Remove support for supplying additional positional arguments to
`PurePath.relative_to()` and `is_relative_to()`. This has been deprecated
since Python 3.12.
`_Py_qsbr_unregister` is called when the PyThreadState is already
detached, so the access to `tstate->qsbr` isn't safe without locking the
shared mutex. Grab the `struct _qsbr_shared` from the interpreter
instead.
_PyWeakref_ClearRef was previously exposed in the public C-API, although
it begins with an underscore and is not documented. It's used by a few
C-API extensions. There is currently no alternative public API that can
replace its use.
_PyWeakref_ClearWeakRefsExceptCallbacks is the only thread-safe way to
use _PyWeakref_ClearRef in the free-threaded build. This exposes the C
symbol, but does not make the API public.
* shm_unlink() parameter becomes positional-only.
* shm_open() first parameter (path) becomes positional-only,
the two following parameters remain positional-or-keyword.
Using `race:` filters out warnings if the function appears anywhere in
the stack trace. This can hide a lot of unrelated warnings, especially
for a function like `_PyEval_EvalFrameDefault`, which is somewhere on
the stack more often than not.
Change all free-threaded suppressions to `race_top:`, which only matches
the top frame, and add any new suppressions this exposes.
Some embedders and extensions include parts of the internal API. The
pycore_mimalloc.h file is transitively include by a number of other
internal headers. This avoids include errors for code that was
already including those headers.
The `list_preallocate_exact` function did not zero initialize array
contents. In the free-threaded build, this could expose uninitialized
memory to concurrent readers between the call to
`list_preallocate_exact` and the filling of the array contents with
items.
Use relaxed atomics when reading / writing to the field. There are still a
few places in the GC where we do not use atomics. Those should be safe as
the world is stopped.
A new `compute_powers()` function computes all and only the powers of the base the various base-conversion functions need, as efficiently as reasonably possible (turns out that invoking `**`is needed at most once). This typically gives a few % speedup, but the primary point is to simplify the base-conversion functions, which no longer need their own, ad hoc, and less efficient power-caching schemes.
