* [3.11] gh-98154: Clarify Usage of "Reference Count" In the Docs (gh-107753)Eric Snow2023-08-071-0/+3
| | | | | PEP 683 (immortal objects) revealed some ways in which the Python documentation has been unnecessarily coupled to the implementation details of reference counts. In the end users should focus on reference ownership, including taking references and releasing them, rather than on how many reference counts an object has. This change updates the documentation to reflect that perspective.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Integer to and from text conversions via CPython's bignum `int` type is not safe against denial of service attacks due to malicious input.

* gh-91181: drop support for bytes on sys.path (GH-31934)Miss Islington (bot)2022-07-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | Support for bytes broke sometime between Python 3.2 and 3.6 and has been broken ever since. Trying to bring back supports is surprisingly difficult in the face of -b and checking for keys in sys.path_importer_cache. Since the support was broken for so long, trying to overcome the difficulty of bringing back the support has been deemed not worth it.

| | | | | | | | This is true of all dictionaries in Python, but this one tends to catch people off guard as they don't realize when sys.modules might change out from underneath them as a hidden side effect of their code. Copying it first avoids the RuntimeError. An example when this happens in single threaded code are codecs being loaded which are an implicit time of use import that most need not think about.
