   ん。

   バージョン 3.10 で追加.


3.1.2. Install Options
----------------------

--prefix=PREFIX

   Install architecture-independent files in PREFIX. On Unix, it
   defaults to "/usr/local".

   バージョン 3.6 で追加.


3.1.3. Performance options
--------------------------

Python の構成は、 "--enable-optimizations --with-lto" (PGO + LTO)を使
用すると、最高のパフォーマンスが得られます。

--enable-optimizations

   "PROFILE_TASK" を使用して Profile Guided Optimization (PGO) を有効
   にします(デフォルトでは無効です)。

   Cコンパイラの Clang では、 PGO のために "llvm-profdata" プログラム
   が必要です。macOS では、 GCC もこれを必要とします: GCC は macOS の
   Clang のエイリアスにすぎません。

   Disable also semantic interposition in libpython if "--enable-
   shared" and GCC is used: add "-fno-semantic-interposition" to the
   compiler and linker flags.

   バージョン 3.6 で追加.

   バージョン 3.10 で変更: GCC で "-fno-semantic-interposition" を使用
   する。

PROFILE_TASK

   Environment variable used in the Makefile: Python command line
   arguments for the PGO generation task.

   Default: "-m test --pgo --timeout=$(TESTTIMEOUT)".

   バージョン 3.8 で追加.

--with-lto

   Enable Link Time Optimization (LTO) in any build (disabled by
   default).

   The C compiler Clang requires "llvm-ar" for LTO ("ar" on macOS), as
   well as an LTO-aware linker ("ld.gold" or "lld").

   バージョン 3.6 で追加.

--with-computed-gotos

   Enable computed gotos in evaluation loop (enabled by default on
   supported compilers).

--without-pymalloc

   Disable the specialized Python memory allocator pymalloc (enabled
   by default).

   See also "PYTHONMALLOC" environment variable.

--without-doc-strings

   Disable static documentation strings to reduce the memory footprint
   (enabled by default). Documentation strings defined in Python are
   not affected.

   Don't define the "WITH_DOC_STRINGS" macro.

   See the "PyDoc_STRVAR()" macro.

--enable-profiling

   Enable C-level code profiling with "gprof" (disabled by default).


3.1.4. Python Debug Build
-------------------------

A debug build is Python built with the "--with-pydebug" configure
option.

Effects of a debug build:

* Display all warnings by default: the list of default warning filters
  is empty in the "warnings" module.

* Add "d" to "sys.abiflags".

* Add "sys.gettotalrefcount()" function.

* Add "-X showrefcount" command line option.

* Add "PYTHONTHREADDEBUG" environment variable.

* Add support for the "__ltrace__" variable: enable low-level tracing
  in the bytecode evaluation loop if the variable is defined.

* Install debug hooks on memory allocators to detect buffer overflow
  and other memory errors.

* Define "Py_DEBUG" and "Py_REF_DEBUG" macros.

* Add runtime checks: code surroundeded by "#ifdef Py_DEBUG" and
  "#endif". Enable "assert(...)" and "_PyObject_ASSERT(...)"
  assertions: don't set the "NDEBUG" macro (see also the "--with-
  assertions" configure option). Main runtime checks:

  * Add sanity checks on the function arguments.

  * Unicode and int objects are created with their memory filled with
    a pattern to detect usage of uninitialized objects.

  * Ensure that functions which can clear or replace the current
    exception are not called with an exception raised.

  * The garbage collector ("gc.collect()" function) runs some basic
    checks on objects consistency.

  * The "Py_SAFE_DOWNCAST()" macro checks for integer underflow and
    overflow when downcasting from wide types to narrow types.

See also the Python Development Mode and the "--with-trace-refs"
configure option.

バージョン 3.8 で変更: Release builds and debug builds are now ABI
compatible: defining the "Py_DEBUG" macro no longer implies the
"Py_TRACE_REFS" macro (see the "--with-trace-refs" option), which
introduces the only ABI incompatibility.


3.1.5. Debug options
--------------------

--with-pydebug

   Build Python in debug mode: define the "Py_DEBUG" macro (disabled
   by default).

--with-trace-refs

   Enable tracing references for debugging purpose (disabled by
   default).

   Effects:

   * Define the "Py_TRACE_REFS" macro.

   * Add "sys.getobjects()" function.

   * Add "PYTHONDUMPREFS" environment variable.

   This build is not ABI compatible with release build (default build)
   or debug build ("Py_DEBUG" and "Py_REF_DEBUG" macros).

   バージョン 3.8 で追加.

--with-assertions

   Build with C assertions enabled (default is no): "assert(...);" and
   "_PyObject_ASSERT(...);".

   If set, the "NDEBUG" macro is not defined in the "OPT" compiler
   variable.

   See also the "--with-pydebug" option (debug build) which also
   enables assertions.

   バージョン 3.6 で追加.

--with-valgrind

   Enable Valgrind support (default is no).

--with-dtrace

   Enable DTrace support (default is no).

   See Instrumenting CPython with DTrace and SystemTap.

   * "all".

--with-framework-name=FRAMEWORK

   Specify the name for the python framework on macOS only valid when
   "--enable-framework" is set (default: "Python").


3.2. Python Build System
========================


3.2.1. Main files of the build system
-------------------------------------

* "configure.ac" => "configure";

* "Makefile.pre.in" => "Makefile" (created by "configure");

* "pyconfig.h" (created by "configure");

* "Modules/Setup": C extensions built by the Makefile using
  "Module/makesetup" shell script;

* "setup.py": C extensions built using the "distutils" module.


3.2.2. Main build steps
-----------------------

* C files (".c") are built as object files (".o").

* A static "libpython" library (".a") is created from objects files.

* "python.o" and the static "libpython" library are linked into the
  final "python" program.

* C extensions are built by the Makefile (see "Modules/Setup") and
  "python setup.py build".


3.2.3. Main Makefile targets
----------------------------

* "make": Build Python with the standard library.

* "make platform:": build the "python" program, but don't build the
  standard library extension modules.

* "make profile-opt": build Python using Profile Guided Optimization
  (PGO). You can use the configure "--enable-optimizations" option to
  make this the default target of the "make" command ("make all" or
  just "make").

* "make buildbottest": Build Python and run the Python test suite, the
  same way than buildbots test Python. Set "TESTTIMEOUT" variable (in
  seconds) to change the test timeout (1200 by default: 20 minutes).

* "make install": Build and install Python.

* "make regen-all": Regenerate (almost) all generated files; "make
  regen-stdlib-module-names" and "autoconf" must be run separately for
  the remaining generated files.

* "make clean": Remove built files.

* "make distclean": Same than "make clean", but remove also files
  created by the configure script.


3.2.4. C extensions
-------------------

Some C extensions are built as built-in modules, like the "sys"
module. They are built with the "Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN" macro defined.
Built-in modules have no "__file__" attribute:

   >>> import sys
   >>> sys
   <module 'sys' (built-in)>
   >>> sys.__file__
   Traceback (most recent call last):
     File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
   AttributeError: module 'sys' has no attribute '__file__'

Other C extensins are built as dynamic libraries, like the "_asyncio"
module. They are built with the "Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE" macro defined.
Example on Linux x86-64:

   >>> import _asyncio
   >>> _asyncio
   <module '_asyncio' from '/usr/lib64/python3.9/lib-dynload/_asyncio.cpython-39-x86_64-linux-gnu.so'>
   >>> _asyncio.__file__
   '/usr/lib64/python3.9/lib-dynload/_asyncio.cpython-39-x86_64-linux-gnu.so'

"Modules/Setup" is used to generate Makefile targets to build C
extensions. At the beginning of the files, C extensions are built as
built-in modules. Extensions defined after the "*shared*" marker are
built as dynamic libraries.

The "setup.py" script only builds C extensions as shared libraries
using the "distutils" module.

The "PyAPI_FUNC()", "PyAPI_API()" and "PyMODINIT_FUNC()" macros of
"Include/pyport.h" are defined differently depending if the
"Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE" macro is defined:

* Use "Py_EXPORTED_SYMBOL" if the "Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE" is defined

* Use "Py_IMPORTED_SYMBOL" otherwise.

If the "Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN" macro is used by mistake on a C
extension built as a shared library, its "PyInit_xxx()" function is
not exported, causing an "ImportError" on import.


3.3. Compiler and linker flags
==============================

Options set by the "./configure" script and environment variables and
used by "Makefile".


3.3.1. Preprocessor flags
-------------------------

CONFIGURE_CPPFLAGS

   Value of "CPPFLAGS" variable passed to the "./configure" script.

   バージョン 3.6 で追加.

CPPFLAGS

   (Objective) C/C++ preprocessor flags, e.g. "-I<include dir>" if you
   have headers in a nonstandard directory "<include dir>".

   Both "CPPFLAGS" and "LDFLAGS" need to contain the shell's value for
   setup.py to be able to build extension modules using the
   directories specified in the environment variables.

BASECPPFLAGS

   バージョン 3.4 で追加.

PY_CPPFLAGS

   Extra preprocessor flags added for building the interpreter object
   files.

   Default: "$(BASECPPFLAGS) -I. -I$(srcdir)/Include
   $(CONFIGURE_CPPFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS)".

   バージョン 3.2 で追加.


3.3.2. Compiler flags
---------------------

CC

   C compiler command.

   Example: "gcc -pthread".

MAINCC

   C compiler command used to build the "main()" function of programs
   like "python".

   Variable set by the "--with-cxx-main" option of the configure
   script.

   Default: "$(CC)".

CXX

   C++ compiler command.

   Used if the "--with-cxx-main" option is used.

   Example: "g++ -pthread".

CFLAGS

   C compiler flags.

CFLAGS_NODIST

   "CFLAGS_NODIST" is used for building the interpreter and stdlib C
   extensions.  Use it when a compiler flag should *not* be part of
   the distutils "CFLAGS" once Python is installed (bpo-21121).

   In particular, "CFLAGS" should not contain:

   * the compiler flag "-I" (for setting the search path for include
     files). The "-I" flags are processed from left to right, and any
     flags in "CFLAGS" would take precedence over user- and package-
     supplied "-I" flags.

   * hardening flags such as "-Werror" because distributions cannot
     control whether packages installed by users conform to such
     heightened standards.

   バージョン 3.5 で追加.

EXTRA_CFLAGS

   Extra C compiler flags.

CONFIGURE_CFLAGS

   Value of "CFLAGS" variable passed to the "./configure" script.

   バージョン 3.2 で追加.

CONFIGURE_CFLAGS_NODIST

   Value of "CFLAGS_NODIST" variable passed to the "./configure"
   script.

   バージョン 3.5 で追加.

BASECFLAGS

   Base compiler flags.

OPT

   Optimization flags.

CFLAGS_ALIASING

   Strict or non-strict aliasing flags used to compile
   "Python/dtoa.c".

   バージョン 3.7 で追加.

CCSHARED

   Compiler flags used to build a shared library.

   For example, "-fPIC" is used on Linux and on BSD.

CFLAGSFORSHARED

   Extra C flags added for building the interpreter object files.

   Default: "$(CCSHARED)" when "--enable-shared" is used, or an empty
   string otherwise.

PY_CFLAGS

   Default: "$(BASECFLAGS) $(OPT) $(CONFIGURE_CFLAGS) $(CFLAGS)
   $(EXTRA_CFLAGS)".

PY_CFLAGS_NODIST

   Default: "$(CONFIGURE_CFLAGS_NODIST) $(CFLAGS_NODIST)
   -I$(srcdir)/Include/internal".

   バージョン 3.5 で追加.

PY_STDMODULE_CFLAGS

   C flags used for building the interpreter object files.

   Default: "$(PY_CFLAGS) $(PY_CFLAGS_NODIST) $(PY_CPPFLAGS)
   $(CFLAGSFORSHARED)".

   バージョン 3.7 で追加.

PY_CORE_CFLAGS

   Default: "$(PY_STDMODULE_CFLAGS) -DPy_BUILD_CORE".

   バージョン 3.2 で追加.

PY_BUILTIN_MODULE_CFLAGS

   Compiler flags to build a standard library extension module as a
   built-in module, like the "posix" module.

   Default: "$(PY_STDMODULE_CFLAGS) -DPy_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN".

   バージョン 3.8 で追加.

PURIFY

   Purify command. Purify is a memory debugger program.

   Default: empty string (not used).


3.3.3. Linker flags
-------------------

LINKCC

   Linker command used to build programs like "python" and
   "_testembed".

   Default: "$(PURIFY) $(MAINCC)".

CONFIGURE_LDFLAGS

   Value of "LDFLAGS" variable passed to the "./configure" script.

   Avoid assigning "CFLAGS", "LDFLAGS", etc. so users can use them on
   the command line to append to these values without stomping the
   pre-set values.

   バージョン 3.2 で追加.

LDFLAGS_NODIST

   "LDFLAGS_NODIST" is used in the same manner as "CFLAGS_NODIST".
   Use it when a linker flag should *not* be part of the distutils
   "LDFLAGS" once Python is installed (bpo-35257).

   In particular, "LDFLAGS" should not contain:

   * the compiler flag "-L" (for setting the search path for
     libraries). The "-L" flags are processed from left to right, and
     any flags in "LDFLAGS" would take precedence over user- and
     package-supplied "-L" flags.

CONFIGURE_LDFLAGS_NODIST

   Value of "LDFLAGS_NODIST" variable passed to the "./configure"
   script.

   バージョン 3.8 で追加.

LDFLAGS

   Linker flags, e.g. "-L<lib dir>" if you have libraries in a
   nonstandard directory "<lib dir>".

   Both "CPPFLAGS" and "LDFLAGS" need to contain the shell's value for
   setup.py to be able to build extension modules using the
   directories specified in the environment variables.

LIBS

   Linker flags to pass libraries to the linker when linking the
   Python executable.

   Example: "-lrt".

   Default: "$(CONFIGURE_LDFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS)".

PY_LDFLAGS_NODIST

   Default: "$(CONFIGURE_LDFLAGS_NODIST) $(LDFLAGS_NODIST)".

   バージョン 3.8 で追加.

PY_CORE_LDFLAGS

   Linker flags used for building the interpreter object files.

   バージョン 3.8 で追加.
