Changelog

Python 3.6.15 final

Release date: 2021-09-03

Segurança

• bpo-44394: Update the vendored copy of libexpat to 2.4.1 (from 2.2.8) to get the fix for the CVE-2013-0340 “Billion Laughs” vulnerability. This copy is most used on Windows and macOS.

• bpo-43124: Made the internal putcmd function in smtplib sanitize input for presence of \r and \n characters to avoid (unlikely) command injection.

Biblioteca

• bpo-45001: Made email date parsing more robust against malformed input, namely a whitespace-only Date: header. Patch by Wouter Bolsterlee.

Testes

• 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.

Python 3.6.14 final

Release date: 2021-06-28

Segurança

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

• 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-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-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-42103: Prevented potential DoS attack via CPU and RAM exhaustion when processing malformed Apple Property List files in binary format.

• bpo-42051: The plistlib module no longer accepts entity declarations in XML plist files to avoid XML vulnerabilities. This should not affect users as entity declarations are not used in regular plist files.

• bpo-40791: Add volatile to the accumulator variable in hmac.compare_digest, making constant-time-defeating optimizations less likely.

Núcleo e Builtins

• bpo-35560: Fix an assertion error in format() in debug build for floating point formatting with “n” format, zero padding and small width. Release build is not impacted. Patch by Karthikeyan Singaravelan.

• bpo-41004: CVE-2020-14422: 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(…).

Biblioteca

Testes

• 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-34047: Fixed mousewheel scrolling direction on macOS.

• 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-32588: Create standalone _distutils_findvs module.

macOS

• 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.

IDLE

• 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-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.

Ferramentas/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.

• bpo-31944: Fixes Modify button in Apps and Features dialog.

macOS

• bpo-31392: Update macOS installer to use OpenSSL 1.0.2m

IDLE

• 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.

Ferramentas/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.

Python 3.6.3 final

• 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-28958: ssl.SSLContext() now uses OpenSSL error information when a context cannot be instantiated.

• bpo-27340: SSLSocket.sendall() now uses memoryview to create slices of data. This fixes support for all bytes-like object. It is also more efficient and avoids costly copies.

• bpo-31178: Fix string concatenation bug in rare error path in the subprocess module

• bpo-31350: Micro-optimize asyncio._get_running_loop() to become up to 10% faster.

• bpo-31170: expat: Update libexpat from 2.2.3 to 2.2.4. Fix copying of partial characters for UTF-8 input (libexpat bug 115): https://github.com/libexpat/libexpat/issues/115

• bpo-29136: Add TLS 1.3 cipher suites and OP_NO_TLSv1_3.

• bpo-29212: Fix concurrent.futures.thread.ThreadPoolExecutor threads to have a non repr() based thread name by default when no thread_name_prefix is supplied. They will now identify themselves as “ThreadPoolExecutor-y_n”.

• bpo-9146: Fix a segmentation fault in _hashopenssl when standard hash functions such as md5 are not available in the linked OpenSSL library. As in some special FIPS-140 build environments.

• bpo-27144: The map() and as_completed() iterators in concurrent.futures now avoid keeping a reference to yielded objects.

• bpo-22536: The subprocess module now sets the filename when FileNotFoundError is raised on POSIX systems due to the executable or cwd not being found.

• bpo-31249: concurrent.futures: WorkItem.run() used by ThreadPoolExecutor now breaks a reference cycle between an exception object and the WorkItem object.

• 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-30441: Fix bug when modifying os.environ while iterating over it

• bpo-30532: Fix email header value parser dropping folding white space in certain cases.

• bpo-30879: os.listdir() and os.scandir() now emit bytes names when called with bytes-like argument.

• bpo-30715: Address ALPN callback changes for OpenSSL 1.1.0f. The latest version behaves like OpenSSL 1.0.2 and no longer aborts handshake.

• 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.

Compilação

• bpo-30854: Fix compile error when compiling –without-threads. Patch by Masayuki Yamamoto.

Windows

• bpo-30389: Adds detection of Visual Studio 2017 to distutils on Windows.

• bpo-31340: Change to building with MSVC v141 (included with Visual Studio 2017)

• bpo-30731: Add a missing xmlns to python.manifest so that it matches the schema.

IDLE

• 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.

  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.

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-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.

Ferramentas/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-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-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.

Documentação

• bpo-30176: Add missing attribute related constants in curses documentation.

• bpo-30052: the link targets for bytes() and bytearray() are now their respective type definitions, rather than the corresponding builtin function entries. 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.

Ferramentas/Demos

• bpo-29367: python-gdb.py now supports also method-wrapper (wrapperobject) objects.

• bpo-30197: Enhanced functions swap_attr() and swap_item() in the test.support module. They now work when delete replaced attribute or item inside the with statement. The old value of the attribute or item (or None if it doesn’t exist) now will be assigned to the target of the “as” clause, if there is one.

Windows

• 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.

• 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.

Compilação

• bpo-27593: fix format of git information used in sys.version

• Corrigir comentário incompatível em python.h

Release date: 2016-09-12

Núcleo e Builtins

• bpo-23722: The __class__ cell used by zero-argument super() is now initialized from type.__new__ rather than __build_class__, so class methods relying on that will now work correctly when called from metaclass methods during class creation. Patch by Martin Teichmann.

• bpo-17884: Python now requires systems with inttypes.h and stdint.h

• bpo-27961: Require platforms to support long long. Python hasn’t compiled without long long for years, so this is basically a formality.

• bpo-4806: Avoid masking the original TypeError exception when using star (*) unpacking in function calls. Based on patch by Hagen Fürstenau and Daniel Urban.

• bpo-26146: Add a new kind of AST node: ast.Constant. It can be used by external AST optimizers, but the compiler does not emit directly such node.

• bpo-23601: Sped-up allocation of dict key objects by using Python’s small object allocator. (Contributed by Julian Taylor.)

• bpo-18018: Import raises ImportError instead of SystemError if a relative import is attempted without a known parent package.

• bpo-25843: When compiling code, don’t merge constants if they are equal but have a different types. For example, f1, f2 = lambda: 1, lambda: 1.0 is now correctly compiled to two different functions: f1() returns 1 (int) and f2() returns 1.0 (float), even if 1 and 1.0 are equal.

• bpo-26107: The format of the co_lnotab attribute of code objects changes to support negative line number delta.

• 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.

• bpo-22995: [UPDATE] Comment out the one of the pickleability tests in _PyObject_GetState() due to regressions observed in Cython-based projects.

• 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-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-25555: Fix parser and AST: fill lineno and col_offset of “arg” node when compiling AST from Python objects.

• bpo-24726: Fixed a crash and leaking NULL in repr() of OrderedDict that was mutated by direct calls of dict methods.

• bpo-25399: Optimize bytearray % args using the new private _PyBytesWriter API. Formatting is now between 2.5 and 5 times faster.

• 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-24402: Fix input() to prompt to the redirected stdout when sys.stdout.fileno() fails.

• bpo-25349: Optimize bytes % args using the new private _PyBytesWriter API. Formatting is now up to 2 times faster.

• bpo-25227: Optimize ASCII and latin1 encoders with the surrogateescape error handler: the encoders are now up to 3 times as fast. Initial patch written by Serhiy Storchaka.

• bpo-25003: On Solaris 11.3 or newer, os.urandom() now uses the getrandom() function instead of the getentropy() function. The getentropy() function is blocking to generate very good quality entropy, os.urandom() doesn’t need such high-quality entropy.

• bpo-9232: Modify Python’s grammar to allow trailing commas in the argument list of a function declaration. For example, “def f(*, a = 3,): pass” is now legal. Patch from Mark Dickinson.

• bpo-24965: Implement PEP 498 “Literal String Interpolation”. This allows you to embed expressions inside f-strings, which are converted to normal strings at run time. Given x=3, then f’value={x}’ == ‘value=3’. Patch by Eric V. Smith.

• 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.

• Change ‘The program’ to ‘Your program’ in an IDLE ‘kill program?’ message to make it clearer that the program referred to is the currently running user program, not IDLE itself.

• 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-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 Rose 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.

• bpo-21668: Link audioop, _datetime, _ctypes_test modules to libm, except on Mac OS X. Patch written by Chi Hsuan Yen.

• bpo-25702: A –with-lto configure option has been added that will enable link time optimizations at build time during a make profile-opt. Some compilers and toolchains are known to not produce stable code when using LTO, be sure to test things thoroughly before relying on it. It can provide a few % speed up over profile-opt alone.

• bpo-26624: Adds validation of ucrtbase[d].dll version with warning for old versions.

• bpo-26991: Fix possible refleak when creating a function with annotations.

• bpo-27039: Fixed bytearray.remove() for values greater than 127. Patch by Joe Jevnik.

• bpo-23640: int.from_bytes() no longer bypasses constructors for subclasses.

• bpo-26811: gc.get_objects() no longer contains a broken tuple with NULL pointer.

• bpo-20120: Use RawConfigParser for .pypirc parsing, removing support for interpolation unintentionally added with move to Python 3. Behavior no longer does any interpolation in .pypirc files, matching behavior in Python 2.7 and Setuptools 19.0.

• bpo-26659: Make the builtin slice type support cycle collection.

• bpo-26718: super.__init__ no longer leaks memory if called multiple times. NOTE: A direct call of super.__init__ is not endorsed!

• bpo-25339: PYTHONIOENCODING now has priority over locale in setting the error handler for stdin and stdout.

• bpo-26494: Fixed crash on iterating exhausting iterators. Affected classes are generic sequence iterators, iterators of str, bytes, bytearray, list, tuple, set, frozenset, dict, OrderedDict, corresponding views and os.scandir() iterator.

• bpo-26581: If coding cookie is specified multiple times on a line in Python source code file, only the first one is taken to account.

• bpo-26464: Fix str.translate() when string is ASCII and first replacements removes character, but next replacement uses a non-ASCII character or a string longer than 1 character. Regression introduced in Python 3.5.0.

• 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-26194: Deque.insert() gave odd results for bounded deques that had reached their maximum size. Now an IndexError will be raised when attempting to insert into a full deque.

• bpo-25843: When compiling code, don’t merge constants if they are equal but have a different types. For example, f1, f2 = lambda: 1, lambda: 1.0 is now correctly compiled to two different functions: f1() returns 1 (int) and f2() returns 1.0 (int), even if 1 and 1.0 are equal.

• bpo-22995: [UPDATE] Comment out the one of the pickleability tests in _PyObject_GetState() due to regressions observed in Cython-based projects.

• bpo-25961: Disallowed null characters in the type name.

• bpo-20440: Massive replacing unsafe attribute setting code with special macro Py_SETREF.

• bpo-25766: Special method __bytes__() now works in str subclasses.

• bpo-25421: __sizeof__ methods of builtin types now use dynamic basic size. This allows sys.getsize() to work correctly with their subclasses with __slots__ defined.

• bpo-27147: Mention PEP 420 in the importlib docs.

• bpo-24097: Fixed crash in object.__reduce__() if slot name is freed inside __getattr__.

• bpo-24731: Fixed crash on converting objects with special methods __bytes__, __trunc__, and __float__ returning instances of subclasses of bytes, int, and float to subclasses of bytes, int, and float correspondingly.

• bpo-26478: Fix semantic bugs when using binary operators with dictionary views and tuples.

• bpo-26171: Fix possible integer overflow and heap corruption in zipimporter.get_data().

Python 3.5.1 release candidate 1

Release date: 2015-11-22

Núcleo e Builtins

• 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-24402: Fix input() to prompt to the redirected stdout when sys.stdout.fileno() fails.

• bpo-24806: Prevent builtin types that are not allowed to be subclassed from being subclassed through multiple inheritance.

• bpo-25003: On Solaris 11.3 or newer, os.urandom() now uses the getrandom() function instead of the getentropy() function. The getentropy() function is blocking to generate very good quality entropy, os.urandom() doesn’t need such high-quality entropy.

• 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.

• bpo-24657: Prevent CGIRequestHandler from collapsing slashes in the query part of the URL as if it were a path. Patch from Xiang Zhang.

• bpo-19143: platform module now reads Windows version from kernel32.dll to avoid compatibility shims.

• bpo-25092: Fix datetime.strftime() failure when errno was already set to EINVAL.

• bpo-23517: Fix rounding in fromtimestamp() and utcfromtimestamp() methods of datetime.datetime: microseconds are now rounded to nearest with ties going to nearest even integer (ROUND_HALF_EVEN), instead of being rounding towards minus infinity (ROUND_FLOOR). 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.

• bpo-25108: Omitted internal frames in traceback functions print_stack(), format_stack(), and extract_stack() called without arguments.

• bpo-25118: Fix a regression of Python 3.5.0 in os.waitpid() on Windows.

• bpo-24684: socket.socket.getaddrinfo() now calls PyUnicode_AsEncodedString() instead of calling the encode() method of the host, to handle correctly custom string with an encode() method which doesn’t return a byte string. The encoder of the IDNA codec is now called directly instead of calling the encode() method of the string.

• bpo-25060: Correctly compute stack usage of the BUILD_MAP opcode.

• bpo-24857: Comparing call_args to a long sequence now correctly returns a boolean result instead of raising an exception. Patch by A Kaptur.

• bpo-23144: Make sure that HTMLParser.feed() returns all the data, even when convert_charrefs is True.

• bpo-24982: shutil.make_archive() with the “zip” format now adds entries for directories (including empty directories) in ZIP file.

• bpo-25019: Fixed a crash caused by setting non-string key of expat parser. Based on patch by John Leitch.

IDLE

• 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.

• Change ‘The program’ to ‘Your program’ in an IDLE ‘kill program?’ message to make it clearer that the program referred to is the currently running user program, not IDLE itself.

• 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-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.

• bpo-2211: Updated the implementation of the http.cookies.Morsel class. Setting attributes key, value and coded_value directly now is deprecated. update() and setdefault() now transform and check keys. Comparing for equality now takes into account attributes key, value and coded_value. copy() now returns a Morsel, not a dict. repr() now contains all attributes.

• 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.

• bpo-21285: Refactor and fix curses configure check to always search in a ncursesw directory.

• bpo-15234: For BerkelyDB and Sqlite, only add the found library and include directories if they aren’t already being searched. This avoids an explicit runtime library dependency.

• bpo-17861: Tools/scripts/generate_opcode_h.py automatically regenerates Include/opcode.h from Lib/opcode.py if the latter gets any change.

• bpo-20644: OS X installer build support for documentation build changes in 3.4.1: assume externally supplied sphinx-build is available in /usr/bin.

• bpo-20022: Eliminate use of deprecated bundlebuilder in OS X builds.

• bpo-15968: Incorporated Tcl, Tk, and Tix builds into the Windows build solution.

• bpo-17095: Fix Modules/Setup shared support.

• bpo-21811: Anticipated fixes to support OS X versions > 10.9.

• bpo-21166: Prevent possible segfaults and other random failures of python <<<<<<< HEAD --generate-posix-vars in pybuilddir.txt build target. ======= –generate-posix-vars in pybuilddir.txt build target. >>>>>>> 3f819ca138… bpo-35110: Fix unintentional spaces around hyphens and dashes. (GH-10231)

• bpo-18096: Fix library order returned by python-config.

• bpo-17219: Add library build dir for Python extension cross-builds.

• bpo-22919: Windows build updated to support VC 14.0 (Visual Studio 2015), which will be used for the official release.

• bpo-21236: Build _msi.pyd with cabinet.lib instead of fci.lib

• bpo-17128: Use private version of OpenSSL for OS X 10.5+ installer.

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-22079: PyType_Ready() now checks that statically allocated type has no dynamically allocated bases.

• bpo-22453: Removed non-documented macro PyObject_REPR().

• bpo-18395: Rename _Py_char2wchar() to Py_DecodeLocale(), rename _Py_wchar2char() to Py_EncodeLocale(), and document these functions.

• bpo-21233: Add new C functions: PyMem_RawCalloc(), PyMem_Calloc(), PyObject_Calloc(), _PyObject_GC_Calloc(). bytes(int) is now using calloc() instead of malloc() for large objects which is faster and use less memory.

• 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().

Documentação

• 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.

• bpo-22394: Doc/Makefile now supports make venv PYTHON=../python to create a venv for generating the documentation, e.g., make html PYTHON=venv/bin/python3.

• bpo-21514: The documentation of the json module now refers to new JSON RFC 7159 instead of obsoleted RFC 4627.

• bpo-21777: The binary sequence methods on bytes and bytearray are now documented explicitly, rather than assuming users will be able to derive the expected behaviour from the behaviour of the corresponding str methods.

• bpo-6916: undocument deprecated asynchat.fifo class.

• bpo-17386: Expanded functionality of the Doc/make.bat script to make it much more comparable to Doc/Makefile.

• bpo-21312: Update the thread_foobar.h template file to include newer threading APIs. Patch by Jack McCracken.

• bpo-21043: Remove the recommendation for specific CA organizations and to mention the ability to load the OS certificates.

• bpo-20765: Add missing documentation for PurePath.with_name() and PurePath.with_suffix().

• bpo-19407: New package installation and distribution guides based on the Python Packaging Authority tools. Existing guides have been retained as legacy links from the distutils docs, as they still contain some required reference material for tool developers that isn’t recorded anywhere else.

• bpo-19697: Document cases where __main__.__spec__ is None.

Testes

• bpo-18982: Add tests for CLI of the calendar module.

• bpo-19548: Added some additional checks to test_codecs to ensure that statements in the updated documentation remain accurate. Patch by Martin Panter.

• bpo-20746: Fix test_pdb to run in refleak mode (-R). Patch by Xavier de Gaye.

• bpo-22060: test_ctypes has been somewhat cleaned up and simplified; it now uses unittest test discovery to find its tests.

• bpo-22104: regrtest.py no longer holds a reference to the suite of tests loaded from test modules that don’t define test_main().

• bpo-22111: Assorted cleanups in test_imaplib. Patch by Milan Oberkirch.

• bpo-22002: Added load_package_tests function to test.support and used it to implement/augment test discovery in test_asyncio, test_email, test_importlib, test_json, and test_tools.

• bpo-21976: Fix test_ssl to accept LibreSSL version strings. Thanks to William Orr.

• bpo-21918: Converted test_tools from a module to a package containing separate test files for each tested script.

• bpo-9554: Use modern unittest features in test_argparse. Initial patch by Denver Coneybeare and Radu Voicilas.

• bpo-20155: Changed HTTP method names in failing tests in test_httpservers so that packet filtering software (specifically Windows Base Filtering Engine) does not interfere with the transaction semantics expected by the tests.

• bpo-19493: Refactored the ctypes test package to skip tests explicitly rather than silently.

• bpo-18492: All resources are now allowed when tests are not run by regrtest.py.

• bpo-21634: Fix pystone micro-benchmark: use floor division instead of true division to benchmark integers instead of floating point numbers. Set pystone version to 1.2. Patch written by Lennart Regebro.

• bpo-21223: Pass test_site/test_startup_imports when some of the extensions are built as builtins.

• bpo-20635: Added tests for Tk geometry managers.

• Add test case for freeze.

• bpo-20743: Fix a reference leak in test_tcl.
