Issue #26563:
* Add _PyGILState_GetInterpreterStateUnsafe() function: the single
PyInterpreterState used by this process' GILState implementation.
* Enhance _Py_DumpTracebackThreads() to retrieve the interpreter state from
autoInterpreterState in last resort. The function now accepts NULL for interp
and current_tstate parameters.
* test_faulthandler: fix a ResourceWarning when test is interrupted by CTRL+c
Issue #26154: Add a new private _PyThreadState_UncheckedGet() function which
gets the current thread state, but don't call Py_FatalError() if it is NULL.
Python 3.5.1 removed the _PyThreadState_Current symbol from the Python C API to
no more expose complex and private atomic types. Atomic types depends on the
compiler or can even depend on compiler options. The new function
_PyThreadState_UncheckedGet() allows to get the variable value without having
to care of the exact implementation of atomic types.
Changes:
* Replace direct usage of the _PyThreadState_Current variable with a call to
_PyThreadState_UncheckedGet().
* In pystate.c, replace direct usage of the _PyThreadState_Current variable
with the PyThreadState_GET() macro for readability.
* Document also PyThreadState_Get() in pystate.h
to its signal handlers.
Use also _Py_write_noraise() instead of write() to retry write() if it is
interrupted by a signal (fail with EINTR).
faulthandler.dump_traceback() also calls PyErr_CheckSignals() to call the
Python signal handler if a signal was received.
Issue #23654: Turn off ICC's tail call optimization for the stack_overflow
generator. ICC turns the recursive tail call into a loop.
Patch written by Matt Frank.
_read_null(), because _read_null() cannot be used on AIX. On AIX, reading from
NULL is allowed: the first page of memory is a mapped read-only on AIX.
_read_null() and _sigabrt() don't accept parameters.
- Use _testcapi.raise_signal() in test_signal
- close also os.pipe() file descriptors in some test_signal tests where they
were not closed properly
- Remove faulthandler._sigill() and faulthandler._sigbus(): reuse
_testcapi.raise_signal() in test_faulthandler
instead of creating temporary Unicode string objects
Add also more identifiers in pythonrun.c to avoid temporary Unicode string
objets for the interactive interpreter.
* Set the default value of all_threads arguments to True
* Py_FatalError() dumps all threads, instead of only the current thread
Dump only the current thread is not reliable. In some cases, Python is unable
to retrieve the state of the current thread and so is unable to dump the
traceback. faulthandler keeps a reference to the interpreter and so is always
able to dump the traceback of all threads.
