While it was previously possible to toggle this by modifying the value of `subprocess._USE_POSIX_SPAWN`, this required either patching CPython or modifying it within the interpreter instance which is not always possible, such as when running applications or scripts not under a user's control. * fixup NEWS entry --------- (cherry picked from commit 4c5dcc6d8292d5142aff8401cb9b9d18b49c6c89) Signed-off-by: Vincent Fazio <vfazio@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Vincent Fazio <vfazio@gmail.com>

* gh-116167: Allow disabling the GIL with `PYTHON_GIL=0` or `-X gil=0` (#116338)Brett Simmers2024-03-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | In free-threaded builds, running with `PYTHON_GIL=0` will now disable the GIL. Follow-up issues track work to re-enable the GIL when loading an incompatible extension, and to disable the GIL by default. In order to support re-enabling the GIL at runtime, all GIL-related data structures are initialized as usual, and disabling the GIL simply sets a flag that causes `take_gil()` and `drop_gil()` to return early.

* gh-113117: Support posix_spawn in subprocess.Popen with close_fds=True (#113118)Jakub Kulík2023-12-171-3/+8
| | | | | | | | Add support for `os.POSIX_SPAWN_CLOSEFROM` and `posix_spawn_file_actions_addclosefrom_np` and have the `subprocess` module use them when available. This means `posix_spawn` can now be used in the default `close_fds=True` situation on many platforms. Co-authored-by: Gregory P. Smith [Google LLC] <greg@krypto.org>

* gh-91401: Add a failsafe way to disable vfork. (#91490)Gregory P. Smith2022-04-251-1/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Just in case there is ever an issue with _posixsubprocess's use of vfork() due to the complexity of using it properly and potential directions that Linux platforms where it defaults to on could take, this adds a failsafe so that users can disable its use entirely by setting a global flag. No known reason to disable it exists. But it'd be a shame to encounter one and not be able to use CPython without patching and rebuilding it. See the linked issue for some discussion on reasoning. Also documents the existing way to disable posix_spawn.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Removes the `list` call in the Popen `repr`. Current implementation: For cmd = `python --version`, with `shell=True`. ```bash <Popen: returncode: None args: ['p', 'y', 't', 'h', 'o', 'n', ' ', '-', '-',...> ``` For `shell=False` and args=`['python', '--version']`, the output is correct: ```bash <Popen: returncode: None args: ['python', '--version']> ``` With the new changes the `repr` yields: For cmd = `python --version`, with `shell=True`: ```bash <Popen: returncode: None args: 'python --version'> ``` For `shell=False` and args=`['python', '--version']`, the output: ```bash <Popen: returncode: None args: ['python', '--version']> ``` Automerge-Triggered-By: GH:gpshead

* bpo-42388: Fix subprocess.check_output input=None when text=True (GH-23467)Gregory P. Smith2020-12-251-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | When the modern text= spelling of the universal_newlines= parameter was added for Python 3.7, check_output's special case around input=None was overlooked. So it behaved differently with universal_newlines=True vs text=True. This reconciles the behavior to be consistent and adds a test to guarantee it. Also clarifies the existing check_output documentation. Co-authored-by: Alexey Izbyshev <izbyshev@ispras.ru>

* bpo-41586: Add pipesize parameter to subprocess & F_GETPIPE_SZ and ↵Ruben Vorderman2020-10-191-1/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | F_SETPIPE_SZ to fcntl. (GH-21921) * Add F_SETPIPE_SZ and F_GETPIPE_SZ to fcntl module * Add pipesize parameter for subprocess.Popen class This will allow the user to control the size of the pipes. On linux the default is 64K. When a pipe is full it blocks for writing. When a pipe is empty it blocks for reading. On processes that are very fast this can lead to a lot of wasted CPU cycles. On a typical Linux system the max pipe size is 1024K which is much better. For high performance-oriented libraries such as xopen it is nice to be able to set the pipe size. The workaround without this feature is to use my_popen_process.stdout.fileno() in conjuction with fcntl and 1031 (value of F_SETPIPE_SZ) to acquire this behavior.

* bpo-39481: Implementation for PEP 585 (#18239)Guido van Rossum2020-04-071-21/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | This implements things like `list[int]`, which returns an object of type `types.GenericAlias`. This object mostly acts as a proxy for `list`, but has attributes `__origin__` and `__args__` that allow recovering the parts (with values `list` and `(int,)`. There is also an approximate notion of type variables; e.g. `list[T]` has a `__parameters__` attribute equal to `(T,)`. Type variables are objects of type `typing.TypeVar`.
