async and await keywords has been merged into upstream, but they are
all missing in the lexical analysis docs. This change adds them to the
appropriate keywords section in documentation.
Py_UNUSED has a public name, and is used in the wild outside CPython,
but was not documented. Rectify that.
The macro was added in bpo-19976 and referenced in bpo-26179.
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.
blocksize was hardcoded to 8192, preventing efficient upload when using
file-like body. Add blocksize argument to __init__, so users can
configure the blocksize to fit their needs.
I tested this uploading data from /dev/zero to a web server dropping the
received data, to test the overhead of the HTTPConnection.send() with a
file-like object.
Here is an example 10g upload with the default buffer size (8192):
$ time ~/src/cpython/release/python upload-httplib.py 10 https://localhost:8000/
Uploaded 10.00g in 17.53 seconds (584.00m/s)
real 0m17.574s
user 0m8.887s
sys 0m5.971s
Same with 512k blocksize:
$ time ~/src/cpython/release/python upload-httplib.py 10 https://localhost:8000/
Uploaded 10.00g in 6.60 seconds (1551.15m/s)
real 0m6.641s
user 0m3.426s
sys 0m2.162s
In real world usage the difference will be smaller, depending on the
local and remote storage and the network.

While technically a purely internal change, bpo-31845 was
a fairly significant externally visible bug caused by
these changes (environment variable based configuration
was being ignored due to a change in the relative order
of reading the environment and reading command line settings,
and the test suite was only testing the command line options)
Hence this note to essentially say "If you see odd startup
problems in 3.7 that you've never seen in previous releases,
it's probably our fault, so let us know, and we'll fix it".
All Blake2 params have to be encoded in little-endian byte order. For
the two multi-byte integer params, leaf_length and node_offset, that
means that assigning a native-endian integer to them appears to work on
little-endian platforms, but gives the wrong result on big-endian. The
current libb2 API doesn't make that very clear, and @sneves is working
on new API functions in the GH issue above. In the meantime, we can work
around the problem by explicitly assigning little-endian values to the
parameter block.

* bpo-31310: multiprocessing's semaphore tracker should be launched again if crashed
* Avoid mucking with process state in test.
Add a warning if the semaphore process died, as semaphores may then be leaked.
* Add NEWS entry
* bpo-31308: If multiprocessing's forkserver dies, launch it again when necessary.
* Fix test on Windows
* Add NEWS entry
* Adopt a different approach: ignore SIGINT and SIGTERM, as in semaphore tracker.
* Fix comment
* Make sure the test doesn't muck with process state
* Also test previously-started processes
* Update 2017-08-30-17-59-36.bpo-31308.KbexyC.rst
* Avoid masking SIGTERM in forkserver. It's not necessary and causes a race condition in test_many_processes.
