Move private debug _PyObject functions to the internal C API
(pycore_object.h):
* _PyDebugAllocatorStats()
* _PyObject_CheckConsistency()
* _PyObject_DebugTypeStats()
* _PyObject_IsFreed()
No longer export most of these functions, except of
_PyObject_IsFreed().
Move test functions using _PyObject_IsFreed() from _testcapi to
_testinternalcapi. check_pyobject_is_freed() test no longer catch
_testcapi.error: the tested function cannot raise _testcapi.error.
Move the private _PyInterpreterID C API to the internal C API: add a
new pycore_interp_id.h header file.
Remove Include/interpreteridobject.h and
Include/cpython/interpreteridobject.h header files.
* Add PyDict_GetItemRef() and PyDict_GetItemStringRef() functions.
Add these functions to the stable ABI version 3.13.
* Add unit tests on the PyDict C API in test_capi.
There was a slight race in _Py_ClearFileSystemEncoding() (when called from _Py_SetFileSystemEncoding()), between freeing the value and setting the variable to NULL, which occasionally caused crashes when multiple isolated interpreters were used. (Notably, I saw at least 10 different, seemingly unrelated spooky-action-at-a-distance, ways this crashed. Yay, free threading!) We avoid the problem by only setting the global variables with the main interpreter (i.e. runtime init).
A static (process-global) str object must only have its "interned" state cleared when no longer interned in any interpreters. They are the only ones that can be shared by interpreters so we don't have to worry about any other str objects.
We trigger clearing the state with the main interpreter, since no other interpreters may exist at that point and _PyUnicode_ClearInterned() is only called during interpreter finalization.
We do not address here the fact that a string will only be interned in the first interpreter that interns it. In any subsequent interpreters str.state.interned is already set so _PyUnicode_InternInPlace() will skip it. That needs to be addressed separately from fixing the crasher.
* Convert PyObject_DelAttr() and PyObject_DelAttrString() macros to
functions.
* Add PyObject_DelAttr() and PyObject_DelAttrString() functions to
the stable ABI.
* Replace PyObject_SetAttr(obj, name, NULL) with
PyObject_DelAttr(obj, name).
Remove the following functions from the C API, move them to the internal C
API: add a new pycore_modsupport.h internal header file:
* PyModule_CreateInitialized()
* _PyArg_NoKwnames()
* _Py_VaBuildStack()
No longer export these functions.
Remove the following private functions of the C API:
* _PyCodecInfo_GetIncrementalDecoder()
* _PyCodecInfo_GetIncrementalEncoder()
* _PyCodec_DecodeText()
* _PyCodec_EncodeText()
* _PyCodec_Forget()
* _PyCodec_Lookup()
* _PyCodec_LookupTextEncoding()
Move these functions to a new pycore_codecs.h internal header file.
These functions are no longer exported.
PyTuple_SET_ITEM() and PyList_SET_ITEM() now check the index argument
with an assertion if Python is built in debug mode or is built with
assertions.
* list_extend() and _PyList_AppendTakeRef() now set the list size
before calling PyList_SET_ITEM().
* PyStructSequence_GetItem() and PyStructSequence_SetItem() now check
the index argument: must be lesser than REAL_SIZE(op).
* PyStructSequence_GET_ITEM() and PyStructSequence_SET_ITEM() are now
aliases to PyStructSequence_GetItem() and
PyStructSequence_SetItem().
Remove the following private functions from the public C API:
* _Py_CheckFunctionResult()
* _PyObject_CallMethod()
* _PyObject_CallMethodId()
* _PyObject_CallMethodIdNoArgs()
* _PyObject_CallMethodIdObjArgs()
* _PyObject_CallMethodIdOneArg()
* _PyObject_MakeTpCall()
* _PyObject_VectorcallMethodId()
* _PyStack_AsDict()
Move these functions to the internal C API (pycore_call.h).
No longer export the following functions:
* _PyObject_Call()
* _PyObject_CallMethod()
* _PyObject_CallMethodId()
* _PyObject_CallMethodIdObjArgs()
* _PyObject_Call_Prepend()
* _PyObject_FastCallDictTstate()
* _PyStack_AsDict()
The following functions are still exported for stdlib shared
extensions:
* _Py_CheckFunctionResult()
* _PyObject_MakeTpCall()
Mark the following internal functions as extern:
* _PyStack_UnpackDict()
* _PyStack_UnpackDict_Free()
* _PyStack_UnpackDict_FreeNoDecRef()
Remove the following functions from the public C API:
* _PyObject_RealIsInstance()
* _PyObject_RealIsSubclass()
* _Py_add_one_to_index_F()
* _Py_add_one_to_index_C()
Move _PyObject_RealIsInstance() and _PyObject_RealIsSubclass() to the
internal C API (pycore_abstract.h) and no longer export their symbols
(in libpython).
Make _Py_add_one_to_index_F() and _Py_add_one_to_index_C() functions
static: no longer export them.
Remove _PyObject_HasLen() and _PySequence_IterSearch() functions from
the public C API: move them to the internal C API
(pycore_abstract.h).
No longer export these symbols (in libpython).
Remove also unused pycore_initconfig.h include in typeobject.c.
Remove private _PySequence_BytesToCharpArray() and
_Py_FreeCharPArray() functions from the public C API: move these
functions from Objects/abstract.c to Modules/_posixsubprocess.c.
Remove old aliases which were kept backwards compatibility with
Python 3.8:
* _PyObject_CallMethodNoArgs()
* _PyObject_CallMethodOneArg()
* _PyObject_CallOneArg()
* _PyObject_FastCallDict()
* _PyObject_Vectorcall()
* _PyObject_VectorcallMethod()
* _PyVectorcall_Function()
Update code which used these aliases to use new names.
These functions are broken by design because they discard any exceptions raised
inside, including MemoryError and KeyboardInterrupt. They should not be
used in new code.
* Replace PyWeakref_GET_OBJECT() with _PyWeakref_GET_REF().
* _sqlite/blob.c now holds a strong reference to the blob object
while calling close_blob().
* _xidregistry_find_type() now holds a strong reference to registered
while using it.
