pymain_run_file() no longer encodes the filename: pass the filename
as an object to the new _PyRun_AnyFileObject() function.
Add new private functions:
* _PyRun_AnyFileObject()
* _PyRun_InteractiveLoopObject()
* _Py_FdIsInteractive()
- Copy existing xxlimited to xxlimited53 (named for the limited API version it uses)
- Build both modules, both in debug and release
- Test both modules
Several built-in and standard library types now ensure that their internal result tuples are always tracked by the garbage collector:
- collections.OrderedDict.items
- dict.items
- enumerate
- functools.reduce
- itertools.combinations
- itertools.combinations_with_replacement
- itertools.permutations
- itertools.product
- itertools.zip_longest
- zip
Previously, they could have become untracked by a prior garbage collection.
No longer use deprecated aliases to functions:
* Replace PyObject_MALLOC() with PyObject_Malloc()
* Replace PyObject_REALLOC() with PyObject_Realloc()
* Replace PyObject_FREE() with PyObject_Free()
* Replace PyObject_Del() with PyObject_Free()
* Replace PyObject_DEL() with PyObject_Free()
No longer use deprecated aliases to functions:
* Replace PyMem_MALLOC() with PyMem_Malloc()
* Replace PyMem_REALLOC() with PyMem_Realloc()
* Replace PyMem_FREE() with PyMem_Free()
* Replace PyMem_Del() with PyMem_Free()
* Replace PyMem_DEL() with PyMem_Free()
Modify also the PyMem_DEL() macro to use directly PyMem_Free().
* bpo-40791: Make compare_digest more constant-time.
The existing volatile `left`/`right` pointers guarantee that the reads will all occur, but does not guarantee that they will be _used_. So a compiler can still short-circuit the loop, saving e.g. the overhead of doing the xors and especially the overhead of the data dependency between `result` and the reads. That would change performance depending on where the first unequal byte occurs. This change removes that optimization.
(This is change #1 from https://bugs.python.org/issue40791 .)
Convert the _imp extension module to the multi-phase initialization
API (PEP 489).
* Add _PyImport_BootstrapImp() which fix a bootstrap issue: import
the _imp module before importlib is initialized.
* Add create_builtin() sub-function, used by _imp_create_builtin().
* Initialize PyInterpreterState.import_func earlier, in
pycore_init_builtins().
* Remove references to _PyImport_Cleanup(). This function has been
renamed to finalize_modules() and moved to pylifecycle.c.
This change partically reverts
commit ad3252bad9
and the commit fe2978b3b9.
Many third party C extension modules rely on the ability of using
Py_TYPE() to set an object type: "Py_TYPE(obj) = type;" or to set an
object type using: "Py_SIZE(obj) = size;".
* Add signal_add_constants() function and add ADD_INT_MACRO macro.
* The Python SIGINT handler is now installed at the end of
signal_exec().
* Use Py_NewRef().
bpo-41686, bpo-41713: On Windows, the SIGINT event,
_PyOS_SigintEvent(), is now created even if Python is configured to
not install signal handlers (PyConfig.install_signal_handlers=0 or
Py_InitializeEx(0)).
Changes:
* Move global variables initialization from signal_exec() to
_PySignal_Init() to clarify that they are global variables cleared
by _PySignal_Fini().
* _PySignal_Fini() now closes sigint_event.
* IntHandler is no longer a global variable.
Remove the undocumented PyOS_InitInterrupts() C function.
* Rename PyOS_InitInterrupts() to _PySignal_Init(). It now installs
other signal handlers, not only SIGINT.
* Rename PyOS_FiniInterrupts() to _PySignal_Fini()
As AIX 5.3 and below do not support thread_cputime, it was decided in
https://bugs.python.org/issue40680 to require AIX 6.1 and above. This
commit removes workarounds for — and references to — older, unsupported
AIX versions.
time.time(), time.perf_counter() and time.monotonic() functions can
no longer fail with a Python fatal error, instead raise a regular
Python exception on failure.
Remove _PyTime_Init(): don't check system, monotonic and perf counter
clocks at startup anymore.
On error, _PyTime_GetSystemClock(), _PyTime_GetMonotonicClock() and
_PyTime_GetPerfCounter() now silently ignore the error and return 0.
They cannot fail with a Python fatal error anymore.
Add py_mach_timebase_info() and win_perf_counter_frequency()
sub-functions.
Explicitly cast PyExc_Exception to PyTypeObject* to fix the warning:
modules\_ctypes\_ctypes.c(5748): warning C4133: '=':
incompatible types - from 'PyObject *' to '_typeobject *'
It is no longer possible to build the _ctypes extension module
without wchar_t type: remove CTYPES_UNICODE macro. Anyway, the
wchar_t type is required to build Python.
Fix reference leaks in the error path of the initialization function
the _ctypes extension module: call Py_DECREF(mod) on error.
Change PyCFuncPtr_Type name from _ctypes.PyCFuncPtr to
_ctypes.CFuncPtr to be consistent with the name exposed in the
_ctypes namespace (_ctypes.CFuncPtr).
Split PyInit__ctypes() function into sub-functions and add macros for
readability.
