-Buffer-related functions
-========================
+Buffer request types
+====================
 
+Buffers are usually obtained by sending a buffer request to an exporting
+object via :c:func:`PyObject_GetBuffer`. Since the complexity of the logical
+structure of the memory can vary drastically, the consumer uses the *flags*
+argument to specify the exact buffer type it can handle.
 
-.. c:function:: int PyObject_CheckBuffer(PyObject *obj)
+All :c:data:`Py_buffer` fields are unambiguously defined by the request
+type.
+
+request-independent fields
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+The following fields are not influenced by *flags* and must always be filled in
+with the correct values: :c:member:`~Py_buffer.obj`, :c:member:`~Py_buffer.buf`,
+:c:member:`~Py_buffer.len`, :c:member:`~Py_buffer.itemsize`, :c:member:`~Py_buffer.ndim`.
 
-   Return 1 if *obj* supports the buffer interface otherwise 0.  When 1 is
-   returned, it doesn't guarantee that :c:func:`PyObject_GetBuffer` will
-   succeed.
 
+readonly, format
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
-.. c:function:: int PyObject_GetBuffer(PyObject *obj, Py_buffer *view, int flags)
+   .. c:macro:: PyBUF_WRITABLE
 
-      Export a view over some internal data from the target object *obj*.
-      *obj* must not be NULL, and *view* must point to an existing
-      :c:type:`Py_buffer` structure allocated by the caller (most uses of
-      this function will simply declare a local variable of type
-      :c:type:`Py_buffer`).  The *flags* argument is a bit field indicating
-      what kind of buffer is requested.  The buffer interface allows
-      for complicated memory layout possibilities; however, some callers
-      won't want to handle all the complexity and instead request a simple
-      view of the target object (using :c:macro:`PyBUF_SIMPLE` for a read-only
-      view and :c:macro:`PyBUF_WRITABLE` for a read-write view).
+      Controls the :c:member:`~Py_buffer.readonly` field. If set, the exporter
+      MUST provide a writable buffer or else report failure. Otherwise, the
+      exporter MAY provide either a read-only or writable buffer, but the choice
+      MUST be consistent for all consumers.
 
-      Some exporters may not be able to share memory in every possible way and
-      may need to raise errors to signal to some consumers that something is
-      just not possible. These errors should be a :exc:`BufferError` unless
-      there is another error that is actually causing the problem. The
-      exporter can use flags information to simplify how much of the
-      :c:data:`Py_buffer` structure is filled in with non-default values and/or
-      raise an error if the object can't support a simpler view of its memory.
+   .. c:macro:: PyBUF_FORMAT
 
-      On success, 0 is returned and the *view* structure is filled with useful
-      values.  On error, -1 is returned and an exception is raised; the *view*
-      is left in an undefined state.

+Since :c:macro:`PyBUF_SIMPLE` is defined as 0, :c:macro:`PyBUF_WRITABLE`
+can be used as a stand-alone flag to request a simple writable buffer.
 
-         This is the default flag.  The returned buffer exposes a read-only
-         memory area.  The format of data is assumed to be raw unsigned bytes,
-         without any particular structure.  This is a "stand-alone" flag
-         constant.  It never needs to be '|'d to the others.  The exporter will
-         raise an error if it cannot provide such a contiguous buffer of bytes.
+:c:macro:`PyBUF_FORMAT` can be \|'d to any of the flags except :c:macro:`PyBUF_SIMPLE`.
+The latter already implies format ``B`` (unsigned bytes).
 
-      .. c:macro:: PyBUF_WRITABLE
 
-         Like :c:macro:`PyBUF_SIMPLE`, but the returned buffer is writable.  If

-      .. c:macro:: PyBUF_STRIDES
+The flags that control the logical structure of the memory are listed
+in decreasing order of complexity. Note that each flag contains all bits
+of the flags below it.
 
-         This implies :c:macro:`PyBUF_ND`.  The returned buffer must provide
-         strides information (i.e. the strides cannot be NULL).  This would be
-         used when the consumer can handle strided, discontiguous arrays.
-         Handling strides automatically assumes you can handle shape.  The
-         exporter can raise an error if a strided representation of the data is
-         not possible (i.e. without the suboffsets).

-         The returned buffer must have true format information if this flag is

-      .. c:macro:: PyBUF_RECORDS
 
-         This is equivalent to ``(PyBUF_STRIDES | PyBUF_FORMAT |

+Complex arrays
+==============
 
-      .. c:macro:: PyBUF_RECORDS_RO
+NumPy-style: shape and strides
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The logical structure of NumPy-style arrays is defined by :c:member:`~Py_buffer.itemsize`,
+:c:member:`~Py_buffer.ndim`, :c:member:`~Py_buffer.shape` and :c:member:`~Py_buffer.strides`.
+
+If ``ndim == 0``, the memory location pointed to by :c:member:`~Py_buffer.buf` is
+interpreted as a scalar of size :c:member:`~Py_buffer.itemsize`. In that case,
+both :c:member:`~Py_buffer.shape` and :c:member:`~Py_buffer.strides` are *NULL*.
+
+If :c:member:`~Py_buffer.strides` is *NULL*, the array is interpreted as
+a standard n-dimensional C-array. Otherwise, the consumer must access an
+n-dimensional array as follows:
+
+   ``ptr = (char *)buf + indices[0] * strides[0] + ... + indices[n-1] * strides[n-1]``
+   ``item = *((typeof(item) *)ptr);``
+
+
+As noted above, :c:member:`~Py_buffer.buf` can point to any location within
+the actual memory block. An exporter can check the validity of a buffer with
+this function:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+   def verify_structure(memlen, itemsize, ndim, shape, strides, offset):
+       """Verify that the parameters represent a valid array within
+          the bounds of the allocated memory:
+              char *mem: start of the physical memory block
+              memlen: length of the physical memory block
+              offset: (char *)buf - mem
+       """
+       if offset % itemsize:
+           return False
+       if offset < 0 or offset+itemsize > memlen:
+           return False
+       if any(v % itemsize for v in strides):
+           return False
+
+       if ndim <= 0:
+           return ndim == 0 and not shape and not strides
+       if 0 in shape:
+           return True
+
+       imin = sum(strides[j]*(shape[j]-1) for j in range(ndim)
+                  if strides[j] <= 0)
+       imax = sum(strides[j]*(shape[j]-1) for j in range(ndim)
+                  if strides[j] > 0)
+
+       return 0 <= offset+imin and offset+imax+itemsize <= memlen
+
+
+PIL-style: shape, strides and suboffsets
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+In addition to the regular items, PIL-style arrays can contain pointers
+that must be followed in order to get to the next element in a dimension.
+For example, the regular three-dimensional C-array ``char v[2][2][3]`` can
+also be viewed as an array of 2 pointers to 2 two-dimensional arrays:
+``char (*v[2])[2][3]``. In suboffsets representation, those two pointers
+can be embedded at the start of :c:member:`~Py_buffer.buf`, pointing
+to two ``char x[2][3]`` arrays that can be located anywhere in memory.
+
+
+Here is a function that returns a pointer to the element in an N-D array
+pointed to by an N-dimensional index when there are both non-NULL strides
+and suboffsets::
+
+   void *get_item_pointer(int ndim, void *buf, Py_ssize_t *strides,
+                          Py_ssize_t *suboffsets, Py_ssize_t *indices) {
+       char *pointer = (char*)buf;
+       int i;
+       for (i = 0; i < ndim; i++) {
+           pointer += strides[i] * indices[i];
+           if (suboffsets[i] >=0 ) {
+               pointer = *((char**)pointer) + suboffsets[i];
+           }
+       }
+       return (void*)pointer;
+   }

-      .. c:macro:: PyBUF_FULL
+Buffer-related functions
+========================
 
-         This is equivalent to ``(PyBUF_INDIRECT | PyBUF_FORMAT |
-         PyBUF_WRITABLE)``.
+.. c:function:: int PyObject_CheckBuffer(PyObject *obj)
 
-      .. c:macro:: PyBUF_FULL_RO
+   Return 1 if *obj* supports the buffer interface otherwise 0.  When 1 is
+   returned, it doesn't guarantee that :c:func:`PyObject_GetBuffer` will
+   succeed.
 
-         This is equivalent to ``(PyBUF_INDIRECT | PyBUF_FORMAT)``.
 
-      .. c:macro:: PyBUF_CONTIG
+.. c:function:: int PyObject_GetBuffer(PyObject *exporter, Py_buffer *view, int flags)
 
-         This is equivalent to ``(PyBUF_ND | PyBUF_WRITABLE)``.
+   Send a request to *exporter* to fill in *view* as specified by  *flags*.
+   If the exporter cannot provide a buffer of the exact type, it MUST raise
+   :c:data:`PyExc_BufferError`, set :c:member:`view->obj` to *NULL* and
+   return -1.
 
-      .. c:macro:: PyBUF_CONTIG_RO
+   On success, fill in *view*, set :c:member:`view->obj` to a new reference
+   to *exporter* and return 0. In the case of chained buffer providers
+   that redirect requests to a single object, :c:member:`view->obj` MAY
+   refer to this object instead of *exporter* (See :ref:`Buffer Object Structures <buffer-structs>`).
 
-         This is equivalent to ``(PyBUF_ND)``.
+   Successful calls to :c:func:`PyObject_GetBuffer` must be paired with calls
+   to :c:func:`PyBuffer_Release`, similar to :c:func:`malloc` and :c:func:`free`.
+   Thus, after the consumer is done with the buffer, :c:func:`PyBuffer_Release`
+   must be called exactly once.
 
 
 .. c:function:: void PyBuffer_Release(Py_buffer *view)
 
-   Release the buffer *view*.  This should be called when the buffer is no
-   longer being used as it may free memory from it.
+   Release the buffer *view* and decrement the reference count for

+

+   :c:func:`PyObject_GetBuffer`.

-.. c:function:: int PyBuffer_IsContiguous(Py_buffer *view, char fortran)

-   Return 1 if the memory defined by the *view* is C-style (*fortran* is

-   (*fortran* is ``'A'``).  Return 0 otherwise.

+.. c:function:: int PyBuffer_FillInfo(Py_buffer *view, PyObject *exporter, void *buf, Py_ssize_t len, int readonly, int flags)
+
+   Handle buffer requests for an exporter that wants to expose *buf* of size *len*
+   with writability set according to *readonly*. *buf* is interpreted as a sequence
+   of unsigned bytes.
+
+   The *flags* argument indicates the request type. This function always fills in
+   *view* as specified by flags, unless *buf* has been designated as read-only
+   and :c:macro:`PyBUF_WRITABLE` is set in *flags*.
+
+   On success, set :c:member:`view->obj` to a new reference to *exporter* and
+   return 0. Otherwise, raise :c:data:`PyExc_BufferError`, set
+   :c:member:`view->obj` to *NULL* and return -1;
+
+   If this function is used as part of a :ref:`getbufferproc <buffer-structs>`,
+   *exporter* MUST be set to the exporting object. Otherwise, *exporter* MUST
+   be NULL.
+
 
-   Fill in a buffer-info structure, *view*, correctly for an exporter that can
-   only share a contiguous chunk of memory of "unsigned bytes" of the given
-   length.  Return 0 on success and -1 (with raising an error) on error.

+**********************************
+Stable Appliction Binary Interface
+**********************************
+
+Traditionally, the C API of Python will change with every release.
+Most changes will be source-compatible, typically by only adding API,
+rather than changing existing API or removing API (although some
+interfaces do get removed after being deprecated first).
+
+Unfortunately, the API compatibility does not extend to binary
+compatibility (the ABI). The reason is primarily the evolution of
+struct definitions, where addition of a new field, or changing
+the type of a field, might not break the API, but can break the ABI.
+As a consequence, extension modules need to be recompiled for
+every Python release (although an exception is possible on Unix
+when none of the affected interfaces are used). In addition, on
+Windows, extension modules link with a specific pythonXY.dll and
+need to be recompiled to link with a newer one.
+
+Since Python 3.2, a subset of the API has been declared to guarantee
+a stable ABI. Extension modules wishing to use this API need to define
+Py_LIMITED_API. A number of interpreter details then become hidden
+from the extension module; in return, a module is built that works
+on any 3.x version (x>=2) without recompilation. In some cases, the
+stable ABI needs to be extended with new functions. Extensions modules
+wishing to use these new APIs need to set Py_LIMITED_API to the
+PY_VERSION_HEX value of the minimum Python version they want to
+support (e.g. 0x03030000 for Python 3.3). Such modules will work
+on all subsequent Python releases, but fail to load (because of
+missing symbols) on the older releases.
+
+As of Python 3.2, the set of functions available to the limited API
+is documented in PEP 384.

+       int (PyObject *exporter, Py_buffer *view, int flags);
+
+   Handle a request to *exporter* to fill in *view* as specified by *flags*.
+   Except for point (3), an implementation of this function MUST take these
+   steps:
+
+   (1) Check if the request can be met. If not, raise :c:data:`PyExc_BufferError`,
+       set :c:data:`view->obj` to *NULL* and return -1.
+
+   (2) Fill in the requested fields.
+
+   (3) Increment an internal counter for the number of exports.
+
+   (4) Set :c:data:`view->obj` to *exporter* and increment :c:data:`view->obj`.
+
+   (5) Return 0.
+
+   If *exporter* is part of a chain or tree of buffer providers, two main
+   schemes can be used:
+
+   * Re-export: Each member of the tree acts as the exporting object and
+     sets :c:data:`view->obj` to a new reference to itself.
+
+   * Redirect: The buffer request is redirected to the root object of the
+     tree. Here, :c:data:`view->obj` will be a new reference to the root
+     object.
+
+   The individual fields of *view* are described in section
+   :ref:`Buffer structure <buffer-structure>`, the rules how an exporter
+   must react to specific requests are in section
+   :ref:`Buffer request types <buffer-request-types>`.
+

-      This should fill a :c:type:`Py_buffer` with the necessary data for

-      (PyObject *obj, Py_buffer *view, int flags)``.  *obj* is the object to
-      export, *view* is the :c:type:`Py_buffer` struct to fill, and *flags* gives
-      the conditions the caller wants the memory under.  (See
-      :c:func:`PyObject_GetBuffer` for all flags.)  :c:member:`bf_getbuffer` is
-      responsible for filling *view* with the appropriate information.
-      (:c:func:`PyBuffer_FillView` can be used in simple cases.)  See
-      :c:type:`Py_buffer`\s docs for what needs to be filled in.
+   (2) If the counter is 0, free all memory associated with *view*.

 Unicode Objects
 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 
+Since the implementation of :pep:`393` in Python 3.3, Unicode objects internally
+use a variety of representations, in order to allow handling the complete range
+of Unicode characters while staying memory efficient.  There are special cases
+for strings where all code points are below 128, 256, or 65536; otherwise, code
+points must be below 1114112 (which is the full Unicode range).
+
+:c:type:`Py_UNICODE*` and UTF-8 representations are created on demand and cached
+in the Unicode object.  The :c:type:`Py_UNICODE*` representation is deprecated
+and inefficient; it should be avoided in performance- or memory-sensitive
+situations.
+
+Due to the transition between the old APIs and the new APIs, unicode objects
+can internally be in two states depending on how they were created:
+
+* "canonical" unicode objects are all objects created by a non-deprecated
+  unicode API.  They use the most efficient representation allowed by the
+  implementation.
+
+* "legacy" unicode objects have been created through one of the deprecated
+  APIs (typically :c:func:`PyUnicode_FromUnicode`) and only bear the
+  :c:type:`Py_UNICODE*` representation; you will have to call
+  :c:func:`PyUnicode_READY` on them before calling any other API.
+

 Unicode Type
 """"""""""""
 
 These are the basic Unicode object types used for the Unicode implementation in
 Python:
 
+.. c:type:: Py_UCS4
+            Py_UCS2
+            Py_UCS1
+
+   These types are typedefs for unsigned integer types wide enough to contain
+   characters of 32 bits, 16 bits and 8 bits, respectively.  When dealing with
+   single Unicode characters, use :c:type:`Py_UCS4`.
+
+   .. versionadded:: 3.3
+
 
 .. c:type:: Py_UNICODE
 
-   This type represents the storage type which is used by Python internally as
-   basis for holding Unicode ordinals.  Python's default builds use a 16-bit type
-   for :c:type:`Py_UNICODE` and store Unicode values internally as UCS2. It is also
-   possible to build a UCS4 version of Python (most recent Linux distributions come
-   with UCS4 builds of Python). These builds then use a 32-bit type for
-   :c:type:`Py_UNICODE` and store Unicode data internally as UCS4. On platforms
-   where :c:type:`wchar_t` is available and compatible with the chosen Python
-   Unicode build variant, :c:type:`Py_UNICODE` is a typedef alias for
-   :c:type:`wchar_t` to enhance native platform compatibility. On all other
-   platforms, :c:type:`Py_UNICODE` is a typedef alias for either :c:type:`unsigned
-   short` (UCS2) or :c:type:`unsigned long` (UCS4).
+   This is a typedef of :c:type:`wchar_t`, which is a 16-bit type or 32-bit type
+   depending on the platform.
 
-Note that UCS2 and UCS4 Python builds are not binary compatible. Please keep
-this in mind when writing extensions or interfaces.
+   .. versionchanged:: 3.3
+      In previous versions, this was a 16-bit type or a 32-bit type depending on
+      whether you selected a "narrow" or "wide" Unicode version of Python at
+      build time.
