PyType_HasFeature() now always calls PyType_GetFlags() to hide
implementation details. Previously, it accessed directly the
PyTypeObject.tp_flags member when the limited C API was not used.
Add fast inlined version _PyType_HasFeature() and _PyType_IS_GC()
for object.c and typeobject.c.
* Add backcompat defines and move non-limited API declaration to cpython/
This partially reverts commit 2ff58a24e8
which added PyObject_CallNoArgs to the 3.9+ stable ABI. This should not
be done; there are enough other call APIs in the stable ABI to choose from.
* Adjust documentation
Mark all newly public functions as added in 3.9.
Add a note about the 3.8 provisional names.
Add notes on public API.
* Put PyObject_CallNoArgs back in the limited API
* Rename PyObject_FastCallDict to PyObject_VectorcallDict
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, move them
from object.h to cpython/object.h:
* _Py_NewReference()
* _Py_ForgetReference()
* _PyTraceMalloc_NewReference()
* _Py_GetRefTotal()
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.
The trashcan mechanism never worked with the limited C API. Move it
from object.h to cpython/object.h.
_Py_NewReference() becomes a regular opaque function, rather than a
static inline function in the C API (object.h), to better hide
implementation details.
Move _Py_tracemalloc_config from public pymem.h to internal
pycore_pymem.h header.
Make _Py_AddToAllObjects() private.
* Remove _Py_INC_REFTOTAL and _Py_DEC_REFTOTAL macros: modify
directly _Py_RefTotal.
* _Py_ForgetReference() is no longer defined if the Py_TRACE_REFS
macro is not defined.
* Remove _Py_NewReference() implementation from object.c:
unify the two implementations in object.h inline function.
* Fix Py_TRACE_REFS build: _Py_INC_TPALLOCS() macro has been removed.
Move the following functions from the public C API to the internal C
API:
* _PyDebug_PrintTotalRefs(),
* _Py_PrintReferenceAddresses()
* _Py_PrintReferences()
Filename and line numbers are not needed when Py_REF_DEBUG are not
defined.
The static inline _Py_DECREF() function was introduced by
commit 2aaf0c1204.
It is now allowed to add new fields at the end of the PyTypeObject struct without having to allocate a dedicated compatibility flag in tp_flags.
This will reduce the risk of running out of bits in the 32-bit tp_flags value.
Add 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.
