- gh-92112: Fix crash triggered by an evil custom `mro()` on a metaclass.

- gh-92036: Fix a crash in subinterpreters related to the garbage collector. When a subinterpreter is deleted, untrack all objects tracked by its GC. To prevent a crash in deallocator functions expecting objects to be tracked by the GC, leak a strong reference to these objects on purpose, so they are never deleted and their deallocator functions are not called. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- gh-91421: Fix a potential integer overflow in _Py_DecodeUTF8Ex.

- bpo-47212: Raise `IndentationError` instead of `SyntaxError` for a bare `except` with no following indent. Improve `SyntaxError` locations for an un-parenthesized generator used as arguments. Patch by Matthieu Dartiailh.

- gh-89973: Fix `re.error` raised in `fnmatch` if the pattern contains a character range with upper bound lower than lower bound (e.g. `[c-a]`). Now such ranges are interpreted as empty ranges.

- gh-93010: In a very special case, the email package tried to append the nonexistent `InvalidHeaderError` to the defect list. It should have been `InvalidHeaderDefect`.

- gh-92839: Fixed crash resulting from calling bisect.insort() or bisect.insort_left() with the key argument not equal to None.

- gh-91581: `utcfromtimestamp()` no longer attempts to resolve `fold` in the pure Python implementation, since the fold is never 1 in UTC. In addition to being slightly faster in the common case, this also prevents some errors when the timestamp is close to `datetime.min`. Patch by Paul Ganssle.

- gh-92530: Fix an issue that occurred after interrupting `threading.Condition.notify()`.

- gh-92049: Forbid pickling constants `re._constants.SUCCESS` etc. Previously, pickling did not fail, but the result could not be unpickled.

- bpo-47029: Always close the read end of the pipe used by `multiprocessing.Queue` after the last write of buffered data to the write end of the pipe to avoid `BrokenPipeError` at garbage collection and at `multiprocessing.Queue.close()` calls. Patch by Géry Ogam.

- gh-91401: Provide a fail-safe way to disable `subprocess` use of `vfork()` via a private `subprocess._USE_VFORK` attribute. While there is currently no known need for this, if you find a need please only set it to `False`. File a CPython issue as to why you needed it and link to that from a comment in your code. This attribute is documented as a footnote in 3.11.

- gh-91910: Add missing f prefix to f-strings in error messages from the `multiprocessing` and `asyncio` modules.

- gh-91810: `ElementTree` method `write()` and function `tostring()` now use the text file’s encoding («UTF-8» if not available) instead of locale encoding in XML declaration when `encoding="unicode"` is specified.

- gh-91734: Fix OSS audio support on Solaris.

- gh-91700: Compilation of regular expression containing a conditional expression `(?(group)...)` now raises an appropriate `re.error` if the group number refers to not defined group. Previously an internal RuntimeError was raised.

- gh-90568: Parsing `\N` escapes of Unicode Named Character Sequences in a `regular expression` raises now `re.error` instead of `TypeError`.

- gh-91595: Fix the comparison of character and integer inside `Tools.gdb.libpython.write_repr()`. Patch by Yu Liu.

- gh-90622: Worker processes for `concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor` are no longer spawned on demand (a feature added in 3.9) when the multiprocessing context start method is `"fork"` as that can lead to deadlocks in the child processes due to a fork happening while threads are running.

- gh-91575: Update case-insensitive matching in the `re` module to the latest Unicode version.

- gh-91581: Remove an unhandled error case in the C implementation of calls to `datetime.fromtimestamp` with no time zone (i.e. getting a local time from an epoch timestamp). This should have no user-facing effect other than giving a possibly more accurate error message when called with timestamps that fall on 10000-01-01 in the local time. Patch by Paul Ganssle.

- bpo-47260: Fix `os.closerange()` potentially being a no-op in a Linux seccomp sandbox.

- bpo-39064: `zipfile.ZipFile` now raises `zipfile.BadZipFile` instead of `ValueError` when reading a corrupt zip file in which the central directory offset is negative.

- bpo-47151: When subprocess tries to use vfork, it now falls back to fork if vfork returns an error. This allows use in situations where vfork isn’t allowed by the OS kernel.

- bpo-27929: Fix `asyncio.loop.sock_connect()` to only resolve names for `socket.AF_INET` or `socket.AF_INET6` families. Resolution may not make sense for other families, like `socket.AF_BLUETOOTH` and `socket.AF_UNIX`.

- bpo-43323: Fix errors in the `email` module if the charset itself contains undecodable/unencodable characters.

- bpo-47101: `hashlib.algorithms_available` now lists only algorithms that are provided by activated crypto providers on OpenSSL 3.0. Legacy algorithms are not listed unless the legacy provider has been loaded into the default OSSL context.

- bpo-28249: Set `doctest.DocTest.lineno` to `None` when object does not have `__doc__`.

- bpo-45138: Fix a regression in the `sqlite3` trace callback where bound parameters were not expanded in the passed statement string. The regression was introduced in Python 3.10 by bpo-40318. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-44493: Add missing terminated NUL in sockaddr_un’s length

  This was potentially observable when using non-abstract AF_UNIX datagram sockets to processes written in another programming language.

- bpo-42627: Fix incorrect parsing of Windows registry proxy settings

- bpo-36073: Raise `ProgrammingError` instead of segfaulting on recursive usage of cursors in `sqlite3` converters. Patch by Sergey Fedoseev.

- bpo-43721: Fix docstrings of `getter`, `setter`, and `deleter` to clarify that they create a new copy of the property.

- bpo-46503: Fix an assert when parsing some invalid N escape sequences in f-strings.

- bpo-46417: Fix a race condition on setting a type `__bases__` attribute: the internal function `add_subclass()` now gets the `PyTypeObject.tp_subclasses` member after calling `PyWeakref_NewRef()` which can trigger a garbage collection which can indirectly modify `PyTypeObject.tp_subclasses`. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-46383: Fix invalid signature of `_zoneinfo`’s `module_free` function to resolve a crash on wasm32-emscripten platform.

- bpo-30511: Clarify that `shutil.make_archive()` is not thread-safe due to reliance on changing the current working directory.

- bpo-44561: Update of three expired hyperlinks in Doc/distributing/index.rst: «Project structure», «Building and packaging the project», and «Uploading the project to the Python Packaging Index».

- bpo-44613: importlib.metadata is no longer provisional.

- bpo-44544: List all kwargs for `textwrap.wrap()`, `textwrap.fill()`, and `textwrap.shorten()`. Now, there are nav links to attributes of `TextWrap`, which makes navigation much easier while minimizing duplication in the documentation.

- bpo-44453: Fix documentation for the return type of `sysconfig.get_path()`.

### Pruebas

- bpo-44734: Fixed floating point precision issue in turtle tests.

- bpo-44708: Regression tests, when run with -w, are now re-running only the affected test methods instead of re-running the entire test file.

- bpo-44647: Added a permanent Unicode-valued environment variable to regression tests to ensure they handle this use case in the future. If your test environment breaks because of that, report a bug to us, and temporarily set PYTHONREGRTEST_UNICODE_GUARD=0 in your test environment.

- bpo-44515: Adjust recently added contextlib tests to avoid assuming the use of a refcounted GC

### Ventanas

- bpo-44572: Avoid consuming standard input in the `platform` module

- bpo-40263: This is a follow-on bug from https://bugs.python.org/issue26903. Once that is applied we run into an off-by-one assertion problem. The assert was not correct.

### Mac OS

- bpo-41972: The framework build’s user header path in sysconfig is changed to add a “pythonX.Y” component to match distutils’s behavior.

- bpo-34932: Add socket.TCP_KEEPALIVE support for macOS. Patch by Shane Harvey.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-44756: In the Makefile for documentation (`Doc/Makefile`), the `build` rule is dependent on the `venv` rule. Therefore, `html`, `latex`, and other build-dependent rules are also now dependent on `venv`. The `venv` rule only performs an action if `$(VENVDIR)` does not exist. `Doc/README.rst` was updated; most users now only need to type `make html`.

### API C

- bpo-41103: Reverts removal of the old buffer protocol because they are part of stable ABI.

- bpo-42747: The `Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_VERSION_TAG` type flag now does nothing. The `Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_AM_SEND` flag (which was added in 3.10) is removed. Both were unnecessary because it is not possible to have type objects with the relevant fields missing.

## Python 3.10.0 beta 4

Release date: 2021-07-10

### Seguridad

- bpo-41180: Add auditing events to the `marshal` module, and stop raising `code.__init__` events for every unmarshalled code object. Directly instantiated code objects will continue to raise an event, and audit event handlers should inspect or collect the raw marshal data. This reduces a significant performance overhead when loading from `.pyc` files.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-44562: Remove uses of `PyObject_GC_Del()` in error path when initializing `types.GenericAlias`.

- bpo-41486: Fix a memory consumption and copying performance regression in earlier 3.10 beta releases if someone used an output buffer larger than 4GiB with zlib.decompress on input data that expands that large.

- bpo-44553: Implement GC methods for `types.Union` to break reference cycles and prevent memory leaks.

- bpo-44523: Remove the pass-through for `hash()` of `weakref.proxy` objects to prevent unintended consequences when the original referred object dies while the proxy is part of a hashable object. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-44483: Fix a crash in `types.Union` objects when creating a union of an object with bad `__module__` field.

- bpo-44297: Make sure that the line number is set when entering a comprehension scope. Ensures that backtraces inclusing generator expressions show the correct line number.

- bpo-44456: Improve the syntax error when mixing positional and keyword patterns. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-44368: Improve syntax errors for invalid «as» targets. Patch by Pablo Galindo

- bpo-44317: Improve tokenizer error with improved locations. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-43667: Improve Unicode support in non-UTF locales on Oracle Solaris. This issue does not affect other Solaris systems.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-44558: Make the implementation consistency of `indexOf()` between C and Python versions. Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-34798: Break up paragraph about `pprint.PrettyPrinter` construction parameters to make it easier to read.

- bpo-44516: Update vendored pip to 21.1.3

- bpo-44468: `typing.get_type_hints()` now finds annotations in classes and base classes with unexpected `__module__`. Previously, it skipped those MRO elements.

- bpo-43977: Set the proper `Py_TPFLAGS_MAPPING` and `Py_TPFLAGS_SEQUENCE` flags for subclasses created before a parent has been registered as a `collections.abc.Mapping` or `collections.abc.Sequence`.

- bpo-44482: Fix very unlikely resource leak in `glob` in alternate Python implementations.

- bpo-44466: The `faulthandler` module now detects if a fatal error occurs during a garbage collector collection. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-44404: `tkinter`’s `after()` method now supports callables without the `__name__` attribute.

- bpo-44458: `BUFFER_BLOCK_SIZE` is now declared static, to avoid linking collisions when bz2, lmza or zlib are statically linked.

- bpo-44464: Remove exception for flake8 in deprecated importlib.metadata interfaces. Sync with importlib_metadata 4.6.

- bpo-44446: Take into account that `lineno` might be `None` in `traceback.FrameSummary`.

- bpo-44439: Fix in `bz2.BZ2File.write()` / `lzma.LZMAFile.write()` methods, when the input data is an object that supports the buffer protocol, the file length may be wrong.

- bpo-44434: _thread.start_new_thread() no longer calls PyThread_exit_thread() explicitly at the thread exit, the call was redundant. On Linux with the glibc, pthread_exit() aborts the whole process if dlopen() fails to open libgcc_s.so file (ex: EMFILE error). Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-44395: Fix `as_string()` to pass unixfrom properly. Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-34266: Handle exceptions from parsing the arg of `pdb`’s run/restart command.

- bpo-44077: It’s now possible to receive the type of service (ToS), a.k.a. differentiated services (DS), a.k.a. differenciated services code point (DSCP) and excplicit congestion notification (ECN) IP header fields with `socket.IP_RECVTOS`.

- bpo-43024: Improve the help signature of `traceback.print_exception()`, `traceback.format_exception()` and `traceback.format_exception_only()`.

- bpo-30256: Pass multiprocessing BaseProxy argument `manager_owned` through AutoProxy.

### Documentación

- bpo-44558: Match the docstring and python implementation of `countOf()` to the behavior of its c implementation.

- bpo-38062: Clarify that atexit uses equality comparisons internally.

- bpo-40620: Convert examples in tutorial controlflow.rst section 4.3 to be interpreter-demo style.

- bpo-13814: In the Design FAQ, answer «Why don’t generators support the with statement?»

- bpo-41621: Document that `collections.defaultdict` parameter `default_factory` defaults to None and is positional-only.

### Pruebas

- bpo-44287: Fix asyncio test_popen() of test_windows_utils by using a longer timeout. Use military grade battle-tested `test.support.SHORT_TIMEOUT` timeout rather than a hardcoded timeout of 10 seconds: it’s 30 seconds by default, but it is made longer on slow buildbots. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-44451: Reset `DeprecationWarning` filters in `test.test_importlib.test_metadata_api.APITests.test_entry_points_by_index` to avoid `StopIteration` error if `DeprecationWarnings` are ignored.

- bpo-30256: Add test for nested queues when using `multiprocessing` shared objects `AutoProxy[Queue]` inside `ListProxy` and `DictProxy`

### Construir

- bpo-44535: Enable building using a Visual Studio 2022 install on Windows.

- bpo-43298: Improved error message when building without a Windows SDK installed.

### Ventanas

- bpo-44582: Accelerate speed of `mimetypes` initialization using a native implementation of the registry scan.

- bpo-41299: Fix 16ms jitter when using timeouts in `threading`, such as with `threading.Lock.acquire()` or `threading.Condition.wait()`.

### API C

- bpo-44441: `Py_RunMain()` now resets `PyImport_Inittab` to its initial value at exit. It must be possible to call `PyImport_AppendInittab()` or `PyImport_ExtendInittab()` at each Python initialization. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-40939: Removed documentation for the removed `PyParser_*` C API.

## Python 3.10.0 beta 3

Release date: 2021-06-17

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-44409: Fix error location information for tokenizer errors raised on initialization of the tokenizer. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-44396: Fix a possible crash in the tokenizer when raising syntax errors for unclosed strings. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-44349: Fix an edge case when displaying text from files with encoding in syntax errors. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-44335: Fix a regression when identifying incorrect characters in syntax errors. Patch by Pablo Galindo

- bpo-44304: Fix a crash in the `sqlite3` module that happened when the garbage collector clears `sqlite.Statement` objects. Patch by Pablo Galindo

- bpo-44305: Improve error message for `try` blocks without `except` or `finally` blocks. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-43833: Emit a deprecation warning if the numeric literal is immediately followed by one of keywords: and, else, for, if, in, is, or. Raise a syntax error with more informative message if it is immediately followed by other keyword or identifier.

- bpo-11105: When compiling `ast.AST` objects with recursive references through `compile()`, the interpreter doesn’t crash anymore instead it raises a `RecursionError`.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-42972: The _thread.RLock type now fully implement the GC protocol: add a traverse function and the `Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_GC` flag. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-44422: The `threading.enumerate()` function now uses a reentrant lock to prevent a hang on reentrant call. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-44389: Fix deprecation of `ssl.OP_NO_TLSv1_3`

- bpo-44362: Improve `ssl` module’s deprecation messages, error reporting, and documentation for deprecations.

- bpo-44342: [Enum] Change pickling from by-value to by-name.

- bpo-44356: [Enum] Allow multiple data-type mixins if they are all the same.

- bpo-44351: Restore back `parse_makefile()` in `distutils.sysconfig` because it behaves differently than the similar implementation in `sysconfig`.

- bpo-44242: Remove missing flag check from Enum creation and move into a `verify` decorator.

- bpo-44246: In `importlib.metadata`, restore compatibility in the result from `Distribution.entry_points` (`EntryPoints`) to honor expectations in older implementations and issuing deprecation warnings for these cases: A. `EntryPoints` objects are once again mutable, allowing for `sort()` and other list-based mutation operations. Avoid deprecation warnings by casting to a mutable sequence (e.g. `list(dist.entry_points).sort()`). B. `EntryPoints` results once again allow for access by index. To avoid deprecation warnings, cast the result to a Sequence first (e.g. `tuple(dist.entry_points)[0]`).

- bpo-44246: In importlib.metadata.entry_points, de-duplication of distributions no longer requires loading the full metadata for PathDistribution objects, improving entry point loading performance by ~10x.

- bpo-43853: Improved string handling for `sqlite3` user-defined functions and aggregates:

  - It is now possible to pass strings with embedded null characters to UDFs

  - Conversion failures now correctly raise `MemoryError`

  Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43318: Fix a bug where `pdb` does not always echo cleared breakpoints.

- bpo-37022: `pdb` now displays exceptions from `repr()` with its `p` and `pp` commands.

### Documentación

- bpo-44392: Added a new section in the C API documentation for types used in type hinting. Documented `Py_GenericAlias` and `Py_GenericAliasType`.

- bpo-38291: Mark `typing.io` and `typing.re` as deprecated since Python 3.8 in the documentation. They were never properly supported by type checkers.

- bpo-44322: Document that SyntaxError args have a details tuple and that details are adjusted for errors in f-string field replacement expressions.

### Pruebas

- bpo-44363: Account for address sanitizer in test_capi. test_capi now passes when run GCC address sanitizer.

- bpo-43921: Fix test_ssl.test_wrong_cert_tls13(): use `suppress_ragged_eofs=False`, since `read()` can raise `ssl.SSLEOFError` on Windows. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43921: Fix test_pha_required_nocert() of test_ssl: catch two more EOF cases (when the `recv()` method returns an empty string). Patch by Victor Stinner.

### Construir

- bpo-44381: The Windows build now accepts `EnableControlFlowGuard` set to `guard` to enable CFG.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-40128: Mostly fix completions on macOS when not using tcl/tk 8.6.11 (as with 3.9). The added update_idletask call should be harmless and possibly helpful otherwise.

- bpo-33962: Move the indent space setting from the Font tab to the new Windows tab. Patch by Mark Roseman and Terry Jan Reedy.

- bpo-40468: Split the settings dialog General tab into Windows and Shell/ED tabs. Move help sources, which extend the Help menu, to the Extensions tab. Make space for new options and shorten the dialog. The latter makes the dialog better fit small screens.

### API C

- bpo-43795: The list in Contenido de la API limitada now shows the public name `PyFrameObject` rather than `_frame`. The non-existing entry `_node` no longer appears in the list.

- bpo-44378: `Py_IS_TYPE()` no longer uses `Py_TYPE()` to avoid a compiler warning: no longer cast `const PyObject*` to `PyObject*`. Patch by Victor Stinner.

## Python 3.10.0 beta 2

Release date: 2021-05-31

### Seguridad

- bpo-44022: mod:`http.client` now avoids infinitely reading potential HTTP headers after a `100 Continue` status response from the server.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-43667: Improve Unicode support in non-UTF locales on Oracle Solaris. This issue does not affect other Solaris systems.

- bpo-44232: Fix a regression in `type()` when a metaclass raises an exception. The C function `type_new()` must properly report the exception when a metaclass constructor raises an exception and the winner class is not the metaclass. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-44201: Avoid side effects of checking for specialized syntax errors in the REPL that was causing it to ask for extra tokens after a syntax error had been detected. Patch by Pablo Galindo

- bpo-44184: Fix a crash at Python exit when a deallocator function removes the last strong reference to a heap type. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-44180: The parser doesn’t report generic syntax errors that happen in a position further away that the one it reached in the first pass. Patch by Pablo Galindo

- bpo-44168: Fix error message in the parser involving keyword arguments with invalid expressions. Patch by Pablo Galindo

- bpo-44143: Fixed a crash in the parser that manifest when raising tokenizer errors when an existing exception was present. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-44114: Fix incorrect dictkeys_reversed and dictitems_reversed function signatures in C code, which broke webassembly builds.

- bpo-43149: Corrent the syntax error message regarding multiple exception types to not refer to «exception groups». Patch by Pablo Galindo

- bpo-44056: Syntax errors when default `except` is not the last `except` are reported with the correct location. Patch by Mark Shannon.

- bpo-43822: The parser will prioritize tokenizer errors over custom syntax errors when raising exceptions. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-28146: Fix a confusing error message in `str.format()`.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-44254: On Mac, give turtledemo button text a color that works on both light or dark background. Programmers cannot control the latter.

- bpo-38693: Prefer f-strings to `.format` in importlib.resources.

- bpo-33693: Importlib.metadata now prefers f-strings to .format.

- bpo-44241: Incorporate minor tweaks from importlib_metadata 4.1: SimplePath protocol, support for Metadata 2.2.

- bpo-44210: Make importlib.metadata._meta.PackageMetadata public.

- bpo-43643: Declare readers.MultiplexedPath.name as a property per the spec.

- bpo-33433: For IPv4 mapped IPv6 addresses (RFC 4291 Section 2.5.5.2), the `ipaddress.IPv6Address.is_private` check is deferred to the mapped IPv4 address. This solves a bug where public mapped IPv4 addresses were considered private by the IPv6 check.

- bpo-44145: `hmac` computations were not releasing the GIL while calling the OpenSSL `HMAC_Update` C API (a new feature in 3.9). This unintentionally prevented parallel computation as other `hashlib` algorithms support.

- bpo-37788: Fix a reference leak when a Thread object is never joined.

- bpo-38908: Subclasses of `typing.Protocol` which only have data variables declared will now raise a `TypeError` when checked with `isinstance` unless they are decorated with `runtime_checkable()`. Previously, these checks passed silently. Patch provided by Yurii Karabas.

- bpo-44098: `typing.ParamSpec` will no longer be found in the `__parameters__` of most `typing` generics except in valid use locations specified by PEP 612. This prevents incorrect usage like `typing.List[P][int]`. This change means incorrect usage which may have passed silently in 3.10 beta 1 and earlier will now error.

- bpo-44089: Allow subclassing `csv.Error` in 3.10 (it was allowed in 3.9 and earlier but was disallowed in early versions of 3.10).

- bpo-44059: Register the SerenityOS Browser in the `webbrowser` module.

- bpo-36515: The `hashlib` module no longer does unaligned memory accesses when compiled for ARM platforms.

- bpo-43972: When `http.server.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler` sends a `301 (Moved Permanently)` for a directory path not ending with `/`, add a `Content-Length: 0` header. This improves the behavior for certain clients.

- bpo-28528: Fix a bug in `pdb` where `checkline()` raises `AttributeError` if it is called after `reset()`.

- bpo-43650: Fix `MemoryError` in `shutil.unpack_archive()` which fails inside `shutil._unpack_zipfile()` on large files. Patch by Igor Bolshakov.

- bpo-41730: `DeprecationWarning` is now raised when importing `tkinter.tix`, which has been deprecated in documentation since Python 3.6.

### Documentación

- bpo-42392: Document the deprecation and removal of the `loop` parameter for many functions and classes in `asyncio`.

- bpo-44195: Corrected references to `TraversableResources` in docs. There is no `TraversableReader`.

- bpo-44072: Correct where in the numeric ABC hierarchy `**` support is added, i.e., in numbers.Complex, not numbers.Integral.

- bpo-43558: Add the remark to `dataclasses` documentation that the `__init__()` of any base class has to be called in `__post_init__()`, along with a code example.

- bpo-44025: Clarify when “_” in match statements is a keyword, and when not.

### Pruebas

- bpo-31904: Ignore error string case in test_py_compile `test_file_not_exists()`.

- bpo-42083: Add test to check that `PyStructSequence_NewType` accepts a `PyStructSequence_Desc` with `doc` field set to `NULL`.

- bpo-35753: Fix crash in doctest when doctest parses modules that include unwrappable functions by skipping those functions.

### Construir

- bpo-41282: Fix broken `make install` that caused standard library extension modules to be unnecessarily and incorrectly rebuilt during the install phase of cpython.

### Ventanas

- bpo-42686: Build `sqlite3` with math functions enabled. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

### Mac OS

- bpo-43109: Allow –with-lto configure option to work with Apple-supplied Xcode or Command Line Tools.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-41611: Avoid uncaught exceptions in `AutoCompleteWindow.winconfig_event()`.

- bpo-41611: Fix IDLE sometimes freezing upon tab-completion on macOS.

- bpo-44010: Highlight the new match statement’s soft keywords: `match`, `case`, and `_`. However, this highlighting is not perfect and will be incorrect in some rare cases, including some `_`-s in `case` patterns.

- bpo-44026: Include interpreter’s typo fix suggestions in message line for NameErrors and AttributeErrors. Patch by E. Paine.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-44074: Make patchcheck automatically detect the correct base branch name (previously it was hardcoded to “master”)

### API C

- bpo-43795: The undocumented function `Py_FrozenMain()` is removed from the Limited API.

- bpo-43795: `PyCodec_Unregister()` is now properly exported as a function in the Windows Stable ABI DLL.

## Python 3.10.0 beta 1

Release date: 2021-05-03

### Seguridad

- bpo-43434: Creating `sqlite3.Connection` objects now also produces `sqlite3.connect` and `sqlite3.connect/handle` auditing events. Previously these events were only produced by `sqlite3.connect()` calls. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43998: The `ssl` module sets more secure cipher suites defaults. Ciphers without forward secrecy and with SHA-1 MAC are disabled by default. Security level 2 prohibits weak RSA, DH, and ECC keys with less than 112 bits of security. `SSLContext` defaults to minimum protocol version TLS 1.2. Settings are based on Hynek Schlawack’s research.

- bpo-43882: The presence of newline or tab characters in parts of a URL could allow some forms of attacks.

  Following the controlling specification for URLs defined by WHATWG `urllib.parse()` now removes ASCII newlines and tabs from URLs, preventing such attacks.

- bpo-43472: Ensures interpreter-level audit hooks receive the `cpython.PyInterpreterState_New` event when called through the `_xxsubinterpreters` module.

- bpo-43362: Fix invalid free in _sha3 module. The issue was introduced in 3.10.0a1. Python 3.9 and earlier are not affected.

- bpo-43762: Add audit events for `sqlite3.connect/handle()`, `sqlite3.Connection.enable_load_extension()`, and `sqlite3.Connection.load_extension()`. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43756: Add new audit event `glob.glob/2` to incorporate the new root_dir and dir_fd arguments added to `glob.glob()` and `glob.iglob()`.

- bpo-36384: `ipaddress` module no longer accepts any leading zeros in IPv4 address strings. Leading zeros are ambiguous and interpreted as octal notation by some libraries. For example the legacy function `socket.inet_aton()` treats leading zeros as octal notatation. glibc implementation of modern `inet_pton()` does not accept any leading zeros. For a while the `ipaddress` module used to accept ambiguous leading zeros.

- bpo-43075: Fix Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) vulnerability in `urllib.request.AbstractBasicAuthHandler`. The ReDoS-vulnerable regex has quadratic worst-case complexity and it allows cause a denial of service when identifying crafted invalid RFCs. This ReDoS issue is on the client side and needs remote attackers to control the HTTP server.

- bpo-42800: Audit hooks are now fired for frame.f_code, traceback.tb_frame, and generator code/frame attribute access.

- bpo-37363: Add audit events to the `http.client` module.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-43977: Prevent classes being both a sequence and a mapping when pattern matching.

- bpo-43977: Use `tp_flags` on the class object to determine if the subject is a sequence or mapping when pattern matching. Avoids the need to import `collections.abc` when pattern matching.

- bpo-43892: Restore proper validation of complex literal value patterns when parsing `match` blocks.

- bpo-43933: Set frame.f_lineno to the line number of the “with” kweyword when executing the call to `__exit__`.

- bpo-43933: If the current position in a frame has no line number then set the f_lineno attribute to None, instead of -1, to conform to PEP 626. This should not normally be possible, but might occur in some unusual circumstances.

- bpo-43963: Importing the `_signal` module in a subinterpreter has no longer side effects.

- bpo-42739: The internal representation of line number tables is changed to not use sentinels, and an explicit length parameter is added to the out of process API function `PyLineTable_InitAddressRange`. This makes the handling of line number tables more robust in some circumstances.

- bpo-43908: Make `re` types immutable. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43908: Make the `array.array` type immutable. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43901: Change class and module objects to lazy-create empty annotations dicts on demand. The annotations dicts are stored in the object’s __dict__ for backwards compatibility.

- bpo-43892: Match patterns now use new dedicated AST nodes (`MatchValue`, `MatchSingleton`, `MatchSequence`, `MatchStar`, `MatchMapping`, `MatchClass`) rather than reusing expression AST nodes. `MatchAs` and `MatchOr` are now defined as pattern nodes rather than as expression nodes. Patch by Nick Coghlan.

- bpo-42725: Usage of `await`/`yield`/`yield from` and named expressions within an annotation is now forbidden when PEP 563 is activated.

- bpo-43754: When performing structural pattern matching (PEP 634), captured names are now left unbound until the entire pattern has matched successfully.

- bpo-42737: Annotations for complex targets (everything beside simple names) no longer cause any runtime effects with `from __future__ import annotations`.

- bpo-43914: `SyntaxError` exceptions raised by the interpreter will highlight the full error range of the expression that consistutes the syntax error itself, instead of just where the problem is detected. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-38605: Revert making `from __future__ import annotations` the default. This follows the Steering Council decision to postpone PEP 563 changes to at least Python 3.11. See the original email for more information regarding the decision: https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/thread/CLVXXPQ2T2LQ5MP2Y53VVQFCXYWQJHKZ/. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-43475: Hashes of NaN values now depend on object identity. Formerly, they always hashed to 0 even though NaN values are not equal to one another. Having the same hash for unequal values caused pile-ups in hash tables.

- bpo-43859: Improve the error message for `IndentationError` exceptions. Patch by Pablo Galindo

- bpo-41323: Constant tuple folding in bytecode optimizer now reuses tuple in constant table.

- bpo-43846: Data stack usage is much reduced for large literal and call expressions.

- bpo-38530: When printing `NameError` raised by the interpreter, `PyErr_Display()` will offer suggestions of similar variable names in the function that the exception was raised from. Patch by Pablo Galindo

- bpo-43823: Improve syntax errors for invalid dictionary literals. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-43822: Improve syntax errors in the parser for missing commas between expressions. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-43798: `ast.alias` nodes now include source location metadata attributes e.g. lineno, col_offset.

- bpo-43797: Improve `SyntaxError` error messages for invalid comparisons. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-43760: Move the flag for checking whether tracing is enabled to the C stack, from the heap. Should speed up dispatch in the interpreter.

- bpo-43682: Static methods (`@staticmethod`) and class methods (`@classmethod`) now inherit the method attributes (`__module__`, `__name__`, `__qualname__`, `__doc__`, `__annotations__`) and have a new `__wrapped__` attribute. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43751: Fixed a bug where `anext(ait, default)` would erroneously return None.

- bpo-42128: `__match_args__` is no longer allowed to be a list.

- bpo-43683: Add GEN_START opcode. Marks start of generator, including async, or coroutine and handles sending values to a newly created generator or coroutine.

- bpo-43105: Importlib now resolves relative paths when creating module spec objects from file locations.

- bpo-43682: Static methods (`@staticmethod`) are now callable as regular functions. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-42609: Prevented crashes in the AST validator and optimizer when compiling some absurdly long expressions like `"+0"*1000000`. `RecursionError` is now raised instead.

- bpo-38530: When printing `AttributeError`, `PyErr_Display()` will offer suggestions of similar attribute names in the object that the exception was raised from. Patch by Pablo Galindo

### Biblioteca

- bpo-44015: In @dataclass(), raise a TypeError if KW_ONLY is specified more than once.

- bpo-25478: Added a total() method to collections.Counter() to compute the sum of the counts.

- bpo-43733: Change `netrc.netrc` to use UTF-8 encoding before using locale encoding.

- bpo-43979: Removed an unnecessary list comprehension before looping from `urllib.parse.parse_qsl()`. Patch by Christoph Zwerschke and Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-43993: Update bundled pip to 21.1.1.

- bpo-43957: [Enum] Deprecate `TypeError` when non-member is used in a containment check; In 3.12 `True` or `False` will be returned instead, and containment will return `True` if the value is either a member of that enum or one of its members” value.

- bpo-42904: For backwards compatibility with previous minor versions of Python, if `typing.get_type_hints()` receives no namespace dictionary arguments, `typing.get_type_hints()` will search through the global then local namespaces during evaluation of stringized type annotations (string forward references) inside a class.

- bpo-43945: [Enum] Deprecate non-standard mixin format() behavior: in 3.12 the enum member, not the member’s value, will be used for format() calls.

- bpo-41139: Deprecate undocumented `cgi.log()` API.

- bpo-43937: Fixed the `turtle` module working with non-default root window.

- bpo-43930: Update bundled pip to 21.1 and setuptools to 56.0.0

- bpo-43907: Fix a bug in the pure-Python pickle implementation when using protocol 5, where bytearray instances that occur several time in the pickled object graph would incorrectly unpickle into repeated copies of the bytearray object.

- bpo-43926: In `importlib.metadata`, provide a uniform interface to `Description`, allow for any field to be encoded with multiline values, remove continuation lines from multiline values, and add a `.json` property for easy access to the PEP 566 JSON-compatible form. Sync with `importlib_metadata 4.0`.

- bpo-43920: OpenSSL 3.0.0: `load_verify_locations()` now returns a consistent error message when cadata contains no valid certificate.

- bpo-43607: `urllib` can now convert Windows paths with `\\?\` prefixes into URL paths.

- bpo-43817: Add `inspect.get_annotations()`, which safely computes the annotations defined on an object. It works around the quirks of accessing the annotations from various types of objects, and makes very few assumptions about the object passed in. `inspect.get_annotations()` can also correctly un-stringize stringized annotations.

  `inspect.signature()`, `inspect.from_callable()`, and `inspect.from_function()` now call `inspect.get_annotations()` to retrieve annotations. This means `inspect.signature()` and `inspect.from_callable()` can now un-stringize stringized annotations, too.

- bpo-43284: platform.win32_ver derives the windows version from sys.getwindowsversion().platform_version which in turn derives the version from kernel32.dll (which can be of a different version than Windows itself). Therefore change the platform.win32_ver to determine the version using the platform module’s _syscmd_ver private function to return an accurate version.

- bpo-42854: The `ssl` module now uses `SSL_read_ex` and `SSL_write_ex` internally. The functions support reading and writing of data larger than 2 GB. Writing zero-length data no longer fails with a protocol violation error.

- bpo-42333: Port `_ssl` extension module to multiphase initialization.

- bpo-43880: `ssl` now raises DeprecationWarning for OP_NO_SSL/TLS* options, old TLS versions, old protocols, and other features that have been deprecated since Python 3.6, 3.7, or OpenSSL 1.1.0.

- bpo-41559: PEP 612 is now implemented purely in Python; builtin `types.GenericAlias` objects no longer include `typing.ParamSpec` in `__parameters__` (with the exception of `collections.abc.Callable`“s `GenericAlias`). This means previously invalid uses of `ParamSpec` (such as `list[P]`) which worked in earlier versions of Python 3.10 alpha, will now raise `TypeError` during substitution.

- bpo-43867: The `multiprocessing` `Server` class now explicitly catches `SystemExit` and closes the client connection in this case. It happens when the `Server.serve_client()` method reaches the end of file (EOF).

- bpo-40443: Remove unused imports: pyclbr no longer uses copy, and typing no longer uses ast. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43820: Remove an unneeded copy of the namespace passed to dataclasses.make_dataclass().

- bpo-43787: Add `__iter__()` method to `bz2.BZ2File`, `gzip.GzipFile`, and `lzma.LZMAFile`. It makes iterating them about 2x faster. Patch by Inada Naoki.

- bpo-43680: Deprecate io.OpenWrapper and _pyio.OpenWrapper: use io.open and _pyio.open instead. Until Python 3.9, _pyio.open was not a static method and builtins.open was set to OpenWrapper to not become a bound method when set to a class variable. _io.open is a built-in function whereas _pyio.open is a Python function. In Python 3.10, _pyio.open() is now a static method, and builtins.open() is now io.open().

- bpo-43680: The Python `_pyio.open()` function becomes a static method to behave as `io.open()` built-in function: don’t become a bound method when stored as a class variable. It becomes possible since static methods are now callable in Python 3.10. Moreover, `_pyio.OpenWrapper()` becomes a simple alias to `_pyio.open()`. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-41515: Fix `KeyError` raised in `typing.get_type_hints()` due to synthetic modules that don’t appear in `sys.modules`.

- bpo-43776: When `subprocess.Popen` args are provided as a string or as `pathlib.Path`, the Popen instance repr now shows the right thing.

- bpo-42248: [Enum] ensure exceptions raised in `_missing__` are released

- bpo-43744: fix issue with enum member name matching the start of a private variable name

- bpo-43772: Fixed the return value of `TypeVar.__ror__`. Patch by Jelle Zijlstra.

- bpo-43764: Add match_args parameter to @dataclass decorator to allow suppression of __match_args__ generation.

- bpo-43799: OpenSSL 3.0.0: define `OPENSSL_API_COMPAT` 1.1.1 to suppress deprecation warnings. Python requires OpenSSL 1.1.1 APIs.

- bpo-43478: Mocks can no longer be used as the specs for other Mocks. As a result, an already-mocked object cannot have an attribute mocked using `autospec=True` or be the subject of a `create_autospec(...)` call. This can uncover bugs in tests since these Mock-derived Mocks will always pass certain tests (e.g. `isinstance()`) and builtin assert functions (e.g. assert_called_once_with) will unconditionally pass.

- bpo-43794: Add `ssl.OP_IGNORE_UNEXPECTED_EOF` constants (OpenSSL 3.0.0)

- bpo-43785: Improve `bz2.BZ2File` performance by removing the RLock from BZ2File. This makes BZ2File thread unsafe in the face of multiple simultaneous readers or writers, just like its equivalent classes in `gzip` and `lzma` have always been. Patch by Inada Naoki.

- bpo-43789: OpenSSL 3.0.0: Don’t call the password callback function a second time when first call has signaled an error condition.

- bpo-43788: The header files for `ssl` error codes are now OpenSSL version-specific. Exceptions will now show correct reason and library codes. The `make_ssl_data.py` script has been rewritten to use OpenSSL’s text file with error codes.

- bpo-43766: Implement PEP 647 in the `typing` module by adding `TypeGuard`.

- bpo-25264: `os.path.realpath()` now accepts a strict keyword-only argument. When set to `True`, `OSError` is raised if a path doesn’t exist or a symlink loop is encountered.

- bpo-43780: In `importlib.metadata`, incorporate changes from importlib_metadata 3.10: Add mtime-based caching during distribution discovery. Flagged use of dict result from `entry_points()` as deprecated.

- The `P.args` and `P.kwargs` attributes of `typing.ParamSpec` are now instances of the new classes `typing.ParamSpecArgs` and `typing.ParamSpecKwargs`, which enables a more useful `repr()`. Patch by Jelle Zijlstra.

- bpo-43731: Add an `encoding` parameter `logging.fileConfig()`.

- bpo-43712: Add `encoding` and `errors` parameters to `fileinput.input()` and `fileinput.FileInput`.

- bpo-38659: A `simple_enum` decorator is added to the `enum` module to convert a normal class into an Enum. `test_simple_enum` added to test simple enums against a corresponding normal Enum. Standard library modules updated to use `simple_enum`.

- bpo-43764: Fix an issue where `__match_args__` generation could fail for some `dataclasses`.

- bpo-43752: Fix `sqlite3` regression for zero-sized blobs with converters, where `b""` was returned instead of `None`. The regression was introduced by PR 24723. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43655: `tkinter` dialog windows are now recognized as dialogs by window managers on macOS and X Window.

- bpo-43723: The following `threading` methods are now deprecated and should be replaced:

  - `currentThread` => `threading.current_thread()`

  - `activeCount` => `threading.active_count()`

  - `Condition.notifyAll` => `threading.Condition.notify_all()`

  - `Event.isSet` => `threading.Event.is_set()`

  - `Thread.setName` => `threading.Thread.name`

  - `thread.getName` => `threading.Thread.name`

  - `Thread.isDaemon` => `threading.Thread.daemon`

  - `Thread.setDaemon` => `threading.Thread.daemon`

  Patch by Jelle Zijlstra.

- bpo-2135: Deprecate find_module() and find_loader() implementations in importlib and zipimport.

- bpo-43534: `turtle.textinput()` and `turtle.numinput()` create now a transient window working on behalf of the canvas window.

- bpo-43532: Add the ability to specify keyword-only fields to dataclasses. These fields will become keyword-only arguments to the generated __init__.

- bpo-43522: Fix problem with `hostname_checks_common_name`. OpenSSL does not copy hostflags from struct SSL_CTX to struct SSL.

- bpo-8978: Improve error message for `tarfile.open()` when `lzma` / `bz2` are unavailable. Patch by Anthony Sottile.

- bpo-42967: Allow `bytes` `separator` argument in `urllib.parse.parse_qs` and `urllib.parse.parse_qsl` when parsing `str` query strings. Previously, this raised a `TypeError`.

- bpo-43296: Improve `sqlite3` error handling: `sqlite3_value_blob()` errors that set `SQLITE_NOMEM` now raise `MemoryError`. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43312: New functions `sysconfig.get_preferred_scheme()` and `sysconfig.get_default_scheme()` are added to query a platform for its preferred «user», «home», and «prefix» (default) scheme names.

- bpo-43265: Improve `sqlite3.Connection.backup()` error handling. The error message for non-existent target database names is now `unknown database <database name>` instead of `SQL logic error`. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-41282: Install schemes in `distutils.command.install` are now loaded from `sysconfig`.

- bpo-41282: `distutils.sysconfig` has been merged to `sysconfig`.

- bpo-43176: Fixed processing of a dataclass that inherits from a frozen dataclass with no fields. It is now correctly detected as an error.

- bpo-43080: `pprint` now has support for `dataclasses.dataclass`. Patch by Lewis Gaul.

- bpo-39950: Add `pathlib.Path.hardlink_to()` method that supersedes `link_to()`. The new method has the same argument order as `symlink_to()`.

- bpo-42904: `typing.get_type_hints()` now checks the local namespace of a class when evaluating PEP 563 annotations inside said class.

- bpo-42269: Add `slots` parameter to `dataclasses.dataclass` decorator to automatically generate `__slots__` for class. Patch provided by Yurii Karabas.

- bpo-39529: Deprecated use of `asyncio.get_event_loop()` without running event loop. Emit deprecation warning for `asyncio` functions which implicitly create a `Future` or `Task` objects if there is no running event loop and no explicit loop argument is passed: `ensure_future()`, `wrap_future()`, `gather()`, `shield()`, `as_completed()` and constructors of `Future`, `Task`, `StreamReader`, `StreamReaderProtocol`.

- bpo-18369: Certificate and PrivateKey classes were added to the ssl module. Certificates and keys can now be loaded from memory buffer, too.

- bpo-41486: Use a new output buffer management code for `bz2` / `lzma` / `zlib` modules, and add `.readall()` function to `_compression.DecompressReader` class. These bring some performance improvements. Patch by Ma Lin.

- bpo-31870: The `ssl.get_server_certificate()` function now has a timeout parameter.

- bpo-41735: Fix thread locks in zlib module may go wrong in rare case. Patch by Ma Lin.

- bpo-36470: Fix dataclasses with `InitVar`s and `replace()`. Patch by Claudiu Popa.

- bpo-40849: Expose X509_V_FLAG_PARTIAL_CHAIN ssl flag

- bpo-35114: `ssl.RAND_status()` now returns a boolean value (as documented) instead of `1` or `0`.

- bpo-39906: `pathlib.Path.stat()` and `chmod()` now accept a follow_symlinks keyword-only argument for consistency with corresponding functions in the `os` module.

- bpo-39899: `os.path.expanduser()` now refuses to guess Windows home directories if the basename of current user’s home directory does not match their username.

  `pathlib.Path.expanduser()` and `home()` now consistently raise `RuntimeError` exception when a home directory cannot be resolved. Previously a `KeyError` exception could be raised on Windows when the `"USERNAME"` environment variable was unset.

- bpo-36076: Added SNI support to `ssl.get_server_certificate()`.

- bpo-38490: Covariance, Pearson’s correlation, and simple linear regression functionality was added to statistics module. Patch by Tymoteusz Wołodźko.

- bpo-33731: Provide a locale.localize() function, which converts a normalized number string into a locale format.

- bpo-32745: Fix a regression in the handling of ctypes” `ctypes.c_wchar_p` type: embedded null characters would cause a `ValueError` to be raised. Patch by Zackery Spytz.

- bpo-43938: Update dataclasses documentation to express that FrozenInstanceError is derived from AttributeError.

- bpo-43778: Fix the Sphinx glossary_search extension: create the _static/ sub-directory if it doesn’t exist.

- bpo-43755: Update documentation to reflect that unparenthesized lambda expressions can no longer be the expression part in an `if` clause in comprehensions and generator expressions since Python 3.9.

- bpo-43739: Fixing the example code in Doc/extending/extending.rst to declare and initialize the pmodule variable to be of the right type.

### Pruebas

- bpo-43961: Fix test_logging.test_namer_rotator_inheritance() on Windows: use `os.replace()` rather than `os.rename()`. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43842: Fix a race condition in the SMTP test of test_logging. Don’t close a file descriptor (socket) from a different thread while asyncore.loop() is polling the file descriptor. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43843: `test.libregrtest` now marks a test as ENV_CHANGED (altered the execution environment) if a thread raises an exception but does not catch it. It sets a hook on `threading.excepthook()`. Use `--fail-env-changed` option to mark the test as failed. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43811: Tests multiple OpenSSL versions on GitHub Actions. Use ccache to speed up testing.

- bpo-43791: OpenSSL 3.0.0: Disable testing of legacy protocols TLS 1.0 and 1.1. Tests are failing with TLSV1_ALERT_INTERNAL_ERROR.

### Construir

- bpo-43567: Improved generated code refresh (AST/tokens/opcodes/keywords) on Windows.

- bpo-43669: Implement PEP 644. Python now requires OpenSSL 1.1.1 or newer.

### Ventanas

- bpo-35306: Adds additional arguments to `os.startfile()` function.

- bpo-43538: Avoid raising errors from `pathlib.Path.exists()` when passed an invalid filename.

- bpo-38822: Fixed `os.stat()` failing on inaccessible directories with a trailing slash, rather than falling back to the parent directory’s metadata. This implicitly affected `os.path.exists()` and `os.path.isdir()`.

- bpo-26227: Fixed decoding of host names in `socket.gethostbyaddr()` and `socket.gethostbyname_ex()`.

- bpo-40432: Updated pegen regeneration script on Windows to find and use Python 3.8 or higher. Prior to this, pegen regeneration already required 3.8 or higher, but the script may have used lower versions of Python.

- bpo-43745: Actually updates Windows release to OpenSSL 1.1.1k. Earlier releases were mislabelled and actually included 1.1.1i again.

- bpo-43652: Update Tcl and Tk to 8.6.11 in Windows installer.

- bpo-43492: Upgrade Windows installer to use SQLite 3.35.5.

- bpo-30555: Fix `WindowsConsoleIO` errors in the presence of fd redirection. Patch by Segev Finer.

### Mac OS

- bpo-42119: Fix check for macOS SDK paths when building Python. Narrow search to match contents of SDKs, namely only files in `/System/Library`, `/System/IOSSupport`, and `/usr` other than `/usr/local`. Previously, anything under `/System` was assumed to be in an SDK which causes problems with the new file system layout in 10.15+ where user file systems may appear to be mounted under `/System`. Paths in `/Library` were also incorrectly treated as SDK locations.

- bpo-43568: Drop support for MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET < 10.3

- bpo-44009: Provide «python3.x-intel64» executable to allow reliably forcing macOS universal2 framework builds to run under Rosetta 2 Intel-64 emulation on Apple Silicon Macs. This can be useful for testing or when universal2 wheels are not yet available.

- bpo-43851: Build SQLite with `SQLITE_OMIT_AUTOINIT` on macOS. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43492: Update macOS installer to use SQLite 3.35.4.

- bpo-42235: `Mac/BuildScript/build-installer.py` will now use «–enable-optimizations» and `--with-lto` when building on macOS 10.15 or later.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-37903: Add mouse actions to the shell sidebar. Left click and optional drag selects one or more lines, as with the editor line number sidebar. Right click after selecting raises a context menu with “copy with prompts”. This zips together prompts from the sidebar with lines from the selected text.

- bpo-43981: Fix reference leak in test_sidebar and test_squeezer. Patches by Terry Jan Reedy and Pablo Galindo

- bpo-37892: Indent IDLE Shell input with spaces instead of tabs

- bpo-43655: IDLE dialog windows are now recognized as dialogs by window managers on macOS and X Window.

- bpo-37903: IDLE’s shell now shows prompts in a separate side-bar.

### API C

- bpo-43916: Add a new `Py_TPFLAGS_DISALLOW_INSTANTIATION` type flag to disallow creating type instances. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43774: Remove the now unused `PYMALLOC_DEBUG` macro. Debug hooks on memory allocators are now installed by default if Python is built in debug mode (if `Py_DEBUG` macro is defined). Moreover, they can now be used on Python build in release mode (ex: using `PYTHONMALLOC=debug` environment variable).

- bpo-43962: _PyInterpreterState_IDIncref() now calls _PyInterpreterState_IDInitref() and always increments id_refcount. Previously, calling _xxsubinterpreters.get_current() could create an id_refcount inconsistency when a _xxsubinterpreters.InterpreterID object was deallocated. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-28254: Add new C-API functions to control the state of the garbage collector: `PyGC_Enable()`, `PyGC_Disable()`, `PyGC_IsEnabled()`, corresponding to the functions in the `gc` module.

- bpo-43908: Introduce `Py_TPFLAGS_IMMUTABLETYPE` flag for immutable type objects, and modify `PyType_Ready()` to set it for static types. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43795: `PyMem_Calloc()` is now available in the limited C API (`Py_LIMITED_API`).

- bpo-43868: `PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer()` is no longer exported by limited C API headers and by `python3.dll` on Windows. Like any function that takes `FILE*`, it is not part of the stable ABI.

- bpo-43795: Stable ABI and limited API definitions are generated from a central manifest (PEP 652).

- bpo-43753: Add the `Py_Is(x, y)` function to test if the x object is the y object, the same as `x is y` in Python. Add also the `Py_IsNone()`, `Py_IsTrue()`, `Py_IsFalse()` functions to test if an object is, respectively, the `None` singleton, the `True` singleton or the `False` singleton. Patch by Victor Stinner.

## Python 3.10.0 alpha 7

Release date: 2021-04-05

### Seguridad

- bpo-42988: CVE-2021-3426: Remove the `getfile` feature of the `pydoc` module which could be abused to read arbitrary files on the disk (directory traversal vulnerability). Moreover, even source code of Python modules can contain sensitive data like passwords. Vulnerability reported by David Schwörer.

- bpo-43285: `ftplib` no longer trusts the IP address value returned from the server in response to the PASV command by default. This prevents a malicious FTP server from using the response to probe IPv4 address and port combinations on the client network.

  Code that requires the former vulnerable behavior may set a `trust_server_pasv_ipv4_address` attribute on their `ftplib.FTP` instances to `True` to re-enable it.

- bpo-43439: Add audit hooks for `gc.get_objects()`, `gc.get_referrers()` and `gc.get_referents()`. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-27129: Update CPython bytecode magic number.

- bpo-43672: Raise ImportWarning when calling find_loader().

- bpo-43660: Fix crash that happens when replacing `sys.stderr` with a callable that can remove the object while an exception is being printed. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-27129: The bytecode interpreter uses instruction, rather byte, offsets internally. This reduces the number of EXTENDED_ARG instructions needed and streamlines instruction dispatch a bit.

- bpo-40645: Fix reference leak in the `_hashopenssl` extension. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-42134: Calls to find_module() by the import system now raise ImportWarning.

- bpo-41064: Improve the syntax error for invalid usage of double starred elements (“**”) in f-strings. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-43575: Speed up calls to `map()` by using the PEP 590 `vectorcall` calling convention. Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-42137: The import system now prefers using `__spec__` for `ModuleType.__repr__` over `module_repr()`.

- bpo-43452: Added micro-optimizations to `_PyType_Lookup()` to improve cache lookup performance in the common case of cache hits.

- bpo-43555: Report the column offset for `SyntaxError` for invalid line continuation characters. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-43517: Fix misdetection of circular imports when using `from pkg.mod import attr`, which caused false positives in non-trivial multi-threaded code.

- bpo-43497: Emit SyntaxWarnings for assertions with tuple constants, this is a regression introduced in python3.7

- bpo-39316: Tracing now has correct line numbers for attribute accesses when the the attribute is on a different line from the object. Improves debugging and profiling for multi-line method chains.

- bpo-35883: Python no longer fails at startup with a fatal error if a command line argument contains an invalid Unicode character. The `Py_DecodeLocale()` function now escapes byte sequences which would be decoded as Unicode characters outside the [U+0000; U+10ffff] range.

- bpo-43410: Fix a bug that was causing the parser to crash when emitting syntax errors when reading input from stdin. Patch by Pablo Galindo

- bpo-43406: Fix a possible race condition where `PyErr_CheckSignals` tries to execute a non-Python signal handler.

- bpo-42128: Add `__match_args__` to `structsequence` based classes. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-43390: CPython now sets the `SA_ONSTACK` flag in `PyOS_setsig` for the VM’s default signal handlers. This is friendlier to other in-process code that an extension module or embedding use could pull in (such as Golang’s cgo) where tiny thread stacks are the norm and `sigaltstack()` has been used to provide for signal handlers. This is a no-op change for the vast majority of processes that don’t use sigaltstack.

- bpo-43287: Speed up calls to `filter()` by using the PEP 590 `vectorcall` calling convention. Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-37448: Add a radix tree based memory map to track in-use obmalloc arenas. Use to replace the old implementation of address_in_range(). The radix tree approach makes it easy to increase pool sizes beyond the OS page size. Boosting the pool and arena size allows obmalloc to handle a significantly higher percentage of requests from its ultra-fast paths.

  It also has the advantage of eliminating the memory unsanitary behavior of the previous address_in_range(). The old address_in_range() was marked with the annotations _Py_NO_SANITIZE_ADDRESS, _Py_NO_SANITIZE_THREAD, and _Py_NO_SANITIZE_MEMORY. Those annotations are no longer needed.

  To disable the radix tree map, set a preprocessor flag as follows: `-DWITH_PYMALLOC_RADIX_TREE=0`.

  Co-authored-by: Tim Peters <tim.peters@gmail.com>

- bpo-29988: Only handle asynchronous exceptions and requests to drop the GIL when returning from a call or on the back edges of loops. Makes sure that `__exit__()` is always called in with statements, even for interrupts.

- bpo-42136: Deprecate all module_repr() methods found in importlib as their use is being phased out by Python 3.12.

- bpo-35930: Raising an exception raised in a «future» instance will create reference cycles.

- bpo-41369: Finish updating the vendored libmpdec to version 2.5.1. Patch by Stefan Krah.

- bpo-43422: Revert the _decimal C API which was added in bpo-41324.

- bpo-43577: Fix deadlock when using `ssl.SSLContext` debug callback with `ssl.SSLContext.sni_callback()`.

- bpo-43571: It’s now possible to create MPTCP sockets with IPPROTO_MPTCP

- bpo-43542: `image/heic` and `image/heif` were added to `mimetypes`.

- bpo-40645: The `hmac` module now uses OpenSSL’s HMAC implementation when digestmod argument is a hash name or builtin hash function.

- bpo-43510: Implement PEP 597: Add `EncodingWarning` warning, `-X warn_default_encoding` option, `PYTHONWARNDEFAULTENCODING` environment variable and `encoding="locale"` argument value.

- bpo-43521: `ast.unparse` can now render NaNs and empty sets.

- bpo-42914: `pprint.pprint()` gains a new boolean `underscore_numbers` optional argument to emit integers with thousands separated by an underscore character for improved readability (for example `1_000_000` instead of `1000000`).

- bpo-41361: `rotate()` calls are now slightly faster due to faster argument parsing.

- bpo-43423: `subprocess.communicate()` no longer raises an IndexError when there is an empty stdout or stderr IO buffer during a timeout on Windows.

- bpo-27820: Fixed long-standing bug of smtplib.SMTP where doing AUTH LOGIN with initial_response_ok=False will fail.

  The cause is that SMTP.auth_login _always_ returns a password if provided with a challenge string, thus non-compliant with the standard for AUTH LOGIN.

  Also fixes bug with the test for smtpd.

- bpo-43445: Add frozen modules to `sys.stdlib_module_names`. For example, add `"_frozen_importlib"` and `"_frozen_importlib_external"` names.

- bpo-43245: Add keyword arguments support to `ChainMap.new_child()`.

- bpo-29982: Add optional parameter ignore_cleanup_errors to `tempfile.TemporaryDirectory()` and allow multiple `cleanup()` attempts. Contributed by C.A.M. Gerlach.

- bpo-43428: Include changes from importlib_metadata 3.7:

  Performance enhancements to distribution discovery.

  `entry_points` only returns unique distributions.

  Introduces new `EntryPoints` object for containing a set of entry points with convenience methods for selecting entry points by group or name. `entry_points` now returns this object if selection parameters are supplied but continues to return a dict object for compatibility. Users are encouraged to rely on the selection interface. The dict object result is likely to be deprecated in the future.

  Added packages_distributions function to return a mapping of packages to the distributions that provide them.

- bpo-43332: Improves the networking efficiency of `http.client` when using a proxy via `set_tunnel()`. Fewer small send calls are made during connection setup.

- bpo-43420: Improve performance of `fractions.Fraction` arithmetics for large components. Contributed by Sergey B. Kirpichev.

- bpo-43356: Allow passing a signal number to `_thread.interrupt_main()`.

- bpo-43399: Fix `ElementTree.extend` not working on iterators when using the Python implementation

- bpo-43369: Improve `sqlite3` error handling: If `sqlite3_column_text()` and `sqlite3_column_blob()` set `SQLITE_NOMEM`, `MemoryError` is now raised. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43368: Fix a regression introduced in PR 24562, where an empty bytestring was fetched as `None` instead of `b''` in `sqlite3`. Patch by Mariusz Felisiak.

- bpo-41282: Fixed stacklevel of `DeprecationWarning` emitted from `import distutils`.

- bpo-42129: `importlib.resources` now honors namespace packages, merging resources from each location in the namespace as introduced in `importlib_resources` 3.2 and including incidental changes through 5.0.3.

- bpo-43295: `datetime.datetime.strptime()` now raises `ValueError` instead of `IndexError` when matching `'z'` with the `%z` format specifier.

- bpo-43125: Return empty string if base64mime.body_encode receive empty bytes

- bpo-43084: `curses.window.enclose()` returns now `True` or `False` (as was documented) instead of `1` or `0`.

- bpo-42994: Add MIME types for opus, AAC, 3gpp and 3gpp2

- bpo-14678: Add an invalidate_caches() method to the zipimport.zipimporter class to support importlib.invalidate_caches(). Patch by Desmond Cheong.

- bpo-42782: Fail fast in `shutil.move()` to avoid creating destination directories on failure.

- bpo-40066: Enum’s `repr()` and `str()` have changed: `repr()` is now EnumClass.MemberName and `str()` is MemberName. Additionally, stdlib Enum’s whose contents are available as module attributes, such as `RegexFlag.IGNORECASE`, have their `repr()` as module.name, e.g. `re.IGNORECASE`.

- bpo-26053: Fixed bug where the `pdb` interactive run command echoed the args from the shell command line, even if those have been overridden at the pdb prompt.

- bpo-24160: Fixed bug where breakpoints did not persist across multiple debugger sessions in `pdb`’s interactive mode.

- bpo-40701: When the `tempfile.tempdir` global variable is set to a value of type bytes, it is now handled consistently. Previously exceptions could be raised from some tempfile APIs when the directory did not already exist in this situation. Also ensures that the `tempfile.gettempdir()` and `tempfile.gettempdirb()` functions always return `str` and `bytes` respectively.

- bpo-39342: Expose `X509_V_FLAG_ALLOW_PROXY_CERTS` as `VERIFY_ALLOW_PROXY_CERTS` to allow proxy certificate validation as explained in https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.1.1/man7/proxy-certificates.html.

- bpo-31861: Add builtins.aiter and builtins.anext. Patch by Joshua Bronson (@jab), Daniel Pope (@lordmauve), and Justin Wang (@justin39).

### Documentación

- bpo-43199: Answer «Why is there no goto?» in the Design and History FAQ.

- bpo-43407: Clarified that a result from `time.monotonic()`, `time.perf_counter()`, `time.process_time()`, or `time.thread_time()` can be compared with the result from any following call to the same function - not just the next immediate call.

- bpo-43354: Fix type documentation for `Fault.faultCode`; the type has to be `int` instead of `str`.

- bpo-41933: Clarified wording of s * n in the Common Sequence Operations

### Pruebas

- bpo-37945: Fix test_getsetlocale_issue1813() of test_locale: skip the test if `setlocale()` fails. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-41561: Add workaround for Ubuntu’s custom OpenSSL security level policy.

### Construir

- bpo-43179: Introduce and correctly use ALIGNOF_X in place of SIZEOF_X for alignment-related code in optimized string routines. Patch by Jessica Clarke.

- bpo-43631: Update macOS, Windows, and CI to OpenSSL 1.1.1k.

- bpo-43617: Improve configure.ac: Check for presence of autoconf-archive package and remove our copies of M4 macros.

- bpo-43466: The `configure` script now supports `--with-openssl-rpath` option.

- bpo-43372: Use `_freeze_importlib` to generate code for the `__hello__` module. This approach ensures the code matches the interpreter version. Previously, PYTHON_FOR_REGEN was used to generate the code, which might be wrong. The marshal format for code objects has changed with bpo-42246, commit 877df851. Update the code and the expected code sizes in ctypes test_frozentable.

### Ventanas

- bpo-43440: Build `sqlite3` with the `R*Tree` module enabled. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-42225: Document that IDLE can fail on Unix either from misconfigured IP masquerade rules or failure displaying complex colored (non-ascii) characters.

### API C

- bpo-43688: The limited C API is now supported if Python is built in debug mode (if the `Py_DEBUG` macro is defined). In the limited C API, the `Py_INCREF()` and `Py_DECREF()` functions are now implemented as opaque function calls, rather than accessing directly the `PyObject.ob_refcnt` member, if Python is built in debug mode and the `Py_LIMITED_API` macro targets Python 3.10 or newer. It became possible to support the limited C API in debug mode because the `PyObject` structure is the same in release and debug mode since Python 3.8 (see bpo-36465).

  The limited C API is still not supported in the `--with-trace-refs` special build (`Py_TRACE_REFS` macro).

  Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43244: Remove the `pyarena.h` header file with functions:

  - `PyArena_New()`

  - `PyArena_Free()`

  - `PyArena_Malloc()`

  - `PyArena_AddPyObject()`

  These functions were undocumented, excluded from the limited C API, and were only used internally by the compiler. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43244: Remove the compiler and parser functions using `struct _mod` type, because the public AST C API was removed:

  - `PyAST_Compile()`

  - `PyAST_CompileEx()`

  - `PyAST_CompileObject()`

  - `PyFuture_FromAST()`

  - `PyFuture_FromASTObject()`

  - `PyParser_ASTFromFile()`

  - `PyParser_ASTFromFileObject()`

  - `PyParser_ASTFromFilename()`

  - `PyParser_ASTFromString()`

  - `PyParser_ASTFromStringObject()`

  These functions were undocumented and excluded from the limited C API. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43244: Remove `ast.h`, `asdl.h`, and `Python-ast.h` header files. These functions were undocumented and excluded from the limited C API. Most names defined by these header files were not prefixed by `Py` and so could create names conflicts. For example, `Python-ast.h` defined a `Yield` macro which was conflict with the `Yield` name used by the Windows `<winbase.h>` header. Use the Python `ast` module instead. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43541: Fix a `PyEval_EvalCodeEx()` regression: fix reference counting on builtins. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43244: Remove the `symtable.h` header file and the undocumented functions:

  - `PyST_GetScope()`

  - `PySymtable_Build()`

  - `PySymtable_BuildObject()`

  - `PySymtable_Free()`

  - `Py_SymtableString()`

  - `Py_SymtableStringObject()`

  The `Py_SymtableString()` function was part the stable ABI by mistake but it could not be used, because the `symtable.h` header file was excluded from the limited C API.

  The Python `symtable` module remains available and is unchanged.

  Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43244: Remove the `PyAST_Validate()` function. It is no longer possible to build a AST object (`mod_ty` type) with the public C API. The function was already excluded from the limited C API (PEP 384). Patch by Victor Stinner.

## Python 3.10.0 alpha 6

Release date: 2021-03-01

### Seguridad

- bpo-42967: Fix web cache poisoning vulnerability by defaulting the query args separator to `&`, and allowing the user to choose a custom separator.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-43321: Fix `SystemError` raised when `PyArg_Parse*()` is used with `#` but without `PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN` defined.

- bpo-36346: `PyArg_Parse*()` functions now emits `DeprecationWarning` when `u` or `Z` format is used. See PEP 623 for detail.

- bpo-43277: Add a new `PySet_CheckExact()` function to the C-API to check if an object is an instance of `set` but not an instance of a subtype. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-42990: The `types.FunctionType` constructor now inherits the current builtins if the globals dictionary has no `"__builtins__"` key, rather than using `{"None": None}` as builtins: same behavior as `eval()` and `exec()` functions. Defining a function with `def function(...): ...` in Python is not affected, globals cannot be overridden with this syntax: it also inherits the current builtins. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-42990: Functions have a new `__builtins__` attribute which is used to look for builtin symbols when a function is executed, instead of looking into `__globals__['__builtins__']`. Patch by Mark Shannon and Victor Stinner.

- bpo-43149: Improve the error message in the parser for exception groups without parentheses. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-43121: Fixed an incorrect `SyntaxError` message for missing comma in literals. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-42819: `readline`: Explicitly disable bracketed paste in the interactive interpreter, even if it’s set in the inputrc, is enabled by default (eg GNU Readline 8.1), or a user calls `readline.read_init_file()`. The Python REPL has not implemented bracketed paste support. Also, bracketed mode writes the `"\x1b[?2004h"` escape sequence into stdout which causes test failures in applications that don’t support it. It can still be explicitly enabled by calling `readline.parse_and_bind("set enable-bracketed-paste on")`. Patch by Dustin Rodrigues.

- bpo-42808: Simple calls to `type(object)` are now faster due to the `vectorcall` calling convention. Patch by Dennis Sweeney.

- bpo-42217: Make the compiler merges same co_code and co_linetable objects in a module like already did for co_consts.

- bpo-41972: Substring search functions such as `str1 in str2` and `str2.find(str1)` now sometimes use the «Two-Way» string comparison algorithm to avoid quadratic behavior on long strings.

- bpo-42128: Implement PEP 634 (structural pattern matching). Patch by Brandt Bucher.

- bpo-40692: In the `concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor`, validate that `multiprocess.synchronize()` is available on a given platform and rely on that check in the `concurrent.futures` test suite so we can run tests that are unrelated to `ProcessPoolExecutor` on those platforms.

- bpo-38302: If `object.__ipow__()` returns `NotImplemented`, the operator will correctly fall back to `object.__pow__()` and `object.__rpow__()` as expected.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-43316: The `python -m gzip` command line application now properly fails when detecting an unsupported extension. It exits with a non-zero exit code and prints an error message to stderr.

- bpo-43317: Set the chunk size for the `gzip` module main function to io.DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE. This is slightly faster than the 1024 bytes constant that was used previously.

- bpo-43146: Handle None in single-arg versions of `print_exception()` and `format_exception()`.

- bpo-43260: Fix TextIOWrapper can not flush internal buffer forever after very large text is written.

- bpo-43258: Prevent needless allocation of `sqlite3` aggregate function context when no rows match an aggregate query. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43251: Improve `sqlite3` error handling: `sqlite3_column_name()` failures now result in `MemoryError`. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-40956: Fix segfault in `sqlite3.Connection.backup()` if no argument was provided. The regression was introduced by PR 23838. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43172: The readline module now passes its tests when built directly against libedit. Existing irreconcilable API differences remain in `readline.get_begidx()` and `readline.get_endidx()` behavior based on libreadline vs libedit use.

- bpo-43163: Fix a bug in `codeop` that was causing it to not ask for more input when multi-line snippets have unclosed parentheses. Patch by Pablo Galindo

- bpo-43162: deprecate unsupported ability to access enum members as attributes of other enum members

- bpo-43146: Fix recent regression in None argument handling in `traceback` module functions.

- bpo-43102: The namedtuple __new__ method had its __builtins__ set to None instead of an actual dictionary. This created problems for introspection tools.

- bpo-43106: Added `O_EVTONLY`, `O_FSYNC`, `O_SYMLINK` and `O_NOFOLLOW_ANY` for macOS. Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-42960: Adds `resource.RLIMIT_KQUEUES` constant from FreeBSD to the `resource` module.

- bpo-42151: Make the pure Python implementation of `xml.etree.ElementTree` behave the same as the C implementation (`_elementree`) regarding default attribute values (by not setting `specified_attributes=1`).

- bpo-29753: In ctypes, now packed bitfields are calculated properly and the first item of packed bitfields is now shrank correctly.

### Documentación

- bpo-27646: Clarify that “yield from <expr>” works with any iterable, not just iterators.

- bpo-36346: Update some deprecated unicode APIs which are documented as «will be removed in 4.0» to «3.12». See PEP 623 for detail.

### Pruebas

- bpo-43288: Fix test_importlib to correctly skip Unicode file tests if the filesystem does not support them.

### Construir

- bpo-43174: Windows build now uses `/utf-8` compiler option.

- bpo-43103: Add a new configure `--without-static-libpython` option to not build the `libpythonMAJOR.MINOR.a` static library and not install the `python.o` object file.

- bpo-13501: The configure script can now use libedit instead of readline with the command line option `--with-readline=editline`.

- bpo-42603: Make configure script use pkg-config to detect the location of Tcl/Tk headers and libraries, used to build tkinter.

  On macOS, a Tcl/Tk configuration provided by pkg-config will be preferred over Tcl/Tk frameworks installed in `/{System/,}Library/Frameworks`. If both exist and the latter is preferred, the appropriate `--with-tcltk-*` configuration options need to be explicitly set.

- bpo-39448: Add the «regen-frozen» makefile target that regenerates the code for the frozen `__hello__` module.

### Ventanas

- bpo-43155: `PyCMethod_New()` is now present in `python3.lib`.

### Mac OS

- bpo-41837: Update macOS installer build to use OpenSSL 1.1.1j.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-43283: Document why printing to IDLE’s Shell is often slower than printing to a system terminal and that it can be made faster by pre-formatting a single string before printing.

### API C

- bpo-43278: Always put compiler and system information on the first line of the REPL welcome message.

- bpo-43270: Remove the private `_PyErr_OCCURRED()` macro: use the public `PyErr_Occurred()` function instead.

- bpo-35134: Move odictobject.h, parser_interface.h, picklebufobject.h, pydebug.h, and pyfpe.h into the cpython/ directory. They must not be included directly, as they are already included by Python.h: Include Files.

- bpo-35134: Move pyarena.h, pyctype.h, and pytime.h into the cpython/ directory. They must not be included directly, as they are already included by Python.h: Include Files.

- bpo-40170: `PyExceptionClass_Name()` is now always declared as a function, in order to hide implementation details. The macro accessed `PyTypeObject.tp_name` directly. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43239: The `PyCFunction_New()` function is now exported in the ABI when compiled with `-fvisibility=hidden`.

- bpo-40170: `PyIter_Check()` is now always declared as a function, in order to hide implementation details. The macro accessed `PyTypeObject.tp_iternext` directly. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-40170: Convert `PyDescr_IsData()` macro to a function to hide implementation details: The macro accessed `PyTypeObject.tp_descr_set` directly. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-43181: Convert `PyObject_TypeCheck()` macro to a static inline function. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

## Python 3.10.0 alpha 5

Release date: 2021-02-02

- bpo-42997: Improve error message for missing «:» before blocks. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-43017: Improve error message in the parser when using un-parenthesised tuples in comprehensions. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-42986: Fix parser crash when reporting syntax errors in f-string with newlines. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-40176: Syntax errors for unterminated string literals now point to the start of the string instead of reporting EOF/EOL.

- bpo-42927: The inline cache for `LOAD_ATTR` now also optimizes access to attributes defined by `__slots__`. This makes reading such attribute up to 30% faster.

- bpo-42864: Improve error messages in the parser when parentheses are not closed. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-42924: Fix `bytearray` repetition incorrectly copying data from the start of the buffer, even if the data is offset within the buffer (e.g. after reassigning a slice at the start of the `bytearray` to a shorter byte string).

- bpo-42882: Fix the `_PyUnicode_FromId()` function (_Py_IDENTIFIER(var) API) when `Py_Initialize()` / `Py_Finalize()` is called multiple times: preserve `_PyRuntime.unicode_ids.next_index` value.

- bpo-42827: Fix a crash when working out the error line of a `SyntaxError` in some multi-line expressions.

- bpo-42823: frame.f_lineno is correct even if frame.f_trace is set to True

- bpo-37324: Remove deprecated aliases to Colecciones Clases Base Abstractas from the `collections` module.

- bpo-41994: Fixed possible leak in `import` when `sys.modules` is not a `dict`.

- bpo-27772: In string formatting, preceding the width field by `'0'` no longer affects the default alignment for strings.

- bpo-42934: Use `TracebackException`’s new `compact` param in `TestResult` to reduce time and memory consumed by traceback formatting.

- bpo-42931: Add `randbytes()` to `random.__all__`.

- bpo-38250: [Enum] Flags consisting of a single bit are now considered canonical, and will be the only flags returned from listing and iterating over a Flag class or a Flag member. Multi-bit flags are considered aliases; they will be returned from lookups and operations that result in their value. Iteration for both Flag and Flag members is in definition order.

- bpo-42877: Added the `compact` parameter to the constructor of `traceback.TracebackException` to reduce time and memory for use cases that only need to call `TracebackException.format()` and `TracebackException.format_exception_only()`.

- bpo-42923: The `Py_FatalError()` function and the `faulthandler` module now dump the list of extension modules on a fatal error.

- bpo-42848: Removed recursion from `TracebackException` to allow it to handle long exception chains.

- bpo-42802: The distutils `bdist_wininst` command deprecated in Python 3.8 has been removed. The distutils `bdist_wheel` command is now recommended to distribute binary packages on Windows.

- bpo-24464: The undocumented built-in function `sqlite3.enable_shared_cache` is now deprecated, scheduled for removal in Python 3.12. Its use is strongly discouraged by the SQLite3 documentation. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-42384: Make pdb populate sys.path[0] exactly the same as regular python execution.

- bpo-42383: Fix pdb: previously pdb would fail to restart the debugging target if it was specified using a relative path and the current directory changed.

- bpo-42005: Fix CLI of `cProfile` and `profile` to catch `BrokenPipeError`.

- bpo-41604: Don’t decrement the reference count of the previous user_ptr when set_panel_userptr fails.

- bpo-38307: Add an “end_lineno” attribute to the Class and Function objects that appear in the tree returned by pyclbr functions. This and the existing “lineno” attribute define the extent of class and def statements. Patch by Aviral Srivastava.

- bpo-39273: The `BUTTON5_*` constants are now exposed in the `curses` module if available.

- bpo-33289: Correct call to `tkinter.colorchooser` to return RGB triplet of ints instead of floats. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

### Documentación

- bpo-40304: Fix doc for type(name, bases, dict). Patch by Boris Verkhovskiy and Éric Araujo.

- bpo-42811: Updated importlib.utils.resolve_name() doc to use __spec__.parent instead of __package__. (Thanks Yair Frid.)

### Pruebas

- bpo-40823: Use `unittest.TestLoader().loadTestsFromTestCase()` instead of `unittest.makeSuite()` in `sqlite3` tests. Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-40810: In `sqlite3`, fix `CheckTraceCallbackContent` for SQLite pre 3.7.15.

### Construir

- bpo-43031: Pass `--timeout=$(TESTTIMEOUT)` option to the default profile task `./python -m test --pgo` command.

- bpo-36143: `make regen-all` now also runs `regen-keyword`. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-42874: Removed the grep -q and -E flags in the tzpath validation section of the configure script to better accommodate users of some platforms (specifically Solaris 10).

- bpo-31904: Add library search path by wr-cc in add_cross_compiling_paths() for VxWorks.

- bpo-42856: Add `--with-wheel-pkg-dir=PATH` option to the `./configure` script. If specified, the `ensurepip` module looks for `setuptools` and `pip` wheel packages in this directory: if both are present, these wheel packages are used instead of ensurepip bundled wheel packages.

  Some Linux distribution packaging policies recommend against bundling dependencies. For example, Fedora installs wheel packages in the `/usr/share/python-wheels/` directory and don’t install the `ensurepip._bundled` package.

### Ventanas

- bpo-41837: Updated Windows installer to include OpenSSL 1.1.1i

- bpo-42195: The `__args__` of the parameterized generics for `typing.Callable` and `collections.abc.Callable` are now consistent. The `__args__` for `collections.abc.Callable` are now flattened while `typing.Callable`’s have not changed. To allow this change, `types.GenericAlias` can now be subclassed and `collections.abc.Callable`’s `__class_getitem__` will now return a subclass of `types.GenericAlias`. Tests for typing were also updated to not subclass things like `Callable[..., T]` as that is not a valid base class. Finally, both `Callable`s no longer validate their `argtypes`, in `Callable[[argtypes], resulttype]` to prepare for PEP 612. Patch by Ken Jin.

- bpo-40137: Convert functools module to use `PyType_FromModuleAndSpec()`.

It will not be set as the default root window and will be destroyed right after closing the dialog window. It will help to use these simple dialog windows in programs which do not need other GUI.

- bpo-25246: Optimized `collections.deque.remove()`.

- bpo-35728: Added a root parameter to `tkinter.font.nametofont()`.

- bpo-9694: Argparse help no longer uses the confusing phrase, «optional arguments». It uses «options» instead.

- bpo-1635741: Port the `_thread` extension module to the multiphase initialization API (PEP 489) and convert its static types to heap types.

- bpo-37961: Fix crash in `tracemalloc.Traceback.__repr__()` (regressed in Python 3.9).

- bpo-42630: `tkinter` functions and constructors which need a default root window raise now `RuntimeError` with descriptive message instead of obscure `AttributeError` or `NameError` if it is not created yet or cannot be created automatically.

- bpo-42639: `atexit._run_exitfuncs()` now logs callback exceptions using `sys.unraisablehook`, rather than logging them directly into `sys.stderr` and raise the last exception.

- bpo-42644: `logging.disable` will now validate the types and value of its parameter. It also now accepts strings representing the levels (as does `loging.setLevel`) instead of only the numerical values.

- bpo-42639: At Python exit, if a callback registered with `atexit.register()` fails, its exception is now logged. Previously, only some exceptions were logged, and the last exception was always silently ignored.

- bpo-36541: Fixed lib2to3.pgen2 to be able to parse PEP-570 positional only argument syntax.

- bpo-42382: In `importlib.metadata`: - `EntryPoint` objects now expose a `.dist` object referencing the `Distribution` when constructed from a `Distribution`. - Add support for package discovery under package normalization rules. - The object returned by `metadata()` now has a formally defined protocol called `PackageMetadata` with declared support for the `.get_all()` method. - Synced with importlib_metadata 3.3.

- bpo-41877: A check is added against misspellings of autospect, auto_spec and set_spec being passed as arguments to patch, patch.object and create_autospec.

- bpo-39717: [tarfile] update nested exception raising to use `from None` or `from e`

- bpo-41877: AttributeError for suspected misspellings of assertions on mocks are now pointing out that the cause are misspelled assertions and also what to do if the misspelling is actually an intended attribute name. The unittest.mock document is also updated to reflect the current set of recognised misspellings.

- bpo-41559: Implemented PEP 612: added `ParamSpec` and `Concatenate` to `typing`. Patch by Ken Jin.

- bpo-42385: StrEnum: fix _generate_next_value_ to return a str

- bpo-31904: Define THREAD_STACK_SIZE for VxWorks.

- bpo-34750: [Enum] `_EnumDict.update()` is now supported

- bpo-42613: Fix `freeze.py` tool to use the prope config and library directories. Patch by Victor Stinner.

### API C

- bpo-42591: Export the `Py_FrozenMain()` function: fix a Python 3.9.0 regression. Python 3.9 uses `-fvisibility=hidden` and the function was not exported explicitly and so not exported.

- bpo-32381: Remove the private `_Py_fopen()` function which is no longer needed. Use `_Py_wfopen()` or `_Py_fopen_obj()` instead. Patch by Victor Stinner.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-42576: `types.GenericAlias` will now raise a `TypeError` when attempting to initialize with a keyword argument. Previously, this would cause the interpreter to crash if the interpreter was compiled with debug symbols. This does not affect interpreters compiled for release. Patch by Ken Jin.

- bpo-42536: Several built-in and standard library types now ensure that their internal result tuples are always tracked by the garbage collector:

  - `collections.OrderedDict.items()`

  - `dict.items()`

  - `enumerate()`

  - `functools.reduce()`

  - `itertools.combinations()`

  - `itertools.combinations_with_replacement()`

  - `itertools.permutations()`

  - `itertools.product()`

  - `itertools.zip_longest()`

  - `zip()`

  Previously, they could have become untracked by a prior garbage collection. Patch by Brandt Bucher.

- bpo-42500: Improve handling of exceptions near recursion limit. Converts a number of Fatal Errors in RecursionErrors.

- bpo-42246: PEP 626: After a return, the f_lineno attribute of a frame is always the last line executed.

- bpo-42435: Speed up comparison of bytes objects with non-bytes objects when option `-b` is specified. Speed up comparison of bytarray objects with non-buffer object.

- bpo-1635741: Port the `_warnings` extension module to the multi-phase initialization API (PEP 489). Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-41686: On Windows, the `SIGINT` event, `_PyOS_SigintEvent()`, is now created even if Python is configured to not install signal handlers (if `PyConfig.install_signal_handlers` equals to 0, or `Py_InitializeEx(0)`).

- bpo-42381: Allow assignment expressions in set literals and set comprehensions as per PEP 572. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-42202: Change function parameters annotations internal representation to tuple of strings. Patch provided by Yurii Karabas.

- bpo-42374: Fix a regression introduced by the new parser, where an unparenthesized walrus operator was not allowed within generator expressions.

- bpo-42316: Allow an unparenthesized walrus in subscript indexes.

- bpo-42349: Make sure that the compiler front-end produces a well-formed control flow graph. Be be more aggressive in the compiler back-end, as it is now safe to do so.

- bpo-42296: On Windows, fix a regression in signal handling which prevented to interrupt a program using CTRL+C. The signal handler can be run in a thread different than the Python thread, in which case the test deciding if the thread can handle signals is wrong.

- bpo-42332: `types.GenericAlias` objects can now be the targets of weakrefs.

- bpo-42282: Optimise constant subexpressions that appear as part of named expressions (previously the AST optimiser did not descend into named expressions). Patch by Nick Coghlan.

- bpo-42266: Fixed a bug with the LOAD_ATTR opcode cache that was not respecting monkey-patching a class-level attribute to make it a descriptor. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-40077: Convert `queue` to use heap types.

- bpo-40077: Convert `mmap` to use heap types.

- bpo-42233: Allow `GenericAlias` objects to use union type expressions. This allows expressions like `list[int] | dict[float, str]` where previously a `TypeError` would have been thrown. This also fixes union type expressions not de-duplicating `GenericAlias` objects. (Contributed by Ken Jin in bpo-42233.)

- bpo-26131: The import system triggers a `ImportWarning` when it falls back to using `load_module()`.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-5054: CGIHTTPRequestHandler.run_cgi() HTTP_ACCEPT improperly parsed. Replace the special purpose getallmatchingheaders with generic get_all method and add relevant tests.

  Original Patch by Martin Panter. Modified by Senthil Kumaran.

- bpo-42562: Fix issue when dis failed to parse function that has no line numbers. Patch provided by Yurii Karabas.

- bpo-17735: `inspect.findsource()` now raises `OSError` instead of `IndexError` when `co_lineno` of a code object is greater than the file length. This can happen, for example, when a file is edited after it was imported. PR by Irit Katriel.

- bpo-42116: Fix handling of trailing comments by `inspect.getsource()`.

- bpo-42532: Remove unexpected call of `__bool__` when passing a `spec_arg` argument to a Mock.

- bpo-38200: Added itertools.pairwise()

- bpo-41818: Fix test_master_read() so that it succeeds on all platforms that either raise OSError or return b»» upon reading from master.

- bpo-42487: ChainMap.__iter__ no longer calls __getitem__ on underlying maps

- bpo-42482: `TracebackException` no longer holds a reference to the exception’s traceback object. Consequently, instances of TracebackException for equivalent but non-equal exceptions now compare as equal.

- bpo-41818: Make test_openpty() avoid unexpected success due to number of rows and/or number of columns being == 0.

- bpo-42392: Remove loop parameter from `asyncio.subprocess` and `asyncio.tasks` functions. Patch provided by Yurii Karabas.

- bpo-28468: Add `platform.freedesktop_os_release()` function to parse freedesktop.org `os-release` files.

- bpo-42299: Removed the `formatter` module, which was deprecated in Python 3.4. It is somewhat obsolete, little used, and not tested. It was originally scheduled to be removed in Python 3.6, but such removals were delayed until after Python 2.7 EOL. Existing users should copy whatever classes they use into their code. Patch by Dong-hee Na and and Terry J. Reedy.

- bpo-26131: Deprecate zipimport.zipimporter.load_module() in favour of exec_module().

- bpo-41818: Updated tests for the pty library. test_basic() has been changed to test_openpty(); this additionally checks if slave termios and slave winsize are being set properly by pty.openpty(). In order to add support for FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and Darwin, this also adds test_master_read(), which demonstrates that pty.spawn() should not depend on an OSError to exit from its copy loop.

- bpo-42392: Remove loop parameter from `__init__` in all `asyncio.locks` and `asyncio.Queue` classes. Patch provided by Yurii Karabas.

- bpo-15450: Make `filecmp.dircmp` respect subclassing. Now the `filecmp.dircmp.subdirs` behaves as expected when subclassing dircmp.

- bpo-42413: The exception `socket.timeout` is now an alias of `TimeoutError`.

- bpo-31904: Support signal module on VxWorks.

- bpo-42406: We fixed an issue in `pickle.whichmodule` in which importing `multiprocessing` could change the how pickle identifies which module an object belongs to, potentially breaking the unpickling of those objects.

- bpo-42403: Simplify the `importlib` external bootstrap code: `importlib._bootstrap_external` now uses regular imports to import builtin modules. When it is imported, the builtin `__import__()` function is already fully working and so can be used to import builtin modules like `sys`. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-1635741: Convert _sre module types to heap types (PEP 384). Patch by Erlend E. Aasland.

- bpo-42375: subprocess module update for DragonFlyBSD support.

- bpo-41713: Port the `_signal` extension module to the multi-phase initialization API (PEP 489). Patch by Victor Stinner and Mohamed Koubaa.

- bpo-37205: `time.time()`, `time.perf_counter()` and `time.monotonic()` functions can no longer fail with a Python fatal error, instead raise a regular Python exception on failure.

- bpo-42328: Fixed `tkinter.ttk.Style.map()`. The function accepts now the representation of the default state as empty sequence (as returned by `Style.map()`). The structure of the result is now the same on all platform and does not depend on the value of `wantobjects`.

- bpo-42345: Fix various issues with `typing.Literal` parameter handling (flatten, deduplicate, use type to cache key). Patch provided by Yurii Karabas.

- bpo-37205: `time.perf_counter()` on Windows and `time.monotonic()` on macOS are now system-wide. Previously, they used an offset computed at startup to reduce the precision loss caused by the float type. Use `time.perf_counter_ns()` and `time.monotonic_ns()` added in Python 3.7 to avoid this precision loss.

- bpo-42318: Fixed support of non-BMP characters in `tkinter` on macOS.

- bpo-42350: Fix the `threading.Thread` class at fork: do nothing if the thread is already stopped (ex: fork called at Python exit). Previously, an error was logged in the child process.

- bpo-42333: Port _ssl extension module to heap types.

- bpo-42014: The `onerror` callback from `shutil.rmtree` now receives correct function when `os.open` fails.

- bpo-42237: Fix `os.sendfile()` on illumos.

- bpo-42308: Add `threading.__excepthook__` to allow retrieving the original value of `threading.excepthook()` in case it is set to a broken or a different value. Patch by Mario Corchero.

- bpo-42131: Implement PEP 451/spec methods on zipimport.zipimporter: find_spec(), create_module(), and exec_module().

  This also allows for the documented deprecation of find_loader(), find_module(), and load_module().

- bpo-41877: Mock objects which are not unsafe will now raise an AttributeError if an attribute with the prefix asert, aseert, or assrt is accessed, in addition to this already happening for the prefixes assert or assret.

- bpo-42264: `sqlite3.OptimizedUnicode` has been undocumented and obsolete since Python 3.3, when it was made an alias to `str`. It is now deprecated, scheduled for removal in Python 3.12.

- bpo-42251: Added `threading.gettrace()` and `threading.getprofile()` to retrieve the functions set by `threading.settrace()` and `threading.setprofile()` respectively. Patch by Mario Corchero.

- bpo-42249: Fixed writing binary Plist files larger than 4 GiB.

- bpo-42236: On Unix, the `os.device_encoding()` function now returns `'UTF-8'` rather than the device encoding if the Python UTF-8 Mode is enabled.

- bpo-41754: webbrowser: Ignore NotADirectoryError when calling `xdg-settings`.

- bpo-42183: Fix a stack overflow error for asyncio Task or Future repr().

  The overflow occurs under some circumstances when a Task or Future recursively returns itself.

- bpo-42140: Improve asyncio.wait function to create the futures set just one time.

- bpo-42133: Update various modules in the stdlib to fall back on `__spec__.loader` when `__loader__` isn’t defined on a module.

- bpo-26131: The `load_module()` methods found in importlib now trigger a DeprecationWarning.

- bpo-39825: Windows: Change `sysconfig.get_config_var('EXT_SUFFIX')` to the expected full `platform_tag.extension` format. Previously it was hard-coded to `.pyd`, now it is compatible with `distutils.sysconfig` and will result in something like `.cp38-win_amd64.pyd`. This brings windows into conformance with the other platforms.

- bpo-26389: The `traceback.format_exception()`, `traceback.format_exception_only()`, and `traceback.print_exception()` functions can now take an exception object as a positional-only argument.

- bpo-41889: Enum: fix regression involving inheriting a multiply inherited enum

- bpo-41543: Add async context manager support for contextlib.nullcontext.

- bpo-21041: `pathlib.PurePath.parents` now supports negative indexing. Patch contributed by Yaroslav Pankovych.

- bpo-41332: Added missing connect_accepted_socket() method to `asyncio.AbstractEventLoop`.

- bpo-12800: Extracting a symlink from a tarball should succeed and overwrite the symlink if it already exists. The fix is to remove the existing file or symlink before extraction. Based on patch by Chris AtLee, Jeffrey Kintscher, and Senthil Kumaran.

- bpo-40968: `urllib.request` and `http.client` now send `http/1.1` ALPN extension during TLS handshake when no custom context is supplied.

- bpo-41001: Add func:`os.eventfd` to provide a low level interface for Linux’s event notification file descriptor.

- bpo-40816: Add AsyncContextDecorator to contextlib to support async context manager as a decorator.

- bpo-1635741: Port _queue extension module to multiphase initialization (PEP 489)

- bpo-39573: Convert `Py_TYPE()` and `Py_SIZE()` back to macros to allow using them as an l-value. Many third party C extension modules rely on the ability of using Py_TYPE() and Py_SIZE() to set an object type and size: `Py_TYPE(obj) = type;` and `Py_SIZE(obj) = size;`.

- bpo-1635741: Port `symtable` extension module to multiphase initialization (PEP 489)

- bpo-1635741: Port `grp` and `pwd` extension modules to multiphase initialization (PEP 489)

- bpo-40170: The `Py_TRASHCAN_BEGIN` macro no longer accesses PyTypeObject attributes, but now can get the condition by calling the new private `_PyTrash_cond()` function which hides implementation details.

- bpo-42260: `Py_GetPath()`, `Py_GetPrefix()`, `Py_GetExecPrefix()`, `Py_GetProgramFullPath()`, `Py_GetPythonHome()` and `Py_GetProgramName()` functions now return `NULL` if called before `Py_Initialize()` (before Python is initialized). Use the new Python Initialization Configuration API to get the Python Path Configuration.. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-42260: The `PyConfig_Read()` function now only parses `PyConfig.argv` arguments once: `PyConfig.parse_argv` is set to `2` after arguments are parsed. Since Python arguments are strippped from `PyConfig.argv`, parsing arguments twice would parse the application options as Python options.

- bpo-42262: Added `Py_NewRef()` and `Py_XNewRef()` functions to increment the reference count of an object and return the object. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-42260: When `Py_Initialize()` is called twice, the second call now updates more `sys` attributes for the configuration, rather than only `sys.argv`. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-41832: The `PyType_FromModuleAndSpec()` function now accepts NULL `tp_doc` slot.

- bpo-1635741: Added `PyModule_AddObjectRef()` function: similar to `PyModule_AddObject()` but don’t steal a reference to the value on success. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-42171: The `METH_FASTCALL` calling convention is added to the limited API. The functions `PyModule_AddType()`, `PyType_FromModuleAndSpec()`, `PyType_GetModule()` and `PyType_GetModuleState()` are added to the limited API on Windows.

- bpo-42085: Add dedicated entry to PyAsyncMethods for sending values

- bpo-41073: `PyType_GetSlot()` can now accept static types.

- bpo-30459: `PyList_SET_ITEM()`, `PyTuple_SET_ITEM()` and `PyCell_SET()` macros can no longer be used as l-value or r-value. For example, `x = PyList_SET_ITEM(a, b, c)` and `PyList_SET_ITEM(a, b, c) = x` now fail with a compiler error. It prevents bugs like `if (PyList_SET_ITEM (a, b, c) < 0) ...` test. Patch by Zackery Spytz and Victor Stinner.

- bpo-42150: Fix possible buffer overflow in the new parser when checking for continuation lines. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-42123: Run the parser two times. On the first run, disable all the rules that only generate better error messages to gain performance. If there’s a parse failure, run the parser a second time with those enabled.

- bpo-41902: Micro optimization when compute `sq_item` and `mp_subscript` of `range`. Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-41894: When loading a native module and a load failure occurs, prevent a possible UnicodeDecodeError when not running in a UTF-8 locale by decoding the load error message using the current locale’s encoding.

- bpo-41902: Micro optimization for range.index if step is 1. Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-41435: Add `sys._current_exceptions()` function to retrieve a dictionary mapping each thread’s identifier to the topmost exception currently active in that thread at the time the function is called.

- bpo-38605: Enable `from __future__ import annotations` (PEP 563) by default. The values found in `__annotations__` dicts are now strings, e.g. `{"x": "int"}` instead of `{"x": int}`.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-35455: On Solaris, `thread_time()` is now implemented with `gethrvtime()` because `clock_gettime(CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID)` is not always available. Patch by Jakub Kulik.

- bpo-42103: `InvalidFileException` and `RecursionError` are now the only errors caused by loading malformed binary Plist file (previously ValueError and TypeError could be raised in some specific cases).

- bpo-41490: In `importlib.resources`, `.path` method is more aggressive about releasing handles to zipfile objects early, enabling use-cases like certifi to leave the context open but delete the underlying zip file.

- bpo-41052: Pickling heap types implemented in C with protocols 0 and 1 raises now an error instead of producing incorrect data.

- bpo-28660: `textwrap.wrap()` now attempts to break long words after hyphens when `break_long_words=True` and `break_on_hyphens=True`.

- bpo-35823: Use `vfork()` instead of `fork()` for `subprocess.Popen()` on Linux to improve performance in cases where it is deemed safe.

- bpo-42043: Add support for `zipfile.Path` inheritance. `zipfile.Path.is_file()` now returns False for non-existent names. `zipfile.Path` objects now expose a `.filename` attribute and rely on that to resolve `.name` and `.parent` when the `Path` object is at the root of the zipfile.

- bpo-42021: Fix possible ref leaks in `sqlite3` module init.

- bpo-39101: Fixed tests using IsolatedAsyncioTestCase from hanging on BaseExceptions.

- bpo-38976: The `http.cookiejar` module now supports the parsing of cookies in CURL-style cookiejar files through MozillaCookieJar on all platforms. Previously, such cookie entries would be silently ignored when loading a cookiejar with such entries.

  Additionally, the HTTP Only attribute is persisted in the object, and will be correctly written to file if the MozillaCookieJar object is subsequently dumped.

### Documentación

- bpo-42061: Document __format__ functionality for IP addresses.

- bpo-41910: Document the default implementation of `object.__eq__`.

- bpo-29778: Ensure `python3.dll` is loaded from correct locations when Python is embedded (CVE-2020-15523).

- bpo-41004: The __hash__() methods of ipaddress.IPv4Interface and ipaddress.IPv6Interface incorrectly generated constant hash values of 32 and 128 respectively. This resulted in always causing hash collisions. The fix uses hash() to generate hash values for the tuple of (address, mask length, network address).

- bpo-39603: Prevent http header injection by rejecting control characters in http.client.putrequest(…).

- bpo-1635741: Port the `zlib` extension module to multi-phase initialization (PEP 489).

- bpo-41631: The `_ast` module uses again a global state. Using a module state per module instance is causing subtle practical problems. For example, the Mercurial project replaces the `__import__()` function to implement lazy import, whereas Python expected that `import _ast` always return a fully initialized `_ast` module.

- bpo-40077: Convert `_operator` to use `PyType_FromSpec()`.

- bpo-1653741: Port `_sha3` to multi-phase init. Convert static types to heap types.

- bpo-40989: The `PyObject_INIT()` and `PyObject_INIT_VAR()` macros become aliases to, respectively, `PyObject_Init()` and `PyObject_InitVar()` functions.

- bpo-36020: On Windows, `#include "pyerrors.h"` no longer defines `snprintf` and `vsnprintf` macros.

- bpo-40943: The `PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN` macro must now be defined to use `PyArg_ParseTuple()` and `Py_BuildValue()` formats which use `#`: `es#`, `et#`, `s#`, `u#`, `y#`, `z#`, `U#` and `Z#`. See Parsing arguments and building values and the PEP 353.

- bpo-40910: Export explicitly the `Py_GetArgcArgv()` function to the C API and document the function. Previously, it was exported implicitly which no longer works since Python is built with `-fvisibility=hidden`.

- bpo-40724: Allow defining buffer slots in type specs.

- bpo-40679: Fix a `_PyEval_EvalCode()` crash if qualname argument is NULL.

- bpo-40839: Calling `PyDict_GetItem()` without GIL held had been allowed for historical reason. It is no longer allowed.

They cannot be used as l-value anymore: use `Py_SET_REFCNT()` and `Py_SET_SIZE()` to set an object reference count and size. This change is backward incompatible on purpose, to prepare the C API for an opaque `PyObject` structure.

- bpo-40703: The PyType_FromSpec*() functions no longer overwrite the type’s «__module__» attribute if it is set via «Py_tp_members» or «Py_tp_getset».

- bpo-39583: Remove superfluous «extern C» declarations from `Include/cpython/*.h`.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-40313: Improve the performance of bytes.hex().

- bpo-40334: Switch to a new parser, based on PEG. For more details see PEP 617. To temporarily switch back to the old parser, use `-X oldparser` or `PYTHONOLDPARSER=1`. In Python 3.10 we will remove the old parser completely, including the `parser` module (already deprecated) and anything that depends on it.

- bpo-40267: Fix the tokenizer to display the correct error message, when there is a SyntaxError on the last input character and no newline follows. It used to be `unexpected EOF while parsing`, while it should be `invalid syntax`.

- bpo-40398: `typing.get_args()` now always returns an empty tuple for special generic aliases.

- bpo-40396: Functions `typing.get_origin()`, `typing.get_args()` and `typing.get_type_hints()` support now generic aliases like `list[int]`.

- bpo-38061: Optimize the `subprocess` module on FreeBSD using `closefrom()`. A single `close(fd)` syscall is cheap, but when `sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX)` is high, the loop calling `close(fd)` on each file descriptor can take several milliseconds.

  The workaround on FreeBSD to improve performance was to load and mount the fdescfs kernel module, but this is not enabled by default.

  Initial patch by Ed Maste (emaste), Conrad Meyer (cem), Kyle Evans (kevans) and Kubilay Kocak (koobs): https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=242274

- bpo-38061: On FreeBSD, `os.closerange(fd_low, fd_high)` now calls `closefrom(fd_low)` if fd_high is greater than or equal to `sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX)`.

  Initial patch by Ed Maste (emaste), Conrad Meyer (cem), Kyle Evans (kevans) and Kubilay Kocak (koobs): https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=242274

- bpo-40138: Fix the Windows implementation of `os.waitpid()` for exit code larger than `INT_MAX >> 8`. The exit status is now interpreted as an unsigned number.

- bpo-39942: Set «__main__» as the default module name when «__name__» is missing in `typing.TypeVar`. Patch by Weipeng Hong.

- bpo-40275: The `logging` package is now imported lazily in `unittest` only when the `assertLogs()` assertion is used.

- bpo-40275: The `asyncio` package is now imported lazily in `unittest` only when the `IsolatedAsyncioTestCase` class is used.

- bpo-40330: In `ShareableList.__setitem__()`, check the size of a new string item after encoding it to utf-8, not before.

- bpo-40148: Added `pathlib.Path.with_stem()` to create a new Path with the stem replaced.

- bpo-40325: Deprecated support for set objects in random.sample().

- bpo-40257: Improved help for the `typing` module. Docstrings are now shown for all special forms and special generic aliases (like `Union` and `List`). Using `help()` with generic alias like `List[int]` will show the help for the correspondent concrete type (`list` in this case).

- bpo-40257: func:`inspect.getdoc` no longer returns docstring inherited from the type of the object or from parent class if it is a class if it is not defined in the object itself. In `pydoc` the documentation string is now shown not only for class, function, method etc, but for any object that has its own `__doc__` attribute.

- bpo-40287: Fixed `SpooledTemporaryFile.seek()` to return the position.

- bpo-40290: Added zscore() to statistics.NormalDist().

- bpo-40282: Allow `random.getrandbits(0)` to succeed and to return 0.

- bpo-40277: `collections.namedtuple()` now provides a human-readable repr for its field accessors.

- bpo-40270: The included copy of sqlite3 on Windows is now compiled with the json extension. This allows the use of functions such as `json_object`.

- bpo-29255: Wait in `KqueueSelector.select` when no fds are registered

- bpo-40260: Ensure `modulefinder` uses `io.open_code()` and respects coding comments.

- bpo-40234: Allow again to spawn daemon threads in subinterpreters (revert change which denied them).

- bpo-39207: Workers in `ProcessPoolExecutor` are now spawned on demand, only when there are no available idle workers to reuse. This optimizes startup overhead and reduces the amount of lost CPU time to idle workers. Patch by Kyle Stanley.

- bpo-40091: Fix a hang at fork in the logging module: the new private _at_fork_reinit() method is now used to reinitialize locks at fork in the child process.

- bpo-40149: Implement traverse and clear slots in _abc._abc_data type.

- bpo-40208: Remove deprecated `symtable.SymbolTable.has_exec()`.

- bpo-36517: Multiple inheritance with `typing.NamedTuple` now raises an error instead of silently ignoring other types.

- bpo-40126: Fixed reverting multiple patches in unittest.mock. Patcher’s `__exit__()` is now never called if its `__enter__()` is failed. Returning true from `__exit__()` silences now the exception.

- bpo-40094: CGIHTTPRequestHandler of http.server now logs the CGI script exit code, rather than the CGI script exit status of os.waitpid(). For example, if the script is killed by signal 11, it now logs: «CGI script exit code -11.»

- bpo-40108: Improve the error message when triying to import a module using `runpy` and incorrently use the «.py» extension at the end of the module name. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-40094: Add `os.waitstatus_to_exitcode()` function: convert a wait status to an exit code.

- bpo-40089: Fix threading._after_fork(): if fork was not called by a thread spawned by threading.Thread, threading._after_fork() now creates a _MainThread instance for _main_thread, instead of a _DummyThread instance.

- bpo-40089: Add a private `_at_fork_reinit()` method to `_thread.Lock`, `_thread.RLock`, `threading.RLock` and `threading.Condition` classes: reinitialize the lock at fork in the child process, reset the lock to the unlocked state. Rename also the private `_reset_internal_locks()` method of `threading.Event` to `_at_fork_reinit()`.

- bpo-25780: Expose `CAN_RAW_JOIN_FILTERS` in the `socket` module.

- bpo-39503: `AbstractBasicAuthHandler` of `urllib.request` now parses all WWW-Authenticate HTTP headers and accepts multiple challenges per header: use the realm of the first Basic challenge.

- bpo-39812: Removed daemon threads from `concurrent.futures` by adding an internal `threading._register_atexit()`, which calls registered functions prior to joining all non-daemon threads. This allows for compatibility with subinterpreters, which don’t support daemon threads.

- bpo-40050: Fix `importlib._bootstrap_external`: avoid creating a new `winreg` builtin module if it’s already available in `sys.modules`, and remove redundant imports.

- bpo-40014: Fix `os.getgrouplist()`: if `getgrouplist()` function fails because the group list is too small, retry with a larger group list. On failure, the glibc implementation of `getgrouplist()` sets `ngroups` to the total number of groups. For other implementations, double the group list size.

- bpo-40017: Add `time.CLOCK_TAI` constant if the operating system support it.

- bpo-40016: In re docstring, clarify the relationship between inline and argument compile flags.

- bpo-39953: Update internal table of OpenSSL error codes in the `ssl` module.

- bpo-36144: Added PEP 584 operators to `weakref.WeakValueDictionary`.

- bpo-36144: Added PEP 584 operators to `weakref.WeakKeyDictionary`.

- bpo-38891: Fix linear runtime behaviour of the `__getitem__` and `__setitem__` methods in `multiprocessing.shared_memory.ShareableList`. This avoids quadratic performance when iterating a `ShareableList`. Patch by Thomas Krennwallner.

- bpo-39682: Remove undocumented support for closing a `pathlib.Path` object via its context manager. The context manager magic methods remain, but they are now a no-op, making `Path` objects immutable.

- bpo-36144: Added PEP 584 operators (`|` and `|=`) to `collections.ChainMap`.

- bpo-39011: Normalization of line endings in ElementTree attributes was removed, as line endings which were replaced by entity numbers should be preserved in original form.

### Mac OS

- bpo-38329: python.org macOS installers now update the Current version symlink of /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions for 3.9 installs. Previously, Current was only updated for Python 2.x installs. This should make it easier to embed Python 3 into other macOS applications.

- bpo-40164: Update macOS installer builds to use OpenSSL 1.1.1g.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-38439: Add a 256×256 pixel IDLE icon to support more modern environments. Created by Andrew Clover. Delete the unused macOS idle.icns icon file.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-40010: Optimize pending calls in multithreaded applications. If a thread different than the main thread schedules a pending call (`Py_AddPendingCall()`), the bytecode evaluation loop is no longer interrupted at each bytecode instruction to check for pending calls which cannot be executed. Only the main thread can execute pending calls.

  Previously, the bytecode evaluation loop was interrupted at each instruction until the main thread executes pending calls.

- bpo-1635741: Port _weakref extension module to multiphase initialization (PEP 489).

- bpo-1635741: Port _collections module to multiphase initialization (PEP 489).

- bpo-40010: Optimize signal handling in multithreaded applications. If a thread different than the main thread gets a signal, the bytecode evaluation loop is no longer interrupted at each bytecode instruction to check for pending signals which cannot be handled. Only the main thread of the main interpreter can handle signals.

  Previously, the bytecode evaluation loop was interrupted at each instruction until the main thread handles signals.

- bpo-39984: If `Py_AddPendingCall()` is called in a subinterpreter, the function is now scheduled to be called from the subinterpreter, rather than being called from the main interpreter. Each subinterpreter now has its own list of scheduled calls.

- bpo-1635741: Port _heapq module to multiphase initialization.

- bpo-1635741: Port itertools module to multiphase initialization (PEP 489).

- bpo-37207: Speed up calls to `frozenset()` by using the PEP 590 `vectorcall` calling convention. Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-39984: subinterpreters: Move `_PyRuntimeState.ceval.tracing_possible` to `PyInterpreterState.ceval.tracing_possible`: each interpreter now has its own variable.

- bpo-37207: Speed up calls to `set()` by using the PEP 590 `vectorcall` calling convention. Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-1635741: Port _statistics module to multiphase initialization (PEP 489).

- bpo-39968: Use inline function to replace extension modules” get_module_state macros.

- bpo-39926: Update Unicode database to Unicode version 13.0.0.

- bpo-19466: Clear the frames of daemon threads earlier during the Python shutdown to call objects destructors. So «unclosed file» resource warnings are now emitted for daemon threads in a more reliable way.

- bpo-38894: Fix a bug that was causing incomplete results when calling `pathlib.Path.glob` in the presence of symlinks that point to files where the user does not have read access. Patch by Pablo Galindo and Matt Wozniski.

- bpo-39877: Fix `PyEval_RestoreThread()` random crash at exit with daemon threads. It now accesses the `_PyRuntime` variable directly instead of using `tstate->interp->runtime`, since `tstate` can be a dangling pointer after `Py_Finalize()` has been called. Moreover, the daemon thread now exits before trying to take the GIL.

- bpo-39871: Fix a possible `SystemError` in `math.{atan2,copysign,remainder}()` when the first argument cannot be converted to a `float`. Patch by Zackery Spytz.

- bpo-39776: Fix race condition where threads created by PyGILState_Ensure() could get a duplicate id.

- bpo-39360: Ensure all workers exit when finalizing a `multiprocessing.Pool` implicitly via the module finalization handlers of multiprocessing. This fixes a deadlock situation that can be experienced when the Pool is not properly finalized via the context manager or a call to `multiprocessing.Pool.terminate`. Patch by Batuhan Taskaya and Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-35370: sys.settrace(), sys.setprofile() and _lsprof.Profiler.enable() now properly report `PySys_Audit()` error if «sys.setprofile» or «sys.settrace» audit event is denied.

- bpo-39936: AIX: Fix _aix_support module when the subprocess is not available, when building Python from scratch. It now uses new private _bootsubprocess module, rather than having two implementations depending if subprocess is available or not. So _aix_support.aix_platform() result is now the same if subprocess is available or not.

- bpo-36144: `collections.OrderedDict` now implements `|` and `|=` (PEP 584).

- bpo-39652: The column name found in `sqlite3.Cursor.description` is now truncated on the first “[” only if the PARSE_COLNAMES option is set.

- bpo-39915: Ensure `unittest.mock.AsyncMock.await_args_list` has call objects in the order of awaited arguments instead of using `unittest.mock.Mock.call_args` which has the last value of the call. Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.

- bpo-36144: Updated `os.environ` and `os.environb` to support PEP 584’s merge (`|`) and update (`|=`) operators.

- bpo-38662: The `ensurepip` module now invokes `pip` via the `runpy` module. Hence it is no longer tightly coupled with the internal API of the bundled `pip` version, allowing easier updates to a newer `pip` version both internally and for distributors.

- bpo-38075: Fix the `random.Random.seed()` method when a `bool` is passed as the seed.

- bpo-39916: More reliable use of `os.scandir()` in `Path.glob()`. It no longer emits a ResourceWarning when interrupted.

- bpo-39850: `multiprocessing` now supports abstract socket addresses (if abstract sockets are supported in the running platform). When creating arbitrary addresses (like when default-constructing `multiprocessing.connection.Listener` objects) abstract sockets are preferred to avoid the case when the temporary-file-generated address is too large for an AF_UNIX socket address. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-36287: `ast.dump()` no longer outputs optional fields and attributes with default values. The default values for optional fields and attributes of AST nodes are now set as class attributes (e.g. `Constant.kind` is set to `None`).

- bpo-39889: Fixed `ast.unparse()` for extended slices containing a single element (e.g. `a[i:j,]`). Remove redundant tuples when index with a tuple (e.g. `a[i, j]`).

- bpo-39828: Fix `json.tool` to catch `BrokenPipeError`. Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-13487: Avoid a possible «RuntimeError: dictionary changed size during iteration» from `inspect.getmodule()` when it tried to loop through `sys.modules`.

- bpo-39674: Revert «bpo-37330: open() no longer accept “U” in file mode». The «U» mode of open() is kept in Python 3.9 to ease transition from Python 2.7, but will be removed in Python 3.10.

- bpo-28577: The hosts method on 32-bit prefix length IPv4Networks and 128-bit prefix IPv6Networks now returns a list containing the single Address instead of an empty list.

- bpo-39826: Add getConnection method to logging HTTPHandler to enable custom connections.

- bpo-39763: Reimplement `distutils.spawn.spawn()` function with the `subprocess` module.

- bpo-39517: Fix runpy.run_path() when using pathlike objects

- bpo-39775: Change `inspect.Signature.parameters` back to `collections.OrderedDict`. This was changed to `dict` in Python 3.9.0a4.

- bpo-39678: Refactor queue_manager in `concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor` to make it easier to maintain.

- bpo-39764: Fix AttributeError when calling get_stack on a PyAsyncGenObject Task

- bpo-39769: The `compileall.compile_dir()` function’s ddir parameter and the compileall command line flag `-d` no longer write the wrong pathname to the generated pyc file for submodules beneath the root of the directory tree being compiled. This fixes a regression introduced with Python 3.5.

- bpo-36144: `types.MappingProxyType` objects now support the merge (`|`) operator from PEP 584.

- bpo-38691: The `importlib` module now ignores the `PYTHONCASEOK` environment variable when the `-E` or `-I` command line options are being used.

- bpo-39719: Remove `tempfile.SpooledTemporaryFile.softspace()` as files no longer have the `softspace` attribute in Python 3. Patch by Shantanu.

In the meantime, `Index(value)` now returns a `value` itself, `ExtSlice(slices)` returns `Tuple(slices, Load())`.

### Documentación

### Construir

- bpo-39761: Fix build with DTrace but without additional DFLAGS.

- bpo-39763: setup.py now uses a basic implementation of the `subprocess` module if the `subprocess` module is not available: before required C extension modules are built.

- bpo-1294959: Add `--with-platlibdir` option to the configure script: name of the platform-specific library directory, stored in the new `sys.platlibdir` attribute. It is used to build the path of platform-specific extension modules and the path of the standard library. It is equal to `"lib"` on most platforms. On Fedora and SuSE, it is equal to `"lib64"` on 64-bit platforms. Patch by Jan Matějek, Matěj Cepl, Charalampos Stratakis and Victor Stinner.

### Ventanas

- bpo-39852: Edit «Go to line» now clears any selection, preventing accidental deletion. It also updates Ln and Col on the status bar.

- bpo-39781: Selecting code context lines no longer causes a jump.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-36184: Port python-gdb.py to FreeBSD. python-gdb.py now checks for «take_gil» function name to check if a frame tries to acquire the GIL, instead of checking for «pthread_cond_timedwait» which is specific to Linux and can be a different condition than the GIL.

- bpo-38080: Added support to fix `getproxies` in the `lib2to3.fixes.fix_urllib` module. Patch by José Roberto Meza Cabrera.

- bpo-39947: Move the static inline function flavor of Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() to the internal C API: they access PyThreadState attributes. The limited C API provides regular functions which hide implementation details.

- bpo-39947: Py_TRASHCAN_BEGIN_CONDITION and Py_TRASHCAN_END macro no longer access PyThreadState attributes, but call new private _PyTrash_begin() and _PyTrash_end() functions which hide implementation details.

- bpo-39877: Deprecated `PyEval_InitThreads()` and `PyEval_ThreadsInitialized()`. Calling `PyEval_InitThreads()` now does nothing.

- bpo-38249: `Py_UNREACHABLE` is now implemented with `__builtin_unreachable()` and analogs in release mode.

- bpo-38643: `PyNumber_ToBase()` now raises a `SystemError` instead of crashing when called with invalid base.

- bpo-39882: The `Py_FatalError()` function is replaced with a macro which logs automatically the name of the current function, unless the `Py_LIMITED_API` macro is defined.

- bpo-39824: Extension modules: `m_traverse`, `m_clear` and `m_free` functions of `PyModuleDef` are no longer called if the module state was requested but is not allocated yet. This is the case immediately after the module is created and before the module is executed (`Py_mod_exec` function). More precisely, these functions are not called if `m_size` is greater than 0 and the module state (as returned by `PyModule_GetState()`) is `NULL`.

  Extension modules without module state (`m_size <= 0`) are not affected.

- bpo-38913: Fixed segfault in `Py_BuildValue()` called with a format containing «#» and undefined PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN whwn an exception is set.

- bpo-38500: Add a private API to get and set the frame evaluation function: add `_PyInterpreterState_GetEvalFrameFunc()` and `_PyInterpreterState_SetEvalFrameFunc()` C functions. The `_PyFrameEvalFunction` function type now takes a tstate parameter.

- bpo-39542: In the limited C API, `PyObject_INIT()` and `PyObject_INIT_VAR()` are now defined as aliases to `PyObject_Init()` and `PyObject_InitVar()` to make their implementation opaque. It avoids to leak implementation details in the limited C API. Exclude the following functions from the limited C API: `_Py_NewReference()`, `_Py_ForgetReference()`, `_PyTraceMalloc_NewReference()` and `_Py_GetRefTotal()`.

- bpo-39542: Exclude trashcan mechanism from the limited C API: it requires access to PyTypeObject and PyThreadState structure fields, whereas these structures are opaque in the limited C API.

- bpo-39239: The `select.epoll.unregister()` method no longer ignores the `EBADF` error.

- bpo-38907: In http.server script, restore binding to IPv4 on Windows.

- bpo-39152: Fix ttk.Scale.configure([name]) to return configuration tuple for name or all options. Giovanni Lombardo contributed part of the patch.

- bpo-39198: If an exception were to be thrown in `Logger.isEnabledFor` (say, by asyncio timeouts or stopit) , the `logging` global lock may not be released appropriately, resulting in deadlock. This change wraps that block of code with `try...finally` to ensure the lock is released.

- bpo-39191: Perform a check for running loop before starting a new task in `loop.run_until_complete()` to fail fast; it prevents the side effect of new task spawning before exception raising.

- bpo-38871: Correctly parenthesize filter-based statements that contain lambda expressions in mod:`lib2to3`. Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-39142: A change was made to logging.config.dictConfig to avoid converting instances of named tuples to ConvertingTuple. It’s assumed that named tuples are too specialised to be treated like ordinary tuples; if a user of named tuples requires ConvertingTuple functionality, they will have to implement that themselves in their named tuple class.

- bpo-39158: ast.literal_eval() now supports empty sets.

- bpo-39129: Fix import path for `asyncio.TimeoutError`

- bpo-39057: `urllib.request.proxy_bypass_environment()` now ignores leading dots and no longer ignores a trailing newline.

- bpo-39056: Fixed handling invalid warning category in the -W option. No longer import the re module if it is not needed.

- bpo-39055: `base64.b64decode()` with `validate=True` raises now a binascii.Error if the input ends with a single `\n`.

- bpo-21600: Fix `mock.patch.stopall()` to stop active patches that were created with `mock.patch.dict()`.

- bpo-39019: Implement dummy `__class_getitem__` for `tempfile.SpooledTemporaryFile`.

- bpo-39019: Implement dummy `__class_getitem__` for `subprocess.Popen`, `subprocess.CompletedProcess`

- bpo-38914: Adjusted the wording of the warning issued by distutils” `check` command when the `author` and `maintainer` fields are supplied but no corresponding e-mail field (`author_email` or `maintainer_email`) is found. The wording now reflects the fact that these fields are suggested, but not required. Patch by Juergen Gmach.

- bpo-38878: Fixed __subclasshook__ of `os.PathLike` to return a correct result upon inheritance. Patch by Bar Harel.

- bpo-38615: `IMAP4` and `IMAP4_SSL` now have an optional timeout parameter for their constructors. Also, the `open()` method now has an optional timeout parameter with this change. The overridden methods of `IMAP4_SSL` and `IMAP4_stream` were applied to this change. Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-35182: Fixed `Popen.communicate()` subsequent call crash when the child process has already closed any piped standard stream, but still continues to be running. Patch by Andriy Maletsky.

- bpo-38630: On Unix, `subprocess.Popen.send_signal()` now polls the process status. Polling reduces the risk of sending a signal to the wrong process if the process completed, the `subprocess.Popen.returncode` attribute is still `None`, and the pid has been reassigned (recycled) to a new different process.

- bpo-38536: Removes trailing space in formatted currency with `international=True` and a locale with symbol following value. E.g. `locale.currency(12.34, international=True)` returned `'12,34 EUR '` instead of `'12,34 EUR'`.

- bpo-38473: Use signature from inner mock for autospecced methods attached with `unittest.mock.attach_mock()`. Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.

- bpo-38361: Fixed an issue where `ident` could include a leading path separator when `syslog.openlog()` was called without arguments.

- bpo-38293: Add `copy.copy()` and `copy.deepcopy()` support to `property()` objects.

- bpo-37958: Added the pstats.Stats.get_profile_dict() method to return the profile data as a StatsProfile instance.

- bpo-28367: Termios magic constants for the following baud rates: - B500000 - B576000 - B921600 - B1000000 - B1152000 - B1500000 - B2000000 - B2500000 - B3000000 - B3500000 - B4000000 Patch by Andrey Smirnov

### Documentación

- bpo-39381: Mention in docs that `asyncio.get_event_loop()` implicitly creates new event loop only if called from the main thread.

- bpo-38918: Add an entry for `__module__` in the «function» & «method» sections of the inspect docs types and members table

- bpo-3530: In the `ast` module documentation, fix a misleading `NodeTransformer` example and add advice on when to use the `fix_missing_locations` function.

- bpo-39160: Updated the documentation in `/configure --help` to show default values, reference documentation where required and add additional explanation where needed.

- bpo-39144: The ctags and etags build targets both include Modules/_ctypes and Python standard library source files.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-39050: Make IDLE Settings dialog Help button work again.

- bpo-34118: Tag memoryview, range, and tuple as classes, the same as list, etcetera, in the library manual built-in functions list.

- bpo-32989: Add tests for editor newline_and_indent_event method. Remove dead code from pyparse find_good_parse_start method.

### API C

- bpo-39372: Clean header files of interfaces defined but with no implementation. The public API symbols being removed are: `_PyBytes_InsertThousandsGroupingLocale`, `_PyBytes_InsertThousandsGrouping`, `_Py_InitializeFromArgs`, `_Py_InitializeFromWideArgs`, `_PyFloat_Repr`, `_PyFloat_Digits`, `_PyFloat_DigitsInit`, `PyFrame_ExtendStack`, `_PyAIterWrapper_Type`, `PyNullImporter_Type`, `PyCmpWrapper_Type`, `PySortWrapper_Type`, `PyNoArgsFunction`.

- bpo-39164: Add a private `_PyErr_GetExcInfo()` function to retrieve exception information of the specified Python thread state.

## Python 3.9.0 alpha 2

Release date: 2019-12-18

### Seguridad

- bpo-38945: Newline characters have been escaped when performing uu encoding to prevent them from overflowing into to content section of the encoded file. This prevents malicious or accidental modification of data during the decoding process.

- bpo-37228: Due to significant security concerns, the reuse_address parameter of `asyncio.loop.create_datagram_endpoint()` is no longer supported. This is because of the behavior of `SO_REUSEADDR` in UDP. For more details, see the documentation for `loop.create_datagram_endpoint()`. (Contributed by Kyle Stanley, Antoine Pitrou, and Yury Selivanov in bpo-37228.)

- bpo-38804: Fixes a ReDoS vulnerability in `http.cookiejar`. Patch by Ben Caller.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-39028: Slightly improve the speed of keyword argument parsing with many kwargs by strengthening the assumption that kwargs are interned strings.

- bpo-39080: Fix the value of end_col_offset for Starred Expression AST nodes when they are among the elements in the args attribute of Call AST nodes.

- bpo-39031: When parsing an «elif» node, lineno and col_offset of the node now point to the «elif» keyword and not to its condition, making it consistent with the «if» node. Patch by Lysandros Nikolaou.

- bpo-20443: In Python 3.9.0a1, sys.argv[0] was made an absolute path if a filename was specified on the command line. Revert this change, since most users expect sys.argv to be unmodified.

- bpo-39008: `PySys_Audit()` now requires `Py_ssize_t` to be used for size arguments in the format string, regardless of whether `PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN` was defined at include time.

- bpo-38673: In REPL mode, don’t switch to PS2 if the line starts with comment or whitespace. Based on work by Batuhan Taşkaya.

- bpo-38922: Calling `replace` on a code object now raises the `code.__new__` audit event.

- bpo-38920: Add audit hooks for when `sys.excepthook()` and `sys.unraisablehook()` are invoked.

- bpo-38892: Improve documentation for audit events table and functions.

- bpo-38852: Set the thread stack size to 8 Mb for debug builds on android platforms.

- bpo-38858: Each Python subinterpreter now has its own «small integer singletons»: numbers in [-5; 257] range. It is no longer possible to change the number of small integers at build time by overriding `NSMALLNEGINTS` and `NSMALLPOSINTS` macros: macros should now be modified manually in `pycore_pystate.h` header file.

- bpo-36854: The garbage collector state becomes per interpreter (`PyInterpreterState.gc`), rather than being global (`_PyRuntimeState.gc`).

- bpo-38835: The `PyFPE_START_PROTECT()` and `PyFPE_END_PROTECT()` macros are empty: they have been doing nothing for the last year, so stop using them.

- bpo-38328: Sped up the creation time of constant `list` and `set` displays. Patch by Brandt Bucher.

- bpo-38707: `MainThread.native_id` is now correctly reset in child processes spawned using `multiprocessing.Process`, instead of retaining the parent’s value.

- bpo-38629: Added `__floor__` and `__ceil__` methods to float object. Patch by Batuhan Taşkaya.

- bpo-27145: int + int and int - int operators can now return small integer singletons. Patch by hongweipeng.

- bpo-38021: Provide a platform tag for AIX that is sufficient for PEP425 binary distribution identification. Patch by Michael Felt.

- bpo-35409: Ignore GeneratorExit exceptions when throwing an exception into the aclose coroutine of an asynchronous generator.

- bpo-33387: Removed WITH_CLEANUP_START, WITH_CLEANUP_FINISH, BEGIN_FINALLY, END_FINALLY, CALL_FINALLY and POP_FINALLY bytecodes. Replaced with RERAISE and WITH_EXCEPT_START bytecodes. The compiler now generates different code for exceptional and non-exceptional branches for “with” and “try-except” statements. For “try-finally” statements the “finally” block is replicated for each exit from the “try” body.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-39033: Fix `NameError` in `zipimport`. Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.

- bpo-39022: Update importlib.metadata to include improvements from importlib_metadata 1.3 including better serialization of EntryPoints and improved documentation for custom finders.

- bpo-39006: Fix asyncio when the ssl module is missing: only check for ssl.SSLSocket instance if the ssl module is available.

- bpo-38708: Fix a potential IndexError in email parser when parsing an empty msg-id.

- bpo-38698: Add a new `InvalidMessageID` token to email parser to represent invalid Message-ID headers. Also, add defects when there is remaining value after parsing the header.

- bpo-38994: Implement `__class_getitem__` for `os.PathLike`, `pathlib.Path`.

- bpo-38979: Return class from `ContextVar.__class_getitem__` to simplify subclassing.

- bpo-38978: Implement `__class_getitem__` on asyncio objects (Future, Task, Queue). Patch by Batuhan Taskaya.

- bpo-38916: `array.array`: Remove `tostring()` and `fromstring()` methods. They were aliases to `tobytes()` and `frombytes()`, deprecated since Python 3.2.

- bpo-38986: Make repr of C accelerated TaskWakeupMethWrapper the same as of pure Python version.

- bpo-38982: Fix asyncio `PidfdChildWatcher`: handle `waitpid()` error. If `waitpid()` is called elsewhere, `waitpid()` call fails with `ChildProcessError`: use return code 255 in this case, and log a warning. It ensures that the pidfd file descriptor is closed if this error occurs.

- bpo-38529: Drop too noisy asyncio warning about deletion of a stream without explicit `.close()` call.

- bpo-27413: Added ability to pass through `ensure_ascii` options to json.dumps in the `json.tool` command-line interface.

- bpo-38634: The `readline` module now detects if Python is linked to libedit at runtime on all platforms. Previously, the check was only done on macOS.

- bpo-33684: Fix `json.tool` failed to read a JSON file with non-ASCII characters when locale encoding is not UTF-8.

- bpo-38698: Prevent UnboundLocalError to pop up in parse_message_id.

  parse_message_id () estaba usando incorrectamente un token definido dentro de un controlador de excepciones, que estaba generando `UnboundLocalError` al analizar un valor no válido. Parche de Claudiu Popa.

- bpo-38927: Use `python -m pip` instead of `pip` to upgrade dependencies in venv.

- bpo-26730: Fix `SpooledTemporaryFile.rollover()` might corrupt the file when it is in text mode. Patch by Serhiy Storchaka.

- bpo-38881: random.choices() now raises a ValueError when all the weights are zero.

- bpo-38876: Raise pickle.UnpicklingError when loading an item from memo for invalid input.

  The previous code was raising a `KeyError` for both the Python and C implementation. This was caused by the specified index of an invalid input which did not exist in the memo structure, where the pickle stores what objects it has seen. The malformed input would have caused either a `BINGET` or `LONG_BINGET` load from the memo, leading to a `KeyError` as the determined index was bogus. Patch by Claudiu Popa

- bpo-38688: Calling func:`shutil.copytree` to copy a directory tree from one directory to another subdirectory resulted in an endless loop and a RecursionError. A fix was added to consume an iterator and create the list of the entries to be copied, avoiding the recursion for newly created directories. Patch by Bruno P. Kinoshita.

- bpo-38863: Improve `is_cgi()` function in `http.server`, which enables processing the case that cgi directory is a child of another directory other than root.

- bpo-37838: `typing.get_type_hints()` properly handles functions decorated with `functools.wraps()`.

- bpo-38870: Expose `ast.unparse()` as a function of the `ast` module that can be used to unparse an `ast.AST` object and produce a string with code that would produce an equivalent `ast.AST` object when parsed. Patch by Pablo Galindo and Batuhan Taskaya.

- bpo-38859: AsyncMock now returns StopAsyncIteration on the exhaustion of a side_effects iterable. Since PEP-479 its Impossible to raise a StopIteration exception from a coroutine.

- bpo-38857: AsyncMock fix for return values that are awaitable types. This also covers side_effect iterable values that happened to be awaitable, and wraps callables that return an awaitable type. Before these awaitables were being awaited instead of being returned as is.

- bpo-38834: `typing.TypedDict` subclasses now track which keys are optional using the `__required_keys__` and `__optional_keys__` attributes, to enable runtime validation by downstream projects. Patch by Zac Hatfield-Dodds.

- bpo-38821: Fix unhandled exceptions in `argparse` when internationalizing error messages for arguments with `nargs` set to special (non-integer) values. Patch by Federico Bond.

- bpo-38820: Make Python compatible with OpenSSL 3.0.0. `ssl.SSLSocket.getpeercert()` no longer returns IPv6 addresses with a trailing new line.

- bpo-38811: Fix an unhandled exception in `pathlib` when `os.link()` is missing. Patch by Toke Høiland-Jørgensen.

- bpo-38686: Added support for multiple `qop` values in `urllib.request.AbstractDigestAuthHandler`.

- bpo-38712: Add the Linux-specific `signal.pidfd_send_signal()` function, which allows sending a signal to a process identified by a file descriptor rather than a pid.

- bpo-38348: Add `-i` and `--indent` (indentation level), and `--no-type-comments` (type comments) command line options to ast parsing tool.

- bpo-37523: Change `zipfile.ZipExtFile` to raise `ValueError` when trying to access the underlying file object after it has been closed. This new behavior is consistent with how accessing closed files is handled in other parts of Python.

- bpo-38045: Improve the performance of `enum._decompose()` in `enum`. Patch by hongweipeng.

- bpo-36820: Break cycle generated when saving an exception in socket.py, codeop.py and dyld.py as they keep alive not only the exception but user objects through the `__traceback__` attribute. Patch by Mario Corchero.

- bpo-36406: Handle namespace packages in `doctest`. Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.

- bpo-34776: Fix dataclasses to support forward references in type annotations

- bpo-20928: ElementTree supports recursive XInclude processing. Patch by Stefan Behnel.

- bpo-29636: Add whitespace options for formatting JSON with the `json.tool` CLI. The following mutually exclusive options are now supported: `--indent` for setting the indent level in spaces; `--tab` for indenting with tabs; `--no-indent` for suppressing newlines; and `--compact` for suppressing all whitespace. The default behavior remains the same as `--indent=4`.

### Documentación

- bpo-38928: Correct when venv’s `upgrade_dependencies()` and `--upgrade-deps` are added.

- bpo-38899: Update documentation to state that to activate virtual environments under fish one should use `source`, not `` as documented at https://fishshell.com/docs/current/commands.html#source.

- bpo-22377: Improves documentation of the values that `datetime.datetime.strptime()` accepts for `%Z`. Patch by Karl Dubost.

### Pruebas

- bpo-38546: Fix test_ressources_gced_in_workers() of test_concurrent_futures: explicitly stop the manager to prevent leaking a child process running in the background after the test completes.

- bpo-38546: Multiprocessing and concurrent.futures tests now stop the resource tracker process when tests complete.

- bpo-38614: Replace hardcoded timeout constants in tests with new `test.support` constants: `LOOPBACK_TIMEOUT`, `INTERNET_TIMEOUT`, `SHORT_TIMEOUT` and `LONG_TIMEOUT`. It becomes easier to adjust these four timeout constants for all tests at once, rather than having to adjust every single test file.

- bpo-38547: Fix test_pty: if the process is the session leader, closing the master file descriptor raises a SIGHUP signal: simply ignore SIGHUP when running the tests.

- bpo-38992: Fix a test for `math.fsum()` that was failing due to constant folding.

- bpo-38991: `test.support`: `run_python_until_end()`, `assert_python_ok()` and `assert_python_failure()` functions no longer strip whitespaces from stderr. Remove `test.support.strip_python_stderr()` function.

- bpo-38965: Fix test_faulthandler on GCC 10. Use the «volatile» keyword in `faulthandler._stack_overflow()` to prevent tail call optimization on any compiler, rather than relying on compiler specific pragma.

- bpo-38875: test_capi: trashcan tests now require the test «cpu» resource.

- bpo-38841: Skip asyncio test_create_datagram_endpoint_existing_sock_unix on platforms lacking a functional bind() for named unix domain sockets.

- bpo-38692: Skip the test_posix.test_pidfd_open() test if `os.pidfd_open()` fails with a `PermissionError`. This situation can happen in a Linux sandbox using a syscall whitelist which doesn’t allow the `pidfd_open()` syscall yet.

- bpo-38839: Fix some unused functions in tests. Patch by Adam Johnson.

- bpo-38669: Raise `TypeError` when passing target as a string with `unittest.mock.patch.object()`.

- bpo-37957: test.regrtest now can receive a list of test patterns to ignore (using the -i/–ignore argument) or a file with a list of patterns to ignore (using the –ignore-file argument). Patch by Pablo Galindo.

### Construir

- bpo-37404: `asyncio` now raises `TyperError` when calling incompatible methods with an `ssl.SSLSocket` socket. Patch by Ido Michael.

- bpo-33125: Add support for building and releasing Windows ARM64 packages.

### Mac OS

- bpo-37931: Fixed a crash on OSX dynamic builds that occurred when re-initializing the posix module after a Py_Finalize if the environment had changed since the previous `import posix`. Patch by Benoît Hudson.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-38944: Escape key now closes IDLE completion windows. Patch by Johnny Najera.

- bpo-38943: Fix IDLE autocomplete windows not always appearing on some systems. Patch by Johnny Najera.

- bpo-38862: “Strip Trailing Whitespace” on the Format menu removes extra newlines at the end of non-shell files.

- bpo-38636: Fix IDLE Format menu tab toggle and file indent width. These functions (default shortcuts Alt-T and Alt-U) were mistakenly disabled in 3.7.5 and 3.8.0.

### API C

- bpo-38896: Remove `PyUnicode_ClearFreeList()` function: the Unicode free list has been removed in Python 3.3.

- bpo-37340: Remove `PyMethod_ClearFreeList()` and `PyCFunction_ClearFreeList()` functions: the free lists of bound method objects have been removed.

- bpo-38835: Exclude `PyFPE_START_PROTECT()` and `PyFPE_END_PROTECT()` macros of `pyfpe.h` from `Py_LIMITED_API` (stable API).

## Python 3.9.0 alpha 1

- bpo-38622: Add additional audit events for the `ctypes` module.

- bpo-38418: Fixes audit event for `os.system()` to be named `os.system`.

- bpo-38243: Escape the server title of `xmlrpc.server.DocXMLRPCServer` when rendering the document page as HTML. (Contributed by Dong-hee Na in bpo-38243.)

- bpo-38174: Update vendorized expat library version to 2.2.8, which resolves CVE-2019-15903.

- bpo-37764: Fixes email._header_value_parser.get_unstructured going into an infinite loop for a specific case in which the email header does not have trailing whitespace, and the case in which it contains an invalid encoded word. Patch by Ashwin Ramaswami.

- bpo-37461: Fix an infinite loop when parsing specially crafted email headers. Patch by Abhilash Raj.

- bpo-37363: Adds audit events for the range of supported run commands (see Línea de comandos y entorno).

- bpo-37463: ssl.match_hostname() no longer accepts IPv4 addresses with additional text after the address and only quad-dotted notation without trailing whitespaces. Some inet_aton() implementations ignore whitespace and all data after whitespace, e.g. “127.0.0.1 whatever”.

- bpo-37363: Adds audit events for `ensurepip`, `ftplib`, `glob`, `imaplib`, `nntplib`, `pdb`, `poplib`, `shutil`, `smtplib`, `sqlite3`, `subprocess`, `telnetlib`, `tempfile` and `webbrowser`, as well as `os.listdir()`, `os.scandir()` and `breakpoint()`.

- bpo-37364: `io.open_code()` is now used when reading `.pth` files.

- bpo-34631: Updated OpenSSL to 1.1.1c in Windows installer

- bpo-34155: Fix parsing of invalid email addresses with more than one `@` (e.g. a@b@c.com.) to not return the part before 2nd `@` as valid email address. Patch by maxking & jpic.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-38631: Replace `Py_FatalError()` call with a regular `RuntimeError` exception in `float.__getformat__()`.

- bpo-38639: Optimized `math.floor()`, `math.ceil()` and `math.trunc()` for floats.

- bpo-38640: Fixed a bug in the compiler that was causing to raise in the presence of break statements and continue statements inside always false while loops. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-38613: Optimized some set operations (e.g. `|`, `^`, and `-`) of `dict_keys`. `d.keys() | other` was slower than `set(d) | other` but they are almost same performance for now.

- bpo-28029: `"".replace("", s, n)` now returns `s` instead of an empty string for all non-zero `n`. There are similar changes for `bytes` and `bytearray` objects.

- bpo-38535: Fixed line numbers and column offsets for AST nodes for calls without arguments in decorators.

- bpo-38525: Fix a segmentation fault when using reverse iterators of empty `dict` objects. Patch by Dong-hee Na and Inada Naoki.

- bpo-38465: `bytearray`, `array` and `mmap` objects allow now to export more than `2**31` buffers at a time.

- bpo-38469: Fixed a bug where the scope of named expressions was not being resolved correctly in the presence of the global keyword. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-38437: Activate the `GC_DEBUG` macro for debug builds of the interpreter (when `Py_DEBUG` is set). Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-38379: When the garbage collector makes a collection in which some objects resurrect (they are reachable from outside the isolated cycles after the finalizers have been executed), do not block the collection of all objects that are still unreachable. Patch by Pablo Galindo and Tim Peters.

- bpo-38379: When cyclic garbage collection (gc) runs finalizers that resurrect unreachable objects, the current gc run ends, without collecting any cyclic trash. However, the statistics reported by `collect()` and `get_stats()` claimed that all cyclic trash found was collected, and that the resurrected objects were collected. Changed the stats to report that none were collected.

- bpo-38392: 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.

- bpo-38210: Remove unnecessary intersection and update set operation in dictview with empty set. (Contributed by Dong-hee Na in bpo-38210.)

- bpo-38402: Check the error from the system’s underlying `crypt` or `crypt_r`.

- bpo-37474: 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.

- bpo-38006: 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-38317: Fix warnings options priority: `PyConfig.warnoptions` has the highest priority, as stated in the PEP 587.

- bpo-38310: Predict `BUILD_MAP_UNPACK_WITH_CALL` -> `CALL_FUNCTION_EX` opcode pairs in the main interpreter loop. Patch by Brandt Bucher.

- bpo-36871: Improve error handling for the assert_has_calls and assert_has_awaits methods of mocks. Fixed a bug where any errors encountered while binding the expected calls to the mock’s spec were silently swallowed, leading to misleading error output.

- bpo-11410: Better control over symbol visibility is provided through use of the visibility attributes available in gcc >= 4.0, provided in a uniform way across POSIX and Windows. The POSIX build files have been updated to compile with -fvisibility=hidden, minimising exported symbols.

- bpo-38219: Optimized the `dict` constructor and the `update()` method for the case when the argument is a dict.

- bpo-38236: Python now dumps path configuration if it fails to import the Python codecs of the filesystem and stdio encodings.

- bpo-38013: Allow to call `async_generator_athrow().throw(...)` even for non-started async generator helper. It fixes annoying warning at the end of `asyncio.run()` call.

- bpo-38124: Fix an off-by-one error in PyState_AddModule that could cause out-of-bounds memory access.

- bpo-38116: The select module is now PEP-384 compliant and no longer has static state

- bpo-38113: ast module updated to PEP-384 and all statics removed

- bpo-38076: The struct module is now PEP-384 compatible

- bpo-38075: The random module is now PEP-384 compatible

- bpo-38074: zlib module made PEP-384 compatible

- bpo-38073: Make pwd extension module PEP-384 compatible

- bpo-37751: Fix `codecs.lookup()` to normalize the encoding name the same way than `encodings.normalize_encoding()`, except that `codecs.lookup()` also converts the name to lower case.

- bpo-37830: Fixed compilation of `break` and `continue` in the `finally` block when the corresponding `try` block contains `return` with a non-constant value.

- bpo-20490: Improve import error message for partially initialized module on circular `from` imports - by Anthony Sottile.

- bpo-37409: Ensure explicit relative imports from interactive sessions and scripts (having no parent package) always raise ImportError, rather than treating the current module as the package. Patch by Ben Lewis.

- bpo-32912: Reverted bpo-32912: emitting `SyntaxWarning` instead of `DeprecationWarning` for invalid escape sequences in string and bytes literals.

- bpo-37757: PEP 572: As described in the PEP, assignment expressions now raise `SyntaxError` when their interaction with comprehension scoping results in an ambiguous target scope.

  La subclase `TargetScopeError` propuesta originalmente por el PEP ha sido eliminada en favor de simplemente generar errores de sintaxis regulares para los casos no permitidos.

- bpo-36279: Fix potential use of uninitialized memory in `os.wait3()`.

- bpo-36311: Decoding bytes objects larger than 2GiB is faster and no longer fails when a multibyte characters spans a chunk boundary.

- bpo-34880: The `assert` statement now works properly if the `AssertionError` exception is being shadowed. Patch by Zackery Spytz.

- bpo-37340: Removed object cache (`free_list`) for bound method objects. Temporary bound method objects are less used than before thanks to the `LOAD_METHOD` opcode and the `_PyObject_VectorcallMethod` C API.

- bpo-37648: Fixed minor inconsistency in `list.__contains__()`, `tuple.__contains__()` and a few other places. The collection’s item is now always at the left and the needle is on the right of `==`.

- bpo-37444: Update differing exception between `builtins.__import__()` and `importlib.__import__()`.

- bpo-37619: When adding a wrapper descriptor from one class to a different class (for example, setting `__add__ = str.__add__` on an `int` subclass), an exception is correctly raised when the operator is called.

- bpo-37417: `bytearray.extend()` now correctly handles errors that arise during iteration. Patch by Brandt Bucher.

- bpo-37414: The undocumented `sys.callstats()` function has been removed. Since Python 3.7, it was deprecated and always returned `None`. It required a special build option `CALL_PROFILE` which was already removed in Python 3.7.

- bpo-37392: Remove `sys.getcheckinterval()` and `sys.setcheckinterval()` functions. They were deprecated since Python 3.2. Use `sys.getswitchinterval()` and `sys.setswitchinterval()` instead. Remove also `check_interval` field of the `PyInterpreterState` structure.

- bpo-37388: In development mode and in debug build, encoding and errors arguments are now checked on string encoding and decoding operations. Examples: `open()`, `str.encode()` and `bytes.decode()`.

  By default, for best performances, the errors argument is only checked at the first encoding/decoding error, and the encoding argument is sometimes ignored for empty strings.

- bpo-37348: Optimized decoding short ASCII string with UTF-8 and ascii codecs. `b"foo".decode()` is about 15% faster. Patch by Inada Naoki.

- bpo-24214: Improved support of the surrogatepass error handler in the UTF-8 and UTF-16 incremental decoders.

- bpo-37300: Remove an unnecessary Py_XINCREF in classobject.c.

- bpo-37269: Fix a bug in the peephole optimizer that was not treating correctly constant conditions with binary operators. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-20443: Python now gets the absolute path of the script filename specified on the command line (ex: «python3 script.py»): the __file__ attribute of the __main__ module and sys.path[0] become an absolute path, rather than a relative path.

- bpo-37257: Python’s small object allocator (`obmalloc.c`) now allows (no more than) one empty arena to remain available for immediate reuse, without returning it to the OS. This prevents thrashing in simple loops where an arena could be created and destroyed anew on each iteration.

- bpo-37231: The dispatching of type slots to special methods (for example calling `__mul__` when doing `x * y`) has been made faster.

- bpo-36974: Implemented separate vectorcall functions for every calling convention of builtin functions and methods. This improves performance for calls.

- bpo-38242: Revert the new asyncio Streams API

- bpo-13153: OS native encoding is now used for converting between Python strings and Tcl objects. This allows to display, copy and paste to clipboard emoji and other non-BMP characters. Converting strings from Tcl to Python and back now never fails (except MemoryError).

- bpo-38019: Correctly handle pause/resume reading of closed asyncio unix pipe.

- bpo-38163: Child mocks will now detect their type as either synchronous or asynchronous, asynchronous child mocks will be AsyncMocks and synchronous child mocks will be either MagicMock or Mock (depending on their parent type).

When a ctypes.Structure is passed by copy to a function, ctypes internals created a temporary object which had the side effect of calling the structure finalizer (__del__) twice. The Python semantics requires a finalizer to be called exactly once. Fix ctypes internals to no longer call the finalizer twice.

- bpo-37587: `_json.scanstring` is now up to 3x faster when there are many backslash escaped characters in the JSON string.

- bpo-37863: Optimizations for Fraction.__hash__ suggested by Tim Peters.

- bpo-21131: Fix `faulthandler.register(chain=True)` stack. faulthandler now allocates a dedicated stack of `SIGSTKSZ*2` bytes, instead of just `SIGSTKSZ` bytes. Calling the previous signal handler in faulthandler signal handler uses more than `SIGSTKSZ` bytes of stack memory on some platforms.

- bpo-16970: Adding a value error when an invalid value in passed to nargs Patch by Robert Leenders

- bpo-34443: Exceptions from `enum` now use the `__qualname` of the enum class in the exception message instead of the `__name__`.

- bpo-37520: Correct behavior for zipfile.Path.parent when the path object identifies a subdirectory.

- bpo-18374: Fix the `.col_offset` attribute of nested `ast.BinOp` instances which had a too large value in some situations.

- bpo-37424: Fixes a possible hang when using a timeout on `subprocess.run()` while capturing output. If the child process spawned its own children or otherwise connected its stdout or stderr handles with another process, we could hang after the timeout was reached and our child was killed when attempting to read final output from the pipes.

- bpo-37421: Fix `multiprocessing.util.get_temp_dir()` finalizer: clear also the “tempdir” configuration of the current process, so next call to `get_temp_dir()` will create a new temporary directory, rather than reusing the removed temporary directory.

- bpo-37481: The distutils `bdist_wininst` command is deprecated in Python 3.8, use `bdist_wheel` (wheel packages) instead.

- bpo-37479: When `Enum.__str__` is overridden in a derived class, the override will be used by `Enum.__format__` regardless of whether mixin classes are present.

- bpo-37440: http.client now enables TLS 1.3 post-handshake authentication for default context or if a cert_file is passed to HTTPSConnection.

- bpo-37437: Update vendorized expat version to 2.2.7.

- bpo-37428: SSLContext.post_handshake_auth = True no longer sets SSL_VERIFY_POST_HANDSHAKE verify flag for client connections. Although the option is documented as ignored for clients, OpenSSL implicitly enables cert chain validation when the flag is set.

- bpo-37420: `os.sched_setaffinity()` now correctly handles errors that arise during iteration over its `mask` argument. Patch by Brandt Bucher.

- bpo-37412: The `os.getcwdb()` function now uses the UTF-8 encoding on Windows, rather than the ANSI code page: see PEP 529 for the rationale. The function is no longer deprecated on Windows.

- bpo-37406: The sqlite3 module now raises TypeError, rather than ValueError, if operation argument type is not str: execute(), executemany() and calling a connection.

- bpo-29412: Fix IndexError in parsing a header value ending unexpectedly. Patch by Abhilash Raj.

- bpo-36546: The dist argument for statistics.quantiles() is now positional only. The current name doesn’t reflect that the argument can be either a dataset or a distribution. Marking the parameter as positional avoids confusion and makes it possible to change the name later.

- bpo-37394: Fix a bug that was causing the `queue` module to fail if the accelerator module was not available. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-37376: `pprint` now has support for `types.SimpleNamespace`. Patch by Carl Bordum Hansen.

- bpo-26967: An `ArgumentParser` with `allow_abbrev=False` no longer disables grouping of short flags, such as `-vv`, but only disables abbreviation of long flags as documented. Patch by Zac Hatfield-Dodds.

- bpo-37212: `unittest.mock.call()` now preserves the order of keyword arguments in repr output. Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.

- bpo-37372: Fix error unpickling datetime.time objects from Python 2 with seconds>=24. Patch by Justin Blanchard.

- bpo-37345: Add formal support for UDPLITE sockets. Support was present before, but it is now easier to detect support with `hasattr(socket, 'IPPROTO_UDPLITE')` and there are constants defined for each of the values needed: `socket.IPPROTO_UDPLITE`, `UDPLITE_SEND_CSCOV`, and `UDPLITE_RECV_CSCOV`. Patch by Gabe Appleton.

- bpo-37358: Optimized `functools.partial` by using vectorcall.

- bpo-37347: `sqlite3.Connection.create_aggregate()`, `sqlite3.Connection.create_function()`, `sqlite3.Connection.set_authorizer()`, `sqlite3.Connection.set_progress_handler()` `sqlite3.Connection.set_trace_callback()` methods lead to segfaults if some of these methods are called twice with an equal object but not the same. Now callbacks are stored more carefully. Patch by Aleksandr Balezin.

- bpo-37163: The obj argument of `dataclasses.replace()` is positional-only now.

- bpo-37085: Add the optional Linux SocketCAN Broadcast Manager constants, used as flags to configure the BCM behaviour, in the socket module. Patch by Karl Ding.

- bpo-37328: `HTMLParser.unescape` is removed. It was undocumented and deprecated since Python 3.4.

- bpo-37305: Add .webmanifest -> application/manifest+json to list of recognized file types and content type headers

- bpo-37320: `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.

- bpo-37315: Deprecated accepting floats with integral value (like `5.0`) in `math.factorial()`.

- bpo-37312: `_dummy_thread` and `dummy_threading` modules have been removed. These modules were deprecated since Python 3.7 which requires threading support.

- bpo-33972: Email with single part but content-type set to `multipart/*` doesn’t raise AttributeError anymore.

- bpo-37280: Use threadpool for reading from file for sendfile fallback mode.

- bpo-37279: Fix asyncio sendfile support when sendfile sends extra data in fallback mode.

- bpo-19865: `ctypes.create_unicode_buffer()` now also supports non-BMP characters on platforms with 16-bit `wchar_t` (for example, Windows and AIX).

- bpo-37266: 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 Python fatal error if a daemon thread was still running.

- bpo-37210: Allow pure Python implementation of `pickle` to work even when the C `_pickle` module is unavailable.

- bpo-21872: Fix `lzma`: module decompresses data incompletely. When decompressing a FORMAT_ALONE format file, and it doesn’t have the end marker, sometimes the last one to dozens bytes can’t be output. Patch by Ma Lin.

- bpo-35922: Fix `RobotFileParser.crawl_delay()` and `RobotFileParser.request_rate()` to return `None` rather than raise `AttributeError` when no relevant rule is defined in the robots.txt file. Patch by Rémi Lapeyre.

- bpo-35766: Change the format of feature_version to be a (major, minor) tuple.

- bpo-36607: Eliminate `RuntimeError` raised by `asyncio.all_tasks()` if internal tasks weak set is changed by another thread during iteration.

- bpo-18748: `_pyio.IOBase` destructor now does nothing if getting the `closed` attribute fails to better mimic `_io.IOBase` finalizer.

- bpo-36402: 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 non-daemon Python threads complete.

- bpo-37206: Default values which cannot be represented as Python objects no longer improperly represented as `None` in function signatures.

- bpo-37111: Added `encoding` and `errors` keyword parameters to `logging.basicConfig`.

- bpo-12144: Ensure cookies with `expires` attribute are handled in `CookieJar.make_cookies()`.

- bpo-34886: Fix an unintended ValueError from `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. Patch contributed by Rémi Lapeyre.

- bpo-37173: The exception message for `inspect.getfile()` now correctly reports the passed class rather than the builtins module.

- bpo-37178: Give math.perm() a one argument form that means the same as math.factorial().

- bpo-37178: For math.perm(n, k), let k default to n, giving the same result as factorial.

- bpo-26185: Fix `repr()` on empty `ZipInfo` object. Patch by Mickaël Schoentgen.

- bpo-21315: Email headers containing RFC2047 encoded words are parsed despite the missing whitespace, and a defect registered. Also missing trailing whitespace after encoded words is now registered as a defect.

- bpo-31904: Port test_datetime to VxWorks: skip zoneinfo tests on VxWorks

- bpo-35805: Add parser for Message-ID header and add it to default HeaderRegistry. This should prevent folding of Message-ID using RFC 2048 encoded words.

- bpo-11122: Distutils won’t check for rpmbuild in specified paths only.

- bpo-34775: Division handling of PurePath now returns NotImplemented instead of raising a TypeError when passed something other than an instance of str or PurePath. Patch by Roger Aiudi.

- bpo-34749: `binascii.a2b_base64()` is now up to 2 times faster. Patch by Sergey Fedoseev.

- bpo-34519: Add additional aliases for HP Roman 8. Patch by Michael Osipov.

- bpo-28009: Fix uuid.getnode() on platforms with “.” as MAC Addr delimiter as well fix for MAC Addr format that omits a leading 0 in MAC Addr values. Currently, AIX is the only know platform with these settings. Patch by Michael Felt.

- bpo-30618: Add `readlink()`. Patch by Girts Folkmanis.

- bpo-32498: Made `urllib.parse.unquote()` accept bytes in addition to strings. Patch by Stein Karlsen.

- bpo-32689: Update `shutil.move()` function to allow for Path objects to be used as source argument. Patch by Emily Morehouse and Maxwell «5.13b» McKinnon.

- bpo-32820: Added __format__ to IPv4 and IPv6 classes. Always outputs a fully zero- padded string. Supports b/x/n modifiers (bin/hex/native format). Native format for IPv4 is bin, native format for IPv6 is hex. Also supports “#” and “_” modifiers.

- bpo-27657: Fix urllib.parse.urlparse() with numeric paths. A string like «path:80» is no longer parsed as a path but as a scheme («path») and a path («80»).

  Gracias a Benjamin Mintz por encontrar el error.

- bpo-37456: Slash (“/”) is now part of syntax.

- bpo-37487: Fix PyList_GetItem index description to include 0.

### Pruebas

- bpo-38614: Fix test_communicate() of test_asyncio.test_subprocess: use `support.LONG_TIMEOUT` (5 minutes), instead of just 1 minute.

- bpo-38614: Add timeout constants to `test.support`: `LOOPBACK_TIMEOUT`, `INTERNET_TIMEOUT`, `SHORT_TIMEOUT` and `LONG_TIMEOUT`.

- bpo-38502: test.regrtest now uses process groups in the multiprocessing mode (-jN command line option) if process groups are available: if `os.setsid()` and `os.killpg()` functions are available.

- bpo-35998: Fix a race condition in test_asyncio.test_start_tls_server_1(). Previously, there was a race condition between the test main() function which replaces the protocol and the test ServerProto protocol which sends ANSWER once it gets HELLO. Now, only the test main() function is responsible to send data, ServerProto no longer sends data.

- bpo-38470: Fix `test_compileall.test_compile_dir_maxlevels()` on Windows without long path support: only create 3 subdirectories instead of between 20 and 100 subdirectories.

- bpo-37531: On timeout, regrtest no longer attempts to call `popen.communicate()` again: it can hang until all child processes using stdout and stderr pipes completes. Kill the worker process and ignores its output. Change also the faulthandler timeout of the main process from 1 minute to 5 minutes, for Python slowest buildbots.

- bpo-38239: Fix test_gdb for Link Time Optimization (LTO) builds.

- bpo-38275: test_ssl now handles disabled TLS/SSL versions better. OpenSSL’s crypto policy and run-time settings are recognized and tests for disabled versions are skipped. Tests also accept more TLS minimum_versions for platforms that override OpenSSL’s default with strict settings.

- bpo-38271: The private keys for test_ssl were encrypted with 3DES in traditional PKCS#5 format. 3DES and the digest algorithm of PKCS#5 are blocked by some strict crypto policies. Use PKCS#8 format with AES256 encryption instead.

- bpo-38270: test.support now has a helper function to check for availability of a hash digest function. Several tests are refactored avoid MD5 and use SHA256 instead. Other tests are marked to use MD5 and skipped when MD5 is disabled.

- bpo-37123: Multiprocessing test test_mymanager() now also expects -SIGTERM, not only exitcode 0. BaseManager._finalize_manager() sends SIGTERM to the manager process if it takes longer than 1 second to stop, which happens on slow buildbots.

- bpo-38212: Multiprocessing tests: increase test_queue_feeder_donot_stop_onexc() timeout from 1 to 60 seconds.

- bpo-38117: Test with OpenSSL 1.1.1d

- bpo-38018: Increase code coverage for multiprocessing.shared_memory.

- bpo-37805: Add tests for json.dump(…, skipkeys=True). Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-37531: Enhance regrtest multiprocess timeout: write a message when killing a worker process, catch popen.kill() and popen.wait() exceptions, put a timeout on the second call to popen.communicate().

- bpo-37876: Add tests for ROT-13 codec.

- bpo-36833: Added tests for PyDateTime_xxx_GET_xxx() macros of the C API of the `datetime` module. Patch by Joannah Nanjekye.

- bpo-37558: Fix test_shared_memory_cleaned_after_process_termination name handling

- bpo-37526: Add `test.support.catch_threading_exception()`: context manager catching `threading.Thread` exception using `threading.excepthook()`.

- bpo-37421: test_concurrent_futures now explicitly stops the ForkServer instance if it’s running.

- bpo-37421: multiprocessing tests now stop the ForkServer instance if it’s running: close the «alive» file descriptor to ask the server to stop and then remove its UNIX address.

- bpo-37421: test_distutils.test_build_ext() is now able to remove the temporary directory on Windows: don’t import the newly built C extension («xx») in the current process, but test it in a separated process.

- bpo-37421: test_concurrent_futures now cleans up multiprocessing to remove immediately temporary directories created by multiprocessing.util.get_temp_dir().

- bpo-37421: test_winconsoleio doesn’t leak a temporary file anymore: use tempfile.TemporaryFile() to remove it when the test completes.

- bpo-37421: multiprocessing tests now explicitly call `_run_finalizers()` to immediately remove temporary directories created by tests.

- bpo-37421: urllib.request tests now call `urlcleanup()` to remove temporary files created by `urlretrieve()` tests and to clear the `_opener` global variable set by `urlopen()` and functions calling indirectly `urlopen()`.

- bpo-37472: Remove `Lib/test/outstanding_bugs.py`.

- bpo-37199: Fix test failures when IPv6 is unavailable or disabled.

- bpo-19696: Replace deprecated method «random.choose» with «random.choice» in «test_pkg_import.py».

- bpo-37335: Remove no longer necessary code from c locale coercion tests

- bpo-37421: Fix test_shutil to no longer leak temporary files.

- bpo-37411: Fix test_wsgiref.testEnviron() to no longer depend on the environment variables (don’t fail if «X» variable is set).

- bpo-37400: Fix test_os.test_chown(): use os.getgroups() rather than grp.getgrall() to get groups. Rename also the test to test_chown_gid().

- bpo-37359: Add –cleanup option to python3 -m test to remove `test_python_*` directories of previous failed jobs. Add «make cleantest» to run `python3 -m test --cleanup`.

- bpo-37362: test_gdb no longer fails if it gets an «unexpected» message on stderr: it now ignores stderr. The purpose of test_gdb is to test that python-gdb.py commands work as expected, not to test gdb.

- bpo-35998: Avoid TimeoutError in test_asyncio: test_start_tls_server_1()

- bpo-37278: Fix test_asyncio ProactorLoopCtrlC: join the thread to prevent leaking a running thread and leaking a reference.

- bpo-37261: Fix `test.support.catch_unraisable_exception()`: its __exit__() method now ignores unraisable exception raised when clearing its `unraisable` attribute.

- bpo-37069: 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.

- bpo-37252: Fix assertions in `test_close` and `test_events_mask_overflow` devpoll tests.

- bpo-37169: Rewrite `_PyObject_IsFreed()` unit tests.

- bpo-37153: `test_venv.test_multiprocessing()` now explicitly calls `pool.terminate()` to wait until the pool completes.

- bpo-34001: Make test_ssl pass with LibreSSL. LibreSSL handles minimum and maximum TLS version differently than OpenSSL.

- bpo-36919: Make `test_source_encoding.test_issue2301` implementation independent. The test will work now for both CPython and IronPython.

- bpo-30202: Update `test.test_importlib.test_abc` to test `find_spec()`.

- bpo-28009: Modify the test_uuid logic to test when a program is available AND can be used to obtain a MACADDR as basis for an UUID. Patch by M. Felt

- bpo-34596: Fallback to a default reason when `unittest.skip()` is uncalled. Patch by Naitree Zhu.

### Construir

- bpo-38809: On Windows, build scripts will now recognize and use python.exe from an active virtual env.

- bpo-38684: Fix _hashlib build when Blake2 is disabled, but OpenSSL supports it.

- bpo-38468: Misc/python-config.in now uses `getvar()` for all still existing `sysconfig.get_config_var()` calls. Patch by Joannah Nanjekye.

- bpo-37415: Fix stdatomic.h header check for ICC compiler: the ICC implementation lacks atomic_uintptr_t type which is needed by Python.

- bpo-38301: In Solaris family, we must be sure to use `-D_REENTRANT`. Patch by Jesús Cea Avión.

- bpo-36002: Locate `llvm-profdata` and `llvm-ar` binaries using `AC_PATH_TOOL` rather than `AC_PATH_TARGET_TOOL`.

- bpo-37936: The `.gitignore` file systematically keeps «rooted», with a non-trailing slash, all the rules that are meant to apply to files in a specific place in the repo. Previously, when the intended file to ignore happened to be at the root of the repo, we’d most often accidentally also ignore files and directories with the same name anywhere in the tree.

- bpo-37760: The `Tools/unicode/makeunicodedata.py` script, which is used for converting information from the Unicode Character Database into generated code and data used by the methods of `str` and by the `unicodedata` module, now handles each character’s data as a `dataclass` with named attributes, rather than a length-18 list of different fields.

- bpo-37936: The `.gitignore` file no longer applies to any files that are in fact tracked in the Git repository. Patch by Greg Price.

- bpo-37725: Change «clean» makefile target to also clean the program guided optimization (PGO) data. Previously you would have to use «make clean» and «make profile-removal», or «make clobber».

- bpo-37707: Mark some individual tests to skip when –pgo is used. The tests marked increase the PGO task time significantly and likely don’t help improve optimization of the final executable.

- bpo-36044: Reduce the number of unit tests run for the PGO generation task. This speeds up the task by a factor of about 15x. Running the full unit test suite is slow. This change may result in a slightly less optimized build since not as many code branches will be executed. If you are willing to wait for the much slower build, the old behavior can be restored using “./configure [..] PROFILE_TASK=»-m test –pgo-extended»”. We make no guarantees as to which PGO task set produces a faster build. Users who care should run their own relevant benchmarks as results can depend on the environment, workload, and compiler tool chain.

- bpo-37468: `make install` no longer installs `wininst-*.exe` files used by distutils bdist_wininst: bdist_wininst only works on Windows.

- bpo-37189: Many `PyRun_XXX()` functions like `PyRun_String()` were no longer exported in `libpython38.dll` by mistake. Export them again to fix the ABI compatibility.

- bpo-25361: Enables use of SSE2 instructions in Windows 32-bit build.

- bpo-36210: Update optional extension module detection for AIX. ossaudiodev and spwd are not applicable for AIX, and are no longer reported as missing. 3rd-party packaging of ncurses (with ASIS support) conflicts with officially supported AIX curses library, so configure AIX to use libcurses.a. However, skip trying to build _curses_panel.

- bpo-38598: Do not try to compile IDLE shell or output windows

- bpo-36698: IDLE no longer fails when write non-encodable characters to stderr. It now escapes them with a backslash, as the regular Python interpreter. Added the `errors` field to the standard streams.

- bpo-35379: When exiting IDLE, catch any AttributeError. One happens when EditorWindow.close is called twice. Printing a traceback, when IDLE is run from a terminal, is useless and annoying.

- bpo-38183: To avoid problems, test_idle ignores the user config directory. It no longer tries to create or access .idlerc or any files within. Users must run IDLE to discover problems with saving settings.

- bpo-38077: IDLE no longer adds “argv” to the user namespace when initializing it. This bug only affected 3.7.4 and 3.8.0b2 to 3.8.0b4.

- bpo-38041: Shell restart lines now fill the window width, always start with “=”, and avoid wrapping unnecessarily. The line will still wrap if the included file name is long relative to the width.

- bpo-37321: Both subprocess connection error messages now refer to the “Startup failure” section of the IDLE doc.

- bpo-17535: Add optional line numbers for IDLE editor windows. Windows open without line numbers unless set otherwise in the General tab of the configuration dialog.

- bpo-26806: To compensate for stack frames added by IDLE and avoid possible problems with low recursion limits, add 30 to limits in the user code execution process. Subtract 30 when reporting recursion limits to make this addition mostly transparent.

- bpo-37177: Properly “attach” search dialogs to their main window so that they behave like other dialogs and do not get hidden behind their main window.

- bpo-37039: Adjust «Zoom Height» to individual screens by momentarily maximizing the window on first use with a particular screen. Changing screen settings may invalidate the saved height. While a window is maximized, «Zoom Height» has no effect.

- bpo-35763: Make calltip reminder about “/” meaning positional-only less obtrusive by only adding it when there is room on the first line.

- bpo-5680: Add “Run… Customized” to the Run menu to run a module with customized settings. Any “command line arguments” entered are added to sys.argv. One can suppress the normal Shell main module restart.

- bpo-36390: Gather Format menu functions into format.py. Combine paragraph.py, rstrip.py, and format methods from editor.py.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-38118: Update Valgrind suppression file to ignore a false alarm in `PyUnicode_Decode()` when using GCC builtin strcmp().

- bpo-37803: pdb’s `--help` and `--version` long options now work.

- bpo-37942: Improve ArgumentClinic converter for floats.

- bpo-37704: Remove `Tools/scripts/h2py.py`: use cffi to access a C API in Python.

- bpo-37675: 2to3 now works when run from a zipped standard library.

- bpo-37034: Argument Clinic now uses the argument name on errors with keyword-only argument instead of their position. Patch contributed by Rémi Lapeyre.

- bpo-37064: Add option -k to pathscript.py script: preserve shebang flags. Add option -a to pathscript.py script: add flags.

### API C

- bpo-37633: Re-export some function compatibility wrappers for macros in `pythonrun.h`.

- bpo-38644: Provide `Py_EnterRecursiveCall()` and `Py_LeaveRecursiveCall()` as regular functions for the limited API. Previously, there were defined as macros, but these macros didn’t work with the limited API which cannot access `PyThreadState.recursion_depth` field. Remove `_Py_CheckRecursionLimit` from the stable ABI.

- bpo-38650: The global variable `PyStructSequence_UnnamedField` is now a constant and refers to a constant string.

- bpo-38540: Fixed possible leak in `PyArg_Parse()` and similar functions for format units `"es#"` and `"et#"` when the macro `PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN` is not defined.

- bpo-38395: Fix a crash in `weakref.proxy` objects due to incorrect lifetime management when calling some associated methods that may delete the last reference to object being referenced by the proxy. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-38303: Update audioop extension module to use the stable ABI (PEP-384). Patch by Tyler Kieft.

- bpo-38234: `Py_SetPath()` now sets `sys.executable` to the program full path (`Py_GetProgramFullPath()`) rather than to the program name (`Py_GetProgramName()`).

- bpo-38234: Python ignored arguments passed to `Py_SetPath()`, `Py_SetPythonHome()` and `Py_SetProgramName()`: fix Python initialization to use specified arguments.

- bpo-38205: The `Py_UNREACHABLE()` macro now calls `Py_FatalError()`.

- bpo-38140: Make dict and weakref offsets opaque for C heap types by passing the offsets through PyMemberDef

- bpo-37879: Fix subtype_dealloc to suppress the type decref when the base type is a C heap type

- bpo-37645: Add `_PyObject_FunctionStr()` to get a user-friendly string representation of a function-like object. Patch by Jeroen Demeyer.

- bpo-29548: The functions `PyEval_CallObject`, `PyEval_CallFunction`, `PyEval_CallMethod` and `PyEval_CallObjectWithKeywords` are deprecated. Use `PyObject_Call()` and its variants instead.

- bpo-37151: `PyCFunction_Call` is now a deprecated alias of `PyObject_Call()`.

- bpo-37540: The vectorcall protocol now requires that the caller passes only strings as keyword names.

- bpo-37207: The vectorcall protocol is now enabled for `type` objects: set `tp_vectorcall` to a vectorcall function to be used instead of `tp_new` and `tp_init` when calling the class itself.

- bpo-21120: Exclude Python-ast.h, ast.h and asdl.h from the limited API.

- bpo-37483: Add new function `_PyObject_CallOneArg` for calling an object with one positional argument.

- bpo-36763: Add `PyConfig_SetWideStringList()` function.

- bpo-37337: Add fast functions for calling methods: `_PyObject_VectorcallMethod()`, `_PyObject_CallMethodNoArgs()` and `_PyObject_CallMethodOneArg()`.

- bpo-28805: The `METH_FASTCALL` calling convention has been documented.

- bpo-37221: The new function `PyCode_NewWithPosOnlyArgs()` allows to create code objects like `PyCode_New()`, but with an extra posonlyargcount parameter for indicating the number of positonal-only arguments.

- bpo-37215: Fix dtrace issue introduce by bpo-36842

- bpo-37194: 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.

- bpo-37170: Fix the cast on error in `PyLong_AsUnsignedLongLongMask()`.

- bpo-35381: Convert posixmodule.c statically allocated types `DirEntryType` and `ScandirIteratorType` to heap-allocated types.

## Python 3.8.0 beta 1

Release date: 2019-06-04

### Seguridad

- bpo-35907: CVE-2019-9948: Avoid file reading by disallowing `local-file://` and `local_file://` URL schemes in `URLopener().open()` and `URLopener().retrieve()` of `urllib.request`.

- bpo-33529: Prevent fold function used in email header encoding from entering infinite loop when there are too many non-ASCII characters in a header.

- bpo-33164: Updated blake2 implementation which uses secure memset implementation provided by platform.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-35814: Allow unpacking in the right hand side of annotated assignments. In particular, `t: Tuple[int, ...] = x, y, *z` is now allowed.

- bpo-37126: All structseq objects are now tracked by the garbage collector. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-37122: Make the co_argcount attribute of code objects represent the total number of positional arguments (including positional-only arguments). The value of co_posonlyargcount can be used to distinguish which arguments are positional only, and the difference (co_argcount - co_posonlyargcount) is the number of positional-or-keyword arguments. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-20092: Constructors of `int`, `float` and `complex` will now use the `__index__()` special method, if available and the corresponding method `__int__()`, `__float__()` or `__complex__()` is not available.

- bpo-37087: Add native thread ID (TID) support to OpenBSD.

- bpo-26219: Implemented per opcode cache mechanism and `LOAD_GLOBAL` instruction use it. `LOAD_GLOBAL` is now about 40% faster. Contributed by Yury Selivanov, and Inada Naoki.

- bpo-37072: Fix crash in PyAST_FromNodeObject() when flags is NULL.

- bpo-37029: Freeing a great many small objects could take time quadratic in the number of arenas, due to using linear search to keep `obmalloc.c`’s list of usable arenas sorted by order of number of free memory pools. This is accomplished without search now, leaving the worst-case time linear in the number of arenas. For programs where this quite visibly matters (typically with more than 100 thousand small objects alive simultaneously), this can greatly reduce the time needed to release their memory.

- bpo-26423: Fix possible overflow in `wrap_lenfunc()` when `sizeof(long) < sizeof(Py_ssize_t)` (e.g., 64-bit Windows).

- bpo-37050: Improve the AST for «debug» f-strings, which use “=” to print out the source of the expression being evaluated. Delete expr_text from the FormattedValue node, and instead use a Constant string node (possibly merged with adjacent constant expressions inside the f-string).

- bpo-22385: The `bytes.hex`, `bytearray.hex`, and `memoryview.hex` methods as well as the `binascii.hexlify` and `b2a_hex` functions now have the ability to include an optional separator between hex bytes. This functionality was inspired by MicroPython’s hexlify implementation.

- bpo-26836: Add `os.memfd_create()`.

- bpo-37032: Added new `replace()` method to the code type (`types.CodeType`).

- bpo-37007: Implement `socket.if_nameindex()`, `socket.if_nametoindex()`, and `socket.if_indextoname()` on Windows.

- bpo-36829: `PyErr_WriteUnraisable()` now creates a traceback object if there is no current traceback. Moreover, call `PyErr_NormalizeException()` and `PyException_SetTraceback()` to normalize the exception value. Ignore any error.

- bpo-36878: Only accept text after `# type: ignore` if the first character is ASCII. This is to disallow things like `# type: ignoreé`.

- bpo-36878: Store text appearing after a `# type: ignore` comment in the AST. For example a type ignore like `# type: ignore[E1000]` will have the string `"[E1000]"` stored in its AST node.

- bpo-2180: Treat line continuation at EOF as a `SyntaxError` by Anthony Sottile.

- bpo-36907: Fix a crash when calling a C function with a keyword dict (`f(**kwargs)`) and changing the dict `kwargs` while that function is running.

- bpo-36946: Fix possible signed integer overflow when handling slices.

- bpo-36826: Add NamedExpression kind support to ast_unparse.c

- bpo-1875: A `SyntaxError` is now raised if a code blocks that will be optimized away (e.g. if conditions that are always false) contains syntax errors. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-36027: Allow computation of modular inverses via three-argument `pow`: the second argument is now permitted to be negative in the case where the first and third arguments are relatively prime.

- bpo-36861: Update the Unicode database to version 12.1.0.

- bpo-28866: Avoid caching attributes of classes which type defines mro() to avoid a hard cache invalidation problem.

- bpo-36851: The `FrameType` stack is now correctly cleaned up if the execution ends with a return and the stack is not empty.

- bpo-34616: The `compile()` builtin functions now support the `ast.PyCF_ALLOW_TOP_LEVEL_AWAIT` flag, which allow to compile sources that contains top-level `await`, `async with` or `async for`. This is useful to evaluate async-code from with an already async functions; for example in a custom REPL.

- bpo-36842: Implement PEP 578, adding sys.audit, io.open_code and related APIs.

- bpo-27639: Correct return type for UserList slicing operations. Patch by Michael Blahay, Erick Cervantes, and vaultah

- bpo-36737: Move PyRuntimeState.warnings into per-interpreter state (via «module state»).

- bpo-36793: Removed `__str__` implementations from builtin types `bool`, `int`, `float`, `complex` and few classes from the standard library. They now inherit `__str__()` from `object`.

- bpo-36817: Add a `=` feature f-strings for debugging. This can precede `!s`, `!r`, or `!a`. It produces the text of the expression, followed by an equal sign, followed by the repr of the value of the expression. So `f'{3*9+15=}'` would be equal to the string `'3*9+15=42'`. If `=` is specified, the default conversion is set to `!r`, unless a format spec is given, in which case the formatting behavior is unchanged, and __format__ will be used.

- bpo-24048: Save the live exception during import.c’s `remove_module()`.

- bpo-27987: pymalloc returns memory blocks aligned by 16 bytes, instead of 8 bytes, on 64-bit platforms to conform x86-64 ABI. Recent compilers assume this alignment more often. Patch by Inada Naoki.

- bpo-36601: A long-since-meaningless check for `getpid() == main_pid` was removed from Python’s internal C signal handler.

- bpo-36594: Fix incorrect use of `%p` in format strings. Patch by Zackery Spytz.

- bpo-36045: builtins.help() now prefixes `async` for async functions

- bpo-36084: Add native thread ID (TID) to threading.Thread objects (supported platforms: Windows, FreeBSD, Linux, macOS)

- bpo-36035: Added fix for broken symlinks in combination with pathlib

- bpo-35983: Added new trashcan macros to deal with a double deallocation that could occur when the `tp_dealloc` of a subclass calls the `tp_dealloc` of a base class and that base class uses the trashcan mechanism. Patch by Jeroen Demeyer.

- bpo-20602: Do not clear `sys.flags` and `sys.float_info` during shutdown. Patch by Zackery Spytz.

- bpo-26826: Expose `copy_file_range()` as a low level API in the `os` module.

- bpo-32388: Remove cross-version binary compatibility requirement in tp_flags.

- bpo-31862: Port binascii to PEP 489 multiphase initialization. Patch by Marcel Plch.

- bpo-35246: Make `asyncio.create_subprocess_exec()` accept path-like arguments.

- bpo-35279: Change default max_workers of `ThreadPoolExecutor` from `cpu_count() * 5` to `min(32, cpu_count() + 4)`. Previous value was unreasonably large on many cores machines.

- bpo-37076: `_thread.start_new_thread()` now logs uncaught exception raised by the function using `sys.unraisablehook()`, rather than `sys.excepthook()`, so the hook gets access to the function which raised the exception.

- bpo-33725: On macOS, the `multiprocessing` module now uses spawn start method by default.

- bpo-37054: Fix destructor `_pyio.BytesIO` and `_pyio.TextIOWrapper`: initialize their `_buffer` attribute as soon as possible (in the class body), because it’s used by `__del__()` which calls `close()`.

- bpo-37058: PEP 544: Add `Protocol` and `@runtime_checkable` to the `typing` module.

- bpo-36933: The functions `sys.set_coroutine_wrapper` and `sys.get_coroutine_wrapper` that were deprecated and marked for removal in 3.8 have been removed.

- bpo-37047: Handle late binding and attribute access in `unittest.mock.AsyncMock` setup for autospeccing. Document newly implemented async methods in `unittest.mock.MagicMock`.

- bpo-37049: PEP 589: Add `TypedDict` to the `typing` module.

- bpo-37046: PEP 586: Add `Literal` to the `typing` module.

- bpo-37045: PEP 591: Add `Final` qualifier and `@final` decorator to the `typing` module.

- bpo-37035: Don’t log OSError based exceptions if a fatal error has occurred in asyncio transport. Peer can generate almost any OSError, user cannot avoid these exceptions by fixing own code. Errors are still propagated to user code, it’s just logging them is pointless and pollute asyncio logs.

- bpo-37001: `symtable.symtable()` now accepts the same input types for source code as the built-in `compile()` function. Patch by Dino Viehland.

- bpo-37028: Implement asyncio REPL

- bpo-37027: Return safe to use proxy socket object from transport.get_extra_info(“socket”)

- bpo-32528: Make asyncio.CancelledError a BaseException.

  Esto solucionará el error común que cometen muchos usuarios de asyncio: una cláusula «excepto excepción» que rompe la cancelación de tareas.

  Además de este cambio, dejamos de heredar asyncio.TimeoutError y asyncio.InvalidStateError de sus contrapartes concurrent.futures.*. No tiene sentido que estas excepciones compartan la cadena de herencia.

- bpo-1230540: Add a new `threading.excepthook()` function which handles uncaught `threading.Thread.run()` exception. It can be overridden to control how uncaught `threading.Thread.run()` exceptions are handled.

- bpo-36996: Handle `unittest.mock.patch()` used as a decorator on async functions.

- bpo-37008: Add support for calling `next()` with the mock resulting from `unittest.mock.mock_open()`

### Pruebas

- bpo-37069: Modify test_coroutines, test_cprofile, test_generators, test_raise, test_ssl and test_yield_from to use `test.support.catch_unraisable_exception()` rather than `test.support.captured_stderr()`.

- bpo-37098: Fix test_memfd_create on older Linux Kernels.

- bpo-37081: Test with OpenSSL 1.1.1c

### Construir

- bpo-36721: To embed Python into an application, a new `--embed` option must be passed to `python3-config --libs --embed` to get `-lpython3.8` (link the application to libpython). To support both 3.8 and older, try `python3-config --libs --embed` first and fallback to `python3-config --libs` (without `--embed`) if the previous command fails.

  Agregue un módulo pkg-config `python-3.8-embed` para incrustar Python en una aplicación: `pkg-config python-3.8-embed --libs` incluye `-lpython3.8`. Para admitir 3.8 y versiones anteriores, pruebe `pkg-config python-X.Y-embed --libs` primero y vuelva a `pkg-config python-X.Y --libs` (sin `--embed`) si falla el comando anterior (reemplace `X.Y` con la versión de Python).

  Por otro lado, `pkg-config python3.8 --libs` ya no contiene `-lpython3.8`. Las extensiones C no deben estar vinculadas a libpython (excepto en Android, caso manejado por el script); este cambio es incompatible con versiones anteriores a propósito.

- bpo-36786: «make install» now runs compileall in parallel.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-35610: Replace now redundant .context_use_ps1 with .prompt_last_line. This finishes change started in bpo-31858.

- bpo-37038: Make idlelib.run runnable; add test clause.

- bpo-36958: Print any argument other than None or int passed to SystemExit or sys.exit().

- bpo-36807: When saving a file, call os.fsync() so bits are flushed to e.g. USB drive.

- bpo-32411: In browser.py, remove extraneous sorting by line number since dictionary was created in line number order.

- bpo-36763: `Py_Main()` now returns the exitcode rather than calling `Py_Exit(exitcode)` when calling `PyErr_Print()` if the current exception type is `SystemExit`.

- bpo-36922: Add new type flag `Py_TPFLAGS_METHOD_DESCRIPTOR` for objects behaving like unbound methods. These are objects supporting the optimization given by the `LOAD_METHOD`/`CALL_METHOD` opcodes. See PEP 590.

- bpo-36728: The `PyEval_ReInitThreads()` function has been removed from the C API. It should not be called explicitly: use `PyOS_AfterFork_Child()` instead.

Enable `tracemalloc` to get the traceback where a memory block has been allocated when a fatal memory error is logged to decide where to put a breakpoint. Compile Python with `PYMEM_DEBUG_SERIALNO` defined to get back the field.

- bpo-36588: On AIX, `sys.platform` doesn’t contain the major version anymore. Always return `'aix'`, instead of `'aix3'` .. `'aix7'`. Since older Python versions include the version number, it is recommended to always use `sys.platform.startswith('aix')`. Contributed by M. Felt.

- bpo-36549: Change str.capitalize to use titlecase for the first character instead of uppercase.

- bpo-36540: Implement PEP 570 (Python positional-only parameters). Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-28238: The `.find*()` methods of xml.etree.ElementTree can now search for wildcards like `{*}tag` and `{ns}*` that match a tag in any namespace or all tags in a namespace. Patch by Stefan Behnel.

- bpo-26978: `pathlib.path.link_to()` is now implemented. It creates a hard link pointing to a path.

- bpo-1613500: `fileinput.FileInput` now uses the input file mode to correctly set the output file mode (previously it was hardcoded to `'w'`) when `inplace=True` is passed to its constructor.

- bpo-36734: Fix compilation of `faulthandler.c` on HP-UX. Initialize `stack_t current_stack` to zero using `memset()`.

- bpo-36673: The TreeBuilder and XMLPullParser in xml.etree.ElementTree gained support for parsing comments and processing instructions. Patch by Stefan Behnel.

- bpo-36650: The C version of functools.lru_cache() was treating calls with an empty `**kwargs` dictionary as being distinct from calls with no keywords at all. This did not result in an incorrect answer, but it did trigger an unexpected cache miss.

- bpo-28552: Fix `distutils.sysconfig` if `sys.executable` is `None` or an empty string: use `os.getcwd()` to initialize `project_base`. Fix also the distutils build command: don’t use `sys.executable` if it is `None` or an empty string.

- bpo-35755: `shutil.which()` and `distutils.spawn.find_executable()` now use `os.confstr("CS_PATH")` if available instead of `os.defpath`, if the `PATH` environment variable is not set. Moreover, don’t use `os.confstr("CS_PATH")` nor `os.defpath` if the `PATH` environment variable is set to an empty string.

- bpo-25430: improve performance of `IPNetwork.__contains__()`

- bpo-30485: Path expressions in xml.etree.ElementTree can now avoid explicit namespace prefixes for tags (or the «{namespace}tag» notation) by passing a default namespace with an empty string prefix.

- bpo-36575: The `_lsprof` module now uses internal timer same to `time.perf_counter()` by default. `gettimeofday(2)` was used on Unix. New timer has better resolution on most Unix platforms and timings are no longer impacted by system clock updates since `perf_counter()` is monotonic. Patch by Inada Naoki.

- bpo-33461: `json.loads` now emits `DeprecationWarning` when `encoding` option is specified. Patch by Matthias Bussonnier.

- bpo-36559: The random module now prefers the lean internal _sha512 module over hashlib for seed(version=2) to optimize import time.

- bpo-36492: Deprecated passing required arguments like func as keyword arguments in functions which should accept arbitrary keyword arguments and pass them to other function. Arbitrary keyword arguments (even with names «self» and «func») can now be passed to these functions if the required arguments are passed as positional arguments.

- bpo-27181: Add statistics.geometric_mean().

- bpo-30427: `os.path.normcase()` relies on `os.fspath()` to check the type of its argument. Redundant checks have been removed from its `posixpath.normcase()` and `ntpath.normcase()` implementations. Patch by Wolfgang Maier.

- bpo-36385: Stop rejecting IPv4 octets for being ambiguously octal. Leading zeros are ignored, and no longer are assumed to specify octal octets. Octets are always decimal numbers. Octets must still be no more than three digits, including leading zeroes.

- bpo-36434: Errors during writing to a ZIP file no longer prevent to properly close it.

- bpo-36407: Fixed wrong indentation writing for CDATA section in xml.dom.minidom. Patch by Vladimir Surjaninov.

- bpo-36345: Using the code of the `Tools/scripts/serve.py` script as an example in the `wsgiref` documentation. Contributed by Stéphane Wirtel.

- bpo-36157: Added Documention for PyInterpreterState_Main().

- bpo-33043: Updates the docs.python.org page with the addition of a “Contributing to Docs” link at the end of the page (between “Reporting Bugs” and “About Documentation”). Updates the “Found a Bug” page with additional links and information in the Documentation Bugs section.

- bpo-35581: @typing.type_check_only now allows type stubs to mark functions and classes not available during runtime.

- bpo-33832: Add glossary entry for “magic method”.

- bpo-32913: Added re.Match.groupdict example to regex HOWTO.

### Pruebas

- bpo-36719: regrtest now always detects uncollectable objects. Previously, the check was only enabled by `--findleaks`. The check now also works with `-jN/--multiprocess N`. `--findleaks` becomes a deprecated alias to `--fail-env-changed`.

- bpo-36725: When using multiprocessing mode (-jN), regrtest now better reports errors if a worker process fails, and it exits immediately on a worker thread failure or when interrupted.

- bpo-36454: Change test_time.test_monotonic() to test only the lower bound of elapsed time after a sleep command rather than the upper bound. This prevents unnecessary test failures on slow buildbots. Patch by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-32424: Improve test coverage for xml.etree.ElementTree. Patch by Gordon P. Hemsley.

- bpo-32424: Fix typo in test_cyclic_gc() test for xml.etree.ElementTree. Patch by Gordon P. Hemsley.

- bpo-36635: Add a new `_testinternalcapi` module to test the internal C API.

- bpo-36629: Fix `test_imap4_host_default_value()` of `test_imaplib`: catch also `errno.ENETUNREACH` error.

- bpo-36611: Fix `test_sys.test_getallocatedblocks()` when `tracemalloc` is enabled.

- bpo-36560: Fix reference leak hunting in regrtest: compute also deltas (of reference count, allocated memory blocks, file descriptor count) during warmup, to ensure that everything is initialized before starting to hunt reference leaks.

- bpo-36565: Fix reference hunting (`python3 -m test -R 3:3`) when Python has no built-in abc module.

- bpo-31904: Port test_resource to VxWorks: skip tests cases setting RLIMIT_FSIZE and RLIMIT_CPU.

- bpo-31904: Fix test_tabnanny on VxWorks: adjust ENOENT error message.

- bpo-36436: Fix `_testcapi.pymem_buffer_overflow()`: handle memory allocation failure.

- bpo-36341: Fix tests that may fail with PermissionError upon calling bind() on AF_UNIX sockets.

### Construir

- bpo-36747: Remove the stale scriptsinstall Makefile target.

- bpo-21536: On Unix, C extensions are no longer linked to libpython except on Android and Cygwin.

  Ahora es posible que un Python vinculado estáticamente cargue una extensión de C creada con una biblioteca compartida de Python.

  Cuando Python está incrustado, `libpython` no debe cargarse con `RTLD_LOCAL`, sino con `RTLD_GLOBAL` en su lugar. Anteriormente, usando `RTLD_LOCAL`, ya no era posible cargar extensiones C que no estaban vinculadas a `libpython`, como extensiones C de la biblioteca estándar construida por la sección `*shared*` de `Modules/Setup`.

  distutils, python-config y python-config.py se han modificado.

- bpo-36707: `./configure --with-pymalloc` no longer adds the `m` flag to SOABI (sys.implementation.cache_tag). Enabling or disabling pymalloc has no impact on the ABI.

- bpo-36635: Change `PyAPI_FUNC(type)`, `PyAPI_DATA(type)` and `PyMODINIT_FUNC` macros of `pyport.h` when `Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE` is defined. The `Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE` define must be now be used to build a C extension as a dynamic library accessing Python internals: export the PyInit_xxx() function in DLL exports on Windows.

- bpo-31904: Don’t build the `_crypt` extension on VxWorks.

- bpo-36618: Add `-fmax-type-align=8` to CFLAGS when clang compiler is detected. The pymalloc memory allocator aligns memory on 8 bytes. On x86-64, clang expects alignment on 16 bytes by default and so uses MOVAPS instruction which can lead to segmentation fault. Instruct clang that Python is limited to alignment on 8 bytes to use MOVUPS instruction instead: slower but don’t trigger a SIGSEGV if the memory is not aligned on 16 bytes. Sadly, the flag must be added to `CFLAGS` and not just `CFLAGS_NODIST`, since third party C extensions can have the same issue.

- bpo-36605: `make tags` and `make TAGS` now also parse `Modules/_io/*.c` and `Modules/_io/*.h`.

- bpo-36465: Release builds and debug builds are now ABI compatible: defining the `Py_DEBUG` macro no longer implies the `Py_TRACE_REFS` macro, which introduces the only ABI incompatibility. The `Py_TRACE_REFS` macro, which adds the `sys.getobjects()` function and the `PYTHONDUMPREFS` environment variable, can be set using the new `./configure --with-trace-refs` build option.

- bpo-36577: setup.py now correctly reports missing OpenSSL headers and libraries again.

- bpo-36544: Fix regression introduced in bpo-36146 refactoring setup.py

- bpo-36508: `python-config --ldflags` no longer includes flags of the `LINKFORSHARED` variable. The `LINKFORSHARED` variable must only be used to build executables.

- bpo-36503: Remove references to «aix3» and «aix4». Patch by M. Felt.

### Ventanas

- bpo-35920: Added platform.win32_edition() and platform.win32_is_iot(). Added support for cross-compiling packages for Windows ARM32. Skip tests that are not expected to work on Windows IoT Core ARM32.

- bpo-36649: Remove trailing spaces for registry keys when installed via the Store.

- bpo-34144: Fixed activate.bat to correctly update codepage when chcp.com returns dots in output. Patch by Lorenz Mende.

- bpo-36509: Added preset-iot layout for Windows IoT ARM containers. This layout doesn’t contain UI components like tkinter or IDLE. It also doesn’t contain files to support on-target builds since Windows ARM32 builds must be cross-compiled when using MSVC.

- bpo-35941: enum_certificates function of the ssl module now returns certificates from all available certificate stores inside windows in a query instead of returning only certificates from the system wide certificate store. This includes certificates from these certificate stores: local machine, local machine enterprise, local machine group policy, current user, current user group policy, services, users. ssl.enum_crls() function is changed in the same way to return all certificate revocation lists inside the windows certificate revocation list stores.

- bpo-36441: Fixes creating a venv when debug binaries are installed.

- bpo-36085: Enable better DLL resolution on Windows by using safe DLL search paths and adding `os.add_dll_directory()`.

- bpo-36010: Add the venv standard library module to the nuget distribution for Windows.

- bpo-29515: Add the following socket module constants on Windows: IPPROTO_AH IPPROTO_CBT IPPROTO_DSTOPTS IPPROTO_EGP IPPROTO_ESP IPPROTO_FRAGMENT IPPROTO_GGP IPPROTO_HOPOPTS IPPROTO_ICLFXBM IPPROTO_ICMPV6 IPPROTO_IDP IPPROTO_IGMP IPPROTO_IGP IPPROTO_IPV4 IPPROTO_IPV6 IPPROTO_L2TP IPPROTO_MAX IPPROTO_ND IPPROTO_NONE IPPROTO_PGM IPPROTO_PIM IPPROTO_PUP IPPROTO_RDP IPPROTO_ROUTING IPPROTO_SCTP IPPROTO_ST

- bpo-35947: Added current version of libffi to cpython-source-deps. Change _ctypes to use current version of libffi on Windows.

- bpo-34060: Report system load when running test suite on Windows. Patch by Ammar Askar. Based on prior work by Jeremy Kloth.

- bpo-31512: With the Windows 10 Creators Update, non-elevated users can now create symlinks as long as the computer has Developer Mode enabled.

### Mac OS

- bpo-34602: Avoid failures setting macOS stack resource limit with resource.setrlimit. This reverts an earlier fix for bpo-18075 which forced a non-default stack size when building the interpreter executable on macOS.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-36429: Fix starting IDLE with pyshell. Add idlelib.pyshell alias at top; remove pyshell alias at bottom. Remove obsolete __name__==”__main__” command.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-14546: Fix the argument handling in Tools/scripts/lll.py.

### API C

- bpo-36763: Fix memory leak in `Py_SetStandardStreamEncoding()`: release memory if the function is called twice.

- bpo-36641: PyDoc_VAR(name) and PyDoc_STRVAR(name, str) now create `static const char name[]` instead of `static char name[]`. Patch by Inada Naoki.

- bpo-36389: Change the value of `CLEANBYTE`, `DEADDYTE` and `FORBIDDENBYTE` internal constants used by debug hooks on Python memory allocators (`PyMem_SetupDebugHooks()` function). Byte patterns `0xCB`, `0xDB` and `0xFB` have been replaced with `0xCD`, `0xDD` and `0xFD` to use the same values than Windows CRT debug `malloc()` and `free()`.

- bpo-36443: Since Python 3.7.0, calling `Py_DecodeLocale()` before `Py_Initialize()` produces mojibake if the `LC_CTYPE` locale is coerced and/or if the UTF-8 Mode is enabled by the user configuration. The LC_CTYPE coercion and UTF-8 Mode are now disabled by default to fix the mojibake issue. They must now be enabled explicitly (opt-in) using the new `_Py_PreInitialize()` API with `_PyPreConfig`.

- bpo-36025: Fixed an accidental change to the datetime C API where the arguments to the `PyDate_FromTimestamp()` function were incorrectly interpreted as a single timestamp rather than an arguments tuple, which causes existing code to start raising `TypeError`. The backwards-incompatible change was only present in alpha releases of Python 3.8. Patch by Paul Ganssle.

- bpo-35810: Modify `PyObject_Init` to correctly increase the refcount of heap- allocated Type objects. Also fix the refcounts of the heap-allocated types that were either doing this manually or not decreasing the type’s refcount in tp_dealloc

## Python 3.8.0 alpha 3

Release date: 2019-03-25

### Seguridad

- bpo-36216: Changes urlsplit() to raise ValueError when the URL contains characters that decompose under IDNA encoding (NFKC-normalization) into characters that affect how the URL is parsed.

- bpo-35121: Don’t send cookies of domain A without Domain attribute to domain B when domain A is a suffix match of domain B while using a cookiejar with `http.cookiejar.DefaultCookiePolicy` policy. Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-36412: Fix a possible crash when creating a new dictionary.

- bpo-36398: Fix a possible crash in `structseq_repr()`.

- bpo-36256: Fix bug in parsermodule when parsing a state in a DFA that has two or more arcs with labels of the same type. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-36365: repr(structseq) is no longer limited to 512 bytes.

- bpo-36374: Fix a possible null pointer dereference in `merge_consts_recursive()`. Patch by Zackery Spytz.

- bpo-36236: At Python initialization, the current directory is no longer prepended to `sys.path` if it has been removed.

- bpo-36352: Python initialization now fails with an error, rather than silently truncating paths, if a path is too long.

- bpo-36301: Python initialization now fails if decoding `pybuilddir.txt` configuration file fails at startup.

- bpo-36333: Fix leak in _PyRuntimeState_Fini. Contributed by Stéphane Wirtel.

- bpo-36332: The builtin `compile()` can now handle AST objects that contain assignment expressions. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-36282: Improved error message for too much positional arguments in some builtin functions.

- bpo-30040: New empty dict uses fewer memory for now. It used more memory than empty dict created by `dict.clear()`. And empty dict creation and deletion is about 2x faster. Patch by Inada Naoki.

- bpo-36262: Fix an unlikely memory leak on conversion from string to float in the function `_Py_dg_strtod()` used by `float(str)`, `complex(str)`, `pickle.load()`, `marshal.load()`, etc.

- bpo-36252: Update Unicode databases to version 12.0.0.

- bpo-36218: Fix a segfault occurring when sorting a list of heterogeneous values. Patch contributed by Rémi Lapeyre and Elliot Gorokhovsky.

- bpo-36188: Cleaned up left-over vestiges of Python 2 unbound method handling in method objects and documentation. Patch by Martijn Pieters

- bpo-36124: Add a new interpreter-specific dict and expose it in the C-API via PyInterpreterState_GetDict(). This parallels PyThreadState_GetDict(). However, extension modules should continue using PyModule_GetState() for their own internal per-interpreter state.

- bpo-35975: Add a `feature_version` flag to `ast.parse()` (documented) and `compile()` (hidden) that allows tweaking the parser to support older versions of the grammar. In particular, if `feature_version` is 5 or 6, the hacks for the `async` and `await` keyword from PEP 492 are reinstated. (For 7 or higher, these are unconditionally treated as keywords, but they are still special tokens rather than `NAME` tokens that the parser driver recognizes.)

- bpo-31904: Use UTF-8 as the system encoding on VxWorks.

- bpo-36048: The `__index__()` special method will be used instead of `__int__()` for implicit conversion of Python numbers to C integers. Using the `__int__()` method in implicit conversions has been deprecated.

- bpo-35808: Retire pgen and use a modified version of pgen2 to generate the parser. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-36401: The class documentation created by pydoc now has a separate section for readonly properties.

- bpo-36320: The typing.NamedTuple() class has deprecated the _field_types attribute in favor of the __annotations__ attribute which carried the same information. Also, both attributes were converted from OrderedDict to a regular dict.

- bpo-34745: Fix `asyncio` ssl memory issues caused by circular references

- bpo-36324: Add method to statistics.NormalDist for computing the inverse cumulative normal distribution.

- bpo-36321: collections.namedtuple() misspelled the name of an attribute. To be consistent with typing.NamedTuple, the attribute name should have been «_field_defaults» instead of «_fields_defaults». For backwards compatibility, both spellings are now created. The misspelled version may be removed in the future.

- bpo-36297: «unicode_internal» codec is removed. It was deprecated since Python 3.3. Patch by Inada Naoki.

- bpo-36298: Raise ModuleNotFoundError in pyclbr when a module can’t be found. Thanks to “mental” for the bug report.

- bpo-36268: Switch the default format used for writing tars with mod:`tarfile` to the modern POSIX.1-2001 pax standard, from the vendor-specific GNU. Contributed by C.A.M. Gerlach.

- bpo-36285: Fix integer overflows in the array module. Patch by Stephan Hohe.

- bpo-31904: Add _signal module support for VxWorks.

- bpo-36272: `logging` does not silently ignore RecursionError anymore. Patch contributed by Rémi Lapeyre.

- bpo-36280: Add a kind field to ast.Constant. It is “u” if the literal has a “u” prefix (i.e. a Python 2 style unicode literal), else None.

- bpo-35931: The `pdb` `debug` command now gracefully handles all exceptions.

- bpo-36251: Fix format strings used for stderrprinter and re.Match reprs. Patch by Stephan Hohe.

- bpo-36235: Fix `CFLAGS` in `customize_compiler()` of `distutils.sysconfig`: when the `CFLAGS` environment variable is defined, don’t override `CFLAGS` variable with the `OPT` variable anymore. Initial patch written by David Malcolm.

- bpo-35807: Update ensurepip to install pip 19.0.3 and setuptools 40.8.0.

- bpo-36139: Release GIL when closing `mmap` objects.

- bpo-36179: Fix two unlikely reference leaks in _hashopenssl. The leaks only occur in out-of-memory cases.

- bpo-36169: Add overlap() method to statistics.NormalDist. Computes the overlapping coefficient for two normal distributions.

- bpo-36103: Default buffer size used by `shutil.copyfileobj()` is changed from 16 KiB to 64 KiB on non-Windows platform to reduce system call overhead. Contributed by Inada Naoki.

- bpo-36130: Fix `pdb` with `skip=...` when stepping into a frame without a `__name__` global. Patch by Anthony Sottile.

- bpo-35652: shutil.copytree(copy_function=…) erroneously pass DirEntry instead of a path string.

- bpo-35178: Ensure custom `warnings.formatwarning()` function can receive `line` as positional argument. Based on patch by Tashrif Billah.

- bpo-36106: Resolve potential name clash with libm’s sinpi(). Patch by Dmitrii Pasechnik.

- bpo-21269: Add `args` and `kwargs` properties to mock call objects. Contributed by Kumar Akshay.

- bpo-30670: `pprint.pp` has been added to pretty-print objects with dictionary keys being sorted with their insertion order by default. Parameter sort_dicts has been added to `pprint.pprint`, `pprint.pformat` and `pprint.PrettyPrinter`. Contributed by Rémi Lapeyre.

- bpo-35843: Implement `__getitem__` for `_NamespacePath`. Patch by Anthony Sottile.

- bpo-35802: Clean up code which checked presence of `os.stat` / `os.lstat` / `os.chmod` which are always present. Patch by Anthony Sottile.

- bpo-35715: Librates the return value of a ProcessPoolExecutor _process_worker after it’s no longer needed to free memory

- bpo-35493: Use `multiprocessing.connection.wait()` instead of polling each 0.2 seconds for worker updates in `multiprocessing.Pool`. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-35661: Store the venv prompt in pyvenv.cfg.

- bpo-35121: Don’t set cookie for a request when the request path is a prefix match of the cookie’s path attribute but doesn’t end with «/». Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.

- bpo-36234: test_posix.PosixUidGidTests: add tests for invalid uid/gid type (str). Initial patch written by David Malcolm.

- bpo-29571: Fix `test_re.test_locale_flag()`: use `locale.getpreferredencoding()` rather than `locale.getlocale()` to get the locale encoding. With some locales, `locale.getlocale()` returns the wrong encoding.

- bpo-36123: Fix race condition in test_socket.

### Construir

- bpo-36356: Fix leaks that led to build failure when configured with address sanitizer.

- bpo-36146: Add `TEST_EXTENSIONS` constant to `setup.py` to allow to not build test extensions like `_testcapi`.

- bpo-36146: Fix setup.py on macOS: only add `/usr/include/ffi` to include directories of _ctypes, not for all extensions.

- bpo-31904: Enable build system to cross-build for VxWorks RTOS.

### Ventanas

- bpo-36312: Fixed decoders for the following code pages: 50220, 50221, 50222, 50225, 50227, 50229, 57002 through 57011, 65000 and 42.

- bpo-23216: Add docstrings to IDLE search modules.

- bpo-36152: Remove colorizer.ColorDelegator.close_when_done and the corresponding argument of .close(). In IDLE, both have always been None or False since 2007.

- bpo-32129: Avoid blurry IDLE application icon on macOS with Tk 8.6. Patch by Kevin Walzer.

- bpo-36096: Refactor class variables to instance variables in colorizer.

- bpo-30348: Increase test coverage of idlelib.autocomplete by 30%. Patch by Louie Lu

### Herramientas / Demos

### API C

- bpo-36381: Raise `DeprecationWarning` when “#” formats are used for building or parsing values without `PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN`.

- bpo-36142: The whole coreconfig.h header is now excluded from Py_LIMITED_API. Move functions definitions into a new internal pycore_coreconfig.h header.

## Python 3.8.0 alpha 2

Release date: 2019-02-25

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-36052: Raise a `SyntaxError` when assigning a value to `__debug__` with the Assignment Operator. Contributed by Stéphane Wirtel and Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-36012: Doubled the speed of class variable writes. When a non-dunder attribute was updated, there was an unnecessary call to update slots.

- bpo-35942: The error message emitted when returning invalid types from `__fspath__` in interfaces that allow passing `PathLike` objects has been improved and now it does explain the origin of the error.

- bpo-36016: `gc.get_objects` can now receive an optional parameter indicating a generation to get objects from. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-1054041: When the main interpreter exits due to an uncaught KeyboardInterrupt, the process now exits in the appropriate manner for its parent process to detect that a SIGINT or ^C terminated the process. This allows shells and batch scripts to understand that the user has asked them to stop.

- bpo-35992: Fix `__class_getitem__()` not being called on a class with a custom non-subscriptable metaclass.

- bpo-35993: Fix a crash on fork when using subinterpreters. Contributed by Stéphane Wirtel

- bpo-35991: Fix a potential double free in Modules/_randommodule.c.

- bpo-35961: Fix a crash in slice_richcompare(): use strong references rather than stolen references for the two temporary internal tuples.

- bpo-35911: Enable the creation of cell objects by adding a `cell.__new__` method, and expose the type `cell` in `Lib/types.py` under the name CellType. Patch by Pierre Glaser.

- bpo-12822: Use monotonic clock for `pthread_cond_timedwait` when `pthread_condattr_setclock` and `CLOCK_MONOTONIC` are available.

- bpo-15248: The compiler emits now syntax warnings in the case when a comma is likely missed before tuple or list.

- bpo-35886: The implementation of PyInterpreterState has been moved into the internal header files (guarded by Py_BUILD_CORE).

- bpo-31506: Clarify the errors reported when `object.__new__` and `object.__init__` receive more than one argument. Contributed by Sanyam Khurana.

- bpo-35724: Signal-handling is now guaranteed to happen relative to the main interpreter.

- bpo-33608: We added a new internal _Py_AddPendingCall() that operates relative to the provided interpreter. This allows us to use the existing implementation to ask another interpreter to do work that cannot be done in the current interpreter, like decref an object the other interpreter owns. The existing Py_AddPendingCall() only operates relative to the main interpreter.

- bpo-33989: Fix a possible crash in `list.sort()` when sorting objects with `ob_type->tp_richcompare == NULL`. Patch by Zackery Spytz.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-35512: `unittest.mock.patch.dict()` used as a decorator with string target resolves the target during function call instead of during decorator construction. Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.

- bpo-36018: Add statistics.NormalDist, a tool for creating and manipulating normal distributions of random variable. Features a composite class that treats the mean and standard deviation of measurement data as single entity.

- bpo-35904: Added statistics.fmean() as a faster, floating point variant of the existing mean() function.

- bpo-35918: Removed broken `has_key` method from multiprocessing.managers.SyncManager.dict. Contributed by Rémi Lapeyre.

- bpo-35931: The `pdb` `debug` command now gracefully handles syntax errors.

- bpo-24209: In http.server script, rely on getaddrinfo to bind to preferred address based on the bind parameter. Now default bind or binding to a name may bind to IPv6 or dual-stack, depending on the environment.

- bpo-35321: Set `__spec__.origin` of `_frozen_importlib` to frozen so that it matches the behavior of `_frozen_importlib_external`. Patch by Nina Zakharenko.

- bpo-35378: Fix a reference issue inside `multiprocessing.Pool` that caused the pool to remain alive if it was deleted without being closed or terminated explicitly. A new strong reference is added to the pool iterators to link the lifetime of the pool to the lifetime of its iterators so the pool does not get destroyed if a pool iterator is still alive.

- bpo-34294: re module, fix wrong capturing groups in rare cases. `re.search()`, `re.findall()`, `re.sub()` and other functions that scan through string looking for a match, should reset capturing groups between two match attempts. Patch by Ma Lin.

- bpo-35606: Implement `math.prod()` as analogous function to `sum()` that returns the product of a “start” value (default: 1) times an iterable of numbers. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-32417: Performing arithmetic between `datetime.datetime` subclasses and `datetime.timedelta` now returns an object of the same type as the `datetime.datetime` subclass. As a result, `datetime.datetime.astimezone()` and alternate constructors like `datetime.datetime.now()` and `datetime.fromtimestamp()` called with a `tz` argument now also retain their subclass.

- bpo-35153: Add headers optional keyword-only parameter to `xmlrpc.client.ServerProxy`, `xmlrpc.client.Transport` and `xmlrpc.client.SafeTransport`. Patch by Cédric Krier.

- bpo-34973: Fixed crash in `bytes()` when the `list` argument is mutated while it is iterated.

- bpo-34876: The lineno and col_offset attributes of the AST for decorated function and class refer now to the position of the corresponding `def`, `async def` and `class` instead of the position of the first decorator. This leads to more correct line reporting in tracing. This is the only case when the position of child AST nodes can precede the position of the parent AST node.

- bpo-34879: Fix a possible null pointer dereference in bytesobject.c. Patch by Zackery Spytz.

- bpo-34784: Fix the implementation of PyStructSequence_NewType in order to create heap allocated StructSequences.

- bpo-34854: Fixed a crash in compiling string annotations containing a lambda with a keyword-only argument that doesn’t have a default value.

- bpo-34850: The compiler now produces a `SyntaxWarning` when identity checks (`is` and `is not`) are used with certain types of literals (e.g. strings, ints). These can often work by accident in CPython, but are not guaranteed by the language spec. The warning advises users to use equality tests (`==` and `!=`) instead.

- bpo-34824: Fix a possible null pointer dereference in Modules/_ssl.c. Patch by Zackery Spytz.

- bpo-30156: The C function `property_descr_get()` uses a «cached» tuple to optimize function calls. But this tuple can be discovered in debug mode with `sys.getobjects()`. Remove the optimization, it’s not really worth it and it causes 3 different crashes last years.

- bpo-34762: Fix contextvars C API to use PyObject* pointer types.

- bpo-34751: The hash function for tuples is now based on xxHash which gives better collision results on (formerly) pathological cases. Additionally, on 64-bit systems it improves tuple hashes in general. Patch by Jeroen Demeyer with substantial contributions by Tim Peters.

- bpo-34588: Fix an off-by-one in the recursive call pruning feature of traceback formatting.

- bpo-34485: On Windows, the LC_CTYPE is now set to the user preferred locale at startup. Previously, the LC_CTYPE locale was «C» at startup, but changed when calling setlocale(LC_CTYPE, «») or setlocale(LC_ALL, «»).

- bpo-34485: Standard streams like sys.stdout now use the «surrogateescape» error handler, instead of «strict», on the POSIX locale (when the C locale is not coerced and the UTF-8 Mode is disabled).

- bpo-34485: Fix the error handler of standard streams like sys.stdout: PYTHONIOENCODING=»:» is now ignored instead of setting the error handler to «strict».

- bpo-34485: Python now gets the locale encoding with C code to initialize the encoding of standard streams like sys.stdout. Moreover, the encoding is now initialized to the Python codec name to get a normalized encoding name and to ensure that the codec is loaded. The change avoids importing _bootlocale and _locale modules at startup by default.

- bpo-34527: On FreeBSD, Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now also forces the ASCII encoding if the LC_CTYPE locale is «POSIX», not only if the LC_CTYPE locale is «C».

- bpo-34527: The UTF-8 Mode is now also enabled by the «POSIX» locale, not only by the «C» locale.

- bpo-34403: On HP-UX with C or POSIX locale, sys.getfilesystemencoding() now returns «ascii» instead of «roman8» (when the UTF-8 Mode is disabled and the C locale is not coerced).

- bpo-34523: The Python filesystem encoding is now read earlier during the Python initialization.

- bpo-12458: Tracebacks show now correct line number for subexpressions in multiline expressions. Tracebacks show now the line number of the first line for multiline expressions instead of the line number of the last subexpression.

- bpo-33451: Close directly executed pyc files before calling `PyEval_EvalCode()`.

- bpo-1617161: The hash of `BuiltinMethodType` instances (methods of built-in classes) now depends on the hash of the identity of __self__ instead of its value. The hash and equality of `ModuleType` and `MethodWrapperType` instances (methods of user-defined classes and some methods of built-in classes like `str.__add__`) now depend on the hash and equality of the identity of __self__ instead of its value. `MethodWrapperType` instances no longer support ordering.

- bpo-33824: Fix «LC_ALL=C python3.7 -V»: reset properly the command line parser when the encoding changes after reading the Python configuration.

- bpo-33803: Fix a crash in hamt.c caused by enabling GC tracking for an object that hadn’t all of its fields set to NULL.

- bpo-33738: Seven macro incompatibilities with the Limited API were fixed, and the macros `PyIter_Check()`, `PyIndex_Check()` and `PyExceptionClass_Name()` were added as functions. A script for automatic macro checks was added.

- bpo-33786: Fix asynchronous generators to handle GeneratorExit in athrow() correctly

- bpo-30167: `PyRun_SimpleFileExFlags` removes `__cached__` from module in addition to `__file__`.

- bpo-33026: Fixed jumping out of «with» block by setting f_lineno.

- bpo-33005: Fix a crash on fork when using a custom memory allocator (ex: using PYTHONMALLOC env var). _PyGILState_Reinit() and _PyInterpreterState_Enable() now use the default RAW memory allocator to allocate a new interpreters mutex on fork.

- bpo-32911: Due to unexpected compatibility issues discovered during downstream beta testing, reverted bpo-29463. `docstring` field is removed from Module, ClassDef, FunctionDef, and AsyncFunctionDef ast nodes which was added in 3.7a1.

- bpo-35847: RISC-V needed the CTYPES_PASS_BY_REF_HACK. Fixes ctypes Structure test_pass_by_value.

- bpo-35813: Shared memory submodule added to multiprocessing to avoid need for serialization between processes

- bpo-35780: Fix lru_cache() errors arising in recursive, reentrant, or multi-threaded code. These errors could result in orphan links and in the cache being trapped in a state with fewer than the specified maximum number of links. Fix handling of negative maxsize which should have been treated as zero. Fix errors in toggling the «full» status flag. Fix misordering of links when errors are encountered. Sync-up the C code and pure Python code for the space saving path in functions with a single positional argument. In this common case, the space overhead of an lru cache entry is reduced by almost half. Fix counting of cache misses. In error cases, the miss count was out of sync with the actual number of times the underlying user function was called.

- bpo-35537: `os.posix_spawn()` and `os.posix_spawnp()` now have a setsid parameter.

- bpo-30561: random.gammavariate(1.0, beta) now computes the same result as random.expovariate(1.0 / beta). This synchronizes the two algorithms and eliminates some idiosyncrasies in the old implementation. It does however produce a difference stream of random variables than it used to.

- bpo-35537: The `subprocess` module can now use the `os.posix_spawn()` function in some cases for better performance.

- bpo-35491: `multiprocessing`: Add `Pool.__repr__()` and enhance `BaseProcess.__repr__()` (add pid and parent pid) to ease debugging. Pool state constant values are now strings instead of integers, for example `RUN` value becomes `'RUN'` instead of `0`.

- bpo-35477: `multiprocessing.Pool.__enter__()` now fails if the pool is not running: `with pool:` fails if used more than once.

- bpo-31446: Copy command line that was passed to CreateProcessW since this function can change the content of the input buffer.

- bpo-35471: Python 2.4 dropped MacOS 9 support. The macpath module was deprecated in Python 3.7. The module is now removed.

- bpo-10496: `check_environ()` of `distutils.utils` now catches `KeyError` on calling `pwd.getpwuid()`: don’t create the `HOME` environment variable in this case.

- bpo-10496: `posixpath.expanduser()` now returns the input path unchanged if the `HOME` environment variable is not set and the current user has no home directory (if the current user identifier doesn’t exist in the password database). This change fix the `site` module if the current user doesn’t exist in the password database (if the user has no home directory).

- bpo-35389: `platform.libc_ver()` now uses `os.confstr('CS_GNU_LIBC_VERSION')` if available and the executable parameter is not set.

- bpo-35310: Fix a bug in `select.select()` where, in some cases, the file descriptor sequences were returned unmodified after a signal interruption, even though the file descriptors might not be ready yet. `select.select()` will now always return empty lists if a timeout has occurred. Patch by Oran Avraham.

- bpo-35066: Previously, calling the strftime() method on a datetime object with a trailing “%” in the format string would result in an exception. However, this only occurred when the datetime C module was being used; the python implementation did not match this behavior. Datetime is now PEP-399 compliant, and will not throw an exception on a trailing “%”.

- bpo-35345: The function `platform.popen` has been removed, it was deprecated since Python 3.3: use `os.popen()` instead.

- bpo-35344: On macOS, `platform.platform()` now uses `platform.mac_ver()`, if it returns a non-empty release string, to get the macOS version rather than the darwin version.

An initial name can also be set using the new `name` keyword argument to `asyncio.create_task()` or the `create_task()` method of the event loop. If no initial name is set, the default Task implementation generates a name like `Task-1` using a monotonic counter.

- bpo-34213: Allow frozen dataclasses to have a field named «object». Previously this conflicted with an internal use of «object».

- bpo-34052: `sqlite3.Connection.create_aggregate()`, `sqlite3.Connection.create_function()`, `sqlite3.Connection.set_authorizer()`, `sqlite3.Connection.set_progress_handler()` methods raises TypeError when unhashable objects are passed as callable. These methods now don’t pass such objects to SQLite API. Previous behavior could lead to segfaults. Patch by Sergey Fedoseev.

- bpo-34197: Attributes skipinitialspace, doublequote and strict of the dialect attribute of the `csv` reader are now `bool` instances instead of integers 0 or 1.

- bpo-32788: Errors other than `TypeError` raised in methods `__adapt__()` and `__conform__()` in the `sqlite3` module are now propagated to the user.

- bpo-21446: The `reload` fixer now uses `importlib.reload()` instead of deprecated `imp.reload()`.

- bpo-940286: pydoc’s `Helper.showtopic()` method now prints the cross references of a topic correctly.

- bpo-34164: `base64.b32decode()` could raise UnboundLocalError or OverflowError for incorrect padding. Now it always raises `base64.Error` in these cases.

- bpo-33729: Fixed issues with arguments parsing in `hashlib`.

- bpo-34097: ZipFile can zip files older than 1980-01-01 and newer than 2107-12-31 using a new `strict_timestamps` parameter at the cost of setting the timestamp to the limit.

- bpo-34108: Remove extraneous CR in 2to3 refactor.

- bpo-34070: Make sure to only check if the handle is a tty, when opening a file with `buffering=-1`.

- bpo-33967: functools.singledispatch now raises TypeError instead of IndexError when no positional arguments are passed.

- bpo-34041: Add the parameter deterministic to the `sqlite3.Connection.create_function()` method. Patch by Sergey Fedoseev.

- bpo-34056: Ensure the loader shim created by `imp.load_module` always returns bytes from its `get_data()` function. This fixes using `imp.load_module` with PEP 552 hash-based pycs.

- bpo-34054: The multiprocessing module now uses the monotonic clock `time.monotonic()` instead of the system clock `time.time()` to implement timeout.

- bpo-34043: Optimize tarfile uncompress performance about 15% when gzip is used.

- bpo-34044: `subprocess.Popen` now copies the startupinfo argument to leave it unchanged: it will modify the copy, so that the same `STARTUPINFO` object can be used multiple times.

- bpo-34010: Fixed a performance regression for reading streams with tarfile. The buffered read should use a list, instead of appending to a bytes object.

- bpo-34019: webbrowser: Correct the arguments passed to Opera Browser when opening a new URL using the `webbrowser` module. Patch by Bumsik Kim.

- bpo-34003: csv.DictReader now creates dicts instead of OrderedDicts. Patch by Michael Selik.

- bpo-33978: Closed existing logging handlers before reconfiguration via fileConfig and dictConfig. Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.

- bpo-14117: Make minor tweaks to turtledemo. The “wikipedia” example is now “rosette”, describing what it draws. The “penrose” print output is reduced. The’1024” output of “tree” is eliminated.

- bpo-33929: multiprocessing: Fix a race condition in Popen of multiprocessing.popen_spawn_win32. The child process now duplicates the read end of pipe instead of «stealing» it. Previously, the read end of pipe was «stolen» by the child process, but it leaked a handle if the child process had been terminated before it could steal the handle from the parent process.

- bpo-33899: Tokenize module now implicitly emits a NEWLINE when provided with input that does not have a trailing new line. This behavior now matches what the C tokenizer does internally. Contributed by Ammar Askar.

- bpo-33897: Added a “force” keyword argument to logging.basicConfig().

- bpo-33695: `shutil.copytree()` uses `os.scandir()` function and all copy functions depending from it use cached `os.stat()` values. The speedup for copying a directory with 8000 files is around +9% on Linux, +20% on Windows and + 30% on a Windows SMB share. Also the number of `os.stat()` syscalls is reduced by 38% making `shutil.copytree()` especially faster on network filesystems. (Contributed by Giampaolo Rodola” in bpo-33695.)

- bpo-33916: bz2 and lzma: When Decompressor.__init__() is called twice, free the old lock to not leak memory.

- bpo-33721: `os.path` functions that return a boolean result like `exists()`, `lexists()`, `isdir()`, `isfile()`, `islink()`, and `ismount()`, and `pathlib.Path` methods that return a boolean result like `exists()`, `is_dir()`, `is_file()`, `is_mount()`, `is_symlink()`, `is_block_device()`, `is_char_device()`, `is_fifo()`, `is_socket()` now return `False` instead of raising `ValueError` or its subclasses `UnicodeEncodeError` and `UnicodeDecodeError` for paths that contain characters or bytes unrepresentable at the OS level.

- bpo-26544: Fixed implementation of `platform.libc_ver()`. It almost always returned version “2.9” for glibc.

- bpo-33843: Remove deprecated `cgi.escape`, `cgi.parse_qs` and `cgi.parse_qsl`.

- bpo-33842: Remove `tarfile.filemode` which is deprecated since Python 3.3.

- bpo-33792: Add asyncio.WindowsSelectorEventLoopPolicy and asyncio.WindowsProactorEventLoopPolicy.

- bpo-33274: W3C DOM Level 1 specifies return value of Element.removeAttributeNode() as «The Attr node that was removed.» xml.dom.minidom now complies with this requirement.

- bpo-33778: Update `unicodedata`’s database to Unicode version 11.0.0.

- bpo-33165: Added a stacklevel parameter to logging calls to allow use of wrapper/helper functions for logging APIs.

- bpo-33770: improve base64 exception message for encoded inputs of invalid length

- bpo-33769: asyncio/start_tls: Fix error message; cancel callbacks in case of an unhandled error; mark SSLTransport as closed if it is aborted.

- bpo-33767: The concatenation (`+`) and repetition (`*`) sequence operations now raise `TypeError` instead of `SystemError` when performed on `mmap.mmap` objects. Patch by Zackery Spytz.

- bpo-33734: asyncio/ssl: Fix AttributeError, increase default handshake timeout

- bpo-31014: Fixed creating a controller for `webbrowser` when a user specifies a path to an entry in the BROWSER environment variable. Based on patch by John Still.

- bpo-2504: Add gettext.pgettext() and variants.

- bpo-33197: Add description property for _ParameterKind

- bpo-32684: Fix gather to propagate cancellation of itself even with return_exceptions.

- bpo-33654: Support protocol type switching in SSLTransport.set_protocol().

- bpo-33674: Pause the transport as early as possible to further reduce the risk of data_received() being called before connection_made().

- bpo-33671: `shutil.copyfile()`, `shutil.copy()`, `shutil.copy2()`, `shutil.copytree()` and `shutil.move()` use platform-specific fast-copy syscalls on Linux and macOS in order to copy the file more efficiently. On Windows `shutil.copyfile()` uses a bigger default buffer size (1 MiB instead of 16 KiB) and a `memoryview()`-based variant of `shutil.copyfileobj()` is used. The speedup for copying a 512MiB file is about +26% on Linux, +50% on macOS and +40% on Windows. Also, much less CPU cycles are consumed. (Contributed by Giampaolo Rodola” in bpo-25427.)

- bpo-33674: Fix a race condition in SSLProtocol.connection_made() of asyncio.sslproto: start immediately the handshake instead of using call_soon(). Previously, data_received() could be called before the handshake started, causing the handshake to hang or fail.

- bpo-28556: Do not simplify arguments to `typing.Union`. Now `Union[Manager, Employee]` is not simplified to `Employee` at runtime. Such simplification previously caused several bugs and limited possibilities for introspection.

- bpo-12486: `tokenize.generate_tokens()` is now documented as a public API to tokenize unicode strings. It was previously present but undocumented.

- bpo-33540: Add a new `block_on_close` class attribute to `ForkingMixIn` and `ThreadingMixIn` classes of `socketserver`.

- bpo-33548: tempfile._candidate_tempdir_list should consider common TEMP locations

- bpo-33109: argparse subparsers are once again not required by default, reverting the change in behavior introduced by bpo-26510 in 3.7.0a2.

- bpo-33541: Remove unused private method `_strptime.LocaleTime.__pad` (a.k.a. `_LocaleTime__pad`).

- bpo-33536: dataclasses.make_dataclass now checks for invalid field names and duplicate fields. Also, added a check for invalid field specifications.

- bpo-29235: The `cProfile.Profile` class can now be used as a context manager. Patch by Scott Sanderson.

- bpo-33495: Change dataclasses.Fields repr to use the repr of each of its members, instead of str. This makes it more clear what each field actually represents. This is especially true for the “type” member.

- bpo-26103: Correct `inspect.isdatadescriptor` to look for `__set__` or `__delete__`. Patch by Aaron Hall.

- bpo-29209: Removed the `doctype()` method and the html parameter of the constructor of `XMLParser`. The `doctype()` method defined in a subclass will no longer be called. Deprecated methods `getchildren()` and `getiterator()` in the `ElementTree` module emit now a `DeprecationWarning` instead of `PendingDeprecationWarning`.

- bpo-33453: Fix dataclasses to work if using literal string type annotations or if using PEP 563 «Postponed Evaluation of Annotations». Only specific string prefixes are detected for both ClassVar («ClassVar» and «typing.ClassVar») and InitVar («InitVar» and «dataclasses.InitVar»).

- bpo-28556: Minor fixes in typing module: add annotations to `NamedTuple.__new__`, pass `*args` and `**kwds` in `Generic.__new__`. Original PRs by Paulius Šarka and Chad Dombrova.

- bpo-33144: `random.Random()` and its subclassing mechanism got optimized to check only once at class/subclass instantiation time whether its `getrandbits()` method can be relied on by other methods, including `randrange()`, for the generation of arbitrarily large random integers. Patch by Wolfgang Maier.

- bpo-33185: Fixed regression when running pydoc with the `-m` switch. (The regression was introduced in 3.7.0b3 by the resolution of bpo-33053)

- bpo-32713: Fixed tarfile.itn handling of out-of-bounds float values. Patch by Joffrey Fuhrer.

- bpo-32257: The ssl module now contains OP_NO_RENEGOTIATION constant, available with OpenSSL 1.1.0h or 1.1.1.

- bpo-32951: Direct instantiation of SSLSocket and SSLObject objects is now prohibited. The constructors were never documented, tested, or designed as public constructors. Users were suppose to use ssl.wrap_socket() or SSLContext.

- bpo-32929: Remove the tri-state parameter «hash», and add the boolean «unsafe_hash». If unsafe_hash is True, add a __hash__ function, but if a __hash__ exists, raise TypeError. If unsafe_hash is False, add a __hash__ based on the values of eq= and frozen=. The unsafe_hash=False behavior is the same as the old hash=None behavior. unsafe_hash=False is the default, just as hash=None used to be.

- bpo-32947: Add OP_ENABLE_MIDDLEBOX_COMPAT and test workaround for TLSv1.3 for future compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1.

- bpo-31333: `_abc` module is added. It is a speedup module with C implementations for various functions and methods in `abc`. Creating an ABC subclass and calling `isinstance` or `issubclass` with an ABC subclass are up to 1.5x faster. In addition, this makes Python start-up up to 10% faster.

  Tenga en cuenta que la nueva implementación oculta el registro interno y los cachés, previamente accesibles a través de los atributos privados `_abc_registry`, `_abc_cache` y `_abc_negative_cache`. Hay tres métodos auxiliares de depuración que se pueden utilizar en lugar de `_dump_registry`, `_abc_registry_clear` y `_abc_caches_clear`.

- bpo-35772: Fix sparse file tests of test_tarfile on ppc64 with the tmpfs filesystem. Fix the function testing if the filesystem supports sparse files: create a file which contains data and «holes», instead of creating a file which contains no data. tmpfs effective block size is a page size (tmpfs lives in the page cache). RHEL uses 64 KiB pages on aarch64, ppc64, ppc64le, only s390x and x86_64 use 4 KiB pages, whereas the test punch holes of 4 KiB.

- bpo-35045: Make ssl tests less strict and also accept TLSv1 as system default. The changes unbreaks test_min_max_version on Fedora 29.

- bpo-31731: Fix a race condition in `check_interrupted_write()` of test_io: create directly the thread with SIGALRM signal blocked, rather than blocking the signal later from the thread. Previously, it was possible that the thread gets the signal before the signal is blocked.

- bpo-35424: Fix test_multiprocessing_main_handling: use `multiprocessing.Pool` with a context manager and then explicitly join the pool.

- bpo-35519: Rename `test.bisect` module to `test.bisect_cmd` to avoid conflict with `bisect` module when running directly a test like `./python Lib/test/test_xmlrpc.py`.

- bpo-34587: test_socket: Remove RDSTest.testCongestion(). The test tries to fill the receiver’s socket buffer and expects an error. But the RDS protocol doesn’t require that. Moreover, the Linux implementation of RDS expects that the producer of the messages reduces its rate, it’s not the role of the receiver to trigger an error. The test fails on Fedora 28 by design, so just remove it.

- bpo-34661: Fix test_shutil if unzip doesn’t support -t.

DirEntry.is_dir can also throw this exception so _RecursiveWildcardSelector._iterate_directories was also extended with the same error ignoring pattern.

- bpo-13631: The .editrc file in user’s home directory is now processed correctly during the readline initialization through editline emulation on macOS.

- bpo-33184: Update macOS installer build to use OpenSSL 1.1.0h.

- bpo-32726: Build and link with private copy of Tcl/Tk 8.6 for the macOS 10.6+ installer. The 10.9+ installer variant already does this. This means that the Python 3.7 provided by the python.org macOS installers no longer need or use any external versions of Tcl/Tk, either system-provided or user-installed, such as ActiveTcl.

- bpo-32901: Update macOS 10.9+ installer to Tcl/Tk 8.6.8.

- bpo-31903: In `_scproxy`, drop the GIL when calling into `SystemConfiguration` to avoid deadlocks.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-35770: IDLE macosx deletes Options => Configure IDLE. It previously deleted Window => Zoom Height by mistake. (Zoom Height is now on the Options menu). On Mac, the settings dialog is accessed via Preferences on the IDLE menu.

- bpo-35769: Change IDLE’s new file name from “Untitled” to “untitled”

- bpo-35202: Remove unused imports from lib/idlelib

- bpo-33000: Document that IDLE’s shell has no line limit. A program that runs indefinitely can overfill memory.

- bpo-23220: Explain how IDLE’s Shell displays output.

- bpo-35099: Improve the doc about IDLE running user code. The section is renamed from «IDLE – console differences» is renamed «Running user code». It mostly covers the implications of using custom sys.stdxxx objects.

- bpo-35097: Add IDLE doc subsection explaining editor windows. Topics include opening, title and status bar, .py* extension, and running.

- bpo-35093: Document the IDLE document viewer in the IDLE doc. Add a paragraph in «Help and preferences», «Help sources» subsection.

- bpo-35088: Update idlelib.help.copy_string docstring. We now use git and backporting instead of hg and forward merging.

- bpo-35087: Update idlelib help files for the current doc build. The main change is the elimination of chapter-section numbers.

- bpo-34548: Use configured color theme for read-only text views.

- bpo-1529353: Enable «squeezing» of long outputs in the shell, to avoid performance degradation and to clean up the history without losing it. Squeezed outputs may be copied, viewed in a separate window, and «unsqueezed».

- bpo-34275: Make IDLE calltips always visible on Mac. Some MacOS-tk combinations need .update_idletasks(). Patch by Kevin Walzer.

- bpo-34120: Fix unresponsiveness after closing certain windows and dialogs.

- bpo-33975: Avoid small type when running htests. Since part of the purpose of human-viewed tests is to determine that widgets look right, it is important that they look the same for testing as when running IDLE.

- bpo-33905: Add test for idlelib.stackview.StackBrowser.

- bpo-33924: Change mainmenu.menudefs key “windows” to “window”. Every other menudef key is lowercase version of main menu entry.

- bpo-33906: Rename idlelib.windows as window Match Window on the main menu and remove last plural module name.

- bpo-33917: Fix and document idlelib/idle_test/template.py. The revised file compiles, runs, and tests OK. idle_test/README.txt explains how to use it to create new IDLE test files.

- bpo-33904: IDLE: In rstrip, rename class RstripExtension as Rstrip

- bpo-33907: For consistency and clarity, rename an IDLE module and classes. Module calltips and its class CallTips are now calltip and Calltip. In module calltip_w, class CallTip is now CalltipWindow.

- bpo-33856: Add «help» in the welcome message of IDLE

- bpo-33839: IDLE: refactor ToolTip and CallTip and add documentation and tests

- bpo-33855: Minimally test all IDLE modules. Add missing files, import module, instantiate classes, and check coverage. Check existing files.

- bpo-33656: On Windows, add API call saying that tk scales for DPI. On Windows 8.1+ or 10, with DPI compatibility properties of the Python binary unchanged, and a monitor resolution greater than 96 DPI, this should make text and lines sharper. It should otherwise have no effect.

- bpo-33768: Clicking on a context line moves that line to the top of the editor window.

- bpo-33763: IDLE: Use read-only text widget for code context instead of label widget.

- bpo-33664: Scroll IDLE editor text by lines. Previously, the mouse wheel and scrollbar slider moved text by a fixed number of pixels, resulting in partial lines at the top of the editor box. The change also applies to the shell and grep output windows, but not to read-only text views.

- bpo-33679: Enable theme-specific color configuration for Code Context. Use the Highlights tab to see the setting for built-in themes or add settings to custom themes.

- bpo-33204: IDLE: consistently color invalid string prefixes. A “u” string prefix cannot be paired with either “r” or “f”. Consistently color as much of the prefix, starting at the right, as is valid. Revise and extend colorizer test.

- bpo-32984: Set `__file__` while running a startup file. Like Python, IDLE optionally runs one startup file in the Shell window before presenting the first interactive input prompt. For IDLE, `-s` runs a file named in environmental variable `IDLESTARTUP` or `PYTHONSTARTUP`; `-r file` runs `file`. Python sets `__file__` to the startup file name before running the file and unsets it before the first prompt. IDLE now does the same when run normally, without the `-n` option.

- bpo-32940: Simplify and rename StringTranslatePseudoMapping in pyparse.

- bpo-32916: Change `str` to `code` in pyparse.

- bpo-32905: Remove unused code in pyparse module.

- bpo-32874: Add tests for pyparse.

- bpo-32837: Using the system and place-dependent default encoding for open() is a bad idea for IDLE’s system and location-independent files.

- bpo-32826: Add «encoding=utf-8» to open() in IDLE’s test_help_about. GUI test test_file_buttons() only looks at initial ascii-only lines, but failed on systems where open() defaults to “ascii” because readline() internally reads and decodes far enough ahead to encounter a non-ascii character in CREDITS.txt.

- bpo-32831: Add docstrings and tests for codecontext.

- bpo-32765: Update configdialog General tab docstring to add new widgets to the widget list.

- bpo-32500: Fixed error messages for `PySequence_Size()`, `PySequence_GetItem()`, `PySequence_SetItem()` and `PySequence_DelItem()` called with a mapping and `PyMapping_Size()` called with a sequence.

- bpo-33818: `PyExceptionClass_Name()` will now return `const char *` instead of `char *`.

- bpo-33042: Embedding applications may once again call PySys_ResetWarnOptions, PySys_AddWarnOption, and PySys_AddXOption prior to calling Py_Initialize.

- bpo-32374: Document that m_traverse for multi-phase initialized modules can be called with m_state=NULL, and add a sanity check

- bpo-30863: `PyUnicode_AsWideChar()` and `PyUnicode_AsWideCharString()` no longer cache the `wchar_t*` representation of string objects.

- bpo-33256: Fix display of `<module>` call in the html produced by `cgitb.html()`. Patch by Stéphane Blondon.

- bpo-33185: Fixed regression when running pydoc with the `-m` switch. (The regression was introduced in 3.7.0b3 by the resolution of bpo-33053) This fix also changed pydoc to add `os.getcwd()` to `sys.path` when necessary, rather than adding `"."`.

- bpo-33169: Delete entries of `None` in `sys.path_importer_cache` when `importlib.machinery.invalidate_caches()` is called.

- bpo-33217: Deprecate looking up non-Enum objects in Enum classes and Enum members (will raise `TypeError` in 3.8+).

- bpo-33203: `random.Random.choice()` now raises `IndexError` for empty sequences consistently even when called from subclasses without a `getrandbits()` implementation.

- bpo-33224: Update difflib.mdiff() for PEP 479. Convert an uncaught StopIteration in a generator into a return-statement.

- bpo-33204: IDLE: consistently color invalid string prefixes. A “u” string prefix cannot be paired with either “r” or “f”. Consistently color as much of the prefix, starting at the right, as is valid. Revise and extend colorizer test.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-33189: pygettext.py now recognizes only literal strings as docstrings and translatable strings, and rejects bytes literals and f-string expressions.

- bpo-31920: Fixed handling directories as arguments in the `pygettext` script. Based on patch by Oleg Krasnikov.

- bpo-29673: Fix pystackv and pystack gdbinit macros.

## Python 3.7.0 beta 3

Release date: 2018-03-29

### Seguridad

- bpo-33136: Harden ssl module against LibreSSL CVE-2018-8970. X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host() is called with an explicit namelen. A new test ensures that NULL bytes are not allowed.

- bpo-33001: Minimal fix to prevent buffer overrun in os.symlink on Windows

- bpo-32981: Regexes in difflib and poplib were vulnerable to catastrophic backtracking. These regexes formed potential DOS vectors (REDOS). They have been refactored. This resolves CVE-2018-1060 and CVE-2018-1061. Patch by Jamie Davis.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-33053: When using the -m switch, sys.path[0] is now explicitly expanded as the starting working directory, rather than being left as the empty path (which allows imports from the current working directory at the time of the import)

- bpo-33018: Improve consistency of errors raised by `issubclass()` when called with a non-class and an abstract base class as the first and second arguments, respectively. Patch by Josh Bronson.

- bpo-33041: Fixed jumping when the function contains an `async for` loop.

- bpo-33026: Fixed jumping out of «with» block by setting f_lineno.

- bpo-33096: Allow ttk.Treeview.insert to insert iid that has a false boolean value. Note iid=0 and iid=False would be same. Patch by Garvit Khatri.

- bpo-32873: Treat type variables and special typing forms as immutable by copy and pickle. This fixes several minor issues and inconsistencies, and improves backwards compatibility with Python 3.6.

- bpo-33134: When computing dataclass’s __hash__, use the lookup table to contain the function which returns the __hash__ value. This is an improvement over looking up a string, and then testing that string to see what to do.

- bpo-33127: The ssl module now compiles with LibreSSL 2.7.1.

- bpo-32505: Raise TypeError if a member variable of a dataclass is of type Field, but doesn’t have a type annotation.

- bpo-33078: Fix the failure on OSX caused by the tests relying on sem_getvalue

- bpo-33116: Add “Field” to dataclasses.__all__.

- bpo-32896: Fix an error where subclassing a dataclass with a field that uses a default_factory would generate an incorrect class.

- bpo-33100: Dataclasses: If a field has a default value that’s a MemberDescriptorType, then it’s from that field being in __slots__, not an actual default value.

- bpo-32953: If a non-dataclass inherits from a frozen dataclass, allow attributes to be added to the derived class. Only attributes from the frozen dataclass cannot be assigned to. Require all dataclasses in a hierarchy to be either all frozen or all non-frozen.

- bpo-33061: Add missing `NoReturn` to `__all__` in typing.py

- bpo-33078: Fix the size handling in multiprocessing.Queue when a pickling error occurs.

- bpo-33056: FIX properly close leaking fds in concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor.

- bpo-33021: Release the GIL during fstat() calls, avoiding hang of all threads when calling mmap.mmap(), os.urandom(), and random.seed(). Patch by Nir Soffer.

- bpo-31804: Avoid failing in multiprocessing.Process if the standard streams are closed or None at exit.

- bpo-33037: Skip sending/receiving data after SSL transport closing.

- bpo-27683: Fix a regression in `ipaddress` that result of `hosts()` is empty when the network is constructed by a tuple containing an integer mask and only 1 bit left for addresses.

- bpo-32999: Fix C implementation of `ABC.__subclasscheck__(cls, subclass)` crashed when `subclass` is not a type object.

- bpo-32857: In `tkinter`, `after_cancel(None)` now raises a `ValueError` instead of canceling the first scheduled function. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-31639: http.server now exposes a ThreadedHTTPServer class and uses it when the module is run with `-m` to cope with web browsers pre-opening sockets.

- bpo-27645: `sqlite3.Connection` now exposes a `backup` method, if the underlying SQLite library is at version 3.6.11 or higher. Patch by Lele Gaifax.

### Documentación

- bpo-33126: Document PyBuffer_ToContiguous().

- bpo-27212: Modify documentation for the `islice()` recipe to consume initial values up to the start index.

- bpo-28247: Update `zipapp` documentation to describe how to make standalone applications.

- bpo-18802: Documentation changes for ipaddress. Patch by Jon Foster and Berker Peksag.

- bpo-33016: Fix potential use of uninitialized memory in nt._getfinalpathname

- bpo-32903: Fix a memory leak in os.chdir() on Windows if the current directory is set to a UNC path.

### Mac OS

- bpo-32726: Build and link with private copy of Tcl/Tk 8.6 for the macOS 10.6+ installer. The 10.9+ installer variant already does this. This means that the Python 3.7 provided by the python.org macOS installers no longer need or use any external versions of Tcl/Tk, either system-provided or user-installed, such as ActiveTcl.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-32984: Set `__file__` while running a startup file. Like Python, IDLE optionally runs one startup file in the Shell window before presenting the first interactive input prompt. For IDLE, `-s` runs a file named in environmental variable `IDLESTARTUP` or `PYTHONSTARTUP`; `-r file` runs `file`. Python sets `__file__` to the startup file name before running the file and unsets it before the first prompt. IDLE now does the same when run normally, without the `-n` option.

- bpo-32940: Simplify and rename StringTranslatePseudoMapping in pyparse.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-32885: Add an `-n` flag for `Tools/scripts/pathfix.py` to disable automatic backup creation (files with `~` suffix).

### API C

- bpo-33042: Embedding applications may once again call PySys_ResetWarnOptions, PySys_AddWarnOption, and PySys_AddXOption prior to calling Py_Initialize.

- bpo-32374: Document that m_traverse for multi-phase initialized modules can be called with m_state=NULL, and add a sanity check

## Python 3.7.0 beta 2

Release date: 2018-02-27

### Seguridad

- bpo-28414: The ssl module now allows users to perform their own IDN en/decoding when using SNI.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-32889: Update Valgrind suppression list to account for the rename of `Py_ADDRESS_IN_RANG` to `address_in_range`.

- bpo-31356: Remove the new API added in bpo-31356 (gc.ensure_disabled() context manager).

- bpo-32305: For namespace packages, ensure that both `__file__` and `__spec__.origin` are set to None.

- bpo-32303: Make sure `__spec__.loader` matches `__loader__` for namespace packages.

- bpo-32711: Fix the warning messages for Python/ast_unparse.c. Patch by Stéphane Wirtel

- bpo-32583: Fix possible crashing in builtin Unicode decoders caused by write out-of-bound errors when using customized decode error handlers.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-32960: For dataclasses, disallow inheriting frozen from non-frozen classes, and also disallow inheriting non-frozen from frozen classes. This restriction will be relaxed at a future date.

- bpo-32713: Fixed tarfile.itn handling of out-of-bounds float values. Patch by Joffrey Fuhrer.

- bpo-32951: Direct instantiation of SSLSocket and SSLObject objects is now prohibited. The constructors were never documented, tested, or designed as public constructors. Users were suppose to use ssl.wrap_socket() or SSLContext.

- bpo-32929: Remove the tri-state parameter «hash», and add the boolean «unsafe_hash». If unsafe_hash is True, add a __hash__ function, but if a __hash__ exists, raise TypeError. If unsafe_hash is False, add a __hash__ based on the values of eq= and frozen=. The unsafe_hash=False behavior is the same as the old hash=None behavior. unsafe_hash=False is the default, just as hash=None used to be.

- bpo-32947: Add OP_ENABLE_MIDDLEBOX_COMPAT and test workaround for TLSv1.3 for future compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1.

- bpo-30622: The ssl module now detects missing NPN support in LibreSSL.

- bpo-32922: dbm.open() now encodes filename with the filesystem encoding rather than default encoding.

- bpo-32859: In `os.dup2`, don’t check every call whether the `dup3` syscall exists or not.

- bpo-32556: nt._getfinalpathname, nt._getvolumepathname and nt._getdiskusage now correctly convert from bytes.

- bpo-25988: Emit a `DeprecationWarning` when using or importing an ABC directly from `collections` rather than from `collections.abc`.

- bpo-21060: Rewrite confusing message from setup.py upload from «No dist file created in earlier command» to the more helpful «Must create and upload files in one command».

- bpo-32852: Make sure sys.argv remains as a list when running trace.

- bpo-31333: `_abc` module is added. It is a speedup module with C implementations for various functions and methods in `abc`. Creating an ABC subclass and calling `isinstance` or `issubclass` with an ABC subclass are up to 1.5x faster. In addition, this makes Python start-up up to 10% faster. Note that the new implementation hides internal registry and caches, previously accessible via private attributes `_abc_registry`, `_abc_cache`, and `_abc_negative_cache`. There are three debugging helper methods that can be used instead `_dump_registry`, `_abc_registry_clear`, and `_abc_caches_clear`.

- bpo-32841: Fixed `asyncio.Condition` issue which silently ignored cancellation after notifying and cancelling a conditional lock. Patch by Bar Harel.

- bpo-32819: ssl.match_hostname() has been simplified and no longer depends on re and ipaddress module for wildcard and IP addresses. Error reporting for invalid wildcards has been improved.

- bpo-32394: socket: Remove TCP_FASTOPEN,TCP_KEEPCNT,TCP_KEEPIDLE,TCP_KEEPINTVL flags on older version Windows during run-time.

- bpo-31787: Fixed refleaks of `__init__()` methods in various modules. (Contributed by Oren Milman)

- bpo-30157: Fixed guessing quote and delimiter in csv.Sniffer.sniff() when only the last field is quoted. Patch by Jake Davis.

- bpo-32792: collections.ChainMap() preserves the order of the underlying mappings.

- bpo-32775: `fnmatch.translate()` no longer produces patterns which contain set operations. Sets starting with “[” or containing “–”, “&&”, “~~” or “||” will be interpreted differently in regular expressions in future versions. Currently they emit warnings. fnmatch.translate() now avoids producing patterns containing such sets by accident.

- bpo-32622: Implement native fast sendfile for Windows proactor event loop.

- bpo-32777: Fix a rare but potential pre-exec child process deadlock in subprocess on POSIX systems when marking file descriptors inheritable on exec in the child process. This bug appears to have been introduced in 3.4.

- bpo-32647: The ctypes module used to depend on indirect linking for dlopen. The shared extension is now explicitly linked against libdl on platforms with dl.

- bpo-32741: Implement `asyncio.TimerHandle.when()` method.

- bpo-32691: Use mod_spec.parent when running modules with pdb

- bpo-32734: Fixed `asyncio.Lock()` safety issue which allowed acquiring and locking the same lock multiple times, without it being free. Patch by Bar Harel.

- bpo-32727: Do not include name field in SMTP envelope from address. Patch by Stéphane Wirtel

- bpo-31453: Add TLSVersion constants and SSLContext.maximum_version / minimum_version attributes. The new API wraps OpenSSL 1.1 https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.1.0/ssl/SSL_CTX_set_min_proto_version.html feature.

- bpo-24334: Internal implementation details of ssl module were cleaned up. The SSLSocket has one less layer of indirection. Owner and session information are now handled by the SSLSocket and SSLObject constructor. Channel binding implementation has been simplified.

- bpo-31848: Fix the error handling in Aifc_read.initfp() when the SSND chunk is not found. Patch by Zackery Spytz.

- bpo-32585: Add Ttk spinbox widget to `tkinter.ttk`. Patch by Alan D Moore.

- bpo-32221: Various functions returning tuple containing IPv6 addresses now omit `%scope` part since the same information is already encoded in scopeid tuple item. Especially this speeds up `socket.recvfrom()` when it receives multicast packet since useless resolving of network interface name is omitted.

- bpo-30693: The TarFile class now recurses directories in a reproducible way.

- bpo-30693: The ZipFile class now recurses directories in a reproducible way.

### Documentación

- bpo-28124: The ssl module function ssl.wrap_socket() has been de-emphasized and deprecated in favor of the more secure and efficient SSLContext.wrap_socket() method.

- bpo-17232: Clarify docs for -O and -OO. Patch by Terry Reedy.

- bpo-32436: Add documentation for the contextvars module (PEP 567).

- bpo-32800: Update link to w3c doc for xml default namespaces.

- bpo-11015: Update `test.support` documentation.

- bpo-8722: Document `__getattr__()` behavior when property `get()` method raises `AttributeError`.

- bpo-32614: Modify RE examples in documentation to use raw strings to prevent `DeprecationWarning` and add text to REGEX HOWTO to highlight the deprecation.

- bpo-31972: Improve docstrings for `pathlib.PurePath` subclasses.

### Pruebas

- bpo-31809: Add tests to verify connection with secp ECDH curves.

### Construir

- bpo-32898: Fix the python debug build when using COUNT_ALLOCS.

### Ventanas

- bpo-32901: Update Tcl and Tk versions to 8.6.8

- bpo-31966: Fixed WindowsConsoleIO.write() for writing empty data.

- bpo-32409: Ensures activate.bat can handle Unicode contents.

- bpo-32457: Improves handling of denormalized executable path when launching Python.

- bpo-32370: Use the correct encoding for ipconfig output in the uuid module. Patch by Segev Finer.

- bpo-29248: Fix `os.readlink()` on Windows, which was mistakenly treating the `PrintNameOffset` field of the reparse data buffer as a number of characters instead of bytes. Patch by Craig Holmquist and SSE4.

### Mac OS

- bpo-32901: Update macOS 10.9+ installer to Tcl/Tk 8.6.8.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-32916: Change `str` to `code` in pyparse.

- bpo-32905: Remove unused code in pyparse module.

- bpo-32874: Add tests for pyparse.

- bpo-32837: Using the system and place-dependent default encoding for open() is a bad idea for IDLE’s system and location-independent files.

- bpo-32826: Add «encoding=utf-8» to open() in IDLE’s test_help_about. GUI test test_file_buttons() only looks at initial ascii-only lines, but failed on systems where open() defaults to “ascii” because readline() internally reads and decodes far enough ahead to encounter a non-ascii character in CREDITS.txt.

- bpo-32765: Update configdialog General tab docstring to add new widgets to the widget list.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-32222: Fix pygettext not extracting docstrings for functions with type annotated arguments. Patch by Toby Harradine.

## Python 3.7.0 beta 1

Release date: 2018-01-30

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-32703: Fix coroutine’s ResourceWarning when there’s an active error set when it’s being finalized.

- bpo-32650: Pdb and other debuggers dependent on bdb.py will correctly step over (next command) native coroutines. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-28685: Optimize list.sort() and sorted() by using type specialized comparisons when possible.

- bpo-32685: Improve suggestion when the Python 2 form of print statement is either present on the same line as the header of a compound statement or else terminated by a semi-colon instead of a newline. Patch by Nitish Chandra.

- bpo-32697: Python now explicitly preserves the definition order of keyword-only parameters. It’s always preserved their order, but this behavior was never guaranteed before; this behavior is now guaranteed and tested.

- bpo-32690: The locals() dictionary now displays in the lexical order that variables were defined. Previously, the order was reversed.

- bpo-32677: Add `.isascii()` method to `str`, `bytes` and `bytearray`. It can be used to test that string contains only ASCII characters.

- bpo-32670: Enforce PEP 479 for all code. This means that manually raising a StopIteration exception from a generator is prohibited for all code, regardless of whether “from __future__ import generator_stop” was used or not.

- bpo-32591: Added built-in support for tracking the origin of coroutine objects; see sys.set_coroutine_origin_tracking_depth and CoroutineType.cr_origin. This replaces the asyncio debug mode’s use of coroutine wrapping for native coroutine objects.

- bpo-31368: Expose preadv and pwritev system calls in the os module. Patch by Pablo Galindo

- bpo-32544: `hasattr(obj, name)` and `getattr(obj, name, default)` are about 4 times faster than before when `name` is not found and `obj` doesn’t override `__getattr__` or `__getattribute__`.

- bpo-26163: Improved frozenset() hash to create more distinct hash values when faced with datasets containing many similar values.

- bpo-32550: Remove the STORE_ANNOTATION bytecode.

- bpo-20104: Expose posix_spawn as a low level API in the os module. (removed before 3.7.0rc1)

- bpo-24340: Fixed estimation of the code stack size.

- bpo-32436: Implement PEP 567 Context Variables.

- bpo-18533: `repr()` on a dict containing its own `values()` or `items()` no longer raises `RecursionError`; OrderedDict similarly. Instead, use `...`, as for other recursive structures. Patch by Ben North.

- bpo-20891: Py_Initialize() now creates the GIL. The GIL is no longer created «on demand» to fix a race condition when PyGILState_Ensure() is called in a non-Python thread.

- bpo-32028: Leading whitespace is now correctly ignored when generating suggestions for converting Py2 print statements to Py3 builtin print function calls. Patch by Sanyam Khurana.

- bpo-31179: Make dict.copy() up to 5.5 times faster.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-25988: Deprecate exposing the contents of collections.abc in the regular collections module.

- bpo-31429: The default cipher suite selection of the ssl module now uses a blacklist approach rather than a hard-coded whitelist. Python no longer re-enables ciphers that have been blocked by OpenSSL security update. Default cipher suite selection can be configured on compile time.

- bpo-30306: contextlib.contextmanager now releases the arguments passed to the underlying generator as soon as the context manager is entered. Previously it would keep them alive for as long as the context manager was alive, even when not being used as a function decorator. Patch by Martin Teichmann.

- bpo-21417: Added support for setting the compression level for zipfile.ZipFile.

- bpo-32251: Implement asyncio.BufferedProtocol (provisional API).

- bpo-32513: In dataclasses, allow easier overriding of dunder methods without specifying decorator parameters.

- bpo-32660: `termios` makes available `FIONREAD`, `FIONCLEX`, `FIOCLEX`, `FIOASYNC` and `FIONBIO` also under Solaris/derivatives.

- bpo-27931: Fix email address header parsing error when the username is an empty quoted string. Patch by Xiang Zhang.

- bpo-32659: Under Solaris and derivatives, `os.stat_result` provides a st_fstype attribute.

- bpo-32662: Implement Server.start_serving(), Server.serve_forever(), and Server.is_serving() methods. Add “start_serving” keyword parameter to loop.create_server() and loop.create_unix_server().

- bpo-32391: Implement `asyncio.StreamWriter.wait_closed()` and `asyncio.StreamWriter.is_closing()` methods

- bpo-32643: Make Task._step, Task._wakeup and Future._schedule_callbacks methods private.

- bpo-32630: Refactor decimal module to use contextvars to store decimal context.

- bpo-32622: Add `asyncio.AbstractEventLoop.sendfile()` method.

- bpo-32304: distutils” upload command no longer corrupts tar files ending with a CR byte, and no longer tries to convert CR to CRLF in any of the upload text fields.

- bpo-32502: uuid.uuid1 no longer raises an exception if a 64-bit hardware address is encountered.

- bpo-32596: `concurrent.futures` imports `ThreadPoolExecutor` and `ProcessPoolExecutor` lazily (using PEP 562). It makes `import asyncio` about 15% faster because asyncio uses only `ThreadPoolExecutor` by default.

- bpo-31801: Add `_ignore_` to `Enum` so temporary variables can be used during class construction without being turned into members.

- bpo-32576: Use queue.SimpleQueue() in places where it can be invoked from a weakref callback.

- bpo-32574: Fix memory leak in asyncio.Queue, when the queue has limited size and it is full, the cancelation of queue.put() can cause a memory leak. Patch by: José Melero.

- bpo-32493: UUID module fixes build for FreeBSD/OpenBSD

- bpo-32503: Pickling with protocol 4 no longer creates too small frames.

- bpo-29237: Create enum for pstats sorting options

- bpo-32454: Add close(fd) function to the socket module.

- bpo-25942: The subprocess module is now more graceful when handling a Ctrl-C KeyboardInterrupt during subprocess.call, subprocess.run, or a Popen context manager. It now waits a short amount of time for the child (presumed to have also gotten the SIGINT) to exit, before continuing the KeyboardInterrupt exception handling. This still includes a SIGKILL in the call() and run() APIs, but at least the child had a chance first.

- bpo-32433: The hmac module now has hmac.digest(), which provides an optimized HMAC digest.

- bpo-28134: Sockets now auto-detect family, type and protocol from file descriptor by default.

- bpo-32404: Fix bug where `datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp()` did not call __new__ in `datetime.datetime` subclasses.

- bpo-32403: Improved speed of `datetime.date` and `datetime.datetime` alternate constructors.

- bpo-32228: Ensure that `truncate()` preserves the file position (as reported by `tell()`) after writes longer than the buffer size.

- bpo-32410: Implement `loop.sock_sendfile` for asyncio event loop.

- bpo-22908: Added seek and tell to the ZipExtFile class. This only works if the file object used to open the zipfile is seekable.

- bpo-32373: Add socket.getblocking() method.

- bpo-32248: Add `importlib.resources` and `importlib.abc.ResourceReader` as the unified API for reading resources contained within packages. Loaders wishing to support resource reading must implement the `get_resource_reader()` method. File-based and zipimport-based loaders both implement these APIs. `importlib.abc.ResourceLoader` is deprecated in favor of these new APIs.

- bpo-32320: collections.namedtuple() now supports default values.

- bpo-29302: Add contextlib.AsyncExitStack. Patch by Alexander Mohr and Ilya Kulakov.

- bpo-31961: Removed in Python 3.7.0b2. The args argument of subprocess.Popen can now be a path-like object. If args is given as a sequence, it’s first element can now be a path-like object as well.

- bpo-31900: The `locale.localeconv()` function now sets temporarily the `LC_CTYPE` locale to the `LC_NUMERIC` locale to decode `decimal_point` and `thousands_sep` byte strings if they are non-ASCII or longer than 1 byte, and the `LC_NUMERIC` locale is different than the `LC_CTYPE` locale. This temporary change affects other threads. Same change for the `str.format()` method when formatting a number (`int`, `float`, `float` and subclasses) with the `n` type (ex: `'{:n}'.format(1234)`).

- bpo-31853: Use super().method instead of socket.method in SSLSocket. They were there most likely for legacy reasons.

- bpo-31399: The ssl module now uses OpenSSL’s X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host() and X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_ip() API to verify hostname and IP addresses. Subject common name fallback can be disabled with SSLContext.hostname_checks_common_name.

- bpo-14976: Add a queue.SimpleQueue class, an unbounded FIFO queue with a reentrant C implementation of put().

### Documentación

- bpo-32724: Add references to some commands in the documentation of Pdb. Patch by Stéphane Wirtel

- bpo-17799: Explain real behaviour of sys.settrace and sys.setprofile and their C-API counterparts regarding which type of events are received in each function. Patch by Pablo Galindo Salgado.

### Pruebas

- bpo-32721: Fix test_hashlib to not fail if the _md5 module is not built.

- bpo-28414: Add test cases for IDNA 2003 and 2008 host names. IDNA 2003 internationalized host names are working since bpo-31399 has landed. IDNA 2008 are still broken.

- bpo-32604: Add a new «_xxsubinterpreters» extension module that exposes the existing subinterpreter C-API and a new cross-interpreter data sharing mechanism. The module is primarily intended for more thorough testing of the existing subinterpreter support. Note that the _xxsubinterpreters module has been removed in 3.7.0rc1.

- bpo-32602: Add test certs and test for ECDSA cert and EC/RSA dual mode.

- bpo-32549: On Travis CI, Python now Compiles and uses a local copy of OpenSSL 1.1.0g for testing.

### Construir

- bpo-32635: Fix segfault of the crypt module when libxcrypt is provided instead of libcrypt at the system.

- bpo-32598: Use autoconf to detect OpenSSL libs, headers and supported features. The ax_check_openssl M4 macro uses pkg-config to locate OpenSSL and falls back to manual search.

- bpo-32593: Drop support of FreeBSD 9 and older.

- bpo-29708: If the `SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH` environment variable is set, `py_compile` will always create hash-based `.pyc` files.

### Ventanas

- bpo-32588: Create standalone _distutils_findvs module and add missing _queue module to installer.

- bpo-29911: Ensure separate Modify and Uninstall buttons are displayed.

- bpo-32507: Use app-local UCRT install rather than the proper update for old versions of Windows.

### Mac OS

- bpo-32726: Provide an additional, more modern macOS installer variant that supports macOS 10.9+ systems in 64-bit mode only. Upgrade the supplied third-party libraries to OpenSSL 1.1.0g and to SQLite 3.22.0. The 10.9+ installer now links with and supplies its own copy of Tcl/Tk 8.6.

- bpo-28440: No longer add /Library/Python/3.x/site-packages to sys.path for macOS framework builds to avoid future conflicts.

### API C

- bpo-32681: Fix uninitialized variable “res” in the C implementation of os.dup2. Patch by Stéphane Wirtel

- bpo-10381: Add C API access to the `datetime.timezone` constructor and `datetime.timzone.UTC` singleton.

## Python 3.7.0 alpha 4

Release date: 2018-01-08

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-31975: The default warning filter list now starts with a «default::DeprecationWarning:__main__» entry, so deprecation warnings are once again shown by default in single-file scripts and at the interactive prompt.

- bpo-32226: `__class_getitem__` is now an automatic class method.

- bpo-32399: Add AIX uuid library support for RFC4122 using uuid_create() in libc.a

- bpo-32329: The `-R` option now turns on hash randomization when the `PYTHONHASHSEED` environment variable is set to `0`. Previously, the option was ignored. Moreover, `sys.flags.hash_randomization` is now properly set to 0 when hash randomization is turned off by `PYTHONHASHSEED=0`.

- bpo-30416: The optimizer is now protected from spending much time doing complex calculations and consuming much memory for creating large constants in constant folding. Increased limits for constants that can be produced in constant folding.

- bpo-32282: Fix an unnecessary ifdef in the include of VersionHelpers.h in socketmodule on Windows.

- bpo-30579: Implement TracebackType.__new__ to allow Python-level creation of traceback objects, and make TracebackType.tb_next mutable.

- bpo-32260: Don’t byte swap the input keys to the SipHash algorithm on big-endian platforms. This should ensure siphash gives consistent results across platforms.

- bpo-31506: Improve the error message logic for object.__new__ and object.__init__. Patch by Sanyam Khurana.

- bpo-20361: `-b` and `-bb` now inject `'default::BytesWarning'` and `error::BytesWarning` entries into `sys.warnoptions`, ensuring that they take precedence over any other warning filters configured via the `-W` option or the `PYTHONWARNINGS` environment variable.

- bpo-32230: `-X dev` now injects a `'default'` entry into sys.warnoptions, ensuring that it behaves identically to actually passing `-Wdefault` at the command line.

- bpo-29240: Add a new UTF-8 mode: implementation of the PEP 540.

- bpo-32226: PEP 560: Add support for `__mro_entries__` and `__class_getitem__`. Implemented by Ivan Levkivskyi.

- bpo-32225: PEP 562: Add support for module `__getattr__` and `__dir__`. Implemented by Ivan Levkivskyi.

- bpo-31901: The `atexit` module now has its callback stored per interpreter.

- bpo-31650: Implement PEP 552 (Deterministic pycs). Python now supports invalidating bytecode cache files bashed on a source content hash rather than source last-modified time.

- bpo-29469: Move constant folding from bytecode layer to AST layer. Original patch by Eugene Toder.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-32506: Now that dict is defined as keeping insertion order, drop OrderedDict and just use plain dict.

- bpo-32279: Add params to dataclasses.make_dataclasses(): init, repr, eq, order, hash, and frozen. Pass them through to dataclass().

- bpo-32278: Make type information optional on dataclasses.make_dataclass(). If omitted, the string “typing.Any” is used.

- bpo-32499: Add dataclasses.is_dataclass(obj), which returns True if obj is a dataclass or an instance of one.

- bpo-32468: Improve frame repr() to mention filename, code name and current line number.

- bpo-23749: asyncio: Implement loop.start_tls()

- bpo-32441: Return the new file descriptor (i.e., the second argument) from `os.dup2`. Previously, `None` was always returned.

- bpo-32422: `functools.lru_cache` uses less memory (3 words for each cached key) and takes about 1/3 time for cyclic GC.

- bpo-31721: Prevent Python crash from happening when Future._log_traceback is set to True manually. Now it can only be set to False, or a ValueError is raised.

- bpo-32415: asyncio: Add Task.get_loop() and Future.get_loop()

- bpo-26133: Don’t unsubscribe signals in asyncio UNIX event loop on interpreter shutdown.

- bpo-32363: Make asyncio.Task.set_exception() and set_result() raise NotImplementedError. Task._step() and Future.__await__() raise proper exceptions when they are in an invalid state, instead of raising an AssertionError.

- bpo-32357: Optimize asyncio.iscoroutine() and loop.create_task() for non-native coroutines (e.g. async/await compiled with Cython). “loop.create_task(python_coroutine)” used to be 20% faster than “loop.create_task(cython_coroutine)”. Now, the latter is as fast.

- bpo-32356: asyncio.transport.resume_reading() and pause_reading() are now idempotent. New transport.is_reading() method is added.

- bpo-32355: Optimize asyncio.gather(); now up to 15% faster.

- bpo-32351: Use fastpath in asyncio.sleep if delay<0 (2x boost)

- bpo-32348: Optimize asyncio.Future schedule/add/remove callback. The optimization shows 3-6% performance improvements of async/await code.

- bpo-32331: Fix socket.settimeout() and socket.setblocking() to keep socket.type as is. Fix socket.socket() constructor to reset any bit flags applied to socket’s type. This change only affects OSes that have SOCK_NONBLOCK and/or SOCK_CLOEXEC.

- bpo-32248: Add `importlib.abc.ResourceReader` as an ABC for loaders to provide a unified API for reading resources contained within packages. Also add `importlib.resources` as the port of `importlib_resources`.

- bpo-32311: Implement asyncio.create_task(coro) shortcut

- bpo-32327: Convert asyncio functions that were documented as coroutines to coroutines. Affected functions: loop.sock_sendall, loop.sock_recv, loop.sock_accept, loop.getaddrinfo, loop.getnameinfo.

- bpo-32323: `urllib.parse.urlsplit()` does not convert zone-id (scope) to lower case for scoped IPv6 addresses in hostnames now.

- bpo-32302: Fix bdist_wininst of distutils for CRT v142: it binary compatible with CRT v140.

- bpo-29711: Fix `stop_serving` in asyncio proactor loop kill all listening servers

- bpo-32308: `re.sub()` now replaces empty matches adjacent to a previous non-empty match.

- bpo-29970: Abort asyncio SSLProtocol connection if handshake not complete within 10s

- bpo-32314: Implement asyncio.run().

- bpo-17852: Revert incorrect fix based on misunderstanding of _Py_PyAtExit() semantics.

- bpo-32296: Implement asyncio._get_running_loop() and get_event_loop() in C. This makes them 4x faster.

- bpo-32250: Implement `asyncio.current_task()` and `asyncio.all_tasks()`. Add helpers intended to be used by alternative task implementations: `asyncio._register_task`, `asyncio._enter_task`, `asyncio._leave_task` and `asyncio._unregister_task`. Deprecate `asyncio.Task.current_task()` and `asyncio.Task.all_tasks()`.

- bpo-32255: A single empty field is now always quoted when written into a CSV file. This allows to distinguish an empty row from a row consisting of a single empty field. Patch by Licht Takeuchi.

- bpo-32277: Raise `NotImplementedError` instead of `SystemError` on platforms where `chmod(..., follow_symlinks=False)` is not supported. Patch by Anthony Sottile.

- bpo-30050: New argument warn_on_full_buffer to signal.set_wakeup_fd lets you control whether Python prints a warning on stderr when the wakeup fd buffer overflows.

- bpo-29137: The `fpectl` library has been removed. It was never enabled by default, never worked correctly on x86-64, and it changed the Python ABI in ways that caused unexpected breakage of C extensions.

- bpo-32273: Move asyncio.test_utils to test.test_asyncio.

- bpo-32272: Remove asyncio.async() function.

- bpo-32269: Add asyncio.get_running_loop() function.

- bpo-32265: All class and static methods of builtin types now are correctly classified by inspect.classify_class_attrs() and grouped in pydoc ouput. Added types.ClassMethodDescriptorType for unbound class methods of builtin types.

- bpo-32253: Deprecate `yield from lock`, `await lock`, `with (yield from lock)` and `with await lock` for asyncio synchronization primitives.

- bpo-22589: Changed MIME type of .bmp from “image/x-ms-bmp” to “image/bmp”

- bpo-32193: Convert asyncio to use async/await syntax. Old styled `yield from` is still supported too.

- bpo-32206: Add support to run modules with pdb

- bpo-32227: `functools.singledispatch` now supports registering implementations using type annotations.

- bpo-15873: Added new alternate constructors `datetime.datetime.fromisoformat()`, `datetime.time.fromisoformat()` and `datetime.date.fromisoformat()` as the inverse operation of each classes’s respective `isoformat` methods.

- bpo-32199: The getnode() ip getter now uses “ip link” instead of “ip link list”.

- bpo-32143: os.statvfs() includes the f_fsid field from statvfs(2)

- bpo-26439: Fix ctypes.util.find_library() for AIX by implementing ctypes._aix.find_library() Patch by: Michael Felt

- bpo-31993: The pickler now uses less memory when serializing large bytes and str objects into a file. Pickles created with protocol 4 will require less memory for unpickling large bytes and str objects.

- bpo-27456: Ensure TCP_NODELAY is set on Linux. Tests by Victor Stinner.

- bpo-31778: ast.literal_eval() is now more strict. Addition and subtraction of arbitrary numbers no longer allowed.

- bpo-31802: Importing native path module (`posixpath`, `ntpath`) now works even if the `os` module still is not imported.

- bpo-30241: Add contextlib.AbstractAsyncContextManager. Patch by Jelle Zijlstra.

- bpo-31699: Fix deadlocks in `concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor` when task arguments or results cause pickling or unpickling errors. This should make sure that calls to the `ProcessPoolExecutor` API always eventually return.

- bpo-15216: `TextIOWrapper.reconfigure()` supports changing encoding, errors, and newline.

### Documentación

- bpo-32418: Add get_loop() method to Server and AbstractServer classes.

### Pruebas

- bpo-32252: Fix faulthandler_suppress_crash_report() used to prevent core dump files when testing crashes. getrlimit() returns zero on success.

- bpo-32002: Adjust C locale coercion testing for the empty locale and POSIX locale cases to more readily adjust to platform dependent behaviour.

### Ventanas

- bpo-19764: Implement support for `subprocess.Popen(close_fds=True)` on Windows. Patch by Segev Finer.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-24960: 2to3 and lib2to3 can now read pickled grammar files using pkgutil.get_data() rather than probing the filesystem. This lets 2to3 and lib2to3 work when run from a zipfile.

### API C

- bpo-32030: Py_Initialize() doesn’t reset the memory allocators to default if the `PYTHONMALLOC` environment variable is not set.

- bpo-29084: Undocumented C API for OrderedDict has been excluded from the limited C API. It was added by mistake and actually never worked in the limited C API.

- bpo-32264: Moved the pygetopt.h header into internal/, since it has no public APIs.

- bpo-32241: `Py_SetProgramName()` and `Py_SetPythonHome()` now take the `const wchar *` arguments instead of `wchar *`.

## Python 3.7.0 alpha 3

Release date: 2017-12-05

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-32176: co_flags.CO_NOFREE is now always set correctly by the code object constructor based on freevars and cellvars, rather than needing to be set correctly by the caller. This ensures it will be cleared automatically when additional cell references are injected into a modified code object and function.

- bpo-10544: Yield expressions are now deprecated in comprehensions and generator expressions. They are still permitted in the definition of the outermost iterable, as that is evaluated directly in the enclosing scope.

- bpo-32137: The repr of deeply nested dict now raises a RecursionError instead of crashing due to a stack overflow.

- bpo-32096: Revert memory allocator changes in the C API: move structures back from _PyRuntime to Objects/obmalloc.c. The memory allocators are once again initialized statically, and so PyMem_RawMalloc() and Py_DecodeLocale() can be called before _PyRuntime_Initialize().

- bpo-32043: Add a new «developer mode»: new «-X dev» command line option to enable debug checks at runtime.

- bpo-32023: SyntaxError is now correctly raised when a generator expression without parenthesis is used instead of an inheritance list in a class definition. The duplication of the parentheses can be omitted only on calls.

- bpo-32012: SyntaxError is now correctly raised when a generator expression without parenthesis is passed as an argument, but followed by a trailing comma. A generator expression always needs to be directly inside a set of parentheses and cannot have a comma on either side.

- bpo-28180: A new internal `_Py_SetLocaleFromEnv(category)` helper function has been added in order to improve the consistency of behaviour across different `libc` implementations (e.g. Android doesn’t support setting the locale from the environment by default).

- bpo-31949: Fixed several issues in printing tracebacks (PyTraceBack_Print()). 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.

- bpo-30696: Fix the interactive interpreter looping endlessly when no memory.

- bpo-20047: Bytearray methods partition() and rpartition() now accept only bytes-like objects as separator, as documented. In particular they now raise TypeError rather of returning a bogus result when an integer is passed as a separator.

- bpo-21720: BytesWarning no longer emitted when the fromlist argument of `__import__()` or the `__all__` attribute of the module contain bytes instances.

- bpo-31845: Environment variables are once more read correctly at interpreter startup.

- bpo-28936: Ensure that lexically first syntax error involving a parameter and `global` or `nonlocal` is detected first at a given scope. Patch by Ivan Levkivskyi.

- bpo-31825: Fixed OverflowError in the “unicode-escape” codec and in codecs.escape_decode() when decode an escaped non-ascii byte.

- bpo-31618: The per-frame tracing logic added in 3.7a1 has been altered so that `frame->f_lineno` is updated before either `"line"` or `"opcode"` events are emitted. Previously, opcode events were emitted first, and therefore would occasionally see stale line numbers on the frame. The behavior of this feature has changed slightly as a result: when both `f_trace_lines` and `f_trace_opcodes` are enabled, line events now occur first.

- bpo-28603: Print the full context/cause chain of exceptions on interpreter exit, even if an exception in the chain is unhashable or compares equal to later ones. Patch by Zane Bitter.

- bpo-31786: Fix timeout rounding in the select module to round correctly negative timeouts between -1.0 and 0.0. The functions now block waiting for events as expected. Previously, the call was incorrectly non-blocking. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

- bpo-31781: Prevent crashes when calling methods of an uninitialized `zipimport.zipimporter` object. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-30399: Standard repr() of BaseException with a single argument no longer contains redundant trailing comma.

- bpo-31626: Fixed a bug in debug memory allocator. There was a write to freed memory after shrinking a memory block.

- bpo-30817: `PyErr_PrintEx()` clears now the ignored exception that may be raised by `_PySys_SetObjectId()`, for example when no memory.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-28556: Two minor fixes for `typing` module: allow shallow copying instances of generic classes, improve interaction of `__init_subclass__` with generics. Original PRs by Ivan Levkivskyi.

- bpo-32214: PEP 557, Data Classes. Provides a decorator which adds boilerplate methods to classes which use type annotations so specify fields.

- bpo-27240: The header folding algorithm for the new email policies has been rewritten, which also fixes bpo-30788, bpo-31831, and bpo-32182. In particular, RFC2231 folding is now done correctly.

- bpo-32186: io.FileIO.readall() and io.FileIO.read() now release the GIL when getting the file size. Fixed hang of all threads with inaccessible NFS server. Patch by Nir Soffer.

- bpo-32101: Add `sys.flags.dev_mode` flag

- bpo-32154: The `asyncio.windows_utils.socketpair()` function has been removed: use directly `socket.socketpair()` which is available on all platforms since Python 3.5 (before, it wasn’t available on Windows). `asyncio.windows_utils.socketpair()` was just an alias to `socket.socketpair` on Python 3.5 and newer.

- bpo-32089: warnings: In development (-X dev) and debug mode (pydebug build), use the «default» action for ResourceWarning, rather than the «always» action, in the default warnings filters.

- bpo-32107: `uuid.getnode()` now preferentially returns universally administered MAC addresses if available, over locally administered MAC addresses. This makes a better guarantee for global uniqueness of UUIDs returned from `uuid.uuid1()`. If only locally administered MAC addresses are available, the first such one found is returned.

- bpo-23033: Wildcard is now supported in hostname when it is one and only character in the left most segment of hostname in second argument of `ssl.match_hostname()`. Patch by Mandeep Singh.

- bpo-12239: Make `msilib.SummaryInformation.GetProperty()` return `None` when the value of property is `VT_EMPTY`. Initial patch by Mark Mc Mahon.

- bpo-28334: Use `os.path.expanduser()` to find the `~/.netrc` file in `netrc.netrc`. If it does not exist, `FileNotFoundError` is raised. Patch by Dimitri Merejkowsky.

- bpo-32121: Made `tracemalloc.Traceback` behave more like the traceback module, sorting the frames from oldest to most recent. `Traceback.format()` now accepts negative limit, truncating the result to the `abs(limit)` oldest frames. To get the old behaviour, one can use the new most_recent_first argument to `Traceback.format()`. (Patch by Jesse Bakker.)

- bpo-31325: Fix wrong usage of `collections.namedtuple()` in the `RobotFileParser.parse()` method. Initial patch by Robin Wellner.

- bpo-12382: `msilib.OpenDatabase()` now raises a better exception message when it couldn’t open or create an MSI file. Initial patch by William Tisäter.

- bpo-19610: `setup()` now warns about invalid types for some fields. The `distutils.dist.Distribution` class now warns when `classifiers`, `keywords` and `platforms` fields are not specified as a list or a string.

- bpo-32071: Added the `-k` command-line option to `python -m unittest` to run only tests that match the given pattern(s).

- bpo-10049: Added nullcontext no-op context manager to contextlib. This provides a simpler and faster alternative to ExitStack() when handling optional context managers.

- bpo-28684: The new test.support.skip_unless_bind_unix_socket() decorator is used here to skip asyncio tests that fail because the platform lacks a functional bind() function for unix domain sockets (as it is the case for non root users on the recent Android versions that run now SELinux in enforcing mode).

- bpo-32110: `codecs.StreamReader.read(n)` now returns not more than n characters/bytes for non-negative n. This makes it compatible with `read()` methods of other file-like objects.

- bpo-27535: The warnings module doesn’t leak memory anymore in the hidden warnings registry for the «ignore» action of warnings filters. warn_explicit() function doesn’t add the warning key to the registry anymore for the «ignore» action.

- bpo-32088: warnings: When Python is build is debug mode (`Py_DEBUG`), `DeprecationWarning`, `PendingDeprecationWarning` and `ImportWarning` warnings are now displayed by default.

- bpo-1647489: Fixed searching regular expression patterns that could match an empty string. Non-empty string can now be correctly found after matching an empty string.

- bpo-25054: Added support of splitting on a pattern that could match an empty string.

- bpo-32072: Fixed issues with binary plists: Fixed saving bytearrays. Identical objects will be saved only once. Equal references will be load as identical objects. Added support for saving and loading recursive data structures.

- bpo-32069: Drop legacy SSL transport from asyncio, ssl.MemoryBIO is always used anyway.

- bpo-32066: asyncio: Support pathlib.Path in create_unix_connection; sock arg should be optional

- bpo-32046: Updates 2to3 to convert from operator.isCallable(obj) to callable(obj). Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-32018: inspect.signature should follow PEP 8, if the parameter has an annotation and a default value. Patch by Dong-hee Na.

- bpo-32025: Add time.thread_time() and time.thread_time_ns()

- bpo-32037: Integers that fit in a signed 32-bit integer will be now pickled with protocol 0 using the INT opcode. This will decrease the size of a pickle, speed up pickling and unpickling, and make these integers be unpickled as int instances in Python 2.

- bpo-32034: Make asyncio.IncompleteReadError and LimitOverrunError pickleable.

- bpo-32015: Fixed the looping of asyncio in the case of reconnection the socket during waiting async read/write from/to the socket.

- bpo-32011: Restored support of loading marshal files with the TYPE_INT64 code. These files can be produced in Python 2.7.

- bpo-28369: Enhance add_reader/writer check that socket is not used by some transport. Before, only cases when add_reader/writer were called with an int FD were supported. Now the check is implemented correctly for all file-like objects.

- bpo-31976: Fix race condition when flushing a file is slow, which can cause a segfault if closing the file from another thread.

- bpo-31985: Formally deprecated aifc.openfp, sunau.openfp, and wave.openfp. Since change 7bc817d5ba917528e8bd07ec461c635291e7b06a in 1993, openfp in each of the three modules had been pointing to that module’s open function as a matter of backwards compatibility, though it had been both untested and undocumented.

- bpo-21862: cProfile command line now accepts `-m module_name` as an alternative to script path. Patch by Sanyam Khurana.

- bpo-31970: Reduce performance overhead of asyncio debug mode.

- bpo-32126: Skip test_get_event_loop_new_process in test.test_asyncio.test_events when sem_open() is not functional.

- bpo-31174: Fix test_tools.test_unparse: DirectoryTestCase now stores the names sample to always test the same files. It prevents false alarms when hunting reference leaks.

### Construir

- bpo-28538: Revert the previous changes, the if_nameindex structure is defined by Unified Headers.

- bpo-28762: Revert the last commit, the F_LOCK macro is defined by Android Unified Headers.

- bpo-29040: Support building Android with Unified Headers. The first NDK release to support Unified Headers is android-ndk-r14.

- bpo-20486: Implement the `Database.Close()` method to help closing MSI database objects.

- bpo-31857: Make the behavior of USE_STACKCHECK deterministic in a multi-threaded environment.

### Mac OS

- bpo-31392: Update macOS installer to use OpenSSL 1.0.2m

### INACTIVO

- bpo-32207: Improve tk event exception tracebacks in IDLE. When tk event handling is driven by IDLE’s run loop, a confusing and distracting queue.EMPTY traceback context is no longer added to tk event exception tracebacks. The traceback is now the same as when event handling is driven by user code. Patch based on a suggestion by Serhiy Storchaka.

- bpo-32164: Delete unused file idlelib/tabbedpages.py. Use of TabbedPageSet in configdialog was replaced by ttk.Notebook.

- bpo-32100: IDLE: Fix old and new bugs in pathbrowser; improve tests. Patch mostly by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-31858: IDLE – Restrict shell prompt manipulation to the shell. Editor and output windows only see an empty last prompt line. This simplifies the code and fixes a minor bug when newline is inserted. Sys.ps1, if present, is read on Shell start-up, but is not set or changed.

- bpo-31860: The font sample in the IDLE configuration dialog is now editable. Changes persist while IDLE remains open

- bpo-31836: Test_code_module now passes if run after test_idle, which sets ps1. The code module uses sys.ps1 if present or sets it to “>>> “ if not. Test_code_module now properly tests both behaviors. Ditto for ps2.

- bpo-28603: Fix a TypeError that caused a shell restart when printing a traceback that includes an exception that is unhashable. Patch by Zane Bitter.

- bpo-13802: Use non-Latin characters in the IDLE’s Font settings sample. Even if one selects a font that defines a limited subset of the unicode Basic Multilingual Plane, tcl/tk will use other fonts that define a character. The expanded example give users of non-Latin characters a better idea of what they might see in IDLE’s shell and editors. To make room for the expanded sample, frames on the Font tab are re-arranged. The Font/Tabs help explains a bit about the additions.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-32159: Remove CVS and Subversion tools: remove svneol.py and treesync.py scripts. CPython migrated from CVS to Subversion, to Mercurial, and then to Git. CVS and Subversion are no longer used to develop CPython.

- bpo-30722: Make redemo work with Python 3.6 and newer versions. Also, remove the `LOCALE` option since it doesn’t work with string patterns in Python 3. Patch by Christoph Sarnowski.

### API C

- bpo-20891: Fix PyGILState_Ensure(). When PyGILState_Ensure() is called in a non-Python thread before PyEval_InitThreads(), only call PyEval_InitThreads() after calling PyThreadState_New() to fix a crash.

- bpo-32125: The `Py_UseClassExceptionsFlag` flag has been removed. It was deprecated and wasn’t used anymore since Python 2.0.

- bpo-25612: Move the current exception state from the frame object to the co-routine. This simplifies the interpreter and fixes a couple of obscure bugs caused by having swap exception state when entering or exiting a generator.

- bpo-23699: Add Py_RETURN_RICHCOMPARE macro to reduce boilerplate code in rich comparison functions.

- bpo-30697: The `PyExc_RecursionErrorInst` singleton is removed and `PyErr_NormalizeException()` does not use it anymore. This singleton is persistent and its members being never cleared may cause a segfault during finalization of the interpreter. See also bpo-22898.

## Python 3.7.0 alpha 2

Release date: 2017-10-16

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-31558: `gc.freeze()` is a new API that allows for moving all objects currently tracked by the garbage collector to a permanent generation, effectively removing them from future collection events. This can be used to protect those objects from having their PyGC_Head mutated. In effect, this enables great copy-on-write stability at fork().

- bpo-31642: Restored blocking «from package import module» by setting sys.modules[«package.module»] to None.

- bpo-31708: Allow use of asynchronous generator expressions in synchronous functions.

- bpo-31336: Speed up class creation by 10-20% by reducing the overhead in the necessary special method lookups. Patch by Stefan Behnel.

- bpo-31415: Add `-X importtime` option to show how long each import takes. It can be used to optimize application’s startup time. Support the `PYTHONPROFILEIMPORTTIME` as an equivalent way to enable this.

- bpo-31410: Optimized calling wrapper and classmethod descriptors.

- bpo-31353: PEP 553 - Add a new built-in called `breakpoint()` which calls `sys.breakpointhook()`. By default this imports `pdb` and calls `pdb.set_trace()`, but users may override `sys.breakpointhook()` to call whatever debugger they want. The original value of the hook is saved in `sys.__breakpointhook__`.

- bpo-17852: Maintain a list of open buffered files, flush them before exiting the interpreter. Based on a patch from Armin Rigo.

- bpo-31315: Fix an assertion failure in imp.create_dynamic(), when spec.name is not a string. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-31311: Fix a crash in the `__setstate__()` method of `ctypes._CData`, in case of a bad `__dict__`. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-31293: Fix crashes in true division and multiplication of a timedelta object by a float with a bad as_integer_ratio() method. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-31285: Fix an assertion failure in `warnings.warn_explicit`, when the return value of the received loader’s get_source() has a bad splitlines() method. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-30406: Make `async` and `await` proper keywords, as specified in PEP 492.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-30058: Fixed buffer overflow in select.kqueue.control().

- bpo-31672: `idpattern` in `string.Template` matched some non-ASCII characters. Now it uses `-i` regular expression local flag to avoid non-ASCII characters.

- bpo-31701: On Windows, faulthandler.enable() now ignores MSC and COM exceptions.

- bpo-31728: Prevent crashes in `_elementtree` due to unsafe cleanup of `Element.text` and `Element.tail`. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-31671: Now `re.compile()` converts passed RegexFlag to normal int object before compiling. bm_regex_compile benchmark shows 14% performance improvements.

- bpo-30397: The types of compiled regular objects and match objects are now exposed as `re.Pattern` and `re.Match`. This adds information in pydoc output for the re module.

- bpo-31675: Fixed memory leaks in Tkinter’s methods splitlist() and split() when pass a string larger than 2 GiB.

- bpo-31673: Fixed typo in the name of Tkinter’s method adderrorinfo().

- bpo-31648: Improvements to path predicates in ElementTree: Allow whitespace around predicate parts, i.e. «[a = “text”]» instead of requiring the less readable «[a=”text”]». Add support for text comparison of the current node, like «[.=”text”]». Patch by Stefan Behnel.

- bpo-30806: Fix the string representation of a netrc object.

- bpo-31638: Add optional argument `compressed` to `zipapp.create_archive`, and add option `--compress` to the command line interface of `zipapp`.

- bpo-25351: Avoid venv activate failures with undefined variables

- bpo-20519: Avoid ctypes use (if possible) and improve import time for uuid.

- bpo-28293: The regular expression cache is no longer completely dumped when it is full.

- bpo-31596: Added pthread_getcpuclockid() to the time module

- bpo-27494: Make 2to3 accept a trailing comma in generator expressions. For example, `set(x for x in [],)` is now allowed.

- bpo-30347: Stop crashes when concurrently iterate over itertools.groupby() iterators.

- bpo-30346: An iterator produced by itertools.groupby() iterator now becomes exhausted after advancing the groupby iterator.

- bpo-31556: Cancel asyncio.wait_for future faster if timeout <= 0

- bpo-31540: Allow passing a context object in `concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor` constructor. Also, free job resources in `concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor` earlier to improve memory usage when a worker waits for new jobs.

- bpo-31516: `threading.current_thread()` should not return a dummy thread at shutdown.

- bpo-31525: In the sqlite module, require the sqlite3_prepare_v2 API. Thus, the sqlite module now requires sqlite version at least 3.3.9.

- bpo-26510: argparse subparsers are now required by default. This matches behaviour in Python 2. For optional subparsers, use the new parameter `add_subparsers(required=False)`. Patch by Anthony Sottile. (As of 3.7.0rc1, the default was changed to not required as had been the case since Python 3.3.)

- bpo-27541: Reprs of subclasses of some collection and iterator classes (`bytearray`, `array.array`, `collections.deque`, `collections.defaultdict`, `itertools.count`, `itertools.repeat`) now contain actual type name insteads of hardcoded name of the base class.

- bpo-31351: python -m ensurepip now exits with non-zero exit code if pip bootstrapping has failed.

- bpo-31389: `pdb.set_trace()` now takes an optional keyword-only argument `header`. If given, this is printed to the console just before debugging begins.

### Documentación

- bpo-31537: Fix incorrect usage of `get_history_length` in readline documentation example code. Patch by Brad Smith.

- bpo-30085: The operator functions without double underscores are preferred for clarity. The one with underscores are only kept for back-compatibility.

### Construir

- bpo-31696: Improve compiler version information in `sys.version` when Python is built with Clang.

- bpo-31625: Stop using ranlib on static libraries. Instead, we assume ar supports the “s” flag.

- bpo-31624: Remove support for BSD/OS.

- bpo-22140: Prevent double substitution of prefix in python-config.sh.

- bpo-31569: Correct PCBuild/ case to PCbuild/ in build scripts and documentation.

- bpo-31536: Avoid wholesale rebuild after `make regen-all` if nothing changed.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-31460: Simplify the API of IDLE’s Module Browser. Passing a widget instead of an flist with a root widget opens the option of creating a browser frame that is only part of a window. Passing a full file name instead of pieces assumed to come from a .py file opens the possibility of browsing python files that do not end in .py.

- bpo-31649: IDLE - Make _htest, _utest parameters keyword only.

- bpo-31559: Remove test order dependence in idle_test.test_browser.

- bpo-31459: Rename IDLE’s module browser from Class Browser to Module Browser. The original module-level class and method browser became a module browser, with the addition of module-level functions, years ago. Nested classes and functions were added yesterday. For back-compatibility, the virtual event <<open-class-browser>>, which appears on the Keys tab of the Settings dialog, is not changed. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-31500: Default fonts now are scaled on HiDPI displays.

- bpo-1612262: IDLE module browser now shows nested classes and functions. Original patches for code and tests by Guilherme Polo and Cheryl Sabella, respectively.

### API C

- bpo-28280: Make `PyMapping_Keys()`, `PyMapping_Values()` and `PyMapping_Items()` always return a `list` (rather than a `list` or a `tuple`). Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-31532: Fix memory corruption due to allocator mix in getpath.c between Py_GetPath() and Py_SetPath()

- bpo-25658: Implement PEP 539 for Thread Specific Storage (TSS) API: it is a new Thread Local Storage (TLS) API to CPython which would supersede use of the existing TLS API within the CPython interpreter, while deprecating the existing API. PEP written by Erik M. Bray, patch by Masayuki Yamamoto.

## Python 3.7.0 alpha 1

Release date: 2017-09-19

### Seguridad

- bpo-29781: SSLObject.version() now correctly returns None when handshake over BIO has not been performed yet.

- bpo-29505: Add fuzz tests for float(str), int(str), unicode(str); for oss-fuzz.

- bpo-30947: Upgrade libexpat embedded copy from version 2.2.1 to 2.2.3 to get security fixes.

- bpo-30730: Prevent environment variables injection in subprocess on Windows. Prevent passing other environment variables and command arguments.

- bpo-30694: Upgrade expat copy from 2.2.0 to 2.2.1 to get fixes of multiple security vulnerabilities including: CVE-2017-9233 (External entity infinite loop DoS), CVE-2016-9063 (Integer overflow, re-fix), CVE-2016-0718 (Fix regression bugs from 2.2.0’s fix to CVE-2016-0718) and CVE-2012-0876 (Counter hash flooding with SipHash). Note: the CVE-2016-5300 (Use os-specific entropy sources like getrandom) doesn’t impact Python, since Python already gets entropy from the OS to set the expat secret using `XML_SetHashSalt()`.

- bpo-30500: Fix urllib.parse.splithost() to correctly parse fragments. For example, `splithost('//127.0.0.1#@evil.com/')` now correctly returns the `127.0.0.1` host, instead of treating `@evil.com` as the host in an authentication (`login@host`).

- bpo-29591: Update expat copy from 2.1.1 to 2.2.0 to get fixes of CVE-2016-0718 and CVE-2016-4472. See https://sourceforge.net/p/expat/bugs/537/ for more information.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-31490: Fix an assertion failure in `ctypes` class definition, in case the class has an attribute whose name is specified in `_anonymous_` but not in `_fields_`. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-31471: Fix an assertion failure in `subprocess.Popen()` on Windows, in case the env argument has a bad keys() method. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-31416: Fix assertion failures in case of a bad warnings.filters or warnings.defaultaction. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-28411: Change direct usage of PyInterpreterState.modules to PyImport_GetModuleDict(). Also introduce more uniformity in other code that deals with sys.modules. This helps reduce complications when working on sys.modules.

- bpo-28411: Switch to the abstract API when dealing with `PyInterpreterState.modules`. This allows later support for all dict subclasses and other Mapping implementations. Also add a `PyImport_GetModule()` function to reduce a bunch of duplicated code.

- bpo-31411: Raise a TypeError instead of SystemError in case warnings.onceregistry is not a dictionary. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-31344: For finer control of tracing behaviour when testing the interpreter, two new frame attributes have been added to control the emission of particular trace events: `f_trace_lines` (`True` by default) to turn off per-line trace events; and `f_trace_opcodes` (`False` by default) to turn on per-opcode trace events.

- bpo-31373: Fix several possible instances of undefined behavior due to floating-point demotions.

- bpo-30465: Location information (`lineno` and `col_offset`) in f-strings is now (mostly) correct. This fixes tools like flake8 from showing warnings on the wrong line (typically the first line of the file).

- bpo-30860: Consolidate CPython’s global runtime state under a single struct. This improves discoverability of the runtime state.

- bpo-31347: Fix possible undefined behavior in _PyObject_FastCall_Prepend.

- bpo-31343: Include sys/sysmacros.h for major(), minor(), and makedev(). GNU C libray plans to remove the functions from sys/types.h.

- bpo-31243: Fix a crash in some methods of `io.TextIOWrapper`, when the decoder’s state is invalid. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-30721: `print` now shows correct usage hint for using Python 2 redirection syntax. Patch by Sanyam Khurana.

- bpo-31070: Fix a race condition in importlib _get_module_lock().

- bpo-30747: Add a non-dummy implementation of _Py_atomic_store and _Py_atomic_load on MSVC.

- bpo-30501: The compiler now produces more optimal code for complex condition expressions in the «if», «while» and «assert» statement, the «if» expression, and generator expressions and comprehensions.

- bpo-28180: Implement PEP 538 (legacy C locale coercion). This means that when a suitable coercion target locale is available, both the core interpreter and locale-aware C extensions will assume the use of UTF-8 as the default text encoding, rather than ASCII.

- bpo-30486: Allows setting cell values for __closure__. Patch by Lisa Roach.

- bpo-30537: itertools.islice now accepts integer-like objects (having an __index__ method) as start, stop, and slice arguments

- bpo-29935: Fixed error messages in the index() method of tuple, list and deque when pass indices of wrong type.

- bpo-29816: Shift operation now has less opportunity to raise OverflowError. ValueError always is raised rather than OverflowError for negative counts. Shifting zero with non-negative count always returns zero.

- bpo-24821: Fixed the slowing down to 25 times in the searching of some unlucky Unicode characters.

- bpo-29102: Add a unique ID to PyInterpreterState. This makes it easier to identify each subinterpreter.

- bpo-29723: The `sys.path[0]` initialization change for bpo-29139 caused a regression by revealing an inconsistency in how sys.path is initialized when executing `__main__` from a zipfile, directory, or other import location. The interpreter now consistently avoids ever adding the import location’s parent directory to `sys.path`, and ensures no other `sys.path` entries are inadvertently modified when inserting the import location named on the command line.

- bpo-29568: Escaped percent «%%» in the format string for classic string formatting no longer allows any characters between two percents.

- bpo-29714: Fix a regression that bytes format may fail when containing zero bytes inside.

- bpo-29695: bool(), float(), list() and tuple() no longer take keyword arguments. The first argument of int() can now be passes only as positional argument.

- bpo-28893: Set correct __cause__ for errors about invalid awaitables returned from __aiter__ and __anext__.

- bpo-22257: Clean up interpreter startup (see PEP 432).

- bpo-26919: On Android, operating system data is now always encoded/decoded to/from UTF-8, instead of the locale encoding to avoid inconsistencies with os.fsencode() and os.fsdecode() which are already using UTF-8.

- bpo-28991: functools.lru_cache() was susceptible to an obscure reentrancy bug triggerable by a monkey-patched len() function.

- bpo-28147: Fix a memory leak in split-table dictionaries: setattr() must not convert combined table into split table. Patch written by INADA Naoki.

- bpo-28918: Fix the cross compilation of xxlimited when Python has been built with Py_DEBUG defined.

- bpo-23722: Rather than silently producing a class that doesn’t support zero-argument `super()` in methods, failing to pass the new `__classcell__` namespace entry up to `type.__new__` now results in a `DeprecationWarning` and a class that supports zero-argument `super()`.

- bpo-28797: Modifying the class __dict__ inside the __set_name__ method of a descriptor that is used inside that class no longer prevents calling the __set_name__ method of other descriptors.

- bpo-28799: Remove the `PyEval_GetCallStats()` function and deprecate the untested and undocumented `sys.callstats()` function. Remove the `CALL_PROFILE` special build: use the `sys.setprofile()` function, `cProfile` or `profile` to profile function calls.

- bpo-12844: More than 255 arguments can now be passed to a function.

- bpo-28782: Fix a bug in the implementation `yield from` when checking if the next instruction is YIELD_FROM. Regression introduced by WORDCODE (bpo-26647).

- bpo-28774: Fix error position of the unicode error in ASCII and Latin1 encoders when a string returned by the error handler contains multiple non-encodable characters (non-ASCII for the ASCII codec, characters out of the U+0000-U+00FF range for Latin1).

- bpo-28731: Optimize _PyDict_NewPresized() to create correct size dict. Improve speed of dict literal with constant keys up to 30%.

- bpo-28532: Show sys.version when -V option is supplied twice.

- bpo-27100: The with-statement now checks for __enter__ before it checks for __exit__. This gives less confusing error messages when both methods are missing. Patch by Jonathan Ellington.

- bpo-28638: Changed the implementation strategy for collections.namedtuple() to substantially reduce the use of exec() in favor of precomputed methods. As a result, the verbose parameter and _source attribute are no longer supported. The benefits include 1) having a smaller memory footprint for applications using multiple named tuples, 2) faster creation of the named tuple class (approx 4x to 6x depending on how it is measured), and 3) minor speed-ups for instance creation using __new__, _make, and _replace. (The primary patch contributor is Jelle Zijlstra with further improvements by INADA Naoki, Serhiy Storchaka, and Raymond Hettinger.)

- bpo-23835: configparser: reading defaults in the `ConfigParser()` constructor is now using `read_dict()`, making its behavior consistent with the rest of the parser. Non-string keys and values in the defaults dictionary are now being implicitly converted to strings. Patch by James Tocknell.

- bpo-31238: pydoc: the stop() method of the private ServerThread class now waits until DocServer.serve_until_quit() completes and then explicitly sets its docserver attribute to None to break a reference cycle.

- bpo-5001: There are a number of uninformative asserts in the `multiprocessing` module, as noted in issue 5001. This change fixes two of the most potentially problematic ones, since they are in error-reporting code, in the `multiprocessing.managers.convert_to_error` function. (It also makes more informative a ValueError message.) The only potentially problematic change is that the AssertionError is now a TypeError; however, this should also help distinguish it from an AssertionError being reported by the function/its caller (such as in issue 31169). - Patch by Allen W. Smith (drallensmith on github).

- bpo-31185: Fixed miscellaneous errors in asyncio speedup module.

- bpo-31151: socketserver.ForkingMixIn.server_close() now waits until all child processes completed to prevent leaking zombie processes.

- bpo-30807: signal.setitimer() may disable the timer when passed a tiny value. Tiny values (such as 1e-6) are valid non-zero values for setitimer(), which is specified as taking microsecond-resolution intervals. However, on some platform, our conversion routine could convert 1e-6 into a zero interval, therefore disabling the timer instead of (re-)scheduling it.

Use bytes and bytearray to reference the latter. In order to ensure this and future cross-reference updates are applied automatically, the daily documentation builds now disable the default output caching features in Sphinx.

- bpo-26985: Add missing info of code object in inspect documentation.

- bpo-19824: Improve the documentation for, and links to, template strings by emphasizing their utility for internationalization, and by clarifying some usage constraints. (See also: bpo-20314, bpo-12518)

When running the test suite using –use=all / -u all, exclude tzdata since it makes test_datetime too slow (15-20 min on some buildbots) which then times out on some buildbots. Fix also regrtest command line parser to allow passing -u extralargefile to run test_zipfile64.

- bpo-30695: Add the `set_nomemory(start, stop)` and `remove_mem_hooks()` functions to the _testcapi module.

- bpo-29243: Prevent unnecessary rebuilding of Python during `make test`, `make install` and some other make targets when configured with `--enable-optimizations`.

- bpo-23404: Don’t regenerate generated files based on file modification time anymore: the action is now explicit. Replace `make touch` with `make regen-all`.

- bpo-29643: Fix `--enable-optimization` didn’t work.

- bpo-27593: sys.version and the platform module python_build(), python_branch(), and python_revision() functions now use git information rather than hg when building from a repo.

- bpo-29572: Update Windows build and OS X installers to use OpenSSL 1.0.2k.

- bpo-27659: Prohibit implicit C function declarations: use `-Werror=implicit-function-declaration` when possible (GCC and Clang, but it depends on the compiler version). Patch written by Chi Hsuan Yen.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-31493: IDLE code context – fix code update and font update timers. Canceling timers prevents a warning message when test_idle completes.

- bpo-31488: IDLE - Update non-key options in former extension classes. When applying configdialog changes, call .reload for each feature class. Change ParenMatch so updated options affect existing instances attached to existing editor windows.

- bpo-31477: IDLE - Improve rstrip entry in doc. Strip trailing whitespace strips more than blank spaces. Multiline string literals are not skipped.

- bpo-31480: IDLE - make tests pass with zzdummy extension disabled by default.

- bpo-31421: Document how IDLE runs tkinter programs. IDLE calls tcl/tk update in the background in order to make live interaction and experimentation with tkinter applications much easier.

- bpo-31414: IDLE – fix tk entry box tests by deleting first. Adding to an int entry is not the same as deleting and inserting because int(“”) will fail.

- bpo-31051: Rearrange IDLE configdialog GenPage into Window, Editor, and Help sections.

- bpo-30617: IDLE - Add docstrings and tests for outwin subclass of editor. Move some data and functions from the class to module level. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-31287: IDLE - Do not modify tkinter.message in test_configdialog.

- bpo-27099: Convert IDLE’s built-in “extensions” to regular features. About 10 IDLE features were implemented as supposedly optional extensions. Their different behavior could be confusing or worse for users and not good for maintenance. Hence the conversion. The main difference for users is that user configurable key bindings for builtin features are now handled uniformly. Now, editing a binding in a keyset only affects its value in the keyset. All bindings are defined together in the system-specific default keysets in config-extensions.def. All custom keysets are saved as a whole in config-extension.cfg. All take effect as soon as one clicks Apply or Ok. The affected events are “<<force-open-completions>>”, “<<expand-word>>”, “<<force-open-calltip>>”, “<<flash-paren>>”, “<<format-paragraph>>”, “<<run-module>>”, “<<check-module>>”, and “<<zoom-height>>”. Any (global) customizations made before 3.6.3 will not affect their keyset-specific customization after 3.6.3. and vice versa. Initial patch by Charles Wohlganger.

- bpo-31206: IDLE: Factor HighPage(Frame) class from ConfigDialog. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-31001: Add tests for configdialog highlight tab. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-31002: Add tests for configdialog keys tab. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-19903: IDLE: Calltips use `inspect.signature` instead of `inspect.getfullargspec`. This improves calltips for builtins converted to use Argument Clinic. Patch by Louie Lu.

- bpo-31083: IDLE - Add an outline of a TabPage class in configdialog. Update existing classes to match outline. Initial patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-31050: Factor GenPage(Frame) class from ConfigDialog. The slightly modified tests continue to pass. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-30781: IDLE - Use ttk widgets in ConfigDialog. Patches by Terry Jan Reedy and Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-31060: IDLE - Finish rearranging methods of ConfigDialog Grouping methods pertaining to each tab and the buttons will aid writing tests and improving the tabs and will enable splitting the groups into classes.

- bpo-30853: IDLE – Factor a VarTrace class out of ConfigDialog. Instance tracers manages pairs consisting of a tk variable and a callback function. When tracing is turned on, setting the variable calls the function. Test coverage for the new class is 100%.

- bpo-31003: IDLE: Add more tests for General tab.

- bpo-30993: IDLE - Improve configdialog font page and tests. In configdialog: Document causal pathways in create_font_tab docstring. Simplify some attribute names. Move set_samples calls to var_changed_font (idea from Cheryl Sabella). Move related functions to positions after the create widgets function. In test_configdialog: Fix test_font_set so not order dependent. Fix renamed test_indent_scale so it tests the widget. Adjust tests for movement of set_samples call. Add tests for load functions. Put all font tests in one class and tab indent tests in another. Except for two lines, these tests completely cover the related functions.

- bpo-30981: IDLE – Add more configdialog font page tests.

- bpo-28523: IDLE: replace “colour” with “color” in configdialog.

- bpo-30917: Add tests for idlelib.config.IdleConf. Increase coverage from 46% to 96%. Patch by Louie Lu.

- bpo-30934: Document coverage details for idlelib tests. Add section to idlelib/idle-test/README.txt. Include check that branches are taken both ways. Exclude IDLE-specific code that does not run during unit tests.

- bpo-30913: IDLE: Document ConfigDialog tk Vars, methods, and widgets in docstrings This will facilitate improving the dialog and splitting up the class. Original patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-30899: IDLE: Add tests for ConfigParser subclasses in config. Patch by Louie Lu.

- bpo-30881: IDLE: Add docstrings to browser.py. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-30870: IDLE: In Settings dialog, select font with Up, Down keys as well as mouse. Initial patch by Louie Lu.

- bpo-8231: IDLE: call config.IdleConf.GetUserCfgDir only once.

- bpo-30779: IDLE: Factor ConfigChanges class from configdialog, put in config; test. * In config, put dump test code in a function; run it and unittest in “if __name__ == “__main__”. * Add class config.ConfigChanges based on changes_class_v4.py on bpo issue. * Add class test_config.ChangesTest, partly using configdialog_tests_v1.py. * Revise configdialog to use ConfigChanges; see tracker msg297804. * Revise test_configdialog to match configdialog changes. * Remove configdialog functions unused or moved to ConfigChanges. Cheryl Sabella contributed parts of the patch.

- bpo-30777: IDLE: configdialog - Add docstrings and fix comments. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-30495: IDLE: Improve textview with docstrings, PEP8 names, and more tests. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-30723: IDLE: Make several improvements to parenmatch. Add “parens” style to highlight both opener and closer. Make “default” style, which is not default, a synonym for “opener”. Make time-delay work the same with all styles. Add help for config dialog extensions tab, including help for parenmatch. Add new tests. Original patch by Charles Wohlganger.

- bpo-30674: IDLE: add docstrings to grep module. Patch by Cheryl Sabella

- bpo-21519: IDLE’s basic custom key entry dialog now detects duplicates properly. Original patch by Saimadhav Heblikar.

- bpo-29910: IDLE no longer deletes a character after commenting out a region by a key shortcut. Add `return 'break'` for this and other potential conflicts between IDLE and default key bindings.

- bpo-30728: Review and change idlelib.configdialog names. Lowercase method and attribute names. Replace “colour” with “color”, expand overly cryptic names, delete unneeded underscores. Replace `import *` with specific imports. Patches by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-6739: IDLE: Verify user-entered key sequences by trying to bind them with tk. Add tests for all 3 validation functions. Original patch by G Polo. Tests added by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-15786: Fix several problems with IDLE’s autocompletion box. The following should now work: clicking on selection box items; using the scrollbar; selecting an item by hitting Return. Hangs on MacOSX should no longer happen. Patch by Louie Lu.

- bpo-25514: Add doc subsubsection about IDLE failure to start. Popup no-connection message directs users to this section.

- bpo-30642: Fix reference leaks in IDLE tests. Patches by Louie Lu and Terry Jan Reedy.

- bpo-28572: Add 10% to coverage of IDLE’s test_configdialog. Update and augment description of the configuration system.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-30983: gdb integration commands (py-bt, etc.) work on optimized shared builds now, too. PEP 523 introduced _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault which inlines PyEval_EvalFrameEx on non-debug shared builds. This broke the ability to use py-bt, py-up, and a few other Python-specific gdb integrations. The problem is fixed by only looking for _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault frames in python-gdb.py. Original patch by Bruno «Polaco» Penteado.

- bpo-29748: Added the slice index converter in Argument Clinic.

- bpo-24037: Argument Clinic now uses the converter `bool(accept={int})` rather than `int` for semantical booleans. This avoids repeating the default value for Python and C and will help in converting to `bool` in future.

- bpo-29367: python-gdb.py now supports also `method-wrapper` (`wrapperobject`) objects.

- bpo-28023: Fix python-gdb.py didn’t support new dict implementation.

- bpo-28102: The zipfile module CLI now prints usage to stderr. Patch by Stephen J. Turnbull.

### API C

- bpo-31338: Added the `Py_UNREACHABLE()` macro for code paths which are never expected to be reached. This and a few other useful macros are now documented in the C API manual.

- bpo-30832: Remove own implementation for thread-local storage. CPython has provided the own implementation for thread-local storage (TLS) on Python/thread.c, it’s used in the case which a platform has not supplied native TLS. However, currently all supported platforms (Windows and pthreads) have provided native TLS and defined the Py_HAVE_NATIVE_TLS macro with unconditional in any case.

- bpo-30708: PyUnicode_AsWideCharString() now raises a ValueError if the second argument is NULL and the wchar_t* string contains null characters.

- bpo-16500: Deprecate PyOS_AfterFork() and add PyOS_BeforeFork(), PyOS_AfterFork_Parent() and PyOS_AfterFork_Child().

- bpo-6532: The type of results of PyThread_start_new_thread() and PyThread_get_thread_ident(), and the id parameter of PyThreadState_SetAsyncExc() changed from «long» to «unsigned long».

- bpo-27867: Function PySlice_GetIndicesEx() is deprecated and replaced with a macro if Py_LIMITED_API is not set or set to the value between 0x03050400 and 0x03060000 (not including) or 0x03060100 or higher. Added functions PySlice_Unpack() and PySlice_AdjustIndices().

- bpo-29083: Fixed the declaration of some public API functions. PyArg_VaParse() and PyArg_VaParseTupleAndKeywords() were not available in limited API. PyArg_ValidateKeywordArguments(), PyArg_UnpackTuple() and Py_BuildValue() were not available in limited API of version < 3.3 when PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN is defined.

- bpo-28769: The result of PyUnicode_AsUTF8AndSize() and PyUnicode_AsUTF8() is now of type `const char *` rather of `char *`.

- bpo-29058: All stable API extensions added after Python 3.2 are now available only when Py_LIMITED_API is set to the PY_VERSION_HEX value of the minimum Python version supporting this API.

- bpo-28822: The index parameters start and end of PyUnicode_FindChar() are now adjusted to behave like `str[start:end]`.

- bpo-28808: PyUnicode_CompareWithASCIIString() now never raises exceptions.

- bpo-28761: The fields name and doc of structures PyMemberDef, PyGetSetDef, PyStructSequence_Field, PyStructSequence_Desc, and wrapperbase are now of type `const char *` rather of `char *`.

- bpo-28748: Private variable _Py_PackageContext is now of type `const char *` rather of `char *`.

- bpo-19569: Compiler warnings are now emitted if use most of deprecated functions.

- bpo-28426: Deprecated undocumented functions PyUnicode_AsEncodedObject(), PyUnicode_AsDecodedObject(), PyUnicode_AsDecodedUnicode() and PyUnicode_AsEncodedUnicode().

### Mac OS

- bpo-32726: Provide an additional, more modern macOS installer variant that supports macOS 10.9+ systems in 64-bit mode only. Upgrade the supplied third-party libraries to OpenSSL 1.0.2n, XZ 5.2.3, and SQLite 3.22.0. The 10.9+ installer now links with and supplies its own copy of Tcl/Tk 8.6.8.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-32984: Set `__file__` while running a startup file. Like Python, IDLE optionally runs one startup file in the Shell window before presenting the first interactive input prompt. For IDLE, `-s` runs a file named in environmental variable `IDLESTARTUP` or `PYTHONSTARTUP`; `-r file` runs `file`. Python sets `__file__` to the startup file name before running the file and unsets it before the first prompt. IDLE now does the same when run normally, without the `-n` option.

- bpo-32940: Simplify and rename StringTranslatePseudoMapping in pyparse.

- bpo-32826: Add «encoding=utf-8» to open() in IDLE’s test_help_about. GUI test test_file_buttons() only looks at initial ascii-only lines, but failed on systems where open() defaults to “ascii” because readline() internally reads and decodes far enough ahead to encounter a non-ascii character in CREDITS.txt.

- bpo-32765: Update configdialog General tab docstring to add new widgets to the widget list.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-24960: 2to3 and lib2to3 can now read pickled grammar files using pkgutil.get_data() rather than probing the filesystem. This lets 2to3 and lib2to3 work when run from a zipfile.

- bpo-32222: Fix pygettext not extracting docstrings for functions with type annotated arguments. Patch by Toby Harradine.

### API C

- bpo-29084: Undocumented C API for OrderedDict has been excluded from the limited C API. It was added by mistake and actually never worked in the limited C API.

## Python 3.6.4 final

Release date: 2017-12-18

No hubo nuevos cambios de código en la versión 3.6.4 desde v3.6.4rc1.

## Python 3.6.4 versión candidata 1

Release date: 2017-12-05

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-32176: co_flags.CO_NOFREE is now always set correctly by the code object constructor based on freevars and cellvars, rather than needing to be set correctly by the caller. This ensures it will be cleared automatically when additional cell references are injected into a modified code object and function.

- bpo-31949: Fixed several issues in printing tracebacks (PyTraceBack_Print()). 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.

- bpo-30696: Fix the interactive interpreter looping endlessly when no memory.

- bpo-20047: Bytearray methods partition() and rpartition() now accept only bytes-like objects as separator, as documented. In particular they now raise TypeError rather of returning a bogus result when an integer is passed as a separator.

- bpo-31478: Fix an assertion failure in `_random.Random.seed()` in case the argument has a bad `__abs__()` method. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-31315: Fix an assertion failure in imp.create_dynamic(), when spec.name is not a string. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-31311: Fix a crash in the `__setstate__()` method of `ctypes._CData`, in case of a bad `__dict__`. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-31293: Fix crashes in true division and multiplication of a timedelta object by a float with a bad as_integer_ratio() method. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-31285: Fix an assertion failure in `warnings.warn_explicit`, when the return value of the received loader’s get_source() has a bad splitlines() method. Patch by Oren Milman.

- bpo-30817: `PyErr_PrintEx()` clears now the ignored exception that may be raised by `_PySys_SetObjectId()`, for example when no memory.

### Mac OS

- bpo-31392: Update macOS installer to use OpenSSL 1.0.2m

### INACTIVO

- bpo-32207: Improve tk event exception tracebacks in IDLE. When tk event handling is driven by IDLE’s run loop, a confusing and distracting queue.EMPTY traceback context is no longer added to tk event exception tracebacks. The traceback is now the same as when event handling is driven by user code. Patch based on a suggestion by Serhiy Storchaka.

- bpo-32164: Delete unused file idlelib/tabbedpages.py. Use of TabbedPageSet in configdialog was replaced by ttk.Notebook.

- bpo-32100: IDLE: Fix old and new bugs in pathbrowser; improve tests. Patch mostly by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-31858: IDLE – Restrict shell prompt manipulation to the shell. Editor and output windows only see an empty last prompt line. This simplifies the code and fixes a minor bug when newline is inserted. Sys.ps1, if present, is read on Shell start-up, but is not set or changed.

- bpo-31860: The font sample in the IDLE configuration dialog is now editable. Changes persist while IDLE remains open

- bpo-31836: Test_code_module now passes if run after test_idle, which sets ps1. The code module uses sys.ps1 if present or sets it to “>>> “ if not. Test_code_module now properly tests both behaviors. Ditto for ps2.

- bpo-28603: Fix a TypeError that caused a shell restart when printing a traceback that includes an exception that is unhashable. Patch by Zane Bitter.

- bpo-13802: Use non-Latin characters in the IDLE’s Font settings sample. Even if one selects a font that defines a limited subset of the unicode Basic Multilingual Plane, tcl/tk will use other fonts that define a character. The expanded example give users of non-Latin characters a better idea of what they might see in IDLE’s shell and editors. To make room for the expanded sample, frames on the Font tab are re-arranged. The Font/Tabs help explains a bit about the additions.

- bpo-31460: Simplify the API of IDLE’s Module Browser. Passing a widget instead of an flist with a root widget opens the option of creating a browser frame that is only part of a window. Passing a full file name instead of pieces assumed to come from a .py file opens the possibility of browsing python files that do not end in .py.

- bpo-31649: IDLE - Make _htest, _utest parameters keyword only.

- bpo-31559: Remove test order dependence in idle_test.test_browser.

- bpo-31459: Rename IDLE’s module browser from Class Browser to Module Browser. The original module-level class and method browser became a module browser, with the addition of module-level functions, years ago. Nested classes and functions were added yesterday. For back-compatibility, the virtual event <<open-class-browser>>, which appears on the Keys tab of the Settings dialog, is not changed. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-31500: Default fonts now are scaled on HiDPI displays.

- bpo-1612262: IDLE module browser now shows nested classes and functions. Original patches for code and tests by Guilherme Polo and Cheryl Sabella, respectively.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-31532: Fix memory corruption due to allocator mix in getpath.c between Py_GetPath() and Py_SetPath()

- bpo-30697: The `PyExc_RecursionErrorInst` singleton is removed and `PyErr_NormalizeException()` does not use it anymore. This singleton is persistent and its members being never cleared may cause a segfault during finalization of the interpreter. See also bpo-22898.

- bpo-30703: Improve signal delivery. Avoid using Py_AddPendingCall from signal handler, to avoid calling signal-unsafe functions. The tests I’m adding here fail without the rest of the patch, on Linux and OS X. This means our signal delivery logic had defects (some signals could be lost).

- bpo-30765: Avoid blocking in pthread_mutex_lock() when PyThread_acquire_lock() is asked not to block.

- bpo-31161: Make sure the “Missing parentheses” syntax error message is only applied to SyntaxError, not to subclasses. Patch by Martijn Pieters.

- bpo-31247: xmlrpc.server now explicitly breaks reference cycles when using sys.exc_info() in code handling exceptions.

- bpo-30102: The ssl and hashlib modules now call OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() on OpenSSL < 1.1.0. The function detects CPU features and enables optimizations on some CPU architectures such as POWER8. Patch is based on research from Gustavo Serra Scalet.

- bpo-31185: Fixed miscellaneous errors in asyncio speedup module.

- bpo-31135: ttk: fix the destroy() method of LabeledScale and OptionMenu classes. Call the parent destroy() method even if the used attribute doesn’t exist.

- bpo-30319: socket.close() now ignores ECONNRESET error.

- bpo-30828: Fix out of bounds write in `asyncio.CFuture.remove_done_callback()`.

- bpo-30807: signal.setitimer() may disable the timer when passed a tiny value. Tiny values (such as 1e-6) are valid non-zero values for setitimer(), which is specified as taking microsecond-resolution intervals. However, on some platform, our conversion routine could convert 1e-6 into a zero interval, therefore disabling the timer instead of (re-)scheduling it.

- bpo-30822: regrtest: Exclude tzdata from regrtest –all. When running the test suite using –use=all / -u all, exclude tzdata since it makes test_datetime too slow (15-20 min on some buildbots) which then times out on some buildbots. Fix also regrtest command line parser to allow passing -u extralargefile to run test_zipfile64.

### Construir

- bpo-30731: Add a missing xmlns to python.manifest so that it matches the schema.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-31493: IDLE code context – fix code update and font update timers. Canceling timers prevents a warning message when test_idle completes.

- bpo-31488: IDLE - Update non-key options in former extension classes. When applying configdialog changes, call .reload for each feature class. Change ParenMatch so updated options affect existing instances attached to existing editor windows.

- bpo-31477: IDLE - Improve rstrip entry in doc. Strip trailing whitespace strips more than blank spaces. Multiline string literals are not skipped.

- bpo-31480: IDLE - make tests pass with zzdummy extension disabled by default.

- bpo-31421: Document how IDLE runs tkinter programs. IDLE calls tcl/tk update in the background in order to make live interaction and experimentation with tkinter applications much easier.

- bpo-31414: IDLE – fix tk entry box tests by deleting first. Adding to an int entry is not the same as deleting and inserting because int(“”) will fail.

- bpo-31051: Rearrange IDLE configdialog GenPage into Window, Editor, and Help sections.

- bpo-30617: IDLE - Add docstrings and tests for outwin subclass of editor. Move some data and functions from the class to module level. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-31287: IDLE - Do not modify tkinter.message in test_configdialog.

- bpo-27099: Convert IDLE’s built-in “extensions” to regular features. About 10 IDLE features were implemented as supposedly optional extensions. Their different behavior could be confusing or worse for users and not good for maintenance. Hence the conversion. The main difference for users is that user configurable key bindings for builtin features are now handled uniformly. Now, editing a binding in a keyset only affects its value in the keyset. All bindings are defined together in the system-specific default keysets in config-extensions.def. All custom keysets are saved as a whole in config-extension.cfg. All take effect as soon as one clicks Apply or Ok. The affected events are “<<force-open-completions>>”, “<<expand-word>>”, “<<force-open-calltip>>”, “<<flash-paren>>”, “<<format-paragraph>>”, “<<run-module>>”, “<<check-module>>”, and “<<zoom-height>>”. Any (global) customizations made before 3.6.3 will not affect their keyset-specific customization after 3.6.3. and vice versa. Initial patch by Charles Wohlganger.

- bpo-30853: IDLE – Factor a VarTrace class out of ConfigDialog. Instance tracers manages pairs consisting of a tk variable and a callback function. When tracing is turned on, setting the variable calls the function. Test coverage for the new class is 100%.

- bpo-31003: IDLE: Add more tests for General tab.

- bpo-30993: IDLE - Improve configdialog font page and tests. In configdialog: Document causal pathways in create_font_tab docstring. Simplify some attribute names. Move set_samples calls to var_changed_font (idea from Cheryl Sabella). Move related functions to positions after the create widgets function. In test_configdialog: Fix test_font_set so not order dependent. Fix renamed test_indent_scale so it tests the widget. Adjust tests for movement of set_samples call. Add tests for load functions. Put all font tests in one class and tab indent tests in another. Except for two lines, these tests completely cover the related functions.

- bpo-30981: IDLE – Add more configdialog font page tests.

- bpo-28523: IDLE: replace “colour” with “color” in configdialog.

- bpo-30917: Add tests for idlelib.config.IdleConf. Increase coverage from 46% to 96%. Patch by Louie Lu.

- bpo-30934: Document coverage details for idlelib tests. Add section to idlelib/idle-test/README.txt. Include check that branches are taken both ways. Exclude IDLE-specific code that does not run during unit tests.

Cheryl Sabella contributed parts of the patch.

- bpo-30777: IDLE: configdialog - Add docstrings and fix comments. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-30495: IDLE: Improve textview with docstrings, PEP8 names, and more tests. Patch by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-30723: IDLE: Make several improvements to parenmatch. Add “parens” style to highlight both opener and closer. Make “default” style, which is not default, a synonym for “opener”. Make time-delay work the same with all styles. Add help for config dialog extensions tab, including help for parenmatch. Add new tests. Original patch by Charles Wohlganger.

- bpo-30674: IDLE: add docstrings to grep module. Patch by Cheryl Sabella

- bpo-21519: IDLE’s basic custom key entry dialog now detects duplicates properly. Original patch by Saimadhav Heblikar.

- bpo-29910: IDLE no longer deletes a character after commenting out a region by a key shortcut. Add `return 'break'` for this and other potential conflicts between IDLE and default key bindings.

- bpo-30728: Review and change idlelib.configdialog names. Lowercase method and attribute names. Replace “colour” with “color”, expand overly cryptic names, delete unneeded underscores. Replace `import *` with specific imports. Patches by Cheryl Sabella.

- bpo-6739: IDLE: Verify user-entered key sequences by trying to bind them with tk. Add tests for all 3 validation functions. Original patch by G Polo. Tests added by Cheryl Sabella.

### Herramientas / Demos

- bpo-30983: gdb integration commands (py-bt, etc.) work on optimized shared builds now, too. PEP 523 introduced _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault which inlines PyEval_EvalFrameEx on non-debug shared builds. This broke the ability to use py-bt, py-up, and a few other Python-specific gdb integrations. The problem is fixed by only looking for _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault frames in python-gdb.py. Original patch by Bruno «Polaco» Penteado.

- bpo-30694: Upgrade expat copy from 2.2.0 to 2.2.1 to get fixes of multiple security vulnerabilities including: CVE-2017-9233 (External entity infinite loop DoS), CVE-2016-9063 (Integer overflow, re-fix), CVE-2016-0718 (Fix regression bugs from 2.2.0’s fix to CVE-2016-0718) and CVE-2012-0876 (Counter hash flooding with SipHash). Note: the CVE-2016-5300 (Use os-specific entropy sources like getrandom) doesn’t impact Python, since Python already gets entropy from the OS to set the expat secret using `XML_SetHashSalt()`.

- bpo-30500: Fix urllib.parse.splithost() to correctly parse fragments. For example, `splithost('//127.0.0.1#@evil.com/')` now correctly returns the `127.0.0.1` host, instead of treating `@evil.com` as the host in an authentication (`login@host`).

### Ventanas

- bpo-30687: Locate msbuild.exe on Windows when building rather than vcvarsall.bat

- bpo-30450: The build process on Windows no longer depends on Subversion, instead pulling external code from GitHub via a Python script. If Python 3.6 is not found on the system (via `py -3.6`), NuGet is used to download a copy of 32-bit Python.

## Python 3.6.1 final

Release date: 2017-03-21

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-29723: The `sys.path[0]` initialization change for bpo-29139 caused a regression by revealing an inconsistency in how sys.path is initialized when executing `__main__` from a zipfile, directory, or other import location. The interpreter now consistently avoids ever adding the import location’s parent directory to `sys.path`, and ensures no other `sys.path` entries are inadvertently modified when inserting the import location named on the command line.

- bpo-26154: Add a new private _PyThreadState_UncheckedGet() function to get the current Python thread state, but don’t issue a fatal error if it is NULL. This new function must be used instead of accessing directly the _PyThreadState_Current variable. The variable is no more exposed since Python 3.5.1 to hide the exact implementation of atomic C types, to avoid compiler issues.

- bpo-25791: If __package__ != __spec__.parent or if neither __package__ or __spec__ are defined then ImportWarning is raised.

Suspend and resume the gui.interaction method with the tcl vwait mechanism intended for this purpose (instead of root.mainloop & .quit). 2. In gui.run, allow any existing interaction to terminate first.

- Cambie “El programa” a “Su programa” en un IDLE “¿programa de muerte?” mensaje para dejar más claro que el programa al que se hace referencia es el programa de usuario que se está ejecutando actualmente, no IDLE en sí.

- bpo-24820: IDLE now has an “IDLE Dark” built-in text color theme. It is more or less IDLE Classic inverted, with a cobalt blue background. Strings, comments, keywords, … are still green, red, orange, … . To use it with IDLEs released before November 2015, hit the “Save as New Custom Theme” button and enter a new name, such as “Custom Dark”. The custom theme will work with any IDLE release, and can be modified.

## Python 3.5.5 final

Release date: 2018-02-04

No hubo nuevos cambios en la versión 3.5.5.

## Python 3.5.5 versión candidata 1

Release date: 2018-01-23

### Seguridad

- bpo-32551: The `sys.path[0]` initialization change for bpo-29139 caused a regression by revealing an inconsistency in how sys.path is initialized when executing `__main__` from a zipfile, directory, or other import location. This is considered a potential security issue, as it may lead to privileged processes unexpectedly loading code from user controlled directories in situations where that was not previously the case. The interpreter now consistently avoids ever adding the import location’s parent directory to `sys.path`, and ensures no other `sys.path` entries are inadvertently modified when inserting the import location named on the command line. (Originally reported as bpo-29723 against Python 3.6rc1, but it was missed at the time that the then upcoming Python 3.5.4 release would also be affected)

- bpo-30657: Fixed possible integer overflow in PyBytes_DecodeEscape, CVE-2017-1000158. Original patch by Jay Bosamiya; rebased to Python 3 by Miro Hrončok.

- bpo-30947: Upgrade libexpat embedded copy from version 2.2.1 to 2.2.3 to get security fixes.

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

## Python 3.5.4 final

Release date: 2017-08-07

### Biblioteca

## Python 3.5.4 versión candidata 1

Release date: 2017-07-23

### Seguridad

- bpo-30730: Prevent environment variables injection in subprocess on Windows. Prevent passing other environment variables and command arguments.

- bpo-30694: Upgrade expat copy from 2.2.0 to 2.2.1 to get fixes of multiple security vulnerabilities including: CVE-2017-9233 (External entity infinite loop DoS), CVE-2016-9063 (Integer overflow, re-fix), CVE-2016-0718 (Fix regression bugs from 2.2.0’s fix to CVE-2016-0718) and CVE-2012-0876 (Counter hash flooding with SipHash). Note: the CVE-2016-5300 (Use os-specific entropy sources like getrandom) doesn’t impact Python, since Python already gets entropy from the OS to set the expat secret using `XML_SetHashSalt()`.

- bpo-30500: Fix urllib.parse.splithost() to correctly parse fragments. For example, `splithost('//127.0.0.1#@evil.com/')` now correctly returns the `127.0.0.1` host, instead of treating `@evil.com` as the host in an authentication (`login@host`).

- bpo-29591: Update expat copy from 2.1.1 to 2.2.0 to get fixes of CVE-2016-0718 and CVE-2016-4472. See https://sourceforge.net/p/expat/bugs/537/ for more information.

Release date: 2015-11-22

### Núcleo y elementos integrados

- bpo-25630: Fix a possible segfault during argument parsing in functions that accept filesystem paths.

- bpo-23564: Fixed a partially broken sanity check in the _posixsubprocess internals regarding how fds_to_pass were passed to the child. The bug had no actual impact as subprocess.py already avoided it.

- bpo-25388: Fixed tokenizer crash when processing undecodable source code with a null byte.

- bpo-25462: The hash of the key now is calculated only once in most operations in C implementation of OrderedDict.

- bpo-22995: Default implementation of __reduce__ and __reduce_ex__ now rejects builtin types with not defined __new__.

- bpo-25555: Fix parser and AST: fill lineno and col_offset of «arg» node when compiling AST from Python objects.

- bpo-24802: Avoid buffer overreads when int(), float(), compile(), exec() and eval() are passed bytes-like objects. These objects are not necessarily terminated by a null byte, but the functions assumed they were.

- bpo-24726: Fixed a crash and leaking NULL in repr() of OrderedDict that was mutated by direct calls of dict methods.

- bpo-25449: Iterating OrderedDict with keys with unstable hash now raises KeyError in C implementations as well as in Python implementation.

- bpo-25395: Fixed crash when highly nested OrderedDict structures were garbage collected.

- bpo-25274: sys.setrecursionlimit() now raises a RecursionError if the new recursion limit is too low depending at the current recursion depth. Modify also the «lower-water mark» formula to make it monotonic. This mark is used to decide when the overflowed flag of the thread state is reset.

- bpo-25182: The stdprinter (used as sys.stderr before the io module is imported at startup) now uses the backslashreplace error handler.

- bpo-25131: Make the line number and column offset of set/dict literals and comprehensions correspond to the opening brace.

- bpo-25150: Hide the private _Py_atomic_xxx symbols from the public Python.h header to fix a compilation error with OpenMP. PyThreadState_GET() becomes an alias to PyThreadState_Get() to avoid ABI incompatibilities.

### Biblioteca

- bpo-25626: Change three zlib functions to accept sizes that fit in Py_ssize_t, but internally cap those sizes to UINT_MAX. This resolves a regression in 3.5 where GzipFile.read() failed to read chunks larger than 2 or 4 GiB. The change affects the zlib.Decompress.decompress() max_length parameter, the zlib.decompress() bufsize parameter, and the zlib.Decompress.flush() length parameter.

- bpo-25380: Fixed protocol for the STACK_GLOBAL opcode in pickletools.opcodes.

- bpo-23972: Updates asyncio datagram create method allowing reuseport and reuseaddr socket options to be set prior to binding the socket. Mirroring the existing asyncio create_server method the reuseaddr option for datagram sockets defaults to True if the O/S is “posix” (except if the platform is Cygwin). Patch by Chris Laws.

- bpo-25304: Add asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe(). This lets you submit a coroutine to a loop from another thread, returning a concurrent.futures.Future. By Vincent Michel.

- bpo-25232: Fix CGIRequestHandler to split the query from the URL at the first question mark (?) rather than the last. Patch from Xiang Zhang.

It’s important that these methods use the same rounding mode than datetime.timedelta to keep the property: (datetime(1970,1,1) + timedelta(seconds=t)) == datetime.utcfromtimestamp(t). It also the rounding mode used by round(float) for example.

- bpo-25155: Fix datetime.datetime.now() and datetime.datetime.utcnow() on Windows to support date after year 2038. It was a regression introduced in Python 3.5.0.

### INACTIVO

- bpo-15348: Stop the debugger engine (normally in a user process) before closing the debugger window (running in the IDLE process). This prevents the RuntimeErrors that were being caught and ignored.

- bpo-24455: Prevent IDLE from hanging when a) closing the shell while the debugger is active (15347); b) closing the debugger with the [X] button (15348); and c) activating the debugger when already active (24455). The patch by Mark Roseman does this by making two changes. 1. Suspend and resume the gui.interaction method with the tcl vwait mechanism intended for this purpose (instead of root.mainloop & .quit). 2. In gui.run, allow any existing interaction to terminate first.

- Cambie “El programa” a “Su programa” en un IDLE “¿programa de muerte?” mensaje para dejar más claro que el programa al que se hace referencia es el programa de usuario que se está ejecutando actualmente, no IDLE en sí.

- bpo-24750: Improve the appearance of the IDLE editor window status bar. Patch by Mark Roseman.

- bpo-25313: Change the handling of new built-in text color themes to better address the compatibility problem introduced by the addition of IDLE Dark. Consistently use the revised idleConf.CurrentTheme everywhere in idlelib.

- bpo-24782: Extension configuration is now a tab in the IDLE Preferences dialog rather than a separate dialog. The former tabs are now a sorted list. Patch by Mark Roseman.

- bpo-22726: Re-activate the config dialog help button with some content about the other buttons and the new IDLE Dark theme.

- bpo-24820: IDLE now has an “IDLE Dark” built-in text color theme. It is more or less IDLE Classic inverted, with a cobalt blue background. Strings, comments, keywords, … are still green, red, orange, … . To use it with IDLEs released before November 2015, hit the “Save as New Custom Theme” button and enter a new name, such as “Custom Dark”. The custom theme will work with any IDLE release, and can be modified.

- bpo-25224: README.txt is now an idlelib index for IDLE developers and curious users. The previous user content is now in the IDLE doc chapter. “IDLE” now means “Integrated Development and Learning Environment”.

- bpo-24820: Users can now set breakpoint colors in Settings -> Custom Highlighting. Original patch by Mark Roseman.

- bpo-24972: Inactive selection background now matches active selection background, as configured by users, on all systems. Found items are now always highlighted on Windows. Initial patch by Mark Roseman.

- bpo-25199: Idle: add synchronization comments for future maintainers.

- bpo-16893: Replace help.txt with help.html for Idle doc display. The new idlelib/help.html is rstripped Doc/build/html/library/idle.html. It looks better than help.txt and will better document Idle as released. The tkinter html viewer that works for this file was written by Mark Roseman. The now unused EditorWindow.HelpDialog class and helt.txt file are deprecated.

- bpo-24199: Deprecate unused idlelib.idlever with possible removal in 3.6.

When Class Browser is requested otherwise, from a shell, output window, or “Untitled” editor, Idle no longer displays an error box. It now pops up an Open Module box (Alt+M). If a valid name is entered and a module is opened, a corresponding browser is also opened.

- bpo-4832: Save As to type Python files automatically adds .py to the name you enter (even if your system does not display it). Some systems automatically add .txt when type is Text files.

- bpo-21958: Define HAVE_ROUND when building with Visual Studio 2013 and above. Patch by Zachary Turner.

- bpo-18093: the programs that embed the CPython runtime are now in a separate «Programs» directory, rather than being kept in the Modules directory.

- bpo-15759: «make suspicious», «make linkcheck» and «make doctest» in Doc/ now display special message when and only when there are failures.

- bpo-21141: The Windows build process no longer attempts to find Perl, instead relying on OpenSSL source being configured and ready to build. The `PCbuild\build_ssl.py` script has been re-written and re-named to `PCbuild\prepare_ssl.py`, and takes care of configuring OpenSSL source for both 32 and 64 bit platforms. OpenSSL sources obtained from svn.python.org will always be pre-configured and ready to build.

- bpo-21037: Add a build option to enable AddressSanitizer support.

- bpo-19962: The Windows build process now creates «python.bat» in the root of the source tree, which passes all arguments through to the most recently built interpreter.

### API C

- bpo-14203: Remove obsolete support for view==NULL in PyBuffer_FillInfo(), bytearray_getbuffer(), bytesiobuf_getbuffer() and array_buffer_getbuf(). All functions now raise BufferError in that case.

- bpo-22445: PyBuffer_IsContiguous() now implements precise contiguity tests, compatible with NumPy’s NPY_RELAXED_STRIDES_CHECKING compilation flag. Previously the function reported false negatives for corner cases.

- bpo-20942: PyImport_ImportFrozenModuleObject() no longer sets __file__ to match what importlib does; this affects _frozen_importlib as well as any module loaded using imp.init_frozen().

### Documentación

- bpo-19548: Update the codecs module documentation to better cover the distinction between text encodings and other codecs, together with other clarifications. Patch by Martin Panter.
