Fix the incorrect use of `os.open()` result as a context manager,
while it is actually a numeric file descriptor.
I have missed the problem, because in the original version the
`os.open()` call would always fail, and I failed to test the final
version in all possible scenarios properly.
Change the default multiprocessing start method away from fork to forkserver or spawn on the remaining platforms where it was fork. See the issue for context. This makes the default far more thread safe (other than for people spawning threads at import time... - don't do that!).

* Detect source file encoding.
* Use the "replace" error handler even for UTF-8 (default) encoding.
* Remove the BOM.
* Fix detection of too long lines if they contain NUL.
* Return the head rather than the tail for truncated long lines.
Add a helper function that checks whether the test suite is running
inside a systemd-nspawn container, and skip the few tests failing
with `--suppress-sync=true` in that case. The tests are failing because
`--suppress-sync=true` stubs out `fsync()`, `fdatasync()` and `msync()`
calls, and therefore they always return success without checking for
invalid arguments.
Call `os.open(__file__, os.O_RDONLY | os.O_SYNC)` and check the errno to
detect whether `--suppress-sync=true` is actually used, and skip
the tests only in that scenario.
There were a still a number of gaps in the tests, including not looking
at all the builtin types and not checking wrappers in subinterpreters
that weren't in the main interpreter. This fixes all that.
I considered incorporating the names of the PyTypeObject fields
(a la gh-122866), but figured doing so doesn't add much value.
The tests were only checking cases where the slot wrapper was present in the initial case. They were missing when the slot wrapper was added in the additional initializations. This fixes that.
Any cross-interpreter mechanism for passing objects between interpreters must be very careful to respect isolation, even when the object is effectively immutable (e.g. int, str). Here this especially relates to when an interpreter sends one of its objects, and then is destroyed while the inter-interpreter machinery (e.g. queue) still holds a reference to the object.
When I added interpreters.Queue, I dealt with that case (using an atexit hook) by silently removing all items from the queue that were added by the finalizing interpreter.
Later, while working on concurrent.futures.InterpreterPoolExecutor (gh-116430), I noticed it was somewhat surprising when items were silently removed from the queue when the originating interpreter was destroyed. (See my comment on that PR.)
It took me a little while to realize what was going on. I expect that users, which much less context than I have, would experience the same pain.
My approach, here, to improving the situation is to give users three options:
1. return a singleton (interpreters.queues.UNBOUND) from Queue.get() in place of each removed item
2. raise an exception (interpreters.queues.ItemInterpreterDestroyed) from Queue.get() in place of each removed item
3. existing behavior: silently remove each item (i.e. Queue.get() skips each one)
The default will now be (1), but users can still explicitly opt in any of them, including to the silent removal behavior.
The behavior for each item may be set with the corresponding Queue.put() call. and a queue-wide default may be set when the queue is created. (This is the same as I did for "synconly".)
* Move get_signal_name() from test.libregrtest to test.support.
* Use get_signal_name() in support.script_helper.
* support.script_helper now decodes stdout and stderr from UTF-8,
instead of ASCII, if a command failed.
The tests were accidentally disabled by 2da0dc0, which didn't handle classes correctly.
I considered updating no_rerun() to support classes, but the way test_datetime.py works would have made things fairly messy. Plus, it looks like the refleaks we had encountered before have been resolved.
The free-threaded build currently immortalizes objects that use deferred
reference counting (see gh-117783). This typically happens once the
first non-main thread is created, but the behavior can be suppressed for
tests, in subinterpreters, or during a compile() call.
This fixes a race condition involving the tracking of whether the
behavior is suppressed.
As reported in #117847 and #115366, an unpaired backtick in a docstring
tends to confuse e.g. Sphinx running on subclasses of standard library
objects, and the typographic style of using a backtick as an opening
quote is no longer in favor. Convert almost all uses of the form
The variable `foo' should do xyz
to
The variable 'foo' should do xyz
and also fix up miscellaneous other unpaired backticks (extraneous /
missing characters).
No functional change is intended here other than in human-readable
docstrings.
We already intern and immortalize most string constants. In the
free-threaded build, other constants can be a source of reference count
contention because they are shared by all threads running the same code
objects.
The code for Tier 2 is now only compiled when configured
with `--enable-experimental-jit[=yes|interpreter]`.
We drop support for `PYTHON_UOPS` and -`Xuops`,
but you can disable the interpreter or JIT
at runtime by setting `PYTHON_JIT=0`.
You can also build it without enabling it by default
using `--enable-experimental-jit=yes-off`;
enable with `PYTHON_JIT=1`.
On Windows, the `build.bat` script supports
`--experimental-jit`, `--experimental-jit-off`,
`--experimental-interpreter`.
In the C code, `_Py_JIT` is defined as before
when the JIT is enabled; the new variable
`_Py_TIER2` is defined when the JIT *or* the
interpreter is enabled. It is actually a bitmask:
1: JIT; 2: default-off; 4: interpreter.
Deferred reference counting is not fully implemented yet. As a temporary
measure, we immortalize objects that would use deferred reference
counting to avoid multi-threaded scaling bottlenecks.
This is only performed in the free-threaded build once the first
non-main thread is started. Additionally, some tests, including refleak
tests, suppress this behavior.
This is similar to the situation with threading._DummyThread. The methods (incl. __del__()) of interpreters.Interpreter objects must be careful with interpreters not created by interpreters.create(). The simplest thing to start with is to disable any method that modifies or runs in the interpreter. As part of this, the runtime keeps track of where an interpreter was created. We also handle interpreter "refcounts" properly.
The free-threaded build does not currently support the combination of
single-phase init modules and non-isolated subinterpreters. Ensure that
`check_multi_interp_extensions` is always `True` for subinterpreters in
the free-threaded build so that importing these modules raises an
`ImportError`.
The test suite fetches the C recursion limit from the _testcapi
extension module. Test extension modules can be disabled using the
--disable-test-modules configure option.
I had meant to switch everything to InterpreterError when I added it a while back. At the time I missed a few key spots.
As part of this, I've added print-the-exception to _PyXI_InitTypes() and fixed an error case in `_PyStaticType_InitBuiltin().
These helpers make it easier to customize and inspect the config used to initialize interpreters. This is especially valuable in our tests. I found inspiration from the PyConfig API for the PyInterpreterConfig dict conversion stuff. As part of this PR I've also added a bunch of tests.
On Windows in release mode, the test_cext and test_cppext can now
build C and C++ extensions.
* test_cext now also builds the C extension without options.
* test_cppext now also builds the C++ extension without options.
* Add C++14 test to test_cppext; C++11 is not supported by MSVC.
* Make setup_venv_with_pip_setuptools_wheel() quiet when
support.verbose is false. Only show stdout and stderr on failure.
The free-threaded GC only does full collections, so it uses a threshold that
is a maximum of a fixed value (default 2000) and proportional to the number of
live objects. If there were many live objects after the previous collection,
then the threshold may be larger than 10,000 causing
`test_indirect_calls_with_gc_disabled` to fail.
This manually sets the threshold to `(1000, 0, 0)` for the test. The `0`
disables the proportional scaling.
gh-116307: Create a new import helper 'isolated modules' and use that instead of 'Clean Import' to ensure that tests from importlib_resources don't leave modules in sys.modules.
Add a new C extension "_testlimitedcapi" which is only built with the
limited C API.
Move heaptype_relative.c and vectorcall_limited.c from
Modules/_testcapi/ to Modules/_testlimitedcapi/.
* configure: add _testlimitedcapi test extension.
* Update generate_stdlib_module_names.py.
* Update make check-c-globals.

This brings the code under test.support.interpreters, and the corresponding extension modules, in line with recent updates to PEP 734.
(Note: PEP 734 has not been accepted at this time. However, we are using an internal copy of the implementation in the test suite to exercise the existing subinterpreters feature.)
A few of our tests measure the time of CPU-bound operation, mainly
to avoid quadratic or worse behaviour.
Add a helper to ignore GC and time spent in other processes.
Add test annotations required to run the test suite on iOS (PEP 730).
The majority of the change involve annotating tests that use subprocess,
but are skipped on Emscripten/WASI for other reasons, and including
iOS/tvOS/watchOS under the same umbrella as macOS/darwin checks.
`is_apple` and `is_apple_mobile` test helpers have been added to
identify *any* Apple platform, and "any Apple platform except macOS",
respectively.
Some socket tests related to sending file descriptors cause a file descriptor leak on macOS, all of them tests that send one or more descriptors than cannot be received on the read end. This appears to be a platform bug.
This PR skips those tests when doing a refleak test run to avoid hiding other problems.
We need the TracebackException of uncaught exceptions for a single purpose: the error display. Thus we only need to pass the formatted error display between interpreters. Passing a pickled TracebackException is overkill.
When an exception is uncaught in Interpreter.exec_sync(), it helps to show that exception's error display if uncaught in the calling interpreter. We do so here by generating a TracebackException in the subinterpreter and passing it between interpreters using pickle.
Regression test that vfork is used when expected by subprocess.
This is written integration test style, it uses strace if it is present and appears to work to find out what system call actually gets used in different scenarios.
Test coverage is added for the default behavior and that of each of the specific arguments that must disable the use of vfork. obviously not an entire test matrix, but it covers the most important aspects.
If there are ever issues with this test being flaky or failing on new platforms, rather than try and adapt it for all possible platforms, feel free to narrow the range it gets tested on when appropriate. That is not likely to reduce coverage.
Use scanning "/dev/fd/" on macOS in support.fd_count(). That's both more efficient than scanning all possible file descriptors, and avoids crashing the interpreter when there are open "guarded" file descriptors.
"Guarded" file descriptors are a macOS feature where file descriptors used by system libraries are marked and cause hard crashes when used by "user" code.

Now all results from worker processes are aggregated and
displayed together as a summary at the end of a regrtest run.
The traditional trace is left in place for use with sequential
in-process test runs but now raises a warning that those
numbers are not precise.
`-T -j` requires `--with-pydebug` as it relies on `-Xpresite=`.
Copy the list of dangling threads to make sure that the list of
"Dangling thread" is complete. Previously, the list was incomplete if
threads completed just before the list was displayed.
Changes:
* Rewrite the warning to make it easier to understand.
* Use support.sleeping_retry().
* threading_cleanup() no longer copies threading._dangling,
but only counts the number of dangling thread.
* Remove support.gc_support() call.
This moves several general internal APIs out of _xxsubinterpretersmodule.c and into the new Python/crossinterp.c (and the corresponding internal headers).
Specifically:
* _Py_excinfo, etc.: the initial implementation for non-object exception snapshots (in pycore_pyerrors.h and Python/errors.c)
* _PyXI_exception_info, etc.: helpers for passing an exception beween interpreters (wraps _Py_excinfo)
* _PyXI_namespace, etc.: helpers for copying a dict of attrs between interpreters
* _PyXI_Enter(), _PyXI_Exit(): functions that abstract out the transitions between one interpreter and a second that will do some work temporarily
Again, these were all abstracted out of _xxsubinterpretersmodule.c as generalizations. I plan on proposing these as public API at some point.
- There is no longer a separate Python/executor.c file.
- Conventions in Python/bytecodes.c are slightly different -- don't use `goto error`,
you must use `GOTO_ERROR(error)` (same for others like `unused_local_error`).
- The `TIER_ONE` and `TIER_TWO` symbols are only valid in the generated (.c.h) files.
- In Lib/test/support/__init__.py, `Py_C_RECURSION_LIMIT` is imported from `_testcapi`.
- On Windows, in debug mode, stack allocation grows from 8MiB to 12MiB.
- **Beware!** This changes the env vars to enable uops and their debugging
to `PYTHON_UOPS` and `PYTHON_LLTRACE`.
* Add mimalloc v2.12
Modified src/alloc.c to remove include of alloc-override.c and not
compile new handler.
Did not include the following files:
- include/mimalloc-new-delete.h
- include/mimalloc-override.h
- src/alloc-override-osx.c
- src/alloc-override.c
- src/static.c
- src/region.c
mimalloc is thread safe and shares a single heap across all runtimes,
therefore finalization and getting global allocated blocks across all
runtimes is different.
* mimalloc: minimal changes for use in Python:
- remove debug spam for freeing large allocations
- use same bytes (0xDD) for freed allocations in CPython and mimalloc
This is important for the test_capi debug memory tests
* Don't export mimalloc symbol in libpython.
* Enable mimalloc as Python allocator option.
* Add mimalloc MIT license.
* Log mimalloc in Lib/test/pythoninfo.py.
* Document new mimalloc support.
* Use macro defs for exports as done in:

Test case matching patterns specified by options --match, --ignore,
--matchfile and --ignorefile are now tested in the order of
specification, and the last match determines whether the test case be run
or ignored.
