The developer mode (-X dev) now creates all default warnings filters
to order filters in the correct order to always show ResourceWarning
and make BytesWarning depend on the -b option.
Write a functional test to make sure that ResourceWarning is logged
twice at the same location in the developer mode.
Add a new 'dev_mode' field to _PyCoreConfig.
Modify subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle -X dev
option.
Add also unit tests for test.support.args_from_interpreter_flags()
and test.support.optim_args_from_interpreter_flags().
When Python is build is debug mode (Py_DEBUG), DeprecationWarning,
PendingDeprecationWarning and ImportWarning warnings are now
displayed by default.
test_venv: run "-m pip" and "-m ensurepip._uninstall" with -W
ignore::DeprecationWarning since pip code is not part of Python.
* Run gzip with separate command line options (Android understands '-f9' as the name of a file).
* Creation of a hard link is controled by SELinux on Android.
Add a new "developer mode": new "-X dev" command line option to
enable debug checks at runtime.
Changes:
* Add unit tests for -X dev
* test_cmd_line: replace test.support with support.
* Fix _PyRuntimeState_Fini(): Use the same memory allocator
than _PyRuntimeState_Init().
* Fix _PyMem_GetDefaultRawAllocator()
Parse more env vars in Py_Main():
* Add more options to _PyCoreConfig:
* faulthandler
* tracemalloc
* importtime
* Move code to parse environment variables from _Py_InitializeCore()
to Py_Main(). This change fixes a regression from Python 3.6:
PYTHONUNBUFFERED is now read before calling pymain_init_stdio().
* _PyFaulthandler_Init() and _PyTraceMalloc_Init() now take an
argument to decide if the module has to be enabled at startup.
* tracemalloc_start() is now responsible to check the maximum number
of frames.
Other changes:
* Cleanup Py_Main():
* Rename some pymain_xxx() subfunctions
* Add pymain_run_python() subfunction
* Cleanup Py_NewInterpreter()
* _PyInterpreterState_Enable() now reports failure
* init_hash_secret() now considers pyurandom() failure as an "user
error": don't fail with abort().
* pymain_optlist_append() and pymain_strdup() now sets err on memory
allocation failure.
* Setting sys.tracebacklimit to 0 or less now suppresses printing tracebacks.
* Setting sys.tracebacklimit to None now causes using the default limit.
* Setting sys.tracebacklimit to an integer larger than LONG_MAX now means using
the limit LONG_MAX rather than the default limit.
* Fixed integer overflows in the case of more than 2**31 traceback items on
Windows.
* Fixed output errors handling.
The openfp functions of aifp, sunau, and wave had pointed to the open
function of each module since 1993 as a matter of backwards
compatibility. In the case of aifc.openfp, it was both undocumented
and untested. This change begins the formal deprecation of those
openfp functions, with their removal coming in 3.9.
This additionally adds a TODO in test_pyclbr around using aifc.openfp,
though it shouldn't be changed until removal in 3.9.
kB (*kilo* byte) unit means 1000 bytes, whereas KiB ("kibibyte")
means 1024 bytes. KB was misused: replace kB or KB with KiB when
appropriate.
Same change for MB and GB which become MiB and GiB.
Change the output of Tools/iobench/iobench.py.
Round also the size of the documentation from 5.5 MB to 5 MiB.
