The openfp functions of aifp, sunau, and wave had pointed to the open
function of each module since 1993 as a matter of backwards
compatibility. In the case of aifc.openfp, it was both undocumented
and untested. This change begins the formal deprecation of those
openfp functions, with their removal coming in 3.9.
This additionally adds a TODO in test_pyclbr around using aifc.openfp,
though it shouldn't be changed until removal in 3.9.
kB (*kilo* byte) unit means 1000 bytes, whereas KiB ("kibibyte")
means 1024 bytes. KB was misused: replace kB or KB with KiB when
appropriate.
Same change for MB and GB which become MiB and GiB.
Change the output of Tools/iobench/iobench.py.
Round also the size of the documentation from 5.5 MB to 5 MiB.
blocksize was hardcoded to 8192, preventing efficient upload when using
file-like body. Add blocksize argument to __init__, so users can
configure the blocksize to fit their needs.
I tested this uploading data from /dev/zero to a web server dropping the
received data, to test the overhead of the HTTPConnection.send() with a
file-like object.
Here is an example 10g upload with the default buffer size (8192):
$ time ~/src/cpython/release/python upload-httplib.py 10 https://localhost:8000/
Uploaded 10.00g in 17.53 seconds (584.00m/s)
real 0m17.574s
user 0m8.887s
sys 0m5.971s
Same with 512k blocksize:
$ time ~/src/cpython/release/python upload-httplib.py 10 https://localhost:8000/
Uploaded 10.00g in 6.60 seconds (1551.15m/s)
real 0m6.641s
user 0m3.426s
sys 0m2.162s
In real world usage the difference will be smaller, depending on the
local and remote storage and the network.

All Blake2 params have to be encoded in little-endian byte order. For
the two multi-byte integer params, leaf_length and node_offset, that
means that assigning a native-endian integer to them appears to work on
little-endian platforms, but gives the wrong result on big-endian. The
current libb2 API doesn't make that very clear, and @sneves is working
on new API functions in the GH issue above. In the meantime, we can work
around the problem by explicitly assigning little-endian values to the
parameter block.

* bpo-31310: multiprocessing's semaphore tracker should be launched again if crashed
* Avoid mucking with process state in test.
Add a warning if the semaphore process died, as semaphores may then be leaked.
* Add NEWS entry
* bpo-31308: If multiprocessing's forkserver dies, launch it again when necessary.
* Fix test on Windows
* Add NEWS entry
* Adopt a different approach: ignore SIGINT and SIGTERM, as in semaphore tracker.
* Fix comment
* Make sure the test doesn't muck with process state
* Also test previously-started processes
* Update 2017-08-30-17-59-36.bpo-31308.KbexyC.rst
* Avoid masking SIGTERM in forkserver. It's not necessary and causes a race condition in test_many_processes.
Add new time functions:
* time.clock_gettime_ns()
* time.clock_settime_ns()
* time.monotonic_ns()
* time.perf_counter_ns()
* time.process_time_ns()
* time.time_ns()
Add new _PyTime functions:
* _PyTime_FromTimespec()
* _PyTime_FromNanosecondsObject()
* _PyTime_FromTimeval()
Other changes:
* Add also os.times() tests to test_os.
* pytime_fromtimeval() and pytime_fromtimeval() now return
_PyTime_MAX or _PyTime_MIN on overflow, rather than undefined
behaviour
* _PyTime_FromNanoseconds() parameter type changes from long long to
_PyTime_t
test_curses now saves/restores signals. On FreeBSD, the curses module
sets handlers of some signals, but don't restore old handlers when
the module is deinitialized.
