platform.libc_ver() now uses os.confstr('CS_GNU_LIBC_VERSION') if
available and the *executable* parameter is not set. The default
value of the libc_ver() *executable* parameter becomes None.
Quick benchmark on Fedora 29:
python3 -m perf command ./python -S -c 'import platform; platform.libc_ver()'
94.9 ms +- 4.3 ms -> 33.2 ms +- 1.4 ms: 2.86x faster (-65%)
On Travis CI, FTP tests of test_urllib2net randomly fail with "425
Security: Bad IP connecting".
test.pythoninfo now also logs TRAVIS environment variable.
Only platform._syscmd_file() uses subprocess. Move subprocess import
inside this function to reduce the number of imports at Python
startup.
Remove also warnings import which is no longer needed.
When using link time optimizations, the -flto flag is passed to
BASECFLAGS, which makes it propagate to distutils. Those flags
should be reserved for the interpreter and the stdlib extension
modules only, thus moving those flags to CFLAGS_NODIST.
Fixes `loop.add_writer` and `loop.add_signal_handler` method documentation to correctly reference the callback parameter from method signature.

* PyInit_time() now returns NULL if an exception is raised.
* Rename PyInit_timezone() to init_timezone(). "PyInit_" prefix is
a special prefix for function initializing a module.
init_timezone() doesn't initialize a module and the function is not
exported.
Replace strncpy() with memcpy() in structseq_repr() to fix the
following compiler warning:
Objects/structseq.c:187:5: warning: 'strncpy' specified bound depends on the length of the source argument [-Wstringop-overflow=]
strncpy(pbuf, typ->tp_name, len);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Objects/structseq.c:185:11: note: length computed here
len = strlen(typ->tp_name) > TYPE_MAXSIZE ? TYPE_MAXSIZE :
The function writes the terminating NUL byte later.
get_gmtoff() now returns time_t instead of int to fix the following
Visual Studio warning:
Modules\timemodule.c(1183): warning C4244: 'return':
conversion from 'time_t' to 'int', possible loss of data
Modify asyncio tests to utilize the certificates from the test directory
instead of its own set, as they are the same and with each update they had
to be updated as well.
Fix an undefined behaviour in the pthread implementation of
PyThread_start_new_thread(): add a function wrapper to always return
NULL.
Add pythread_callback struct and pythread_wrapper() to thread_pthread.h.
Replace strncpy() with memcpy() in call_readline() to fix the
following warning, the NUL byte is written manually just after:
Modules/readline.c: In function ‘call_readline’:
Modules/readline.c:1303:9: warning: ‘strncpy’ output truncated before
terminating nul copying as many bytes from a string as its length
[-Wstringop-truncation]
strncpy(p, q, n);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Modules/readline.c:1279:9: note: length computed here
n = strlen(p);
^~~~~~~~~
* Replace testInheritFlags() with two tests:
testInheritFlagsBlocking() and testInheritFlagsTimeout()
to test different default socket timeout. Moreover, the test now
checks sock.gettimeout() rather than a functional test on recv().
* Replace time.time() with time.monotonic()
* Add socket_setdefaulttimeout() context manager to restore the
default timeout when the test completes.
* Remove testConnect(): accept() wasn't blocking and testAccept()
already tests non-blocking accept().
* Remove accept() functional test from testInitNonBlocking():
already tested by testAccept()
* Rewrite testSetBlocking() with a new assert_sock_timeout() method
* Use addCleanup() and context manager to close sockets
* Replace assertTrue(x < y) with assertLess(x, y)
testAccept() and testRecv() of test_socket.NonBlockingTCPTests have a
race condition: time.sleep() is used as a weak synchronization
primitive and the tests fail randomly on slow buildbots.
Use a reliable threading.Event to fix these tests.
Other changes:
* Replace send() with sendall()
* Expect specific BlockingIOError rather than generic OSError
* Add a timeout to select() in testAccept() and testRecv()
* Use addCleanup() to close sockets
* Use assertRaises()
Remove platform.popen() function, it was deprecated since Python 3.3:
use os.popen() instead.
Rename also the "Removed" section to "API and Feature Removals"
of What's New in Python 3.8.
Move tupleobject.h code surrounded by "#ifndef Py_LIMITED_API"
to a new Include/cpython/tupleobject.h header file.
Add cpython/ header files to Makefile.pre.in and pythoncore project
of PCbuild.
Fix memory leak in PyUnicode_EncodeLocale() and
PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault() on error handling.
Changes:
* Fix unicode_encode_locale() error handling
* Fix test_codecs.LocaleCodecTest
Fix WithThreadsTestPool.test_wrapped_exception()
of test_multiprocessing_fork: join the pool.
WithThreadsTestPool.test_del_pool() is now also decorated
with @support.reap_threads.
Fix the following clang warning:
Include/cpython/pystate.h:217:3: warning: redefinition of
typedef 'PyThreadState' is a C11 feature [-Wtypedef-redefinition]
