| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ``functools.reduce`` is called with `function` or `sequence` as a keyword args (#121677) Python implementation of `functools` allows calling `reduce` with `function` or `sequence` as keyword args. This doesn't match behavior of our C accelerator and our documentation for `functools.reduce` states that `function`and `sequence` are positional-only arguments. Now calling a Python implementation of `functools.reduce` with `function` or `sequence` as keyword args would raise a `DeprecationWarning` and is planned to be prohibited in Python 3.16.

* gh-126925: Modify how iOS test results are gathered (#127592)Russell Keith-Magee2024-12-091-0/+7
| | | | | | | Adds a `use_system_log` config item to enable stdout/stderr redirection for Apple platforms. This log streaming is then used by a new iOS test runner script, allowing the display of test suite output at runtime. The iOS test runner script can be used by any Python project, not just the CPython test suite.
* GH-125413: Revert addition of `pathlib.Path.scandir()` method (#127377)Barney Gale2024-12-051-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | | Remove documentation for `pathlib.Path.scandir()`, and rename the method to `_scandir()`. In the private pathlib ABCs, make `iterdir()` abstract and call it from `_scandir()`. It's not worthwhile to add this method at the moment - see discussion: https://discuss.python.org/t/ergonomics-of-new-pathlib-path-scandir/71721 Co-authored-by: Steve Dower <steve.dower@microsoft.com>

* gh-69639: Add mixed-mode rules for complex arithmetic (C-like) (GH-124829)Sergey B Kirpichev2024-11-261-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "Generally, mixed-mode arithmetic combining real and complex variables should be performed directly, not by first coercing the real to complex, lest the sign of zero be rendered uninformative; the same goes for combinations of pure imaginary quantities with complex variables." (c) Kahan, W: Branch cuts for complex elementary functions. This patch implements mixed-mode arithmetic rules, combining real and complex variables as specified by C standards since C99 (in particular, there is no special version for the true division with real lhs operand). Most C compilers implementing C99+ Annex G have only these special rules (without support for imaginary type, which is going to be deprecated in C2y).

* gh-97514: Authenticate the forkserver control socket. (GH-99309)Gregory P. Smith2024-11-201-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This adds authentication to the forkserver control socket. In the past only filesystem permissions protected this socket from code injection into the forkserver process by limiting access to the same UID, which didn't exist when Linux abstract namespace sockets were used (see issue) meaning that any process in the same system network namespace could inject code. We've since stopped using abstract namespace sockets by default, but protecting our control sockets regardless of type is a good idea. This reuses the HMAC based shared key auth already used by `multiprocessing.connection` sockets for other purposes. Doing this is useful so that filesystem permissions are not relied upon and trust isn't implied by default between all processes running as the same UID with access to the unix socket. ### pyperformance benchmarks No significant changes. Including `concurrent_imap` which exercises `multiprocessing.Pool.imap` in that suite. ### Microbenchmarks This does _slightly_ slow down forkserver use. How much so appears to depend on the platform. Modern platforms and simple platforms are less impacted. This PR adds additional IPC round trips to the control socket to tell forkserver to spawn a new process. Systems with potentially high latency IPC are naturally impacted more. Typically a 1-4% slowdown on a very targeted process creation microbenchmark, with a worst case overloaded system slowdown of 20%. No evidence that these slowdowns appear in practical sense. See the PR for details.

* Doc: Recommend shlex.quote alongside pipes removal (#126570)Colin Watson2024-11-141-0/+2
| | | | | | | One of the most common reasons I see the old `pipes` module still in use when porting to Python 3.13 is for the undocumented `pipes.quote` function, which can easily be replaced with `shlex.quote`. I think it's worth specifically calling this out, since being directed to the `subprocess` module would be confusing in this case.
