No longer add /Library/Python/3.x/site-packages, the Apple-supplied
system Python site-packages directory, to sys.path for macOS framework
builds in case Apple ships a version of Python 3. A similar change
was made earlier to Python 2.7 where it was found that the coupling
between the system Python and a user-installed framework Python often
caused confusion or pip install failures.
Fix two (in my opinion) spurious failure conditions in the lib2to3.tests.test_parser.TestParserIdempotency test_parser test.
Use the same encoding found in the initial file to write a temp file for a diff. This retains the BOM if the encoding was initially utf-8-sig.
If the file cannot be parsed using the normal grammar, try again with no print statement which should succeed for valid files using future print_function
For case (1), the driver was correctly handling a BOM in a utf-8 file, but then the test was not writing a comparison file using 'utf-8-sig' to diff against, so the BOM got removed. I don't think that is the fault of the parser, and lib2to3 will retain the BOM.
For case (2), lib2to3 pre-detects the use of from __future__ import print_function or allows the user to force this interpretation with a -p flag, and then selects a different grammar with the print statement removed. That makes the test cases unfair to this test as the driver itself doesn't know which grammar to use. As a minimal fix, the test will try using a grammar with the print statement, and if that fails fall back on a grammar without it. A more thorough handling of the idempotency test would to be to parse all files using both grammars and ignore if one of the two failed but otherwise check both. I didn't think this was necessary but can change.
This allows the compression level to be specified when writing zipfiles
(for the entire file *and* overridden on a per-file basis).

Do not allow receiving a SIGINT to cause the subprocess module to trigger an
immediate SIGKILL of the child process. SIGINT is normally sent to all child
processes by the OS at the same time already as was the established normal
behavior in 2.7 and 3.2. This behavior change was introduced during the fix to https://bugs.python.org/issue12494 and is generally surprising to command line
tool users who expect other tools launched in child processes to get their own
SIGINT and do their own cleanup.
In Python 3.3-3.6 subprocess.call and subprocess.run would immediately
SIGKILL the child process upon receiving a SIGINT (which raises a
KeyboardInterrupt). We now give the child a small amount of time to
exit gracefully before resorting to a SIGKILL.
This is also the case for subprocess.Popen.__exit__ which would
previously block indefinitely waiting for the child to die. This was
hidden from many users by virtue of subprocess.call and subprocess.run
sending the signal immediately.
Behavior change: subprocess.Popen.__exit__ will not block indefinitely
when the exiting exception is a KeyboardInterrupt. This is done for
user friendliness as people expect their ^C to actually happen. This
could cause occasional orphaned Popen objects when not using `call` or
`run` with a child process that hasn't exited.
Refactoring involved: The Popen.wait method deals with the
KeyboardInterrupt second chance, existing platform specific internals
have been renamed to _wait().
Also fixes comment typos.
Fix socket(fileno=fd) by auto-detecting the socket's family, type,
and proto from the file descriptor. The auto-detection can be overruled
by passing in family, type, and proto explicitly.
Without the fix, all socket except for TCP/IP over IPv4 are basically broken:
>>> s = socket.create_connection(('www.python.org', 443))
>>> s
<socket.socket fd=3, family=AddressFamily.AF_INET6, type=SocketKind.SOCK_STREAM, proto=6, laddr=('2003:58:bc4a:3b00:56ee:75ff:fe47:ca7b', 59730, 0, 0), raddr=('2a04:4e42:1b::223', 443, 0, 0)>

Until now Python used a hard coded white list of default TLS cipher
suites. The old approach has multiple downsides. OpenSSL's default
selection was completely overruled. Python did neither benefit from new
cipher suites (ChaCha20, TLS 1.3 suites) nor blacklisted cipher suites.
For example we used to re-enable 3DES.
Python now defaults to OpenSSL DEFAULT cipher suite selection and black
lists all unwanted ciphers. Downstream vendors can override the default
cipher list with --with-ssl-default-suites.

Initial patch by Nitish Chandra.
The arguments to a generator function which is declared as a
contextmanager are stored inside the context manager, and
thus are kept alive, even when it is used as a regular context
manager, and not as a function decorator (where it needs
the original arguments to recreate the generator on each
call).
This is a possible unnecessary memory leak, so this changes
contextmanager.__enter__ to release the saved arguments,
as that method being called means that particular CM instance
isn't going to need to recreate the underlying generator.
Patch by Martin Teichmann.
Class authors no longer need to specify repr=False if they want to provide a custom __repr__ for dataclasses. The same thing applies for the other dunder methods that the dataclass decorator adds. If dataclass finds that a dunder methods is defined in the class, it will not overwrite it.
bpo-31399: Let OpenSSL verify hostname and IP

When an unawaited coroutine is collected very late in shutdown --
like, during the final GC at the end of PyImport_Cleanup -- then it
was triggering an interpreter abort, because we'd try to look up the
"warnings" module and not only was it missing (we were prepared for
that), but the entire module system was missing (which we were not
prepared for).
I've tried to fix this at the source, by making the utility function
get_warnings_attr robust against this in general. Note that it already
has the convention that it can return NULL without setting an error,
which is how it signals that the attribute it was asked to fetch is
missing, and that all callers already check for NULL returns.
There's a similar check for being late in shutdown at the top of
warn_explicit, which might be unnecessary after this fix, but I'm not
sure so I'm going to leave it.
* Document `from __future__ import annotations`

implementation-dependent.)
test_deeply_nested_repr(): Add new test, replacing the original
test_recursive_repr(). It checks that a RecursionError is raised in
the case of a non-recursive but deeply nested structure. (Very
similar to what test_repr_deep() in test/test_dict.py does for a
normal dict.)

- primary change is to add a new default filter entry for

early on during interpreter startup)
- assorted documentation updates, including many more
examples of configuring the warnings settings

Third party projects may wish to hide their own internal machinery in
order to present more comprehensible tracebacks to end users
(e.g. Jinja2 and Trio both do this).
Previously such projects have had to rely on ctypes to do so:
fe3dadacdf/jinja2/debug.py (L345)1e86b1aee8/trio/_core/_multierror.py (L296)
This provides a Python level API for creating and modifying real
Traceback objects, allowing tracebacks to be edited at runtime.
Patch by Nathaniel Smith.
The picklers do no longer allocate temporary memory when dumping large
bytes and str objects into a file object. Instead the data is
directly streamed into the underlying file object.
Previously the C implementation would buffer all content and issue a
single call to file.write() at the end of the dump. With protocol 4
this behavior has changed to issue one call to file.write() per frame.
The Python pickler with protocol 4 now dumps each frame content as a
memoryview to an IOBytes instance that is never reused and the
memoryview is no longer released after the call to write. This makes it
possible for the file object to delay access to the memoryview of
previous frames without forcing any additional memory copy as was
already possible with the C pickler.
Add a new argument "-m" to the pdb module to allow
users to run `python -m pdb -m my_module_name`.
This relies on private APIs in the runpy module to work,
but we can get away with that since they're both part of
the standard library and can be updated together if
the runpy internals get refactored.
Fix deadlocks in :class:`concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor` when task arguments or results cause pickling or unpickling errors.
This should make sure that calls to the :class:`ProcessPoolExecutor` API always eventually return.
This is more complicated than it should be because we need to preserve the
useful mtime-based regeneration feature that lib2to3.pgen2.driver.load_grammar
has. We only look for the pickled grammar file with pkgutil.get_data and only if
the source file does not exist.

The following assertion always holds because fds_to_keep and open_fds

Fix the code to match the message in the assertion.
Even though Python marks any handles it opens as non-inheritable there
is still a race when using `subprocess.Popen` since creating a process
with redirected stdio requires temporarily creating inheritable handles.
By implementing support for `subprocess.Popen(close_fds=True)` we fix
this race.
In order to implement this we use PROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_HANDLE_LIST
which is available since Windows Vista. Which allows to pass an explicit
list of handles to inherit when creating a process.
This commit also adds `STARTUPINFO.lpAttributeList["handle_list"]`
which can be used to control PROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_HANDLE_LIST
directly.
Exactly which locale requests will end up giving
you the "C" locale is actually platform dependent.
A blank locale and "POSIX" will translate to "C"
on most Linux distros, but may not do so on other platforms, so this adjusts the way the tests are structured to better account for that.
This is an initial step towards fixing the current
test failure on Cygwin (hence the issue reference)
bpo-29240, bpo-32030: If the encoding change (C locale coerced or

asyncio.get_event_loop(), and, subsequently asyncio._get_running_loop()

Rather than supporting dev mode directly in the warnings module, this
instead adjusts the initialisation code to add an extra 'default'
entry to sys.warnoptions when dev mode is enabled.
This ensures that dev mode behaves *exactly* as if `-Wdefault` had
been passed on the command line, including in the way it interacts
with `sys.warnoptions`, and with other command line flags like `-bb`.
Fix also bpo-20361: have -b & -bb options take precedence over any
other warnings options.
Patch written by Nick Coghlan, with minor modifications of Victor Stinner.
The error messages in `object.__new__` and `object.__init__` now aim
to point the user more directly at the name of the class being instantiated
in cases where they *haven't* been overridden (on the assumption that
the actual problem is a missing `__new__` or `__init__` definition in the
class body).
When they *have* been overridden, the errors still report themselves as
coming from object, on the assumption that the problem is with the call
up to the base class in the method implementation, rather than with the
way the constructor is being called.
Python now supports checking bytecode cache up-to-dateness with a hash of the
source contents rather than volatile source metadata. See the PEP for details.
While a fairly straightforward idea, quite a lot of code had to be modified due
to the pervasiveness of pyc implementation details in the codebase. Changes in
this commit include:
- The core changes to importlib to understand how to read, validate, and

- Support for generating hash-based pycs in py_compile and compileall.
- Modifications to our siphash implementation to support passing a custom
key. We then expose it to importlib through _imp.
- Updates to all places in the interpreter, standard library, and tests that
manually generate or parse pyc files to grok the new format.
- Support in the interpreter command line code for long options like
--check-hash-based-pycs.
- Tests and documentation for all of the above.

When tk event handling is driven by IDLE's run loop, a confusing
and distracting queue.EMPTY traceback context is no longer added
to tk event exception tracebacks. The traceback is now the same
as when event handling is driven by user code. Patch based on
a suggestion by Serhiy Storchaka.
The original algorithm tried to delegate the folding to the tokens so
that those tokens whose folding rules differed could specify the
differences. However, this resulted in a lot of duplicated code because
most of the rules were the same.
The new algorithm moves all folding logic into a set of functions
external to the token classes, but puts the information about which
tokens can be folded in which ways on the tokens...with the exception of
mime-parameters, which are a special case (which was not even
implemented in the old folder).
This algorithm can still probably be improved and hopefully simplified
somewhat.
Note that some of the test expectations are changed. I believe the
changes are toward more desirable and consistent behavior: in general
when (re) folding a line the canonical version of the tokens is
generated, rather than preserving errors or extra whitespace.
Previously, CO_NOFREE was set in the compiler, which meant
it could end up being set incorrectly when code objects
were created directly. Setting it in the constructor based
on freevars and cellvars ensures it is always accurate,
regardless of how the code object is defined.
If the marshal or bytecode formats get changed, frozen.c needs to
be updated as well. It can be easy to miss this step and not doing
so can cause test_importlib to crash in mysterious ways. Add an
explict unit test to make it easier to track down the problem.
The current behaviour of yield expressions inside comprehensions and
generator expressions is essentially an accident of implementation - it
arises implicitly from the way the compiler handles yield expressions inside
nested functions and generators.
Since the current behaviour wasn't deliberately designed, and is inherently
confusing, we're deprecating it, with no current plans to reintroduce it.
Instead, our advice will be to use a named nested generator definition
for cases where this behaviour is desired.

``uuid.getnode()`` now preferentially returns universally administered MAC addresses if available, over locally administered MAC addresses.

asyncio.selectors was added to support Python 3.3, which doesn't have
selectors in its standard library, and Python 3.4 in the same code
base. Same rationale for asyncio._overlapped. Python 3.3 reached its
end of life, and asyncio is no more maintained as a third party
module on PyPI.
The asyncio/compat.py file was written to support Python < 3.5 and
Python < 3.5.2. But Python 3.5 doesn't accept bugfixes anymore, only
security fixes. There is no more need to backport bugfixes to Python
3.5, and so no need to have a single code base for Python 3.5, 3.6
and 3.7.
Say hello (again) to "async" and "await", who became real keywords in

the associated test cases out into their own dedicated
test file.
Improve UUID1 MAC address calculation and related tests.
There are two bits in the MAC address that are relevant to UUID1. The first is the locally administered vs. universally administered bit (second least significant of the first octet). Physical network interfaces such as ethernet ports and wireless adapters will always be universally administered, but some interfaces --such as the interface that MacBook Pros communicate with their Touch Bars-- are locally administered. The former are guaranteed to be globally unique, while the latter are demonstrably *not* globally unique and are in fact the same on every MBP with a Touch Bar. With this bit is set, the MAC is locally administered; with it unset it is universally administered.
The other bit is the multicast bit (least significant bit of the first octet). When no other MAC address can be found, RFC 4122 mandates that a random 48-bit number be generated. This randomly generated number *must* have the multicast bit set.
The improvements in uuid.py include:
* Preferentially return a universally administered MAC address, falling back to a locally administered address if none of the former can be found.
* Improve several coding style issues, such as adding explicit returns of None, using a more readable bitmask pattern, and assuming that the ultimate fallback, random MAC generation will not fail (and propagating any exception there instead of swallowing them).
Improvements in test_uuid.py include:
* Always testing the calculated MAC for universal administration, unless explicitly disabled (i.e. for the random case), or implicitly disabled due to running in the Travis environment. Travis test machines have *no* universally administered MAC address at the time of this writing.
The warnings module doesn't leak memory anymore in the hidden
warnings registry for the "ignore" action of warnings filters.
The warn_explicit() function doesn't add the warning key to the
registry anymore for the "ignore" action.
