* bpo-26762: Avoid daemon process in _test_multiprocessing (#2842)
test_level() of _test_multiprocessing._TestLogging now uses regular
processes rather than daemon processes to prevent zombi processes
(to not "leak" processes).
(cherry picked from commit 06634950c5)
* test_multiprocessing: Fix dangling process/thread (#2850)
bpo-26762: Fix more dangling processes and threads in
test_multiprocessing:
* Queue: call close() followed by join_thread()
* Process: call join() or self.addCleanup(p.join)
(cherry picked from commit d7e64d9934)
* test_multiprocessing detects dangling per test case (#2841)
bpo-26762: test_multiprocessing now detects dangling processes and
threads per test case classes:
* setUpClass()/tearDownClass() of mixin classes now check if
multiprocessing.process._dangling or threading._dangling was
modified to detect "dangling" processses and threads.
* ManagerMixin.tearDownClass() now also emits a warning if it still
has more than one active child process after 5 seconds.
* tearDownModule() now checks for dangling processes and threads
before sleep 500 ms. And it now only sleeps if there is a least one
dangling process or thread.
(cherry picked from commit ffb49408f0)
* bpo-26762: test_multiprocessing close more queues (#2855)
* Close explicitly queues to make sure that we don't leave dangling
threads
* test_queue_in_process(): remove unused queue
* test_access() joins also the process to fix a random warning
(cherry picked from commit b4c52966c8)
* bpo-31019: Fix multiprocessing.Process.is_alive() (#2875)
multiprocessing.Process.is_alive() now removes the process from the
_children set if the process completed.
The change prevents leaking "dangling" processes.
(cherry picked from commit 2db64823c2)
* Clear potential ref cycle between Process and Process target
Besides Process.join() not being called, this was an indirect cause of bpo-30775.
The threading module already does this.
* Add issue reference.
(cherry picked from commit 79d37ae979)
* bpo-24484: Avoid race condition in multiprocessing cleanup
The finalizer registry can be mutated while inspected by multiprocessing
at process exit.
* Use test.support.start_threads()
* Add Misc/NEWS.
(cherry picked from commit 1eb6c0074d)
* bpo-30414: multiprocesing.Queue._feed do not break from main loop on exc
Queue background running thread was not handling exceptions correctly.
Any exception occurred inside thread (putting unpickable object) cause
feeder to finish running. After that every message put into queue is
silently ignored.

* bpo-29861: release references to multiprocessing Pool tasks (#743)
* bpo-29861: release references to multiprocessing Pool tasks
Release references to tasks, their arguments and their results as soon
as they are finished, instead of keeping them alive until another task
arrives.
* Comments in test
(cherry picked from commit 8988945cdc)
* Fix Misc/NEWS (hopefully)
* multiprocessing: open file with closefd=False to avoid ResourceWarning
* _test_multiprocessing: open file with O_EXCL to detect bugs in tests (if a
previous test forgot to remove TESTFN)
* test_sys_exit(): remove TESTFN after each loop iteration
Initial patch written by Serhiy Storchaka.
requires them. Disable executable bits and shebang lines in test and
benchmark files in order to prevent using a random system python, and in
source files of modules which don't provide command line interface. Fixed
shebang lines in the unittestgui and checkpip scripts.
