Instead of be limited just by the size of addressable memory (2**63
bytes), Python integers are now also limited by the number of bits, so
the number of bit now always fit in a 64-bit integer.
Both limits are much larger than what might be available in practice,
so it doesn't affect users.
_PyLong_NumBits() and _PyLong_Frexp() are now always successful.
* The result has type Py_ssize_t, not intptr_t.
* Type cast between unsigned and signdet integer types should be explicit.
* Downcasting should be explicit.
* Fix integer overflow check in sum().
Remove the const qualifier of the argument of functions:
* _PyLong_IsCompact()
* _PyLong_CompactValue()
Py_TYPE() argument is not const.
Fix the compiler warning:
Include/cpython/longintrepr.h: In function ‘_PyLong_CompactValue’:
Include/pyport.h:19:31: error: cast discards ‘const’ qualifier from
pointer target type [-Werror=cast-qual]
(...)
Include/cpython/longintrepr.h:133:30: note: in expansion of macro
‘Py_TYPE’
assert(PyType_HasFeature(Py_TYPE(op), Py_TPFLAGS_LONG_SUBCLASS));
Remove <ctype.h> in C files which don't use it; only sre.c and
_decimal.c still use it.
Remove _PY_PORT_CTYPE_UTF8_ISSUE code from pyport.h:
* Code added by commit b5047fd019
in 2004 for MacOSX and FreeBSD.
* Test removed by commit 52ddaefb6b
in 2007, since Python str type now uses locale independent
functions like Py_ISALPHA() and Py_TOLOWER() and the Unicode
database.
Modules/_sre/sre.c replaces _PY_PORT_CTYPE_UTF8_ISSUE with new
functions: sre_isalnum(), sre_tolower(), sre_toupper().
Remove unused includes:
* _localemodule.c: remove <stdio.h>.
* getargs.c: remove <float.h>.
* dynload_win.c: remove <direct.h>, it no longer calls _getcwd()
since commit fb1f68ed7c (in 2001).
This is the implementation of PEP683
Motivation:
The PR introduces the ability to immortalize instances in CPython which bypasses reference counting. Tagging objects as immortal allows up to skip certain operations when we know that the object will be around for the entire execution of the runtime.
Note that this by itself will bring a performance regression to the runtime due to the extra reference count checks. However, this brings the ability of having truly immutable objects that are useful in other contexts such as immutable data sharing between sub-interpreters.
* Eliminate all remaining uses of Py_SIZE and Py_SET_SIZE on PyLongObject, adding asserts.
* Change layout of size/sign bits in longobject to support future addition of immortal ints and tagged medium ints.
* Add functions to hide some internals of long object, and for setting sign and digit count.
* Replace uses of IS_MEDIUM_VALUE macro with _PyLong_IsCompact().
Make docstrings for `as_integer_ratio` consistent across types, and document that
the returned pair is always normalized (coprime integers, with positive denominator).

Fix the behaviour of the `__sizeof__` method (and hence the results returned by `sys.getsizeof`) for subclasses of `int`. Previously, `int` subclasses gave identical results to the `int` base class, ignoring the presence of the instance dictionary.

* Issue: gh-101266
<!-- /gh-issue-number -->
This PR fixes object allocation in long_subtype_new to ensure that there's at least one digit in all cases, and makes sure that the value of that digit is copied over from the source long.
Needs backport to 3.11, but not any further: the change to require at least one digit was only introduced for Python 3.11.
Fixes#101037.
Fixes behaviour where int (and subtypes like bool) __sizeof__ under-reports true size as it did not take into account the size 1 `ob_digit` array for the zero int.

This improves the lives of type annotation users of `float` - which type checkers implicitly treat as `int|float` because that is what most code actually wants. Before this change a `.is_integer()` method could not be assumed to exist on things annotated as `: float` due to the method not existing on both types.
* Properly decref on _pylong import error.
* Improve the error message on _pylong TypeError.
* Fix the assertion error in pydebug builds to be a TypeError.
* Tie the return value comments together.
These are minor followups to issues not caught among the reviewers on
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/96673.
Add Python implementations of certain longobject.c functions. These use
asymptotically faster algorithms that can be used for operations on
integers with many digits. In those cases, the performance overhead of
the Python implementation is not significant since the asymptotic
behavior is what dominates runtime. Functions provided by this module
should be considered private and not part of any public API.
