[ 1327110 ] wrong TypeError traceback in generator expressions
by removing the code that can stomp on the users' TypeError raised by the
iterable argument to ''.join() -- PySequence_Fast (now?) gives a perfectly
reasonable message itself. Also, a couple of tests.
Incorrect code was generated for:

This should have generated a SyntaxError. Fix the Grammar so
it raises a SyntaxError and test it.
I'm uncertain whether this should be backported. It makes
something that was Syntactically valid invalid. However,
the code would either be completely broken or do the wrong thing.
This change implements a new bytecode compiler, based on a
transformation of the parse tree to an abstract syntax defined in

The compiler implementation is not complete, but it is in stable
enough shape to run the entire test suite excepting two disabled

Problem: if two files are assigned the same inode
number by the filesystem, the second one will be added
as a hardlink to the first, which means that the
content will be lost.
The patched code checks if the file's st_nlink is
greater 1. So only for files that actually have several
links pointing to them hardlinks will be created, which
is what GNU tar does.

A new hashlib module to replace the md5 and sha modules. It adds

* Improve names for several variables and functions.
* Provide alternate table access functions (next, contains, add, and discard)
that work with an entry argument instead of just a key. This improves
set-vs-set operations because we already have a hash value for each key

speed-up for quick hashing elements like strings and integers. Provides
much more substantial improvements for slow hashing elements like tuples
or objects defining a custom __hash__() function.
* Have difference operations resize() when 1/5 of the elements are dummies.
Formerly, it was 1/6. The new ratio triggers less frequently and only
in cases that it can resize quicker and with greater benefit. The right
answer is probably either 1/4, 1/5, or 1/6. Picked the middle value for
an even trade-off between resize time and the space/time costs of dummy
entries.

If the stream is temporarily exhausted, we might return the wrong line ending
(if the last character read is "\r" and the next one (after the byte stream

* Speed-up "x in y" where x has more than one character.
The existing code made excessive calls to the expensive memcmp() function.
The new code uses memchr() to rapidly find a start point for memcmp().
In addition to knowing that the first character is a match, the new code
also checks that the last character is a match. This significantly reduces
the incidence of false starts (saving memcmp() calls and making quadratic
behavior less likely).

`glob.glob()` currently calls itself recursively to build a list of matches of
the dirname part of the pattern and then filters by the basename part. This is
effectively BFS. ``glob.glob('*/*/*/*/*/foo')`` will build a huge list of all
directories 5 levels deep even if only a handful of them contain a ``foo``
entry. A generator-based recusion would never have to store these list at once
by implementing DFS. This patch converts the `glob` function to an `iglob`
recursive generator . `glob()` now just returns ``list(iglob(pattern))``.
I also cleaned up the code a bit (reduced duplicate `has_magic()` checks and
created a second `glob0` helper func so that the main loop need not be
duplicated).
Thanks to Cherniavsky Beni for the patch!
test_threading.test_foreign_thread(): new test does a basic check that

good test, since a thread created by thread.start_new_thread() isn't

This patch reverts the behaviour of readline() to something that behaves more
like Python 2.3: If a size parameter is given, read() is called only once.
As a side effect of this, readline() now supports all types of linebreaks
supported by unicode.splitlines().

The patch makes changes to inspect.py in two places:
* the pattern to match against functions at line 436 is
modified: lambdas should be matched even if not
preceded by whitespace, as long as "lambda" isn't part
of another word.
* the BlockFinder class is heavily modified. Changes are:
- checking for "def", "class" or "lambda" names
before setting self.started to True. Then checking the
same line for word characters after the colon (if the
colon is on that line). If so, and the line does not
end with a line continuation marker, raise EndOfBlock
immediately.
- adding self.passline to show that the line is to be
included and no more checking is necessary on that
line. Since a NEWLINE token is not generated when a
line continuation marker exists, this allows getsource
to continue with these functions even if the following
line would not be indented.

The underlying bug still exists, but also existed in 2.3.4:
import.c's load_source_module() returns NULL if
PyOS_GetLastModificationTime() returns -1, but
PyOS_GetLastModificationTime() doesn't set any exception when it returns
-1, and neither does load_source_module() when it gets back -1. This
leads to "SystemError: NULL result without error in PyObject_Call"
on an import that fails in this way.

Turns out the mysterious "expected output" file contained exactly N dots,
because test_poll() has a loop that *usually* went around N times,
printing one dot on each loop trip. But there's no guarantee of that,
because the exact value of N depended on the vagaries of scheduling
time.sleep()s across two different processes. So stopped printing dots,
and got rid of the expected output file. Add a loop counter instead,
and verify that the loop goes around at least a couple of times. Also
cut the minimum time needed for this test from 4 seconds to 1.

deque_item(): a performance bug: the linked list of blocks was followed
from the left in most cases, because the test (i < (deque->len >> 1)) was
after "i %= BLOCKLEN".
deque_clear(): replaced a call to deque_len() with deque->len; not sure what
this call was here for, nor if all compilers under the sun would inline it.
deque_traverse(): I belive that it could be called by the GC when the deque
has leftblock==rightblock==NULL, because it is tracked before the first block
is allocated (though closely before). Still, a C extension module subclassing
deque could provide its own tp_alloc that could trigger a GC collection after
the PyObject_GC_Track()...
deque_richcompare(): rewrote to cleanly check for end-of-iterations instead of
relying on deque.__iter__().next() to succeed exactly len(deque) times -- an
assumption which can break if deques are subclassed. Added a test.
I wonder if the length should be explicitely bounded to INT_MAX, with
OverflowErrors, as in listobject.c. On 64-bit machines, adding more than
INT_MAX in the deque will result in trouble. (Note to anyone/me fixing
this: carefully check for overflows if len is close to INT_MAX in the
following functions: deque_rotate(), deque_item(), deque_ass_item())
request. Tim says that "correct 'fuzzy' comparison of floats cannot
be automated." (The motivation behind adding the new option
was verifying interactive examples in Python's latex documentation;
several such examples use numbers that don't print consistently on
different platforms.)
Also, add a testcase.
Formerly, the list_extend() code used several local variables to remember
its state across iterations. Since an iteration could call arbitrary
Python code, it was possible for the list state to be changed. The new
code uses dynamic structure references instead of C locals. So, they
are always up-to-date.
After list_resize() is called, its size has been updated but the new
cells are filled with NULLs. These needed to be filled before arbitrary
iteration code was called; otherwise, that code could attempt to modify
a list that was in a semi-invalid state. The solution was to change
the ob->size field back to a value reflecting the actual number of valid
cells.
When an integer is compared to a float now, the int isn't coerced to float.
This avoids spurious overflow exceptions and insane results. This should
compute correct results, without raising spurious exceptions, in all cases
now -- although I expect that what happens when an int/long is compared to
a NaN is still a platform accident.
Note that we had potential problems here even with "short" ints, on boxes
where sizeof(long)==8. There's #ifdef'ed code here to handle that, but
I can't test it as intended. I tested it by changing the #ifdef to
trigger on my 32-bit box instead.
I suppose this is a bugfix candidate, but I won't backport it. It's
long-winded (for speed) and messy (because the problem is messy). Note
that this also depends on a previous 2.4 patch that introduced
_Py_SwappedOp[] as an extern.

with default False for testmod(). The real point of introducing this was
so that output from doctest.master.summarize() would be the same as in

- SafeTemplate is removed. Now Templates have both a substitute() and a

delimiter, the identifier pattern, or the entire pattern easy to override
and document, while retaining efficiency of class-time compilation of the

SF patch #1015989
The basic idea of this patch is to compute lineno attributes for all AST nodes. The actual
implementation lead to a lot of restructing and code cleanup.
The generated AST nodes now have an optional lineno argument to constructor. Remove the
top-level asList(), since it didn't seem to serve any purpose. Add an __iter__ to ast nodes.
Use isinstance() instead of explicit type tests.
Change transformer to use the new lineno attribute, which replaces three lines of code with one.
Use universal newlines so that we can get rid of special-case code for line endings. Use
lookup_node() in a few more frequently called, but simple com_xxx methods(). Change string
exception to class exception.
Several functions adopted the strategy of altering a full lengthed
string copy and resizing afterwards. That would fail if the initial
string was short enough (0 or 1) to be interned. Interning precluded
the subsequent resizing operation.
The solution was to make sure the initial string was at least two
characters long.
Added tests to verify that all binascii functions do not crater when
given an empty string argument.

- Use a replacement linecache.getlines that will return source lines

test_queue has failed occasionally for years, and there's more than one
cause.
The primary cause in the SF report appears to be that the test driver
really needs entirely different code for thread tests that expect to
raise exceptions than for thread tests that are testing non-exceptional
blocking semantics. So gave them entirely different code, and added a
ton of explanation.
Another cause is that the blocking thread tests relied in several places
on the difference between sleep(.1) and sleep(.2) being long enough for
the trigger thread to do its stuff sot that the blocking thread could make
progress. That's just not reliable on a loaded machine. Boosted the 0.2's
to 10.0's instead, which should be long enough under any non-catastrophic
system conditions. That doesn't make the test take longer to run, the 10.0
is just how long the blocking thread is *willing* to wait for the trigger
thread to do something. But if the Queue module is plain broken, such
tests will indeed take 10 seconds to fail now.
For similar (heavy load) reasons, changed threaded-test termination to
be willing to wait 10 seconds for the signal thread to end too.

This meant that if the test didn't pass it just errored out. Now if the test
