Summary: This mostly migrates Python-ast.c to PEP384 and removes all statics from the whole file. This modifies the generator itself that generates the Python-ast.c. It leaves in the usage of _PyObject_LookupAttr even though it's not fully PEP384 compatible (this could always be shimmed in by anyone who needs it).
This is the converse of GH-15353 -- in addition to plenty of
scripts in the tree that are marked with the executable bit
(and so can be directly executed), there are a few that have
a leading `#!` which could let them be executed, but it doesn't
do anything because they don't have the executable bit set.
Here's a command which finds such files and marks them. The
first line finds files in the tree with a `#!` line *anywhere*;
the next-to-last step checks that the *first* line is actually of
that form. In between we filter out files that already have the
bit set, and some files that are meant as fragments to be
consumed by one or another kind of preprocessor.
$ git grep -l '^#!' \
| grep -vxFf <( \
git ls-files --stage \
| perl -lane 'print $F[3] if (!/^100644/)' \
) \
| grep -ve '\.in$' -e '^Doc/includes/' \
| while read f; do
head -c2 "$f" | grep -qxF '#!' \
&& chmod a+x "$f"; \
done
* Refactor Parser/pgen and add documentation and explanations
To improve the readability and maintainability of the parser
generator perform the following transformations:
* Separate the metagrammar parser in its own class to simplify
the parser generator logic.
* Create separate classes for DFAs and NFAs and move methods that
act exclusively on them from the parser generator to these
classes.
* Add docstrings and comment documenting the process to go from
the grammar file into NFAs and then DFAs. Detail some of the
algorithms and give some background explanations of some concepts
that will helps readers not familiar with the parser generation
process.
* Select more descriptive names for some variables and variables.
* PEP8 formatting and quote-style homogenization.
The output of the parser generator remains the same (Include/graminit.h
and Python/graminit.c remain untouched by running the new parser generator).
