PyCFunction_FastCallDict()
* _PyCFunction_FastCallKeywords()
PyCFunction_Call() now calls _PyCFunction_FastCallDict() to factorize the code.
Issue #29259:
* Move also the !PyErr_Occurred() assertion to the top, similar to
other functions.
* Fix also comment/error messages: the function was renamed to
_PyMethodDef_RawFastCallDict()
Issue #29259, #29263. methoddescr_call() creates a PyCFunction object, call it
and the destroy it. Add a new _PyMethodDef_RawFastCallDict() method to avoid
the temporary PyCFunction object.
Issue #29286. Run Argument Clinic to get the new faster METH_FASTCALL calling
convention for functions using "boring" positional arguments.
Manually fix _elementtree: _elementtree_XMLParser_doctype() must remain
consistent with the clinic code.
Issue #29259: Write fast path in _PyCFunction_FastCallKeywords() for
METH_FASTCALL, avoid the creation of a temporary dictionary for keyword
arguments.
Cleanup also _PyCFunction_FastCallDict():
* Don't dereference func before checking that it's not NULL
* Move code to raise the "no keyword argument" exception into a new
no_keyword_error label.
Update python-gdb.py for the change.
* Indent versionchanged at method level, not class level
* Mark up ``--help`` to avoid generating an en dash
* Use forward slash in Unix command line with a dollar sign ($) prompt
Issue #29234: Inlining _PyStack_AsTuple() into callers increases their stack
consumption, Disable inlining to optimize the stack consumption.
Add _Py_NO_INLINE: use __attribute__((noinline)) of GCC and Clang.
It reduces the stack consumption, bytes per call, before => after:
test_python_call: 1040 => 976 (-64 B)
test_python_getitem: 976 => 912 (-64 B)
test_python_iterator: 1120 => 1056 (-64 B)
=> total: 3136 => 2944 (- 192 B)
Issue #29233: Replace the inefficient _PyObject_VaCallFunctionObjArgs() with
_PyObject_FastCall() in call_method() and call_maybe().
Only a few functions call call_method() and call it with a fixed number of
arguments. Avoid the complex and expensive _PyObject_VaCallFunctionObjArgs()
function, replace it with an array allocated on the stack with the exact number
of argumlents.
It reduces the stack consumption, bytes per call, before => after:
test_python_call: 1168 => 1152 (-16 B)
test_python_getitem: 1344 => 1008 (-336 B)
test_python_iterator: 1568 => 1232 (-336 B)
Remove the _PyObject_VaCallFunctionObjArgs() function which became useless.
Rename it to object_vacall() and make it private.
function_call() now simply calls _PyFunction_FastCallDict().
_PyFunction_FastCallDict() is more efficient: it contains fast paths for the
common case (optimized code object and no keyword argument).
Issue #28870: Add a new _PY_FASTCALL_SMALL_STACK constant, size of "small
stacks" allocated on the C stack to pass positional arguments to
_PyObject_FastCall().
_PyObject_Call_Prepend() now uses a small stack of 5 arguments (40 bytes)
instead of 8 (64 bytes), since it is modified to use _PY_FASTCALL_SMALL_STACK.
Special thanks to INADA Naoki for pushing the patch through
the last mile, Serhiy Storchaka for reviewing the code, and to
Victor Stinner for suggesting the idea (originally implemented
in the PyPy project).
The PEP 523 modified PyEval_EvalFrameEx(): it's now an indirection to
interp->eval_frame().
Inline the call in performance critical code. Leave PyEval_EvalFrame()
unchanged, this function is only kept for backward compatibility.
Issue #28915: Replace PyObject_CallFunction() with
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs() when the format string was only made of "O"
formats, PyObject* arguments.
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs() avoids the creation of a temporary tuple and
doesn't have to parse a format string.
Issue #28915: Replace _PyObject_CallMethodId() with
_PyObject_CallMethodIdObjArgs() when the format string only use the format 'O'
for objects, like "(O)".
_PyObject_CallMethodIdObjArgs() avoids the code to parse a format string and
avoids the creation of a temporary tuple.
Issue #28915: Use _Py_VaBuildStack() to build a C array of PyObject* and then
use _PyObject_FastCall().
The function has a special case if the stack only contains one parameter and
the parameter is a tuple: "unpack" the tuple of arguments in this case.
Issue #28838: Rename parameters of the "calls" functions of the Python C API.
* Rename 'callable_object' and 'func' to 'callable': any Python callable object
is accepted, not only Python functions
* Rename 'method' and 'nameid' to 'name' (method name)
* Rename 'o' to 'obj'
* Move, fix and update documentation of PyObject_CallXXX() functions
in abstract.h
* Update also the documentaton of the C API (update parameter names)
Modify type_setattro() to call directly _PyObject_GenericSetAttrWithDict()
instead of PyObject_GenericSetAttr().
PyObject_GenericSetAttr() is a thin wrapper to
_PyObject_GenericSetAttrWithDict().
Replace
_PyObject_CallArg1(func, arg)
with
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(func, arg, NULL)
Using the _PyObject_CallArg1() macro increases the usage of the C stack, which
was unexpected and unwanted. PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs() doesn't have this
issue.
Handling zero-argument super() in __init_subclass__ and
__set_name__ involved moving __class__ initialisation to
type.__new__. This requires cooperation from custom
metaclasses to ensure that the new __classcell__ entry
is passed along appropriately.
The initial implementation of that change resulted in abruptly
broken zero-argument super() support in metaclasses that didn't
adhere to the new requirements (such as Django's metaclass for
Model definitions).
The updated approach adopted here instead emits a deprecation
warning for those cases, and makes them work the same way they
did in Python 3.5.
This patch also improves the related class machinery documentation
to cover these details and to include more reader-friendly
cross-references and index entries.
Issue #28858: The change b9c9691c72c5 introduced a regression. It seems like
_PyObject_CallArg1() uses more stack memory than
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs().
Replace
PyObject_CallFunction(func, "O", arg)
and
PyObject_CallFunction(func, "O", arg, NULL)
with
_PyObject_CallArg1(func, arg)
Replace
PyObject_CallFunction(func, NULL)
with
_PyObject_CallNoArg(func)
_PyObject_CallNoArg() and _PyObject_CallArg1() are simpler and don't allocate
memory on the C stack.
* PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(func, NULL) => _PyObject_CallNoArg(func)
* PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(func, arg, NULL) => _PyObject_CallArg1(func, arg)
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs() allocates 40 bytes on the C stack and requires
extra work to "parse" C arguments to build a C array of PyObject*.
_PyObject_CallNoArg() and _PyObject_CallArg1() are simpler and don't allocate
memory on the C stack.
This change is part of the fastcall project. The change on listsort() is
related to the issue #23507.
* Callable object: callable, o, callable_object => func
* Object for method calls: o => obj
* Method name: name or nameid => method
Cleanup also the C code:
* Don't initialize variables to NULL if they are not used before their first
assignement
* Add braces for readability
