Importing ProcessPoolExecutor may hang or cause an error when the import
accesses urandom on a low resource platform

The "-I" command line option (run Python in isolated mode) is now
also copied by the multiprocessing and distutils modules when
spawning child processes. Previously, only -E and -s options (enabled
by -I) were copied.
subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() now copies the -I flag.
Include/*.h should be the "portable Python API", whereas
Include/cpython/*.h should be the "CPython API": CPython
implementation details.
Changes:
* Create Include/cpython/ subdirectory
* "make install" now creates $prefix/include/cpython and copy
Include/cpython/* to $prefix/include/cpython
* Create Include/cpython/objimpl.h: move objimpl.h code
surrounded by "#ifndef Py_LIMITED_API" to cpython/objimpl.h.
* objimpl.h now includes cpython/objimpl.h
* Windows installer (MSI) now also install Include/ subdirectories:
Include/cpython/ and Include/internal/.
locale.localeconv() now sets temporarily the LC_CTYPE locale to the
LC_MONETARY locale if the two locales are different and monetary
strings are non-ASCII. This temporary change affects other threads.
Changes:
* locale.localeconv() can now set LC_CTYPE to LC_MONETARY to decode
monetary fields.
* Add LocaleInfo.grouping_buffer: copy localeconv() grouping string
since it can be replaced anytime if a different thread calls
localeconv().
* _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric() now requires a "struct lconv *"
structure, so locale.localeconv() now longer calls localeconv()
twice. Moreover, the function now requires all arguments to be
non-NULL.
* Rename STATIC_LOCALE_INFO_INIT to LocaleInfo_STATIC_INIT.
* Move _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric() definition from fileutils.h
to pycore_fileutils.h. pycore_fileutils.h now includes locale.h.
* The _locale module is now built with Py_BUILD_CORE defined.
coro->cr_origin wasn't initialized if compute_cr_origin() failed in
PyCoro_New(), which would cause a crash during the coroutine's
deallocation.

Discovered using clang's MemorySanitizer when it ran python3's
test_fstring test_misformed_unicode_character_name.
An msan build will fail by simply executing: ./python -c 'u"\N"'
The warnings module now suggests to enable tracemalloc if the source
is specified, tracemalloc module is available, but tracemalloc is not
tracing memory allocations.
Adds configure flags for msan and ubsan builds to make it easier to enable.
These also encode the detail that address sanitizer and memory sanitizer
should disable pymalloc.
Define MEMORY_SANITIZER when appropriate at build time and adds workarounds
to existing code to mark things as initialized where the sanitizer is otherwise unable to
determine that. This lets our build succeed under the memory sanitizer. not all tests
pass without sanitizer failures yet but we're in pretty good shape after this.
The System Preferences Dock "prefer tabs always" setting disables some
IDLE features. Menus are a bit different than as described for Windows
and Linux.
Fix an off by one error in the peephole optimizer when checking for unreachable code beyond a return.
Do a bounds check within find_op so it can return before going past the end as a safety measure.
7db3c48833 (diff-a33329ae6ae0bb295d742f0caf93c137)
introduced this off by one error while fixing another one nearby.
This bug was shipped in all Python 3.6 and 3.7 releases.
The included unittest won't fail unless you do a clang msan build.
The call to `_untrack_reader` is performed too soon, causing the protocol
to forget about the reader before `connection_lost` can run and feed the
EOF to the reader. See bpo-35065.
Current support for hash-based bytecode files in `zipimport` is rather
sparse, which leads to test failures when the test suite is ran with
the ``SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH`` environment variable set.
This teaches zipimport to handle hash-based pycs properly.
Handle Unicode contents on localised Windows systems when activating a
venv. activate.bat currently breaks on German Windows systems, as chcp.com does
not return a plain number as on English systems, but (arbitrarily) appends a dot at the end
(for example "Aktive Codepage: 850." instead of "Active Codepage: 850"). The
dependency to chcp.com is removed and ctypes is used to get, set and restore the
console output code page. The code page for console input is not changed.
We can't use __VENV_PYTHON__ to find python.exe, since it's UTF-8. cmd.exe decodes
the script using the console output code page.
Without setting mtime, time.time() will be used as the timestamp which will
end up in the compressed data and each invocation of the compress() function
will vary over time.
The new option in the CLI of the profile module allow to profile
executable modules. This change follows the same implementation as the
one already present in `cProfile`.
As the argument is now present on both modules, move the tests to the
common test case to be run with profile as well.
Some methods in the os module can accept path-like objects. This is documented in the general documentation but not in the function docstrings. To keep both in sync, the docstrings need to be updated to reflect that path-like objects are also accepted.
