* Fix integer overflow in os.readv(), os.writev(), os.preadv()
and os.pwritev() and in os.sendfile() with headers or trailers
arguments (on BSD-based OSes and MacOS).
* Fix sending the part of the file in os.sendfile() on MacOS.
Using the trailers argument could cause sending more bytes from
the input file than was specified.
Thanks Ned Deily for testing on 32-bit MacOS.
* help(hashlib) didn't work because of incorrect module name in blake2b and
blake2s classes.
* Constructors blake2*(), sha3_*(), shake_*() and keccak_*() incorrectly
accepted keyword argument "string" for binary data, but documented as
accepting the "data" keyword argument. Now this parameter is positional-only.
* Keyword-only parameters in blake2b() and blake2s() were not documented as
keyword-only.
* Default value for some parameters of blake2b() and blake2s() was None,
which is not acceptable value.
* The length argument for shake_*.digest() was wrapped out to 32 bits.
* The argument for shake_128.digest() and shake_128.hexdigest() was not
positional-only as intended.
* TypeError messages for incorrect arguments in all constructors sha3_*(),
shake_*() and keccak_*() incorrectly referred to sha3_224.
Also made the following enhancements:
* More accurately specified input and result types for strings, bytes and
bytes-like objects.
* Unified positional parameter names for update() and constructors.
* Improved formatting.
This list is never used: if detect_types is on, this list will be
replaced with another one before row_cast_map is used, if
detect_types is off, row_cast_map is not used at all.
* Config: Rename ignore_environment field to use_environment.
* _PyCoreConfig_Read(): if isolated is set, use_environment and
site_import are now always set to 0.
* Inline pymain_free_raw() into pymain_free()
* Move config_init_warnoptions() call into pymain_read_conf_impl()
* _PyCoreConfig_Read(): don't replace values if they are already set:
faulthandler, pycache_prefix, home.
* Inline cmdline_get_env_flags() into config_read_env_vars():
_PyCoreConfig_Read() now reads much more environment variables like
PYTHONVERBOSE.
* Allow to override faulthandler and allocator even if dev_mode=1.
PYTHONMALLOC is now the priority over PYTHONDEVMODE.
* Fix _PyCoreConfig_Copy(): copy also install_signal_handlers,
coerce_c_locale and coerce_c_locale_warn
* _PyCoreConfig.install_signal_handlers default is now 1: install
signals by default
* Fix also a compiler warning: don't define _PyPathConfig type twice.
On Windows, passing a negative value to local results in an OSError because localtime_s on Windows does not support negative timestamps. Unfortunately this means that fold detection for timestamps between 0 and max_fold_seconds will result in this OSError since we subtract max_fold_seconds from the timestamp to detect a fold. However, since we know there haven't been any folds in the interval [0, max_fold_seconds) in any timezone, we can hackily just forego fold detection for this time range on Windows.
* If _Py_InitializeCore() is called twice, the second call now copies
and apply (partially) the new configuration.
* Rename _Py_CommandLineDetails to _PyCmdline
* Move more code into pymain_init(). The core configuration created
by Py_Main() is new destroyed before running Python to reduce the
memory footprint.
* _Py_InitializeCore() now returns the created interpreter.
_Py_InitializeMainInterpreter() now expects an interpreter.
* Remove _Py_InitializeEx_Private(): _freeze_importlib now uses
_Py_InitializeFromConfig()
* _PyCoreConfig_InitPathConfig() now only computes the path
configuration if needed.
Add more fields to _PyCoreConfig:
* _check_hash_pycs_mode
* bytes_warning
* debug
* inspect
* interactive
* legacy_windows_fs_encoding
* legacy_windows_stdio
* optimization_level
* quiet
* unbuffered_stdio
* user_site_directory
* verbose
* write_bytecode
Changes:
* Remove pymain_get_global_config() and pymain_set_global_config()
which became useless. These functions have been replaced by
_PyCoreConfig_GetGlobalConfig() and
_PyCoreConfig_SetGlobalConfig().
* sys.flags.dont_write_bytecode value is now restricted to 1 even if
-B option is specified multiple times on the command line.
* PyThreadState_Clear() now uses the config from the current
interpreter rather than using global Py_VerboseFlag
* _PyCoreConfig: add isolated and site_import attributes
* Replace Py_IgnoreEnvironment with config->ignore_environment when
reading the current configuration
* _PyCoreConfig_Read() now sets ignore_environment, utf8_mode,
isolated and site_import from Py_IgnoreEnvironment, Py_UTF8Mode,
Py_IsolatedFlag and Py_NoSiteFlag
* _Py_InitializeCore() now sets Py_xxx flags from the configuration
* pymain_read_conf() now uses _PyCoreConfig_Copy() to save/restore
the configuration.
* Rename _disable_importlib of _PyCoreConfig to _install_importlib
* _PyCoreConfig_SetGlobalConfig() now also set
Py_HashRandomizationFlag
* Replace !Py_NoSiteFlag with core_config->site_import
* _PyCoreConfig_Read() no longer directly modifies Py_IsolatedFlag
and Py_NoSiteFlag global configuration flags. The function now
requires two pointers to integer, so these flags can be set later,
to avoid side effets in _PyCoreConfig_Read().
* pathconfig_global_init() now leaves Py_IsolatedFlag and
Py_NoSiteFlag unchanged.
* Fix pathconfig_global_init(): avoid computing the path
configuration twice, use _PyCoreConfig_SetPathConfig().
Rework _PyCoreConfig_Read() function which *reads* core configuration
to not *modify* the path configuration.
A new _PyCoreConfig_SetPathConfig() function now recreates the path
configuration from the core configuration. This function is now
called very late in _Py_InitializeCore(), just before calling
initimport().
Changes:
* Add _PyCoreConfig.dll_path
* Py_SetPath() now fails with a fatal python error on memory
allocation failure.
* Rename _PyPathConfig_Calculate() to _PyPathConfig_Calculate_impl()
* Replace _PyPathConfig_Init() with _PyPathConfig_Calculate(): the
function now requires a _PyPathConfig
* Add _PyPathConfig_SetGlobal() to set the _Py_path_config global
variable.
* Add _PyCoreConfig_InitPathConfig(): compute the path configuration
* Add _PyCoreConfig_SetPathConfig(): set path configuration from core
configuration
* Rename wstrlist_append() to _Py_wstrlist_append()
* _Py_wstrlist_append() now handles integer overflow.
Py_Main() can again be called after Py_Initialize(), as in Python
3.6. The new configuration is ignored, except of
_PyMainInterpreterConfig.argv which is used to update sys.argv.
bpo-32430: Rename Modules/Setup.dist to Modules/Setup
Remove the necessity to copy the former manually to the latter when updating the local source tree.
They can be exposed when some C API calls fail due to lack of
memory.
* Failed Py_BuildValue() could cause an assertion error in the
following TextIOWrapper.tell().
* input_chunk could be decrefed twice in TextIOWrapper.seek()
after failed Py_BuildValue().
* initvalue could leak in StringIO.__getstate__() after failed
PyDict_Copy().
* `flags` is indeed deprecated, but there is a validation on its value for
backwards compatibility reasons. This adds mention of this in the docs.
* The docs say that `sizehint` is deprecated and ignored, but it is still
used when `epoll_create1()` is unavailable. This adds mention of this in
the docs.
* `sizehint=-1` is acceptable again, and is replaced with `FD_SETSIZE-1`.
This is needed to have a default value available at the Python level,
since `FD_SETSIZE` is not exposed to Python. (see: bpo-31938)
* Reject `sizehint=0` since it is invalid to pass on to `epoll_create()`.
The relevant tests have also been updated.
