subtract_refs() now pass the parent object to visit_decref() which
pass it to _PyObject_ASSERT(). So if the "is freed" assertion fails,
the parent is used in debug trace, rather than the freed object. The
parent object is more likely to contain useful information. Freed
objects cannot be inspected are are displayed as "<object at xxx is
freed>" with no other detail.
In debug mode, PyObject_GC_Track() now calls tp_traverse() of the
object type to ensure that the object is valid: test that objects
visited by tp_traverse() are valid.
Fix pyexpat.c: only track the parser in the GC once the parser is
fully initialized.
bpo-36389, bpo-38376: The _PyObject_CheckConsistency() function is
now also available in release mode. For example, it can be used to
debug a crash in the visit_decref() function of the GC.
Modify the following functions to also work in release mode:
* _PyDict_CheckConsistency()
* _PyObject_CheckConsistency()
* _PyType_CheckConsistency()
* _PyUnicode_CheckConsistency()
Other changes:
* _PyMem_IsPtrFreed(ptr) now also returns 1 if ptr is NULL
(equals to 0).
* _PyBytesWriter_CheckConsistency() now returns 1 and is only used
with assert().
* Reorder _PyObject_Dump() to write safe fields first, and only
attempt to render repr() at the end.
* _Py_FindEnvConfigValue() now returns a string allocated
by PyMem_RawMalloc().
* calculate_init() now decodes VPATH macro.
* Add calculate_open_pyenv() function.
* Add substring() and joinpath2() functions.
* Fix add_exe_suffix()
And a few cleanup changes.
On Windows use UTF-16 (or UTF-32 for 32-bit Tcl_UniChar) with the
"surrogatepass" error handler for converting to/from Tcl Unicode objects.
On Linux use UTF-8 with the "surrogateescape" error handler for converting
to/from Tcl String objects.
Converting strings from Tcl to Python and back now never fails
(except MemoryError).
Following symbolic links is now limited to 40 attempts, just to
prevent loops.
Add subfunctions:
* Add resolve_symlinks()
* Add calculate_argv0_path_framework()
* Add calculate_which()
* Add calculate_program_macos()
Fix also _Py_wreadlink(): readlink() result type is Py_ssize_t, not
int.
On FreeBSD, Python no longer calls fedisableexcept() at startup to
control the floating point control mode. The call became useless
since FreeBSD 6: it became the default mode.
For now, we'll rely on the fact that the config structures aren't covered by the stable ABI.
We may revisit this in the future if we further explore the idea of offering a stable embedding API.
(cherry picked from commit bdace21b76)
Fix a bug due to the interaction of weakrefs and the cyclic garbage
collector. We must clear any weakrefs in garbage in order to prevent
their callbacks from executing and causing a crash.
bpo-22273, bpo-38321: Fix following warning:
modules\_ctypes\stgdict.c(704):
warning C4244: 'initializing': conversion from 'Py_ssize_t' to 'int', possible loss of data
bpo-38248, bpo-38321: Fix warning:
modules\_asynciomodule.c(2667):
warning C4102: 'set_exception': unreferenced label
The related goto has been removed by
commit edad4d89e3.
Add a new struct_size field to PyPreConfig and PyConfig structures to
allow to modify these structures in the future without breaking the
backward compatibility.
* Replace private _config_version field with public struct_size field
in PyPreConfig and PyConfig.
* Public PyPreConfig_InitIsolatedConfig() and
PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig()
return type becomes PyStatus, instead of void.
* Internal _PyConfig_InitCompatConfig(),
_PyPreConfig_InitCompatConfig(), _PyPreConfig_InitFromConfig(),
_PyPreConfig_InitFromPreConfig() return type becomes PyStatus,
instead of void.
* Remove _Py_CONFIG_VERSION
* Update the Initialization Configuration documentation.
test_hmac and test_hashlib test built-in hashing implementations and
OpenSSL-based hashing implementations. Add more checks to skip OpenSSL
implementations when a strict crypto policy is active.
Use EVP_DigestInit_ex() instead of EVP_DigestInit() to initialize the
EVP context. The EVP_DigestInit() function clears alls flags and breaks
usedforsecurity flag again.

* Updated _hashopenssl.c to be PEP 384 compliant
* Remove refleak test from test_hashlib. The updated type no longer accepts random arguments to __init__.
* search_for_prefix() directly calls reduce() if found is greater
than 0.
* Add calculate_pybuilddir() subfunction.
* search_for_prefix(): add path string buffer for readability.
* Fix some error handling code paths: release resources on error.
* calculate_read_pyenv(): rename tmpbuffer to filename.
* test.pythoninfo now also logs windows.dll_path
Refactor path configuration code:
* read_pth_file() now returns PyStatus to report errors, rather than
calling Py_FatalError().
* Move argv0_path and zip_path buffers out of PyCalculatePath
structures.
* On Windows, _PyPathConfig.home is now preferred over PyConfig.home.
* _PyConfig_InitPathConfig() now starts by copying the global path
configuration, and then override values set in PyConfig.
* _PyPathConfig_Calculate() implementations no longer override
_PyPathConfig fields which are already computed. For example,
if _PyPathConfig.prefix is not NULL, leave it unchanged.
* If Py_SetPath() has been called, _PyConfig_InitPathConfig() doesn't
call _PyPathConfig_Calculate() anymore.
* _PyPathConfig_Calculate() no longer uses PyConfig,
except to initialize PyCalculatePath structure.
* pathconfig_calculate(): remove useless temporary
"_PyPathConfig new_config" variable.
* calculate_module_search_path(): remove hack to workaround memory
allocation failure, call Py_FatalError() instead.
* Fix get_program_full_path(): handle memory allocation failure.
* If Py_SetPath() has been called, _PyConfig_InitPathConfig() now
uses its value.
* Py_Initialize() now longer copies path configuration from PyConfig
to the global path configuration (_Py_path_config).
