Issue #26227: On Windows, getnameinfo(), gethostbyaddr() and gethostbyname_ex()
functions of the socket module now decode the hostname from the ANSI code page
rather than UTF-8.
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
Previously zipimport mistakenly limited namespace support to only the
top-level of the zipfile when it should have supported an arbitrary
depth.
Thanks to Phil Connel for the bug report and initial patch and Mike
Romberg for the final patch.
While no copyright violation occurred, the license which
'Numerical Recipes' operates under is not amenable to Python,
so to prevent confusion it's easier to simply remove its mention.
This restores 3.4 behaviour, which was removed by revision 3b5279b5bfd1. The
fstat() call fails with ENOENT for a Virtual Box shared folder filesystem if
the file entry has been unlinked, e.g. for a temporary file.
The underlying zlib library stores sizes in “unsigned int”. The corresponding
Python parameters are all sizes of buffers filled in by zlib, so it is okay
to reduce higher values to the UINT_MAX internal cap. OverflowError is still
raised for sizes that do not fit in Py_ssize_t.
Sizes are now limited to Py_ssize_t rather than unsigned long, because Python
byte strings cannot be larger than Py_ssize_t. Previously this could result
in a SystemError on 32-bit platforms.
This resolves a regression in the gzip module when reading more than UINT_MAX
or LONG_MAX bytes in one call, introduced by revision 62723172412c.
