aifc.openfp() alias to aifc.open(), sunau.openfp() alias to
sunau.open(), and wave.openfp() alias to wave.open() have been
removed. They were deprecated since Python 3.7.
Add --upgrade-deps to venv module
- This allows for pip + setuptools to be automatically upgraded to the latest version on PyPI
- Update documentation to represent this change
bpo-34556: Add --upgrade to venv module
Add a new public PyObject_CallNoArgs() function to the C API: call a
callable Python object without any arguments.
It is the most efficient way to call a callback without any argument.
On x86-64, for example, PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(func, NULL)
allocates 960 bytes on the stack per call, whereas
PyObject_CallNoArgs(func) only allocates 624 bytes per call.
It is excluded from stable ABI 3.8.
Replace private _PyObject_CallNoArg() with public
PyObject_CallNoArgs() in C extensions: _asyncio, _datetime,
_elementtree, _pickle, _tkinter and readline.
uuid could try fallback methods that had no chance of working on a particular
platform, and this could cause spurious test failures, as well as degraded
performance as fallback options were tried and failed.
This fixes both the uuid module and its test's SkipUnless logic to use a
prefiltered list of techniques that may at least potentially work on that platform.
Patch by Michael Felt (aixtools).
In a subinterpreter, spawning a daemon thread now raises an
exception. Daemon threads were never supported in subinterpreters.
Previously, the subinterpreter finalization crashed with a Pyton
fatal error if a daemon thread was still running.
* Add _thread._is_main_interpreter()
* threading.Thread.start() now raises RuntimeError if the thread is a
daemon thread and the method is called from a subinterpreter.
* The _thread module now uses Argument Clinic for the new function.
* Use textwrap.dedent() in test_threading.SubinterpThreadingTests
Join the thread to prevent leaking a running thread and leaking a
reference.
Cleanup also the test:
* asyncioWindowsProactorEventLoopPolicy became the default policy,
there is no need to set it manually.
* Only start the thread once the loop is running.
* Use a shorter sleep in the thread (100 ms rather than 1 sec).
* Use close_loop(loop) rather than loop.close().
* Use longer variable names.
Fix a regression introduced by af8646c805 that was causing code of the form:
if True and False:
do_something()
to be optimized incorrectly, eliminating the block.
The peephole optimizer was not optimizing correctly bytecode after negative deltas were introduced. This is due to the fact that some special values (255) were being searched for in both instruction pointer delta and line number deltas.
The __exit__() method of test.support.catch_unraisable_exception
context manager now ignores unraisable exception raised when clearing
self.unraisable attribute.
Allow pure Python implementation of pickle to work
even when the C _pickle module is unavailable.
Fix test_pickle when _pickle is missing: declare PyPicklerHookTests
outside "if has_c_implementation:" block.
GH-14039: allow (no more than) one wholly empty arena on the usable_arenas list.
This prevents thrashing in some easily-provoked simple cases that could end up creating and destroying an arena on each loop iteration in client code. Intuitively, if the only arena on the list becomes empty, it makes scant sense to give it back to the system unless we know we'll never need another free pool again before another arena frees a pool. If the latter obtains, then - yes - this will "waste" an arena.
Fix a race condition at Python shutdown when waiting for threads.
Wait until the Python thread state of all non-daemon threads get
deleted (join all non-daemon threads), rather than just wait until
Python threads complete.
* Add threading._shutdown_locks: set of Thread._tstate_lock locks
of non-daemon threads used by _shutdown() to wait until all Python
thread states get deleted. See Thread._set_tstate_lock().
* Add also threading._shutdown_locks_lock to protect access to
threading._shutdown_locks.
* Add test_finalization_shutdown() test.
Calling setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "") on a system where GetACP() returns CP_UTF8 results in empty strings in _tzname[].
This causes time.tzname to be an empty string.
I have reported the bug to the UCRT team and will follow up, but it will take some time get a fix into production.
In the meantime one possible workaround is to temporarily change the locale by calling setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "C") before calling _tzset and restore the current locale after if the GetACP() == CP_UTF8 or CP_UTF7

regrtest now uses sys.unraisablehook() to mark a test as "environment
altered" (ENV_CHANGED) if it emits an "unraisable exception".
Moreover, regrtest logs a warning in this case.
Use "python3 -m test --fail-env-changed" to catch unraisable
exceptions in tests.
Fix an unintended ValueError from :func:`subprocess.run` when checking for
conflicting `input` and `stdin` or `capture_output` and `stdout` or `stderr` args
when they were explicitly provided but with `None` values within a passed in
`**kwargs` dict rather than as passed directly by name.
Currently, inspect.getfile(str) will report nonsense:
```pytb
>>> inspect.getfile(str)
TypeError: <module 'builtins' (built-in)> is a built-in class
```
This fixes that

There is a possibility that someone (like me) accidentally will omit parentheses with `FileType` arguments after `FileType`, and parser will contain wrong file until someone will try to use it.
Example:
```python
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
parser.add_argument('-x', type=argparse.FileType)
```

Replace two Python function calls with a single one to ensure that no
memory allocation is done between the invalid object is created and
when _PyObject_IsFreed() is called.
* bpo-36520: reset the encoded word offset when starting a new
line during an email header folding operation
* 📜🤖 Added by blurb_it.
* bpo-36520: add an additional test case, and provide descriptive
comments for the test_folding_with_utf8_encoding_* tests
* bpo-36520: fix whitespace issue
* bpo-36520: changes per reviewer request -- remove extraneous
backslashes; add whitespace between terminating quotes and
line-continuation backslashes; use "bpo-" instead of
"issue #" in comments
