Supported encodings: "cp932", "cp949", "cp950", "Big5","EUC-JP",
"GB2312", "GBK", "johab", and "Shift_JIS".
Partially supported encodings (only BMP characters): "Big5-HKSCS",
"EUC_JIS-2004", "EUC_JISX0213", "Shift_JIS-2004", "Shift_JISX0213",
"utf-8-sig" and non-standard aliases like "UTF8" (without hyphen).
The parser now raises ValueError for known unsupported
multi-byte encodings such us "ISO-2022-JP" or "raw-unicode-escape"
instead of failing later, when encounter non-ASCII data.
* Make _Py_ReachedRecursionLimit inline again
* Remove _Py_MakeRecCheck replacing its use with _Py_ReachedRecursionLimit
* Move the check for C stack swtiching into _Py_CheckRecursiveCall
When running profiling on Linux without sudo, attempts to read
process memory would fail with the misleading error 'Failed to find
the PyRuntime section in process <pid> on Linux platform'.
The actual issue is a permissions error because profiling was not
run with sudo. We were clearing the exception on Linux when trying
to read memory, instead, we should bubble up the permissions error
and show it properly.
Use exact remote reads for interpreter state, thread state, and
interpreter frame structs instead of pulling full remote pages into the
profiler page cache. This matches the core change from
python/cpython#149585.
The profiler clears the page cache between samples, so live entries are
always packed at the front. Track the live count and only clear/search
that prefix instead of scanning all 1024 slots on the hot path.
Use the frame cache to predict the next thread state and top frame
address, then batch interpreter/thread/frame reads with process_vm_readv
when profiling a Linux target. Reuse prefetched frame buffers in the
frame walker when the prediction is valid.
Cache the last FrameInfo tuple per code object/instruction offset, reuse
cached thread id objects, and append cached parent frames directly on
full frame-cache hits. This cuts Python allocation churn in the
steady-state profiler path.
In free-threaded builds, concurrent calls to PyDict_AddWatcher, PyDict_ClearWatcher, PyDict_Watch, and PyDict_Unwatch can race on the shared callback array and the per-dict watcher tags. This change adds a mutex to serialize watcher registration and removal, atomic operations for tag updates, and atomic acquire/release synchronization for callback dispatch in _PyDict_SendEvent.
* SEND specialization. Adds 2 new specialized instructions:
* SEND_VIRTUAL: for sends to virtual iterators e.g lists and tuples
* SEND_ASYNC_GEN: for sends to async generators
Tweak FOR_ITER_VIRTUAL so that SEND_VIRTUAL and FOR_ITER_VIRTUAL use equivalent guards
The function__entry and function__return probes stopped working in Python 3.11
when the interpreter was restructured around the new bytecode system. This change
restores these probes by adding DTRACE_FUNCTION_ENTRY() at the start_frame label
in bytecodes.c and DTRACE_FUNCTION_RETURN() in the RETURN_VALUE and YIELD_VALUE
instructions. The helper functions are defined in ceval.c and extract the
filename, function name, and line number from the frame before firing the probe.
This builds on the approach from https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/125019
but avoids modifying the JIT template since the JIT does not currently support
DTrace. The macros are conditionally compiled with WITH_DTRACE and are no-ops
otherwise. The tests have been updated to use modern opcode names (CALL, CALL_KW,
CALL_FUNCTION_EX) and a new bpftrace backend was added for Linux CI alongside
the existing SystemTap tests. Line probe tests were removed since that probe
was never restored after 3.11.
