* bpo-33042: Fix pre-initialization sys module configuration (GH-6157)Nick Coghlan2018-03-252-3/+15
| | | | | | | | | - new test case for pre-initialization of sys.warnoptions and sys._xoptions - restored ability to call these APIs prior to Py_Initialize - updated the docs for the affected APIs to make it clear they can be called before Py_Initialize - also enhanced the existing embedding test cases to check for expected settings in the sys module
* bpo-32374: m_traverse may be called with m_state=NULL (GH-5140)Marcel Plch2018-03-171-3/+9
| | | | | Multi-phase initialized modules allow m_traverse to be called while the module is still being initialized, so module authors may need to account for that.
* bpo-32500: Correct the documentation for PySequence_Size() and ↵Zackery Spytz2018-02-201-3/+2
| | | | | PySequence_Length() (GH-5767) Dropped the part that says: "For objects that do not provide sequence protocol".
* Make formatting of some return codes conforming to the general style. (#5587)Serhiy Storchaka2018-02-093-13/+13

* bpo-20891: Py_Initialize() now creates the GIL (#4700)Victor Stinner2018-01-291-40/+23
| | | | The GIL is no longer created "on demand" to fix a race condition when PyGILState_Ensure() is called in a non-Python thread.
* Document the error return of PyLong_As* APIs. (#5396)Gregory P. Smith2018-01-291-0/+34
| | | | | | Document the error return of PyLong_As* APIs. A frequent Python C API usage error is neglecting to check the return value and/or PyErr_Occurred().
* Fix PyTrace_RETURN documentation (GH-5384)Xiang Zhang2018-01-281-1/+1
| | | It will be triggered when propagating an exception.
* bpo-32649: Add C API docs for per-opcode tracing & profiling (GH-5360)Xiang Zhang2018-01-281-9/+20
| | | | Updating the C API docs was missed when the per-opcode tracing & profiling support was initially added.
* bpo-32687: Fix wrong meaning of args for PyTrace_LINE/CALL in documentation ↵Xiang Zhang2018-01-281-2/+2
| | | | | | (#5361)

* bpo-29240: PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() uses UTF-8 on Android (#5272)Victor Stinner2018-01-221-4/+7
| | | | | | | | PyUnicode_DecodeLocaleAndSize(), PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() and PyUnicode_EncodeLocale() now use always use the UTF-8 encoding on Android, instead of the current locale encoding. On Android API 19, mbstowcs() and wcstombs() are broken and cannot be used.
* bpo-29240: Fix locale encodings in UTF-8 Mode (#5170)Victor Stinner2018-01-152-0/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Modify locale.localeconv(), time.tzname, os.strerror() and other functions to ignore the UTF-8 Mode: always use the current locale encoding. Changes: * Add _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() and _Py_EncodeLocaleEx(). On decoding or encoding error, they return the position of the error and an error message which are used to raise Unicode errors in PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() and PyUnicode_EncodeLocale(). * Replace _Py_DecodeCurrentLocale() with _Py_DecodeLocaleEx(). * PyUnicode_DecodeLocale() now uses _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() for all cases, especially for the strict error handler. * Add _Py_DecodeUTF8Ex(): return more information on decoding error and supports the strict error handler. * Rename _Py_EncodeUTF8_surrogateescape() to _Py_EncodeUTF8Ex(). * Replace _Py_EncodeCurrentLocale() with _Py_EncodeLocaleEx(). * Ignore the UTF-8 mode to encode/decode localeconv(), strerror() and time zone name. * Remove PyUnicode_DecodeLocale(), PyUnicode_DecodeLocaleAndSize() and PyUnicode_EncodeLocale() now ignore the UTF-8 mode: always use the "current" locale. * Remove _PyUnicode_DecodeCurrentLocale(), _PyUnicode_DecodeCurrentLocaleAndSize() and _PyUnicode_EncodeCurrentLocale().

* bpo-29240: PEP 540: Add a new UTF-8 Mode (#855)Victor Stinner2017-12-131-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Add -X utf8 command line option, PYTHONUTF8 environment variable and a new sys.flags.utf8_mode flag. * If the LC_CTYPE locale is "C" at startup: enable automatically the UTF-8 mode. * Add _winapi.GetACP(). encodings._alias_mbcs() now calls _winapi.GetACP() to get the ANSI code page * locale.getpreferredencoding() now returns 'UTF-8' in the UTF-8 mode. As a side effect, open() now uses the UTF-8 encoding by default in this mode. * Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now use the UTF-8 encoding in the UTF-8 Mode. * Update subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle -X utf8 * Skip some tests relying on the current locale if the UTF-8 mode is enabled. * Add test_utf8mode.py. * _Py_DecodeUTF8_surrogateescape() gets a new optional parameter to return also the length (number of wide characters). * pymain_get_global_config() and pymain_set_global_config() now always copy flag values, rather than only copying if the new value is greater than the old value.

* bpo-32030: _PyPathConfig_Init() sets home and program_name (#4673)Victor Stinner2017-12-021-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | _PyPathConfig_Init() now also initialize home and program_name: * Rename existing _PyPathConfig_Init() to _PyPathConfig_Calculate(). Add a new _PyPathConfig_Init() function in pathconfig.c which handles the _Py_path_config variable and call _PyPathConfig_Calculate(). * Add home and program_name fields to _PyPathConfig.home * _PyPathConfig_Init() now initialize home and program_name from main_config * Py_SetProgramName(), Py_SetPythonHome() and Py_GetPythonHome() now calls Py_FatalError() on failure, instead of silently ignoring failures. * config_init_home() now gets directly _Py_path_config.home to only get the value set by Py_SetPythonHome(), or NULL if Py_SetPythonHome() was not called. * config_get_program_name() now gets directly _Py_path_config.program_name to only get the value set by Py_SetProgramName(), or NULL if Py_SetProgramName() was not called. * pymain_init_python() doesn't call Py_SetProgramName() anymore, _PyPathConfig_Init() now always sets the program name * Call _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Read() in pymain_parse_cmdline_envvars_impl() to control the memory allocator * C API documentation: it's no more safe to call Py_GetProgramName() before Py_Initialize().
* bpo-20891: Fix PyGILState_Ensure() (#4650)Victor Stinner2017-11-301-2/+3
| | | | | | | When PyGILState_Ensure() is called in a non-Python thread before PyEval_InitThreads(), only call PyEval_InitThreads() after calling PyThreadState_New() to fix a crash. Add an unit test in test_embed.
* bpo-32030: Rework memory allocators (#4625)Victor Stinner2017-11-291-9/+38
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Fix _PyMem_SetupAllocators("debug"): always restore allocators to the defaults, rather than only caling _PyMem_SetupDebugHooks(). * Add _PyMem_SetDefaultAllocator() helper to set the "default" allocator. * Add _PyMem_GetAllocatorsName(): get the name of the allocators * main() now uses debug hooks on memory allocators if Py_DEBUG is defined, rather than calling directly malloc() * Document default memory allocators in C API documentation * _Py_InitializeCore() now fails with a fatal user error if PYTHONMALLOC value is an unknown memory allocator, instead of failing with a fatal internal error. * Add new tests on the PYTHONMALLOC environment variable * Add support.with_pymalloc() * Add the _testcapi.WITH_PYMALLOC constant and expose it as support.with_pymalloc(). * sysconfig.get_config_var('WITH_PYMALLOC') doesn't work on Windows, so replace it with support.with_pymalloc(). * pythoninfo: add _testcapi collector for pymem

* Replace KB unit with KiB (#4293)Victor Stinner2017-11-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | kB (*kilo* byte) unit means 1000 bytes, whereas KiB ("kibibyte") means 1024 bytes. KB was misused: replace kB or KB with KiB when appropriate. Same change for MB and GB which become MiB and GiB. Change the output of Tools/iobench/iobench.py. Round also the size of the documentation from 5.5 MB to 5 MiB.

* bpo-28411: Support other mappings in PyInterpreterState.modules. (#3593)Eric Snow2017-09-151-0/+7
| | | | | The concrete PyDict_* API is used to interact with PyInterpreterState.modules in a number of places. This isn't compatible with all dict subclasses, nor with other Mapping implementations. This patch switches the concrete API usage to the corresponding abstract API calls. We also add a PyImport_GetModule() function (and some other helpers) to reduce a bunch of code duplication.
