The private _PyUnicode_Name_CAPI structure of the PyCapsule API
unicodedata.ucnhash_CAPI moves to the internal C API. Moreover, the
structure gets a new state member which must be passed to the
getcode() and getname() functions.
* Move Include/ucnhash.h to Include/internal/pycore_ucnhash.h
* unicodedata module is now built with Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE.

Fix memory leak in subprocess.Popen() in case of uid/gid overflow
Also add a test that would catch this leak with `--huntrleaks`.
Alas, the test for `extra_groups` also exposes an inconsistency
in our error reporting: we use a custom ValueError for `extra_groups`,
but propagate OverflowError for `user` and `group`.

* bpo-35823: subprocess: Use vfork() instead of fork() on Linux when safe
When used to run a new executable image, fork() is not a good choice
for process creation, especially if the parent has a large working set:
fork() needs to copy page tables, which is slow, and may fail on systems
where overcommit is disabled, despite that the child is not going to
touch most of its address space.
Currently, subprocess is capable of using posix_spawn() instead, which
normally provides much better performance. However, posix_spawn() does not
support many of child setup operations exposed by subprocess.Popen().
Most notably, it's not possible to express `close_fds=True`, which
happens to be the default, via posix_spawn(). As a result, most users
can't benefit from faster process creation, at least not without
changing their code.
However, Linux provides vfork() system call, which creates a new process
without copying the address space of the parent, and which is actually
used by C libraries to efficiently implement posix_spawn(). Due to sharing
of the address space and even the stack with the parent, extreme care
is required to use vfork(). At least the following restrictions must hold:
* No signal handlers must execute in the child process. Otherwise, they
might clobber memory shared with the parent, potentially confusing it.
* Any library function called after vfork() in the child must be
async-signal-safe (as for fork()), but it must also not interact with any
library state in a way that might break due to address space sharing
and/or lack of any preparations performed by libraries on normal fork().
POSIX.1 permits to call only execve() and _exit(), and later revisions
remove vfork() specification entirely. In practice, however, almost all
operations needed by subprocess.Popen() can be safely implemented on
Linux.
* Due to sharing of the stack with the parent, the child must be careful
not to clobber local variables that are alive across vfork() call.
Compilers are normally aware of this and take extra care with vfork()
(and setjmp(), which has a similar problem).
* In case the parent is privileged, special attention must be paid to vfork()
use, because sharing an address space across different privilege domains
is insecure[1].
This patch adds support for using vfork() instead of fork() on Linux
when it's possible to do safely given the above. In particular:
* vfork() is not used if credential switch is requested. The reverse case
(simple subprocess.Popen() but another application thread switches
credentials concurrently) is not possible for pure-Python apps because
subprocess.Popen() and functions like os.setuid() are mutually excluded
via GIL. We might also consider to add a way to opt-out of vfork() (and
posix_spawn() on platforms where it might be implemented via vfork()) in
a future PR.
* vfork() is not used if `preexec_fn != None`.
With this change, subprocess will still use posix_spawn() if possible, but
will fallback to vfork() on Linux in most cases, and, failing that,
to fork().

[bpo-39416](): Document string representations of the Numeric classes
This is a change to the specification of the Python language.
The idea here is to put sane minimal limits on the Python language's default
representations of its Numeric classes. That way "Marty's Robotic Massage Parlor
and Python Interpreter" implementation of Python won't do anything too
crazy.
Some discussion in the email thread:
Subject: Documenting Python's float.__str__()
https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/thread/FV22TKT3S2Q3P7PNN6MCXI6IX3HRRNAL/
* Add _newline_ parameter to `pathlib.Path.write_text()`
* Update documentation of `pathlib.Path.write_text()`
* Add test case for `pathlib.Path.write_text()` calls with _newline_ parameter passed
Automerge-Triggered-By: GH:methane
* Add F_SETPIPE_SZ and F_GETPIPE_SZ to fcntl module
* Add pipesize parameter for subprocess.Popen class
This will allow the user to control the size of the pipes.
On linux the default is 64K. When a pipe is full it blocks for writing.
When a pipe is empty it blocks for reading. On processes that are
very fast this can lead to a lot of wasted CPU cycles. On a typical
Linux system the max pipe size is 1024K which is much better.
For high performance-oriented libraries such as xopen it is nice to
be able to set the pipe size.
The workaround without this feature is to use my_popen_process.stdout.fileno() in
conjuction with fcntl and 1031 (value of F_SETPIPE_SZ) to acquire this behavior.
This PR replaces #1977. The reason for the replacement is two-fold.
The fix itself is different is that if the CTE header doesn't exist in the original message, it is inserted. This is important because the new CTE could be quoted-printable whereas the original is implicit 8bit.
Also the tests are different. The test_nonascii_as_string_without_cte test in #1977 doesn't actually test the issue in that it passes without the fix. The test_nonascii_as_string_without_content_type_and_cte test is improved here, and even though it doesn't fail without the fix, it is included for completeness.

It was moved out of the limited API in 7d95e40721.
This change re-enables it from 3.10, to avoid generating invalid extension modules for earlier versions.
Since c19c5a6, AIX builds have defaulted to using dynload_shlib over
dynload_aix when dlopen is available. This function has been available
since AIX 4.3, which went out of support in 2003, the same year the
previously referenced commit was made. It has been nearly 20 years
since a version of AIX has been supported which has not used
dynload_shlib so there's no reason to keep this legacy code around.
When running in a non-UTF-8 locale, if an error occurs while importing a
native Python module (say because a dependent share library is missing),
the error message string returned may contain non-ASCII code points
causing a UnicodeDecodeError.
PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefault is used for buffers which may contain
filesystem paths. For consistency with os.strerror(),
PyUnicode_DecodeLocale is used for buffers which contain system error
messages. While the shortname parameter is always encoded in ASCII
according to PEP 489, it is left decoded using PyUnicode_FromString to
minimize the changes and since it should not affect the decoding (albeit
_potentially_ slower).
In dynload_hpux, since the error buffer contains a message generated
from a static ASCII string and the module filesystem path,
PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefault is used instead of PyUnicode_DecodeLocale as
is used elsewhere.
* bpo-41894: Fix bugs in dynload error msg handling
For both dynload_aix and dynload_hpux, properly handle the possibility
that decoding strings may return NULL and when such an error happens,
properly decrement any previously decoded strings and return early.
In addition, in dynload_aix, ensure that we pass the decoded string
*object* pathname_ob to PyErr_SetImportError instead of the original
pathname buffer.

close_range(2) should be preferred at all times if it's available, otherwise we'll use closefrom(2) if available with a fallback to fdwalk(3) or plain old loop over fd range in order of most efficient to least.
[note that this version does check for ENOSYS, but currently ignores all other errors]
Automerge-Triggered-By: @pablogsal
Such an API can be used both for os.closerange and subprocess. For the latter, this yields potential improvement for platforms that have fdwalk but wouldn't have used it there. This will prove even more beneficial later for platforms that have close_range(2), as the new API will prefer that over all else if it's available.
The new API is structured to look more like close_range(2), closing from [start, end] rather than the [low, high) of os.closerange().

This fixes the test failure with Tk 6.8.10 which is caused by changes to how Tk rounds the `from`, `to` and `tickinterval` arguments. This PR uses `noconv` if the patchlevel is greater than or equal to 8.6.10 (credit to Serhiy for this idea as it is much simpler than what I previously proposed).
Going into more detail for those who want it, the Tk change was made in [commit 591f68c](591f68cb38) and means that the arguments listed above are rounded relative to the value of `from`. However, when rounding the `from` argument ([line 623](591f68cb38/generic/tkScale.c (L623))), it is rounded relative to itself (i.e. rounding `0`) and therefore the assigned value for `from` is always what is given (no matter what values of `from` and `resolution`).

This special marker annotation is intended to help in distinguishing
proper PEP 484-compliant type aliases from regular top-level variable
assignments.
The hard part was making all the tests pass; there are some subtle issues here, because apparently the future import wasn't tested very thoroughly in previous Python versions.
For example, `inspect.signature()` returned type objects normally (except for forward references), but strings with the future import. We changed it to try and return type objects by calling `typing.get_type_hints()`, but fall back on returning strings if that function fails (which it may do if there are future references in the annotations that require passing in a specific namespace to resolve).
Enable recursion checks which were disabled when get __bases__ of
non-type objects in issubclass() and isinstance() and when intern
strings. It fixes a stack overflow when getting __bases__ leads
to infinite recursion.
Originally recursion checks was disabled for PyDict_GetItem() which
silences all errors including the one raised in case of detected
recursion and can return incorrect result. But now the code uses
PyDict_GetItemWithError() and PyDict_SetDefault() instead.
* bpo-26680: Adds support for int.is_integer() for compatibility with float.is_integer().
The int.is_integer() method always returns True.
* bpo-26680: Adds a test to ensure that False.is_integer() and True.is_integer() are always True.
* bpo-26680: Adds Real.is_integer() with a trivial implementation using conversion to int.
This default implementation is intended to reduce the workload for subclass
implementers. It is not robust in the presence of infinities or NaNs and
may have suboptimal performance for other types.
* bpo-26680: Adds Rational.is_integer which returns True if the denominator is one.
This implementation assumes the Rational is represented in it's
lowest form, as required by the class docstring.
* bpo-26680: Adds Integral.is_integer which always returns True.
* bpo-26680: Adds tests for Fraction.is_integer called as an instance method.
The tests for the Rational abstract base class use an unbound
method to sidestep the inability to directly instantiate Rational.
These tests check that everything works correct as an instance method.
* bpo-26680: Updates documentation for Real.is_integer and built-ins int and float.
The call x.is_integer() is now listed in the table of operations
which apply to all numeric types except complex, with a reference
to the full documentation for Real.is_integer(). Mention of
is_integer() has been removed from the section 'Additional Methods
on Float'.
The documentation for Real.is_integer() describes its purpose, and
mentions that it should be overridden for performance reasons, or
to handle special values like NaN.
* bpo-26680: Adds Decimal.is_integer to the Python and C implementations.
The C implementation of Decimal already implements and uses
mpd_isinteger internally, we just expose the existing function to
Python.
The Python implementation uses internal conversion to integer
using to_integral_value().
In both cases, the corresponding context methods are also
implemented.
Tests and documentation are included.

Remove the global _Py_CheckRecursionLimit variable: it has been
replaced by ceval.recursion_limit of the PyInterpreterState
structure.
There is no need to keep the variable for the stable ABI, since
Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() were not usable
in Python 3.8 and older: these macros accessed PyThreadState members,
whereas the PyThreadState structure is opaque in the limited C API.
The new API allows to efficiently send values into native generators
and coroutines avoiding use of StopIteration exceptions to signal
returns.
ceval loop now uses this method instead of the old "private"
_PyGen_Send C API. This translates to 1.6x increased performance
of 'await' calls in micro-benchmarks.
Aside from CPython core improvements, this new API will also allow
Cython to generate more efficient code, benefiting high-performance
IO libraries like uvloop.
* When the parameters argument is a list, correctly handle the case

EnumMeta double-checks that `__repr__`, `__str__`, `__format__`, and `__reduce_ex__` are not the same as `object`'s, and replaces them if they are -- even if that replacement was intentionally done in the Enum being constructed. This patch fixes that.

Partially revert commit ac46eb4ad6662cf6d771b20d8963658b2186c48c:
"bpo-38113: Update the Python-ast.c generator to PEP384 (gh-15957)".
Using a module state per module instance is causing subtle practical
problems.
For example, the Mercurial project replaces the __import__() function
to implement lazy import, whereas Python expected that "import _ast"
always return a fully initialized _ast module.
Add _PyAST_Fini() to clear the state at exit.
The _ast module has no state (set _astmodule.m_size to 0). Remove
astmodule_traverse(), astmodule_clear() and astmodule_free()
functions.
NuGet automatically includes .props file from the build directory in the
target using the package, but only if the .props file has the correct
name: it must be $(id).props
Rename python.props correspondingly in all the nuspec variants. Also
keep python.props as it were for backward compatibility.
tarfile writes full path to FNAME field of GZIP format instead of just basename if user specified absolute path. Some archive viewers may process file incorrectly. Also it creates security issue because anyone can know structure of directories on system and know username or other personal information.
RFC1952 says about FNAME:
This is the original name of the file being compressed, with any directory components removed.
So tarfile must remove directory names from FNAME and write only basename of file.

When allocating MemoryError classes, there is some logic to use

Currently, if `asyncio.wait_for()` itself is cancelled it will always
raise `CancelledError` regardless if the underlying task is still
running. This is similar to a race with the timeout, which is handled
already.
When I was fixing bpo-32751 back in GH-7216 I missed the case when
*timeout* is zero or negative. This takes care of that.
Props to @aaliddell for noticing the inconsistency.
asyncio.AbstractEventLoop.run_in_executor should be a method that returns an asyncio Future, not an async method.
This matches the concrete implementations, and the documentation better.
