exceptions that can't be raised any further, because (for instance) they
occur in __del__ methods. The coroutine tests in test_generators was
triggering this leak. Remove the leakers' testcase, and add a simpler
testcase that explicitly tests this leak to test_generators.
test_generators now no longer leaks at all, on my machine. This fix may also
solve other leaks, but my full refleakhunting run is still busy, so who
knows?
using a custom, nearly-identical macro. This probably changes how some of
these functions are compiled, which may result in fractionally slower (or
faster) execution. Considering the nature of traversal, visiting much of the
address space in unpredictable patterns, I'd argue the code readability and
maintainability is well worth it ;P
passing a string. Martin already fixed the actual crash by ensuring
Py_UNICODE is unsigned. As discussed on python-dev, this fix
removes the possibility of creating a unicode string from a raw buffer.
There is an outstanding question of how to fix the crash in 2.4.
that are suspended outside of any try/except/finally blocks to be
garbage collected even if they are part of a cycle. Generators that
suspend inside of an active try/except or try/finally block (including
those created by a ``with`` statement) are still not GC-able if they
are part of a cycle, however.
Re-enable all the tests in test_trace.py except one. Still not sure that these tests test what they used to test, but they pass. One failing test seems to be caused by undocumented line number table behavior in Python 2.4.
tracing/line number table in except blocks.
Reflow long lines introduced by col_offset changes. Update test_ast
to handle new fields in excepthandler.
As note in Python.asdl says, we might want to rethink how attributes
are handled. Perhaps they should be the same as other fields, with
the primary difference being how they are defined for all types within
a sum.
Also fix asdl_c so that constructors with int fields don't fail when
passed a zero value.
Explicitly clear all elements from arena->a_objects and remove
assert() that refcount is 1. It's possible for a program to get a
reference to the list via sys.getobjects() or via gc functions.
def foo((x)): was getting recognized as requiring tuple unpacking
which is not correct.
Add tests for this case and the proper way to unpack a tuple of one:
def foo((x,)):
test_inpsect was incorrect before. I'm not sure why it was passing,
but that has been corrected with a test for both functions above.
This means the test (and therefore inspect.getargspec()) are broken in 2.4.
objimpl.h, pymem.h: Stop mapping PyMem_{Del, DEL} and PyMem_{Free, FREE}
to PyObject_{Free, FREE} in a release build. They're aliases for the
system free() now.
_subprocess.c/sp_handle_dealloc(): Since the memory was originally
obtained via PyObject_NEW, it must be released via PyObject_FREE (or
_DEL).
pythonrun.c, tokenizer.c, parsermodule.c: I lost count of the number of
PyObject vs PyMem mismatches in these -- it's like the specific
function called at each site was picked at random, sometimes even with
memory obtained via PyMem getting released via PyObject. Changed most
to use PyObject uniformly, since the blobs allocated are predictably
small in most cases, and obmalloc is generally faster than system
mallocs then.
If extension modules in real life prove as sloppy as Python's front
end, we'll have to revert the objimpl.h + pymem.h part of this patch.
Note that no problems will show up in a debug build (all calls still go
thru obmalloc then). Problems will show up only in a release build, most
likely segfaults.
