OpenSSL 1.1 has introduced a new API to set the minimum and maximum
supported protocol version. The API is easier to use than the old
OP_NO_TLS1 option flags, too.
Since OpenSSL has no call to set minimum version to highest supported,
the implementation emulate maximum_version = MINIMUM_SUPPORTED and
minimum_version = MAXIMUM_SUPPORTED by figuring out the minumum and
maximum supported version at compile time.

Direct instantiation of SSLSocket and SSLObject objects is now prohibited.
The constructors were never documented, tested, or designed as public
constructors. The SSLSocket constructor had limitations. For example it was
not possible to enabled hostname verification except was
ssl_version=PROTOCOL_TLS_CLIENT with cert_reqs=CERT_REQUIRED.
SSLContext.wrap_socket() and SSLContext.wrap_bio are the recommended API
to construct SSLSocket and SSLObject instances. ssl.wrap_socket() is
also deprecated.
The only test case for direct instantiation was added a couple of days
ago for IDNA testing.

The ssl module function ssl.wrap_socket() has been de-emphasized
and deprecated in favor of the more secure and efficient
SSLContext.wrap_socket() method.

* bpo-32947: OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre1 / TLS 1.3 fixes
Misc fixes and workarounds for compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1-pre1 and
TLS 1.3 support. With OpenSSL 1.1.1, Python negotiates TLS 1.3 by
default. Some test cases only apply to TLS 1.2. Other tests currently
fail because the threaded or async test servers stop after failure.
I'm going to address these issues when OpenSSL 1.1.1 reaches beta.
OpenSSL 1.1.1 has added a new option OP_ENABLE_MIDDLEBOX_COMPAT for TLS
1.3. The feature is enabled by default for maximum compatibility with
broken middle boxes. Users should be able to disable the hack and CPython's test suite needs
it to verify default options.

Previously, the ssl module stored international domain names (IDNs)
as U-labels. This is problematic for a number of reasons -- for
example, it made it impossible for users to use a different version
of IDNA than the one built into Python.
After this change, we always convert to A-labels as soon as possible,
and use them for all internal processing. In particular, server_hostname
attribute is now an A-label, and on the server side there's a new
sni_callback that receives the SNI servername as an A-label rather than
a U-label.
Adapt documentation for `copyright` and `credits` to reality. Previously, the documentation implied that all each of `copyright`,
`credits`, and `license`, would print a message to call the object in order to see the full text. In reality, only `license` exhibits this
behaviour, and `copyright` and `credit` print their full text either when printed, displayed, or called.
When `__getattr__` is implemented, attribute lookup will always fall back to that,
even if the initial failure comes from `__getattribute__` or a descriptor's `__get__`
method (including property methods).
Modify RE examples in documentation to use raw strings to prevent DeprecationWarning.
Add text to REGEX HOWTO to highlight the deprecation. Approved by Serhiy Storchaka.
In the tutorial about the Generator expression, there is an example with
a dict comprehension and not with a generator expression, just removed
the code.
The f-string example for using datetime format specifier does not match the given output.
Changed the format from %b to %B so it matches the output of "January".
This allows the compression level to be specified when writing zipfiles
(for the entire file *and* overridden on a per-file basis).

Fix socket(fileno=fd) by auto-detecting the socket's family, type,
and proto from the file descriptor. The auto-detection can be overruled
by passing in family, type, and proto explicitly.
Without the fix, all socket except for TCP/IP over IPv4 are basically broken:
>>> s = socket.create_connection(('www.python.org', 443))
>>> s
<socket.socket fd=3, family=AddressFamily.AF_INET6, type=SocketKind.SOCK_STREAM, proto=6, laddr=('2003:58:bc4a:3b00:56ee:75ff:fe47:ca7b', 59730, 0, 0), raddr=('2a04:4e42:1b::223', 443, 0, 0)>
>>> socket.socket(fileno=s.fileno())
<socket.socket fd=3, family=AddressFamily.AF_INET, type=SocketKind.SOCK_STREAM, proto=0, laddr=('2003:58:bc4a:3b00::%2550471192', 59730, 0, 2550471192), raddr=('2a04:4e42:1b:0:700c:e70b:ff7f:0%2550471192', 443, 0, 2550471192)>

Until now Python used a hard coded white list of default TLS cipher
suites. The old approach has multiple downsides. OpenSSL's default
selection was completely overruled. Python did neither benefit from new
cipher suites (ChaCha20, TLS 1.3 suites) nor blacklisted cipher suites.
For example we used to re-enable 3DES.
Python now defaults to OpenSSL DEFAULT cipher suite selection and black
lists all unwanted ciphers. Downstream vendors can override the default
cipher list with --with-ssl-default-suites.

bpo-31399: Let OpenSSL verify hostname and IP
The ssl module now uses OpenSSL's X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host() and
X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_ip() API to verify hostname and IP addresses.
* Remove match_hostname calls
* Check for libssl with set1_host, libssl must provide X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host()
* Add documentation for OpenSSL 1.0.2 requirement
* Don't support OpenSSL special mode with a leading dot, e.g. ".example.org" matches "www.example.org". It's not standard conform.
* Add hostname_checks_common_name

Make it clear that setting __class__ on a module has worked since 3.5,
but support for __getattr__ and __dir__ on module instances requires 3.7+
Patch by Cheryl Sabella.
* Document `from __future__ import annotations`
* Provide plumbing and tests for `from __future__ import annotations`
* Implement unparsing the AST back to string form
This is required for PEP 563 and as such only implements a part of the
unparsing process that covers expressions.
* bpo-32662: Implement Server.start_serving() and Server.serve_forever()
New methods:
* Server.start_serving(),
* Server.serve_forever(), and
* Server.is_serving().
Add 'start_serving' keyword parameter to loop.create_server() and
loop.create_unix_server().
* Add timezone to datetime C API
* Add documentation for timezone C API macros
* Add dedicated tests for datetime type check macros
* Remove superfluous C API test
* Drop support for TimeZoneType in datetime C API
* Expose UTC singleton to the datetime C API
* Update datetime C-API documentation to include links
* Add reference count information for timezone constructors
To support reproducible builds, the setting of of SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH triggers the py_compile module -- and by extension, compileall -- to forcibly compile with hash-based .pyc files. This eliminates the possibility of timestamp-based .pyc files which vary between builds.
PyUnicode_DecodeLocaleAndSize(), PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() and
PyUnicode_EncodeLocale() now use always use the UTF-8 encoding on
Android, instead of the current locale encoding.
On Android API 19, mbstowcs() and wcstombs() are broken and cannot be
used.
* bpo-31801: Enum: add _ignore_ as class option
_ignore_ is a list, or white-space seperated str, of names that will not
be candidates for members; these names, and _ignore_ itself, are removed
from the final class.
* bpo-31801: Enum: add documentation for _ignore_
* bpo-31801: Enum: remove trailing whitespace
* bpo-31801: Enum: fix bulleted list format
* bpo-31801: add version added for _ignore_
* Add coro.cr_origin and sys.set_coroutine_origin_tracking_depth
* Use coroutine origin information in the unawaited coroutine warning
* Stop using set_coroutine_wrapper in asyncio debug mode
* In BaseEventLoop.set_debug, enable debugging in the correct thread
* Add _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric() function: decode decimal_point and
thousands_sep fields of localeconv() from the LC_NUMERIC encoding,
rather than decoding from the LC_CTYPE encoding.
* Modify locale.localeconv() and "n" formatter of str.format() (for
int, float and complex to use _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric()
internally.
Modify locale.localeconv(), time.tzname, os.strerror() and other
functions to ignore the UTF-8 Mode: always use the current locale
encoding.
Changes:
* Add _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() and _Py_EncodeLocaleEx(). On decoding or
encoding error, they return the position of the error and an error
message which are used to raise Unicode errors in
PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() and PyUnicode_EncodeLocale().
* Replace _Py_DecodeCurrentLocale() with _Py_DecodeLocaleEx().
* PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() now uses _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() for all
cases, especially for the strict error handler.
* Add _Py_DecodeUTF8Ex(): return more information on decoding error
and supports the strict error handler.
* Rename _Py_EncodeUTF8_surrogateescape() to _Py_EncodeUTF8Ex().
* Replace _Py_EncodeCurrentLocale() with _Py_EncodeLocaleEx().
* Ignore the UTF-8 mode to encode/decode localeconv(), strerror()
and time zone name.
* Remove PyUnicode_DecodeLocale(), PyUnicode_DecodeLocaleAndSize()
and PyUnicode_EncodeLocale() now ignore the UTF-8 mode: always use
the "current" locale.
* Remove _PyUnicode_DecodeCurrentLocale(),
_PyUnicode_DecodeCurrentLocaleAndSize() and
_PyUnicode_EncodeCurrentLocale().
`os.path.is*()` can return False if the file can't be accessed.
The behaviour is documented in details in `os.path.exists()`.
Link to `os.path.exists()` from `os.path.is*()`.
In lexical analysis reference documentation, the internal link to
the string literal concatenation section was written as`.. _string-catenation:`.
Changed that to `.. _string-concatenation:`.
- primary change is to add a new default filter entry for
'default::DeprecationWarning:__main__'
- secondary change is an internal one to cope with plain
strings in the warning module's internal filter list
(this avoids the need to create a compiled regex object
early on during interpreter startup)
- assorted documentation updates, including many more
examples of configuring the warnings settings
- additional tests to ensure that both the pure Python and
the C accelerated warnings modules have the expected
default configuration
Add a new argument "-m" to the pdb module to allow
users to run `python -m pdb -m my_module_name`.
This relies on private APIs in the runpy module to work,
but we can get away with that since they're both part of
the standard library and can be updated together if
the runpy internals get refactored.
This module has never been enabled by default, never worked correctly
on x86-64, and caused ABI problems that caused C extension
compatibility. See bpo-29137 for details/discussion.
