* Replace "time.clock on windows, or time.time" with time.perf_counter()
* profile module: only use time.process_time() instead of trying different
functions providing the process time
* timeit module: use time.perf_counter() by default, time.time() and
time.clock() can still be used using --time and --clock options
* pybench program: use time.perf_counter() by default, add support for
the new time.process_time() and time.perf_counter() functions, but stay
backward compatible. Use also time.get_clock_info() to display information
of the timer.
* Rename time.steady() to time.monotonic()
* On Windows, time.monotonic() uses GetTickCount/GetTickCount64() instead of
QueryPerformanceCounter()
* time.monotonic() uses CLOCK_HIGHRES if available
* Add time.get_clock_info(), time.perf_counter() and time.process_time()
functions
* Remove _PyBytes_FormatLong(): inline it into formatlong()
* the input type is always a long, so remove the code for bool
* don't duplicate the string if the length does not change
* Use PyUnicode_DATA() instead of _PyUnicode_AsString()
importlib.util.module_for_loader also will set __loader__ along with
__package__. This is in conjunction to a forthcoming update to PEP 302
which will make these two attributes required for loaders to set.
* In debug mode, fill the string data with invalid characters
* Simplify also reference counting in PyCodec_BackslashReplaceErrors()
and PyCodec_XMLCharRefReplaceError()
be implicit.
Added a warning for when sys.path_hooks is found to be empty. Also
changed the meaning of None in sys.path_importer_cache to represent
trying sys.path_hooks again (an interpretation of previous semantics).
Also added a warning for when None was found.
The long-term goal is for None in sys.path_importer_cache to represent
the same as imp.NullImporter: no finder found for that sys.path entry.
be rebuilt, but there's no Python interpreter around to freeze the bootstrap
script.
Forgot to include Makefile.pre.in in changeset 76549:acfdf46b8de1.
