gh-106168: Update the size only after setting the item, to avoid temporary inconsistencies.
Also remove the "what's new" sentence regarding the size setting since tuples cannot grow after allocation.
PyTuple_SET_ITEM() and PyList_SET_ITEM() now check the index argument
with an assertion if Python is built in debug mode or is built with
assertions.
* list_extend() and _PyList_AppendTakeRef() now set the list size
before calling PyList_SET_ITEM().
* PyStructSequence_GetItem() and PyStructSequence_SetItem() now check
the index argument: must be lesser than REAL_SIZE(op).
* PyStructSequence_GET_ITEM() and PyStructSequence_SET_ITEM() are now
aliases to PyStructSequence_GetItem() and
PyStructSequence_SetItem().
When executing the BUILD_LIST opcode, steal the references from the stack,
in a manner similar to the BUILD_TUPLE opcode. Implement this by offloading
the logic to a new private API, _PyList_FromArraySteal(), that works similarly
to _PyTuple_FromArraySteal().
This way, instead of performing multiple stack pointer adjustments while the
list is being initialized, the stack is adjusted only once and a fast memory
copy operation is performed in one fell swoop.
The following macros are modified to use _Py_RVALUE(), so they can no
longer be used as l-value:
* DK_LOG_SIZE()
* _PyCode_CODE()
* _PyList_ITEMS()
* _PyTuple_ITEMS()
* _Py_SLIST_HEAD()
* _Py_SLIST_ITEM_NEXT()
_PyCode_CODE() is private and other macros are part of the internal
C API.
* Add _Py_memory_repeat function to pycore_list
* Add _Py_RefcntAdd function to pycore_object
* Use the new functions in tuplerepeat, list_repeat, and list_inplace_repeat
This change is strictly renames and moving code around. It helps in the following ways:
* ensures type-related init functions focus strictly on one of the three aspects (state, objects, types)
* passes in PyInterpreterState * to all those functions, simplifying work on moving types/objects/state to the interpreter
* consistent naming conventions help make what's going on more clear
* keeping API related to a type in the corresponding header file makes it more obvious where to look for it
