* -X dev: it is now possible to override the memory allocator using
PYTHONMALLOC even if the developer mode is enabled.
* Add _Py_InitializeFromConfig()
* Add _Py_Initialize_ReadEnvVars() to set global configuration
variables from environment variables
* Fix the code to initialize Python: Py_Initialize() now also reads
environment variables
* _Py_InitializeCore() can now be called twice: the second call
only replaces the configuration.
* Write unit tests on Py_Initialize() and the different ways to
configure Python
* The isolated mode now always sets Py_IgnoreEnvironmentFlag and
Py_NoUserSiteDirectory to 1.
* pymain_read_conf() now saves/restores the configuration
if the encoding changed
_PyCoreConfig_Read() is now responsible to compute sys.path.
So sys.path is now computed before calling _Py_InitializeCore().
Changes:
* Add module_search_path, module_search_paths, executable, prefix,
base_prefix, exec_prefix and base_exec_prefix to _PyCoreConfig.
* _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read() now only converts wchar_t** lists
into a Python list, it doesn't compute sys.path anymore.
* Add coro.cr_origin and sys.set_coroutine_origin_tracking_depth
* Use coroutine origin information in the unawaited coroutine warning
* Stop using set_coroutine_wrapper in asyncio debug mode
* In BaseEventLoop.set_debug, enable debugging in the correct thread
* Add _PyCoreConfig.install_signal_handlers
* Remove _PyMain.config: _PyMainInterpreterConfig usage is now
restricted to pymain_init_python_main().
* Rename _PyMain.core_config to _PyMain.config
* _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read() now creates the xoptions dictionary
from the core config
* Fix _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read(): don't replace xoptions and
argv if they are already set.
Merge _PyCoreConfig_ReadEnv() into _PyCoreConfig_Read(), and
_Py_CommandLineDetails usage is now restricted to pymain_cmdline().
Changes:
* _PyCoreConfig: Add nxoption, xoptions, nwarnoption and warnoptions
* Add _PyCoreConfig.program: argv[0] or ""
* Move filename, command, module and xoptions from
_Py_CommandLineDetails to _PyMain. xoptions _Py_OptList becomes
(int, wchar_t**) list.
* Add pymain_cmdline() function
* Rename copy_argv() to copy_wstrlist(). Rename clear_argv() to
clear_wstrlist(). Remove _Py_OptList structure: use (int,
wchar_t**) list instead.
* Rename pymain_set_flag_from_env() to pymain_get_env_flag()
* Rename pymain_set_flags_from_env() to pymain_get_env_flags()
* _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read() now creates the warnoptions from
_PyCoreConfig.warnoptions
* Inline pymain_add_warning_dev_mode() and
pymain_add_warning_bytes_flag() into config_init_warnoptions()
* Inline pymain_get_program_name() into _PyCoreConfig_Read()
* _Py_CommandLineDetails: Replace warning_options with nwarnoption
and warnoptions. Replace env_warning_options with nenv_warnoption
and env_warnoptions.
* pymain_warnings_envvar() now has a single implementation for
Windows and Unix: use config_get_env_var_dup() to also get the
variable as wchar_t* on Unix.
* Add argc and argv to _PyCoreConfig
* _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read() now builds its argv from
_PyCoreConfig.arg
* Move _PyMain.env_warning_options into _Py_CommandLineDetails
* Reorder pymain_free()
bpo-29240, bpo-32030: If the encoding change (C locale coerced or
UTF-8 Mode changed), Py_Main() now reads again the configuration with
the new encoding.
Changes:
* Add _Py_UnixMain() called by main().
* Rename pymain_free_pymain() to pymain_clear_pymain(), it can now be
called multipled times.
* Rename pymain_parse_cmdline_envvars() to pymain_read_conf().
* Py_Main() now clears orig_argc and orig_argv at exit.
* Remove argv_copy2, Py_Main() doesn't modify argv anymore. There is
no need anymore to get two copies of the wchar_t** argv.
* _PyCoreConfig: add coerce_c_locale and coerce_c_locale_warn.
* Py_UTF8Mode is now initialized to -1.
* Locale coercion (PEP 538) now respects -I and -E options.
_PyMainInterpreterConfig now contains Python objects, whereas
_PyCoreConfig contains wchar_t* strings.
Core config:
* Rename _PyMainInterpreterConfig_ReadEnv() to _PyCoreConfig_ReadEnv()
* Move 3 strings from _PyMainInterpreterConfig to _PyCoreConfig:
module_search_path_env, home, program_name.
* Add _PyCoreConfig_Clear()
* _PyPathConfig_Calculate() now takes core config rather than main
config
* _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read() now requires also a core config
Main config:
* Add _PyMainInterpreterConfig.module_search_path: sys.path list
* Add _PyMainInterpreterConfig.argv: sys.argv list
* _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read() now computes module_search_path
* Add -X utf8 command line option, PYTHONUTF8 environment variable
and a new sys.flags.utf8_mode flag.
* If the LC_CTYPE locale is "C" at startup: enable automatically the
UTF-8 mode.
* Add _winapi.GetACP(). encodings._alias_mbcs() now calls
_winapi.GetACP() to get the ANSI code page
* locale.getpreferredencoding() now returns 'UTF-8' in the UTF-8
mode. As a side effect, open() now uses the UTF-8 encoding by
default in this mode.
* Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now use the UTF-8 encoding
in the UTF-8 Mode.
* Update subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle -X utf8
* Skip some tests relying on the current locale if the UTF-8 mode is
enabled.
* Add test_utf8mode.py.
* _Py_DecodeUTF8_surrogateescape() gets a new optional parameter to
return also the length (number of wide characters).
* pymain_get_global_config() and pymain_set_global_config() now
always copy flag values, rather than only copying if the new value
is greater than the old value.
* Py_Main() now starts by reading Py_xxx configuration variables to
only work on its own private structure, and then later writes back
the configuration into these variables.
* Replace Py_GETENV() with pymain_get_env_var() which ignores empty
variables.
* Add _PyCoreConfig.dump_refs
* Add _PyCoreConfig.malloc_stats
* _PyObject_DebugMallocStats() is now responsible to check if debug
hooks are installed. The function returns 1 if stats were written,
or 0 if the hooks are disabled. Mark _PyMem_PymallocEnabled() as
static.
* Simplify _PyCoreConfig_INIT, _PyMainInterpreterConfig_INIT,
_PyPathConfig_INIT macros: no need to set fields to 0/NULL, it's
redundant (the C language sets them to 0/NULL for us).
* Fix typo: pymain_run_statup() => pymain_run_startup()
* Remove a few XXX/TODO
_PyPathConfig_Init() now also initialize home and program_name:
* Rename existing _PyPathConfig_Init() to _PyPathConfig_Calculate().
Add a new _PyPathConfig_Init() function in pathconfig.c which
handles the _Py_path_config variable and call
_PyPathConfig_Calculate().
* Add home and program_name fields to _PyPathConfig.home
* _PyPathConfig_Init() now initialize home and program_name
from main_config
* Py_SetProgramName(), Py_SetPythonHome() and Py_GetPythonHome() now
calls Py_FatalError() on failure, instead of silently ignoring
failures.
* config_init_home() now gets directly _Py_path_config.home to only
get the value set by Py_SetPythonHome(), or NULL if
Py_SetPythonHome() was not called.
* config_get_program_name() now gets directly
_Py_path_config.program_name to only get the value set by
Py_SetProgramName(), or NULL if Py_SetProgramName() was not called.
* pymain_init_python() doesn't call Py_SetProgramName() anymore,
_PyPathConfig_Init() now always sets the program name
* Call _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read() in
pymain_parse_cmdline_envvars_impl() to control the memory allocator
* C API documentation: it's no more safe to call Py_GetProgramName()
before Py_Initialize().
* Py_Main() now calls Py_SetProgramName() earlier to be able to get
the program name in _PyMainInterpreterConfig_ReadEnv().
* Rename prog to program_name
* Rename progpath to program_name
Py_GetPath() and Py_Main() now call
_PyMainInterpreterConfig_ReadEnv() to share the same code to get
environment variables.
Changes:
* Add _PyMainInterpreterConfig_ReadEnv()
* Add _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Clear()
* Add _PyMem_RawWcsdup()
* _PyMainInterpreterConfig: rename pythonhome to home
* Rename _Py_ReadMainInterpreterConfig() to
_PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read()
* Use _Py_INIT_USER_ERR(), instead of _Py_INIT_ERR(), for decoding
errors: the user is able to fix the issue, it's not a bug in
Python. Same change was made in _Py_INIT_NO_MEMORY().
* Remove _Py_GetPythonHomeWithConfig()
* Py_Main() now reads the PYTHONHOME environment variable
* Add _Py_GetPythonHomeWithConfig() private function
* Add _PyWarnings_InitWithConfig()
* init_filters() doesn't get the current core configuration from the
current interpreter or Python thread anymore. Pass explicitly the
configuration to _PyWarnings_InitWithConfig().
* _Py_InitializeCore() now fails on _PyWarnings_InitWithConfig()
failure.
* Pass configuration as constant
Changes:
* Py_Main() initializes _PyCoreConfig.module_search_path_env from
the PYTHONPATH environment variable.
* PyInterpreterState_New() now initializes core_config and config
fields
* Compute sys.path a little bit ealier in
_Py_InitializeMainInterpreter() and new_interpreter()
* Add _Py_GetPathWithConfig() private function.
Py_Main() now handles two more -X options:
* -X showrefcount: new _PyCoreConfig.show_ref_count field
* -X showalloccount: new _PyCoreConfig.show_alloc_count field
The developer mode (-X dev) now creates all default warnings filters
to order filters in the correct order to always show ResourceWarning
and make BytesWarning depend on the -b option.
Write a functional test to make sure that ResourceWarning is logged
twice at the same location in the developer mode.
Add a new 'dev_mode' field to _PyCoreConfig.
Parse more env vars in Py_Main():
* Add more options to _PyCoreConfig:
* faulthandler
* tracemalloc
* importtime
* Move code to parse environment variables from _Py_InitializeCore()
to Py_Main(). This change fixes a regression from Python 3.6:
PYTHONUNBUFFERED is now read before calling pymain_init_stdio().
* _PyFaulthandler_Init() and _PyTraceMalloc_Init() now take an
argument to decide if the module has to be enabled at startup.
* tracemalloc_start() is now responsible to check the maximum number
of frames.
Other changes:
* Cleanup Py_Main():
* Rename some pymain_xxx() subfunctions
* Add pymain_run_python() subfunction
* Cleanup Py_NewInterpreter()
* _PyInterpreterState_Enable() now reports failure
* init_hash_secret() now considers pyurandom() failure as an "user
error": don't fail with abort().
* pymain_optlist_append() and pymain_strdup() now sets err on memory
allocation failure.
PR #1638, for bpo-28411, causes problems in some (very) edge cases. Until that gets sorted out, we're reverting the merge. PR #3506, a fix on top of #1638, is also getting reverted.
* Drop warnoptions from PyInterpreterState.
* Drop xoptions from PyInterpreterState.
* Don't set warnoptions and _xoptions again.
* Decref after adding to sys.__dict__.
* Drop an unused macro.
* Check sys.xoptions *before* we delete it.
* group the (stateful) runtime globals into various topical structs
* consolidate the topical structs under a single top-level _PyRuntimeState struct
* add a check-c-globals.py script that helps identify runtime globals
Other globals are excluded (see globals.txt and check-c-globals.py).
f_trace_lines: enable/disable line trace events
f_trace_opcodes: enable/disable opcode trace events
These are intended primarily for testing of the interpreter
itself, as they make it much easier to emulate signals
arriving at unfortunate times.
* group the (stateful) runtime globals into various topical structs
* consolidate the topical structs under a single top-level _PyRuntimeState struct
* add a check-c-globals.py script that helps identify runtime globals
Other globals are excluded (see globals.txt and check-c-globals.py).
* bpo-16500: Allow registering at-fork handlers
* Address Serhiy's comments
* Add doc for new C API
* Add doc for new Python-facing function
* Add NEWS entry + doc nit
PEP 432 specifies a number of large changes to interpreter startup code, including exposing a cleaner C-API. The major changes depend on a number of smaller changes. This patch includes all those smaller changes.
* bpo-6532: Make the thread id an unsigned integer.
From C API side the type of results of PyThread_start_new_thread() and
PyThread_get_thread_ident(), the id parameter of
PyThreadState_SetAsyncExc(), and the thread_id field of PyThreadState
changed from "long" to "unsigned long".
* Restore a check in thread_get_ident().
