A new extension module, `_hmac`, now exposes the HACL* HMAC (formally verified) implementation.
The HACL* implementation is used as a fallback implementation when the OpenSSL implementation of HMAC
is not available or disabled. For now, only named hash algorithms are recognized and SIMD support provided
by HACL* for the BLAKE2 hash functions is not yet used.
Optimize `LOAD_FAST` opcodes into faster versions that load borrowed references onto the operand stack when we can prove that the lifetime of the local outlives the lifetime of the temporary that is loaded onto the stack.
* Rename 'defined' attribute to 'in_local' to more accurately reflect how it is used
* Make death of variables explicit even for array variables.
* Convert in_memory from boolean to stack offset
* Don't apply liveness analyis to optimizer generated code
* Add 'out' parameter to stack.pop
* Rename 'defined' attribute to 'in_local' to more accurately reflect how it is used
* Make death of variables explicit even for array variables.
* Convert in_memory from boolean to stack offset
* Don't apply liveness analysis to optimizer generated code
* Fix RETURN_VALUE in optimizer
Modifies the behavior of the interpreter on crash under Emscripten:
1. No Python traceback shown on segfault/trap
2. The JavaScript source line is shown
The JavaScript source line is super long and completely unenlightening,
whereas the Python traceback is very helpful.
Add free-threaded versions of existing specialization for FOR_ITER (list, tuples, fast range iterators and generators), without significantly affecting their thread-safety. (Iterating over shared lists/tuples/ranges should be fine like before. Reusing iterators between threads is not fine, like before. Sharing generators between threads is a recipe for significant crashes, like before.)
The PyThreadState field gains a reference count field to avoid
issues with PyThreadState being a dangling pointer to freed memory.
The refcount starts with a value of two: one reference is owned by the
interpreter's linked list of thread states and one reference is owned by
the OS thread. The reference count is decremented when the thread state
is removed from the interpreter's linked list and before the OS thread
calls `PyThread_hang_thread()`. The thread that decrements it to zero
frees the `PyThreadState` memory.
The `holds_gil` field is moved out of the `_status` bit field, to avoid
a data race where on thread calls `PyThreadState_Clear()`, modifying the
`_status` bit field while the OS thread reads `holds_gil` when
attempting to acquire the GIL.
The `PyThreadState.state` field now has `_Py_THREAD_SHUTTING_DOWN` as a
possible value. This corresponds to the `_PyThreadState_MustExit()`
check. This avoids race conditions in the free threading build when
checking `_PyThreadState_MustExit()`.
