PyEval_AcquireLock() and PyEval_AcquireThread() now
terminate the current thread if called while the interpreter is
finalizing, making them consistent with PyEval_RestoreThread(),
Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS, and PyGILState_Ensure().
In the process of converting the date.fromtimestamp function to use
argument clinic in GH-8535, the C API for PyDate_FromTimestamp was
inadvertently changed to expect a timestamp object rather than an
argument tuple.
This PR fixes this backwards-incompatible change by adding a new wrapper
function for the C API function that unwraps the argument tuple and
passes it to the underlying function.
This PR also adds tests for both PyDate_FromTimestamp and
PyDateTime_FromTimestamp to prevent any further regressions.
regrtest now always detects uncollectable objects. Previously, the
check was only enabled by --findleaks. The check now also works with
-jN/--multiprocess N.
--findleaks becomes a deprecated alias to --fail-env-changed.
Rewrite run_tests_multiprocess() function as a new MultiprocessRunner
class with multiple methods to better report errors and stop
immediately when needed.
Changes:
* Worker processes are now killed immediately if tests are
interrupted or if a test does crash (CHILD_ERROR): worker
processes are killed.
* Rewrite how errors in a worker thread are reported to
the main thread. No longer ignore BaseException or parsing errors
silently.
* Remove 'finished' variable: use worker.is_alive() instead
* Always compute omitted tests. Add Regrtest.get_executed() method.
Py_FinalizeEx() now clears _PyRuntime.warnings variables and
_PyRuntime.exitfuncs.
Changes:
* Add _PyWarnings_Fini(): called by Py_FinalizeEx()
* call_ll_exitfuncs() now clears _PyRuntime.exitfuncs while iterating
on it (on backward order).
* Add TestResult and MultiprocessResult types to ensure that results
always have the same fields.
* runtest() now handles KeyboardInterrupt
* accumulate_result() and format_test_result() now takes a TestResult
* cleanup_test_droppings() is now called by runtest() and mark the
test as ENV_CHANGED if the test leaks support.TESTFN file.
* runtest() now includes code "around" the test in the test timing
* Add print_warning() in test.libregrtest.utils to standardize how
libregrtest logs warnings to ease parsing the test output.
* support.unload() is now called with abstest rather than test_name
* Rename 'test' variable/parameter to 'test_name'
* dash_R(): remove unused the_module parameter
* Remove unused imports
On Unix, C extensions are no longer linked to libpython.
It is now possible to load a C extension built using a shared library
Python with a statically linked Python.
When Python is embedded, libpython must not be loaded with
RTLD_LOCAL, but RTLD_GLOBAL instead. Previously, using RTLD_LOCAL, it
was already not possible to load C extensions which were not linked
to libpython, like C extensions of the standard library built by the
"*shared*" section of Modules/Setup.
distutils, python-config and python-config.py have been modified.
Document that subprocess.Popen no longer raise an exception on error
like missing program on very specific platforms when using
os.posix_spawn() is used.
bpo-28552, bpo-7774: Fix distutils.sysconfig if sys.executable is
None or an empty string: use os.getcwd() to initialize project_base.
Fix also the distutils build command: don't use sys.executable if
it's evaluated as false (None or empty string).
Release build and debug build are now ABI compatible: the Py_DEBUG
define no longer implies Py_TRACE_REFS define which introduces the
only ABI incompatibility.
A new "./configure --with-trace-refs" build option is now required to
get Py_TRACE_REFS define which adds sys.getobjects() function and
PYTHONDUMPREFS environment variable.
Changes:
* Add ./configure --with-trace-refs
* Py_DEBUG no longer implies Py_TRACE_REFS
Py_InitializeEx() now uses a runtime variable passed to subfunctions,
rather than working directly on the global variable _PyRuntime.
Add 'runtime' parameter to _PyCoreConfig_Write(), _PySys_Create(),
_PySys_InitMain(), _PyGILState_Init(),
emit_stderr_warning_for_legacy_locale() and other subfunctions.
* Add a 'runtime' variable to Py_FinalizeEx() rather than working
directly on the global variable _PyRuntime
* Add a 'runtime' parameter to _PyGC_Fini(), _PyGILState_Fini()
and call_ll_exitfuncs()
The PyOS_AfterFork_Child() function now pass a 'runtime' parameter to
subfunctions.
* Fix _PyRuntimeState_ReInitThreads(): use the correct memory allocator
* Add runtime parameter to _PyRuntimeState_ReInitThreads(),
_PyGILState_Reinit() and _PyInterpreterState_DeleteExceptMain()
* Move _PyGILState_Reinit() to the internal C API.
* Add 'runtime' parameter to _PyThreadState_Init()
* Add 'gilstate' parameter to _PyGILState_NoteThreadState()
* Move _PyThreadState_Init() and _PyThreadState_DeleteExcept()
to the internal C API.
"./configure --with-pymalloc" no longer adds the "m" flag to SOABI
(sys.implementation.cache_tag).
Enabling or disabling pymalloc has no impact on the ABI.
Change test_time.test_monotonic() to test only the lower bound of elapsed time
after a sleep command rather than the upper bound. This prevents unnecessary
test failures on slow buildbots. Patch by Victor Stinner.
