* bpo-35537: subprocess can use posix_spawn with pipes (GH-11575)Victor Stinner2019-01-231-2/+2
| | | | | | * subprocess.Popen can now also use os.posix_spawn() with pipes, but only if pipe file descriptors are greater than 2. * Fix Popen._posix_spawn(): set '_child_created' attribute to True. * Add Popen._close_pipe_fds() helper function to factorize the code.
* bpo-35713: Rework Python initialization (GH-11647)Victor Stinner2019-01-221-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * The PyByteArray_Init() and PyByteArray_Fini() functions have been removed. They did nothing since Python 2.7.4 and Python 3.2.0, were excluded from the limited API (stable ABI), and were not documented. * Move "_PyXXX_Init()" and "_PyXXX_Fini()" declarations from Include/cpython/pylifecycle.h to Include/internal/pycore_pylifecycle.h. Replace "PyAPI_FUNC(TYPE)" with "extern TYPE". * _PyExc_Init() now returns an error on failure rather than calling Py_FatalError(). Move macros inside _PyExc_Init() and undefine them when done. Rewrite macros to make them look more like statement: add ";" when using them, add "do { ... } while (0)". * _PyUnicode_Init() now returns a _PyInitError error rather than call Py_FatalError(). * Move stdin check from _PySys_BeginInit() to init_sys_streams(). * _Py_ReadyTypes() now returns a _PyInitError error rather than calling Py_FatalError().

| | | | | | | | | | While the introduction of ModuleNotFoundError was fully backwards compatible on the import API consumer side, folks providing alternative implementations of `__import__` need to make an update to be forward compatible with clients that start relying on the new subclass. https://bugs.python.org/issue35486
