This syncs to rev 7b43ada77821d23e55e3a4b35f6055a59b9e1ad7 there.
Summary:
- Add typing.DefaultDict (as a generic variant of collections.defaultdict).
- Use collections.Reversible if it exists (only relevant for Python 3.6).
- Revamped generic class behavior to conform to updated PEP 484.
- Improve speed of Generic.__new__.
- Make sure __init__ is called for new Generic instances. Fix issue #26391.
- Refactor async support to be compatible with 3.2, 3.3, 3.4.
- Remove 'io' and 're' from __all__ (they still exist, just not
included by "import *"). Fix issue #26234.
- Change @overload -- you can now use it outside stubs (you still
cannot call the decorated function though).
* Group functions into six new subsections
* Document the underlying Readline function or variable accessed
* get_history_length() returns the history file limit
* clear_history() is conditionally compiled in
* Clarify zero and one bases for history item indexes
* parse_and_bind() uses its argument directly as an init line
* Change "command line" to "line buffer" for consistency
* read_init_file() also executes the file
* read_history_file() replaces the previous history
* write_history_file() overwrites any existing file
* Differentiate history file lines from history list items, which could be
multi-line
* Add more information about completion, also addressing Issue #10796
* libedit (Editline) may be used on any platform; detection is OS X specific
On Python 3.3, use aliases:
* PyMem_RawMalloc = PyMem_Malloc
* PyMem_RawFree = PyMem_Free
These aliases are not need in Python 3.5, but this change makes synchronization
of code base simpler.
* Fix test_os.BytesWalkTests on Windows
* Mimick better the reference os.DirEntry on Windows
* _DummyDirEntry now caches os.stat() result
* _DummyDirEntry constructor now tries to get os.stat()
* Fix os._DummyDirEntry.is_symlink(), don't follow symbolic links:
use os.stat(path, follow_symlinks=False).
* multiprocessing: open file with closefd=False to avoid ResourceWarning
* _test_multiprocessing: open file with O_EXCL to detect bugs in tests (if a
previous test forgot to remove TESTFN)
* test_sys_exit(): remove TESTFN after each loop iteration
Initial patch written by Serhiy Storchaka.
Issue #26161: Use Py_uintptr_t instead of void* for atomic pointers in
pyatomic.h. Use atomic_uintptr_t when <stdatomic.h> is used.
Using void* causes compilation warnings depending on which implementation of
atomic types is used.
Issue #21925: warnings.formatwarning() now catches exceptions on
linecache.getline(...) to be able to log ResourceWarning emitted late during
the Python shutdown process.
Issue #26588: Fix _tracemalloc start/stop: don't play with the reentrant flag.
set_reentrant(1) fails with an assertion error if tracemalloc_init() is called
first in a thread A and tracemalloc_start() is called second in a thread B. The
tracemalloc is imported in a thread A. Importing the module calls
tracemalloc_init(). tracemalloc.start() is called in a thread B.
