key list data structure in the thread startup path.
This change is a companion to r60148 which already successfully dealt with a
similar issue on thread shutdown.
In particular this loop has been observed happening from this call path:
#0 in find_key ()
#1 in PyThread_set_key_value ()
#2 in _PyGILState_NoteThreadState ()
#3 in PyThreadState_New ()
#4 in t_bootstrap ()
#5 in pthread_start_thread ()
I don't know how this happens but it does, *very* rarely. On more than
one hardware platform. I have not been able to reproduce it manually.
(A flaky mutex implementation on the system in question is one hypothesis).
As with r60148, the spinning we managed to observe in the wild was due to a
single list element pointing back upon itself.
bus errors or SystemError being raised. As a side effect of fixing this, a bad
DECREF that could be triggered when 'message' and 'category' were both None was
fixed.
Closes issue 3211. Thanks JP Calderone for the bug report.
Added checks for integer overflows, contributed by Google. Some are
only available if asserts are left in the code, in cases where they
can't be triggered from Python code.
This patch adds a new configure argument on OSX:
--with-universal-archs=[32-bit|64-bit|all]
When used with the --enable-universalsdk option this controls which
CPU architectures are includes in the framework. The default is 32-bit,
meaning i386 and ppc. The most useful alternative is 'all', which includes
all 4 CPU architectures supported by MacOS X (i386, ppc, x86_64 and ppc64).
This includes limited support for the Carbon bindings in 64-bit mode as well,
limited because (a) I haven't done extensive testing and (b) a large portion
of the Carbon API's aren't available in 64-bit mode anyway.
I've also duplicated a feature of Apple's build of python: setting the
environment variable 'ARCHFLAGS' controls the '-arch' flags used for building
extensions using distutils.
renamed Include/bytesobject.h to Include/bytearrayobject.h
renamed Include/stringobject.h to Include/bytesobject.h
added Include/stringobject.h with aliases
Adds 'n' as a format specifier for integers, to mirror the same
specifier which is already available for floats. 'n' is the same as
'd', but inserts the current locale-specific thousands grouping.
I added this as a stringlib function, but it's only used by str type,
not unicode. This is because of an implementation detail in
unicode.format(), which does its own str->unicode conversion. But the
unicode version will be needed in 3.0, and it may be needed by other
code eventually in 2.6 (maybe decimal?), so I left it as a stringlib
implementation. As long as the unicode version isn't instantiated,
there's no overhead for this.
