Move the bytes_methods.h header file to the internal C API as
pycore_bytes_methods.h: it only contains private symbols (prefixed by
"_Py"), except of the PyDoc_STRVAR_shared() macro.
gcc -Wcast-qual turns up a number of instances of casting away constness of pointers. Some of these can be safely modified, by either:
Adding the const to the type cast, as in:
- return _PyUnicode_FromUCS1((unsigned char*)s, size);
+ return _PyUnicode_FromUCS1((const unsigned char*)s, size);
or, Removing the cast entirely, because it's not necessary (but probably was at one time), as in:
- PyDTrace_FUNCTION_ENTRY((char *)filename, (char *)funcname, lineno);
+ PyDTrace_FUNCTION_ENTRY(filename, funcname, lineno);
These changes will not change code, but they will make it much easier to check for errors in consts
Improve multi-threaded performance by dropping the GIL in the fast path
of bytes.join. To avoid increasing overhead for small joins, it is only
done if the output size exceeds a threshold.
The public API symbols being removed are:
_PyBytes_InsertThousandsGroupingLocale, _PyBytes_InsertThousandsGrouping, _Py_InitializeFromArgs, _Py_InitializeFromWideArgs, _PyFloat_Repr, _PyFloat_Digits,
_PyFloat_DigitsInit, PyFrame_ExtendStack, _PyAIterWrapper_Type, PyNullImporter_Type, PyCmpWrapper_Type, PySortWrapper_Type, PyNoArgsFunction.
* The UTF-8 incremental decoders fails now fast if encounter
a sequence that can't be handled by the error handler.
* The UTF-16 incremental decoders with the surrogatepass error
handler decodes now a lone low surrogate with final=False.
_PyCoreConfig: Change filesystem_encoding, filesystem_errors,
stdio_encoding and stdio_errors fields type from char* to wchar_t*.
Changes:
* PyInterpreterState: replace fscodec_initialized (int) with fs_codec
structure.
* Add get_error_handler_wide() and unicode_encode_utf8() helper
functions.
* Add error_handler parameter to unicode_encode_locale()
and unicode_decode_locale().
* Remove _PyCoreConfig_SetString().
* Rename _PyCoreConfig_SetWideString() to _PyCoreConfig_SetString().
* Rename _PyCoreConfig_SetWideStringFromString()
to _PyCoreConfig_DecodeLocale().
Fix invalid function cast warnings with gcc 8
for method conventions different from METH_NOARGS, METH_O and
METH_VARARGS in Argument Clinic generated code.
Fix str.format(), float.__format__() and complex.__format__() methods
for non-ASCII decimal point when using the "n" formatter.
Changes:
* Rewrite _PyUnicode_InsertThousandsGrouping(): it now requires
a _PyUnicodeWriter object for the buffer and a Python str object
for digits.
* Rename FILL() macro to unicode_fill(), convert it to static inline function,
add "assert(0 <= start);" and rework its code.
Add support for the "surrogatepass" error handler in
PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefault() and PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault()
for the UTF-8 encoding.
Changes:
* _Py_DecodeUTF8Ex() and _Py_EncodeUTF8Ex() now support the
surrogatepass error handler (_Py_ERROR_SURROGATEPASS).
* _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() and _Py_EncodeLocaleEx() now use
the _Py_error_handler enum instead of "int surrogateescape" to pass
the error handler. These functions now return -3 if the error
handler is unknown.
* Add unit tests on _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() and _Py_EncodeLocaleEx()
in test_codecs.
* Rename get_error_handler() to _Py_GetErrorHandler() and expose it
as a private function.
* _freeze_importlib doesn't need config.filesystem_errors="strict"
workaround anymore.
METH_NOARGS functions need only a single argument but they are cast
into a PyCFunction, which takes two arguments. This triggers an
invalid function cast warning in gcc8 due to the argument mismatch.
Fix this by adding a dummy unused argument.
* Add Py_UNREACHABLE() as an alias to abort().
* Use Py_UNREACHABLE() instead of assert(0)
* Convert more unreachable code to use Py_UNREACHABLE()
* Document Py_UNREACHABLE() and a few other macros.
string is pure ASCII: use _PyBytesWriter_WriteBytes(), don't check individual
character.
Cleanup unicode_encode_ucs1():
* Rename repunicode to rep
* Clear rep object on error
* Factorize code between bytes and unicode path
