Issue #27809: PyEval_CallObjectWithKeywords() doesn't increment temporary the
reference counter of the args tuple (positional arguments). The caller already
holds a strong reference to it.
This was found by PVS-Studio:
V595 The 'def' pointer was utilized before it was verified
against nullptr. Check lines: 286, 292. pystate.c 286
Initial patch by Christian Heimes.
Issue #27128. When a Python function is called with no arguments, but all
parameters have a default value: use default values as arguments for the fast
path.
Issue #27128: Modify PyEval_CallObjectWithKeywords() to use
_PyObject_FastCall() when args==NULL and kw==NULL. It avoids the creation of a
temporary empty tuple for positional arguments.
Issue #27128: Add _PyObject_FastCall(), a new calling convention avoiding a
temporary tuple to pass positional parameters in most cases, but create a
temporary tuple if needed (ex: for the tp_call slot).
The API is prepared to support keyword parameters, but the full implementation
will come later (_PyFunction_FastCall() doesn't support keyword parameters
yet).
Add also:
* _PyStack_AsTuple() helper function: convert a "stack" of parameters to
a tuple.
* _PyCFunction_FastCall(): fast call implementation for C functions
* _PyFunction_FastCall(): fast call implementation for Python functions
Issue #27558: Fix a SystemError in the implementation of "raise" statement.
In a brand new thread, raise a RuntimeError since there is no active
exception to reraise.
Patch written by Xiang Zhang.
Issue #27128, #18295: replace int type with Py_ssize_t for index variables used
for positional arguments. It should help to avoid integer overflow and help to
emit better machine code for "i++" (no trap needed for overflow).
Make also the total_args variable constant.
* Add comments
* Add empty lines for readability
* PEP 7 style for if block
* Remove useless assert(globals != NULL); (globals is tested a few lines
before)
Modify py_getrandom() to not call PyErr_CheckSignals() if raise is zero.
_PyRandom_Init() is called very early in the Python initialization, so it's
safer to not call PyErr_CheckSignals().
* Add pyurandom() helper function to factorize the code
* don't call Py_FatalError() in helper functions, but only in _PyRandom_Init()
if pyurandom() failed, to uniformize the code

"[Previous line repeated {count} more times]" by both the traceback
module and the builtin traceback rendering.
