This implements things like `list[int]`,
which returns an object of type `types.GenericAlias`.
This object mostly acts as a proxy for `list`,
but has attributes `__origin__` and `__args__`
that allow recovering the parts (with values `list` and `(int,)`.
There is also an approximate notion of type variables;
e.g. `list[T]` has a `__parameters__` attribute equal to `(T,)`.
Type variables are objects of type `typing.TypeVar`.

Cast function pointers to (void(*)(void)) before casting to (PyCFunction)
to make "warning: cast between incompatible function types" false alarm quiet.
* bpo-32492: 2.5x speed up in namedtuple attribute access using C fast path
* Add News entry
* fixup! bpo-32492: 2.5x speed up in namedtuple attribute access using C fast path
* Check for tuple in the __get__ of the new descriptor and don't cache the descriptor itself
* Don't inherit from property. Implement GC methods to handle __doc__
* Add a test for the docstring substitution in descriptors
* Update NEWS entry to reflect time against 3.7 branch
* Simplify implementation with argument clinic, better error messages, only __new__
* Use positional-only parameters for the __new__
* Use PyTuple_GET_SIZE and PyTuple_GET_ITEM to tighter the implementation of tuplegetterdescr_get
* Implement __set__ to make tuplegetter a data descriptor
* Use Py_INCREF now that we inline PyTuple_GetItem
* Apply the valid_index() function, saving one test
* Move Py_None test out of the critical path.
Fix invalid function cast warnings with gcc 8
for method conventions different from METH_NOARGS, METH_O and
METH_VARARGS excluding Argument Clinic generated code.
METH_NOARGS functions need only a single argument but they are cast
into a PyCFunction, which takes two arguments. This triggers an
invalid function cast warning in gcc8 due to the argument mismatch.
Fix this by adding a dummy unused argument.
Issue #29452: Use METH_FASTCALL calling convention for index(), insert() and
rotate() methods of collections.deque to avoid the creation a temporary tuple
to pass position arguments. Speedup on deque methods:
* d.rotate(): 1.10x faster
* d.rotate(1): 1.24x faster
* d.insert(): 1.18x faster
* d.index(): 1.24x faster
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.
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.
Don't pass "()" format to PyObject_CallXXX() to call a function without
argument: pass NULL as the format string instead. It avoids to have to parse a
string to produce 0 argument.
