This backports several PRs for gh-113993, making interned strings mortal so they can be garbage-collected when no longer needed.
* Allow interned strings to be mortal, and fix related issues (GH-120520)
* Add an InternalDocs file describing how interning should work and how to use it.
* Add internal functions to *explicitly* request what kind of interning is done:
- `_PyUnicode_InternMortal`
- `_PyUnicode_InternImmortal`
- `_PyUnicode_InternStatic`
* Switch uses of `PyUnicode_InternInPlace` to those.
* Disallow using `_Py_SetImmortal` on strings directly.
You should use `_PyUnicode_InternImmortal` instead:
- Strings should be interned before immortalization, otherwise you're possibly
interning a immortalizing copy.
- `_Py_SetImmortal` doesn't handle the `SSTATE_INTERNED_MORTAL` to
`SSTATE_INTERNED_IMMORTAL` update, and those flags can't be changed in
backports, as they are now part of public API and version-specific ABI.
* Add private `_only_immortal` argument for `sys.getunicodeinternedsize`, used in refleak test machinery.
Make sure the statically allocated string singletons are unique. This means these sets are now disjoint:
- `_Py_ID`
- `_Py_STR` (including the empty string)
- one-character latin-1 singletons
Now, when you intern a singleton, that exact singleton will be interned.
* Add a `_Py_LATIN1_CHR` macro, use it instead of `_Py_ID`/`_Py_STR` for one-character latin-1 singletons everywhere (including Clinic).
* Intern `_Py_STR` singletons at startup.
* Beef up the tests. Cover internal details (marked with `@cpython_only`).
* Add lots of assertions
* Don't immortalize in PyUnicode_InternInPlace; keep immortalizing in other API (GH-121364)
* Switch PyUnicode_InternInPlace to _PyUnicode_InternMortal, clarify docs
* Document immortality in some functions that take `const char *`
This is PyUnicode_InternFromString;
PyDict_SetItemString, PyObject_SetAttrString;
PyObject_DelAttrString; PyUnicode_InternFromString;
and the PyModule_Add convenience functions.
Always point out a non-immortalizing alternative.
* Don't immortalize user-provided attr names in _ctypes
* Immortalize names in code objects to avoid crash (GH-121903)
* Intern latin-1 one-byte strings at startup (GH-122303)
There are some 3.12-specific changes, mainly to allow statically allocated strings in deepfreeze. (In 3.13, deepfreeze switched to the general `_Py_ID`/`_Py_STR`.)

This directory contains a number of Python programs that are useful
while building or extending Python.
build Automatically generated directory by the build system
contain build artifacts and intermediate files.
buildbot Batchfiles for running on Windows buildbot workers.
c-analyzer Tools to check no new global variables have been added.
cases_generator Tooling to generate interpreters.
ccbench A Python threads-based concurrency benchmark. (*)
clinic A preprocessor for CPython C files in order to automate
the boilerplate involved with writing argument parsing
code for "builtins".
freeze Create a stand-alone executable from a Python program.
gdb Python code to be run inside gdb, to make it easier to
debug Python itself (by David Malcolm).
i18n Tools for internationalization. pygettext.py
parses Python source code and generates .pot files,
and msgfmt.py generates a binary message catalog
from a catalog in text format.
importbench A set of micro-benchmarks for various import scenarios.
iobench Benchmark for the new Python I/O system. (*)
msi Support for packaging Python as an MSI package on Windows.
nuget Files for the NuGet package manager for .NET.
patchcheck Tools for checking and applying patches to the Python source code
and verifying the integrity of patch files.
peg_generator PEG-based parser generator (pegen) used for new parser.
scripts A number of useful single-file programs, e.g. tabnanny.py
by Tim Peters, which checks for inconsistent mixing of
tabs and spaces, and 2to3, which converts Python 2 code
to Python 3 code.
ssl Scripts to generate ssl_data.h from OpenSSL sources, and run
tests against multiple installations of OpenSSL and LibreSSL.
stringbench A suite of micro-benchmarks for various operations on
strings (both 8-bit and unicode). (*)
tz A script to dump timezone from /usr/share/zoneinfo.
unicode Tools for generating unicodedata and codecs from unicode.org
and other mapping files (by Fredrik Lundh, Marc-Andre Lemburg
and Martin von Loewis).
unittestgui A Tkinter based GUI test runner for unittest, with test
discovery.
wasm Config and helpers to facilitate cross compilation of CPython
to WebAssembly (WASM).
(*) A generic benchmark suite is maintained separately at https://github.com/python/performance
