mock
----
:mod:`~unittest.mock` objects now inspect their specification signatures when
matching calls, which means an argument can now be matched by either position
or name, instead of only by position. (Contributed by Antoine Pitrou in
:issue:`17015`.)

socket
------
The socket module now supports the :data:`~socket.CAN_BCM` protocol on
platforms that support it. (Contributed by Brian Thorne in :issue:`15359`.)
Socket objects have new methods to get or set their :ref:`inheritable flag
<fd_inheritance>`:
<fd_inheritance>`, :meth:`~socket.socket.get_inheritable` and
:meth:`~socket.socket.set_inheritable`.
* :meth:`socket.socket.get_inheritable`, :meth:`socket.socket.set_inheritable`
The ``socket.AF_*`` and ``socket.SOCK_*`` constants are enumeration values,
using the new :mod:`enum` module. This allows descriptive reporting during
debugging, instead of seeing integer "magic numbers".
The ``socket.AF_*`` and ``socket.SOCK_*`` constants are now enumeration values
