time.clock() and time.perf_counter() now use again C double
internally.
Remove also _PyTime_GetWinPerfCounterWithInfo(): use
_PyTime_GetPerfCounterDoubleWithInfo() instead on Windows.
* Separated functions and constants descriptions in sections.
* Added a note about the limitations of timezone constants.
* Removed redundant lists from the module docstring.
See PEP 539 for details.
Highlights of changes:
- Add Thread Specific Storage (TSS) API
- Document the Thread Local Storage (TLS) API as deprecated
- Update code that used TLS API to use TSS API
While a rare potential failure (it requires swapping out zlib.decompress() itself and forcing it to return a non-bytes object), this change prevents a potential C-level assertion failure and instead substitutes it with an exception.
Thanks to Oren Milman for the patch.
Python requires C implementations provide memmove, so we shouldn't need to check for it. The only place using this configure check was expat, where we can simply always define HAVE_MEMMOVE.
* Maintain a list of BufferedWriter objects. Flush them on exit.
In Python 3, the buffer and the underlying file object are separate
and so the order in which objects are finalized matters. This is
unlike Python 2 where the file and buffer were a single object and
finalization was done for both at the same time. In Python 3, if
the file is finalized and closed before the buffer then the data in
the buffer is lost.
This change adds a doubly linked list of open file buffers. An atexit
hook ensures they are flushed before proceeding with interpreter
shutdown. This is addition does not remove the need to properly close
files as there are other reasons why buffered data could get lost during
finalization.
Initial patch by Armin Rigo.
* Use weakref.WeakSet instead of WeakKeyDictionary.
* Simplify buffered double-linked list types.
* In _flush_all_writers(), suppress errors from flush().
* Remove NEWS entry, use blurb.
* Take more care when flushing file buffers from atexit.
The previous implementation was not careful enough to avoid
causing issues in multi-threaded cases. Check for buf->ok
and buf->finalizing before actually doing the flush. Also,
increase the refcnt to ensure the object does not disappear.
Fix a memory corruption in getpath.c due to mixed memory allocators
between Py_GetPath() and Py_SetPath().
The fix use the Raw allocator to mimic the windows version.
This patch should be used from python3.6 to the current version
for more details, see the bug report and

* bpo-31499, xml.etree: Fix xmlparser_gc_clear() crash
xml.etree: xmlparser_gc_clear() now sets self.parser to NULL to prevent a
crash in xmlparser_dealloc() if xmlparser_gc_clear() was called previously
by the garbage collector, because the parser was part of a reference cycle.

The concrete PyDict_* API is used to interact with PyInterpreterState.modules in a number of places. This isn't compatible with all dict subclasses, nor with other Mapping implementations. This patch switches the concrete API usage to the corresponding abstract API calls.
We also add a PyImport_GetModule() function (and some other helpers) to reduce a bunch of code duplication.
* Add Py_UNREACHABLE() as an alias to abort().
* Use Py_UNREACHABLE() instead of assert(0)
* Convert more unreachable code to use Py_UNREACHABLE()
* Document Py_UNREACHABLE() and a few other macros.
* Avoid calling "PyObject_GetAttrString()" (and potentially executing user code) with a live exception set.
* Ignore only AttributeError on attribute lookups in ElementTree.XMLParser() and propagate all other exceptions.
Cast Py_buffer.len (Py_ssize_t, signed) to size_t (unsigned) to
prevent the following warning:
Modules/_ssl.c:3089:21: warning: comparison between signed and
unsigned integer expressions [-Wsign-compare]
PR #1638, for bpo-28411, causes problems in some (very) edge cases. Until that gets sorted out, we're reverting the merge. PR #3506, a fix on top of #1638, is also getting reverted.
