* Fix bug in allocationn size during creation of empty ShareableList illuminated by existing test run on Linux.
* Initial set of docs for shared_memory module.
* Added docs for ShareableList, added doctree entry for shared_memory submodule, name refactoring for greater clarity.

* Wording tweaks to docs.
* Fix test failures on Windows.
* Added tests around SharedMemoryManager.
* Documentation tweaks.
* Fix inappropriate test on Windows.
* Further documentation tweaks.
* Fix bare exception.
* Removed __copyright__.
* Fixed typo in doc, removed comment.
* Updated SharedMemoryManager preliminary tests to reflect change of not supporting all registered functions on SyncManager.
* Added Sphinx doctest run controls.
* CloseHandle should be in a finally block in case MapViewOfFile fails.
* Missed opportunity to use with statement.
* Switch to self.addCleanup to spare long try/finally blocks and save one indentation, change to use decorator to skip test instead.
* Simplify the posixshmem extension module.
Provide shm_open() and shm_unlink() functions. Move other
functionality into the shared_memory.py module.
* Added to doc around size parameter of SharedMemory.
* Changed PosixSharedMemory.size to use os.fstat.
* Change SharedMemory.buf to a read-only property as well as NamedSharedMemory.size.
* Marked as provisional per PEP411 in docstring.
* Changed SharedMemoryTracker to be private.
* Removed registered Proxy Objects from SharedMemoryManager.
* Removed shareable_wrap().
* Removed shareable_wrap() and dangling references to it.
* For consistency added __reduce__ to key classes.
* Fix for potential race condition on Windows for O_CREX.
* Remove unused imports.
* Update access to kernel32 on Windows per feedback from eryksun.
* Moved kernel32 calls to _winapi.
* Removed ShareableList.copy as redundant.
* Changes to _winapi use from eryksun feedback.
* Adopt simpler SharedMemory API, collapsing PosixSharedMemory and WindowsNamedSharedMemory into one.
* Fix missing docstring on class, add test for ignoring size when attaching.
* Moved SharedMemoryManager to managers module, tweak to fragile test.
* Tweak to exception in OpenFileMapping suggested by eryksun.
* Mark a few dangling bits as private as suggested by Giampaolo.
Fix invalid function cast warnings with gcc 8
for method conventions different from METH_NOARGS, METH_O and
METH_VARARGS excluding Argument Clinic generated code.
METH_NOARGS functions need only a single argument but they are cast
into a PyCFunction, which takes two arguments. This triggers an
invalid function cast warning in gcc8 due to the argument mismatch.
Fix this by adding a dummy unused argument.
Fix the following Coverity warning:
>>> CID 1420038: Control flow issues (DEADCODE)
>>> Execution cannot reach this statement: "res = sem_trywait(self->han...".
321 res = sem_trywait(self->handle);
The deadcode was introduced by the commit
c872d39d32.
* 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().
Also, add a multiprocessing.connection.wait(rlist, timeout=None) function
for polling multiple objects at once. Patch by sbt.
Complete changelist from sbt's patch:
* Adds a wait(rlist, timeout=None) function for polling multiple
objects at once. On Unix this is just a wrapper for
select(rlist, [], [], timeout=None).
* Removes use of the SentinelReady exception and the sentinels argument
to certain methods. concurrent.futures.process has been changed to
use wait() instead of SentinelReady.
* Fixes bugs concerning PipeConnection.poll() and messages of zero
length.
* Fixes PipeListener.accept() to call ConnectNamedPipe() with
overlapped=True.
* Fixes Queue.empty() and SimpleQueue.empty() so that they are
threadsafe on Windows.
* Now PipeConnection.poll() and wait() will not modify the pipe except
possibly by consuming a zero length message. (Previously poll()
could consume a partial message.)
* All of multiprocesing's pipe related blocking functions/methods are
now interruptible by SIGINT on Windows.
sockets, and set FILE_FLAG_FIRST_PIPE_INSTANCE on named pipes, to make sure two
listeners can't bind to the same socket/pipe (or any existing socket/pipe).
