Core and Builtins ----------------- - 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-31418: Fix an assertion failure in `PyErr_WriteUnraisable()` in case of an exception with a bad ``__module__`` attribute. Patch by Oren Milman. - bpo-31416: Fix assertion failures in case of a bad warnings.filters or warnings.defaultaction. Patch by Oren Milman. - bpo-31411: Raise a TypeError instead of SystemError in case warnings.onceregistry is not a dictionary. Patch by Oren Milman. - 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-31343: Include sys/sysmacros.h for major(), minor(), and makedev(). GNU C libray plans to remove the functions from sys/types.h. - bpo-31291: Fix an assertion failure in `zipimport.zipimporter.get_data` on Windows, when the return value of ``pathname.replace('/','\\')`` isn't a string.

Relative import from non-package now fails with ImportError rather than SystemError. - 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-30814: Fixed a race condition when import a submodule from a package. - bpo-30597: ``print`` now shows expected input in custom error message when used as a Python 2 statement.

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 :func:`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-10746: Fix ctypes producing wrong PEP 3118 type codes for integer types. - 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. The LabeledScale.destroy() method now also explicitly clears label and scale attributes to help the garbage collector to destroy all widgets. - bpo-31107: Fix `copyreg._slotnames()` mangled attribute calculation for classes whose name begins with an underscore. Patch by Shane Harvey. - bpo-31061: Fixed a crash when using asyncio and threads. - bpo-30502: Fix handling of long oids in ssl.

Patch by Aaron Gallagher. - bpo-30961: Fix decrementing a borrowed reference in tracemalloc. - bpo-25684: Change ``ttk.OptionMenu`` radiobuttons to be unique across instances of ``OptionMenu``. - bpo-30886: Fix multiprocessing.Queue.join_thread(): it now waits until the thread completes, even if the thread was started by the same process which created the queue. - bpo-29854: Fix segfault in readline when using readline's history-size option. Patch by Nir Soffer. - 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-30746: Prohibited the '=' character in environment variable names in ``os.putenv()`` and ``os.spawn*()``. - bpo-29755: Fixed the lgettext() family of functions in the gettext module.

Original patch by Peter Thomassen. Tests ----- - bpo-31320: Silence traceback in test_ssl - bpo-25674: Remove sha256.tbs-internet.com ssl test - 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. Build ----- - 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-30581: os.cpu_count() now returns the correct number of processors on Windows when the number of logical processors is greater than 64. - 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 experimentatin 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 condigdialog 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. Inital 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.

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.

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. Tools/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. What's New in Python 3.6.2 final? ================================= *Release date: 2017-07-17* No changes since release candidate 2 What's New in Python 3.6.2 release candidate 2? =============================================== *Release date: 2017-07-07* Security -------- - 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 authentification (``login@host``).

Based on patch by Ma Lin. - bpo-30301: Fix AttributeError when using SimpleQueue.empty() under *spawn* and *forkserver* start methods. - bpo-30329: imaplib and poplib now catch the Windows socket WSAEINVAL error (code 10022) on shutdown(SHUT_RDWR): An invalid operation was attempted. This error occurs sometimes on SSL connections. - bpo-30375: Warnings emitted when compile a regular expression now always point to the line in the user code. Previously they could point into inners of the re module if emitted from inside of groups or conditionals. - bpo-30048: Fixed ``Task.cancel()`` can be ignored when the task is running coroutine and the coroutine returned without any more ``await``. - bpo-30266: contextlib.AbstractContextManager now supports anti- registration by setting __enter__ = None or __exit__ = None, following the pattern introduced in bpo-25958. Patch by Jelle Zijlstra. - bpo-30298: Weaken the condition of deprecation warnings for inline modifiers.

What's New in Python 3.6.0 alpha 1? =================================== *Release date: 2016-05-16* Core and Builtins ----------------- - bpo-20041: Fixed TypeError when frame.f_trace is set to None. Patch by Xavier de Gaye. - bpo-26168: Fixed possible refleaks in failing Py_BuildValue() with the "N" format unit. - bpo-26991: Fix possible refleak when creating a function with annotations. - bpo-27039: Fixed bytearray.remove() for values greater than 127. Based on patch by Joe Jevnik. - bpo-23640: int.from_bytes() no longer bypasses constructors for subclasses. - bpo-27005: Optimized the float.fromhex() class method for exact float. It is now 2 times faster. - bpo-18531: Single var-keyword argument of dict subtype was passed unscathed to the C-defined function. Now it is converted to exact dict. - 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-26249: Memory functions of the :c:func:`PyMem_Malloc` domain (:c:data:`PYMEM_DOMAIN_MEM`) now use the :ref:`pymalloc allocator <pymalloc>` rather than system :c:func:`malloc`. Applications calling :c:func:`PyMem_Malloc` without holding the GIL can now crash: use ``PYTHONMALLOC=debug`` environment variable to validate the usage of memory allocators in your application. - bpo-26802: Optimize function calls only using unpacking like ``func(*tuple)`` (no other positional argument, no keyword): avoid copying the tuple. Patch written by Joe Jevnik. - 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-27138: Fix the doc comment for FileFinder.find_spec(). - bpo-27147: Mention PEP 420 in the importlib docs. - 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-26574: Optimize ``bytes.replace(b'', b'.')`` and ``bytearray.replace(b'', b'.')``. Patch written by Josh Snider. - 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-19711: Add tests for reloading namespace packages. - bpo-21099: Switch applicable importlib tests to use PEP 451 API. - bpo-26563: Debug hooks on Python memory allocators now raise a fatal error if functions of the :c:func:`PyMem_Malloc` family are called without holding the GIL. - bpo-26564: On error, the debug hooks on Python memory allocators now use the :mod:`tracemalloc` module to get the traceback where a memory block was allocated. - bpo-26558: The debug hooks on Python memory allocator :c:func:`PyObject_Malloc` now detect when functions are called without holding the GIL. - bpo-26516: Add :envvar:`PYTHONMALLOC` environment variable to set the Python memory allocators and/or install debug hooks. - bpo-26516: The :c:func:`PyMem_SetupDebugHooks` function can now also be used on Python compiled in release mode. - bpo-26516: The :envvar:`PYTHONMALLOCSTATS` environment variable can now also be used on Python compiled in release mode. It now has no effect if set to an empty string. - bpo-26516: In debug mode, debug hooks are now also installed on Python memory allocators when Python is configured without pymalloc. - 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-22836: Ensure exception reports from PyErr_Display() and PyErr_WriteUnraisable() are sensible even when formatting them produces secondary errors. This affects the reports produced by sys.__excepthook__() and when __del__() raises an exception. - bpo-26302: Correct behavior to reject comma as a legal character for cookie names. - bpo-26136: Upgrade the warning when a generator raises StopIteration from PendingDeprecationWarning to DeprecationWarning. Patch by Anish Shah. - bpo-26204: The compiler now ignores all constant statements: bytes, str, int, float, complex, name constants (None, False, True), Ellipsis and ast.Constant; not only str and int. For example, ``1.0`` is now ignored in ``def f(): 1.0``. - 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-25961: Disallowed null characters in the type name. - bpo-25973: Fix segfault when an invalid nonlocal statement binds a name starting with two underscores. - bpo-22995: Instances of extension types with a state that aren't subclasses of list or dict and haven't implemented any pickle-related methods (__reduce__, __reduce_ex__, __getnewargs__, __getnewargs_ex__, or __getstate__), can no longer be pickled. Including memoryview. - 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.

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-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-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-25401: Optimize bytes.fromhex() and bytearray.fromhex(): they are now between 2x and 3.5x faster. - 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-24806: Prevent builtin types that are not allowed to be subclassed from being subclassed through multiple inheritance. - bpo-25301: The UTF-8 decoder is now up to 15 times as fast for error handlers: ``ignore``, ``replace`` and ``surrogateescape``. - bpo-24848: Fixed a number of bugs in UTF-7 decoding of misformed data. - bpo-25267: The UTF-8 encoder is now up to 75 times as fast for error handlers: ``ignore``, ``replace``, ``surrogateescape``, ``surrogatepass``. Patch co- written with Serhiy Storchaka. - bpo-25280: Import trace messages emitted in verbose (-v) mode are no longer formatted twice. - 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-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(). - bpo-25660: Fix TAB key behaviour in REPL with readline. - bpo-26288: Optimize PyLong_AsDouble. - bpo-26289: Optimize floor and modulo division for single-digit longs.

Thanks to Kalle Tuure! - bpo-27031: Removed dummy methods in Tkinter widget classes: tk_menuBar() and tk_bindForTraversal(). - bpo-14132: Fix urllib.request redirect handling when the target only has a query string. Original fix by Ján Janech. - bpo-17214: The "urllib.request" module now percent-encodes non-ASCII bytes found in redirect target URLs. Some servers send Location header fields with non- ASCII bytes, but "http.client" requires the request target to be ASCII- encodable, otherwise a UnicodeEncodeError is raised. Based on patch by Christian Heimes. - bpo-27033: The default value of the decode_data parameter for smtpd.SMTPChannel and smtpd.SMTPServer constructors is changed to False. - bpo-27034: Removed deprecated class asynchat.fifo. - bpo-26870: Added readline.set_auto_history(), which can stop entries being automatically added to the history list.

This was a regression in 3.5a1, and stopped anonymous temporary files from working in special cases. - bpo-24903: Fix regression in number of arguments compileall accepts when '-d' is specified. The check on the number of arguments has been dropped completely as it never worked correctly anyway. - bpo-25764: In the subprocess module, preserve any exception caused by fork() failure when preexec_fn is used. - bpo-25771: Tweak the exception message for importlib.util.resolve_name() when 'package' isn't specified but necessary. - bpo-6478: _strptime's regexp cache now is reset after changing timezone with time.tzset(). - bpo-14285: When executing a package with the "python -m package" option, and package initialization fails, a proper traceback is now reported. The "runpy" module now lets exceptions from package initialization pass back to the caller, rather than raising ImportError. - bpo-19771: Also in runpy and the "-m" option, omit the irrelevant message ". . . is a package and cannot be directly executed" if the package could not even be initialized (e.g. due to a bad ``*.pyc`` file). - bpo-25177: Fixed problem with the mean of very small and very large numbers.

Patch by Dingyuan Wang. - 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-25583: Avoid incorrect errors raised by os.makedirs(exist_ok=True) when the OS gives priority to errors such as EACCES over EEXIST. - bpo-25593: Change semantics of EventLoop.stop() in asyncio. - bpo-6973: When we know a subprocess.Popen process has died, do not allow the send_signal(), terminate(), or kill() methods to do anything as they could potentially signal a different process. - bpo-23883: Added missing APIs to __all__ to match the documented APIs for the following modules: calendar, csv, enum, fileinput, ftplib, logging, optparse, tarfile, threading and wave. Also added a test.support.check__all__() helper. Patches by Jacek Kołodziej, Mauro S. M. Rodrigues and Joel Taddei. - bpo-25590: In the Readline completer, only call getattr() once per attribute. Also complete names of attributes such as properties and slots which are listed by dir() but not yet created on an instance. - bpo-25498: Fix a crash when garbage-collecting ctypes objects created by wrapping a memoryview.

Augment IOBinding htest to include all major IOBinding functions. - bpo-25905: Revert unwanted conversion of ' to ’ RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK in README.txt and open this and NEWS.txt with 'ascii'. Re-encode CREDITS.txt to utf-8 and open it with 'utf-8'. - 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.

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-17603: Avoid error about nonexistant fileblocks.o file by using a lower-level check for st_blocks in struct stat. - bpo-26079: Fixing the build output folder for tix-8.4.3.6.

Also classes for PEP 492 (Awaitable, AsyncIterable, AsyncIterator) have been added (in fact they made it into 3.5.1 but were never mentioned). - bpo-25738: Stop http.server.BaseHTTPRequestHandler.send_error() from sending a message body for 205 Reset Content. Also, don't send Content header fields in responses that don't have a body. Patch by Susumu Koshiba. - bpo-21313: Fix the "platform" module to tolerate when sys.version contains truncated build information. Security -------- - bpo-26839: On Linux, :func:`os.urandom` now calls ``getrandom()`` with ``GRND_NONBLOCK`` to fall back on reading ``/dev/urandom`` if the urandom entropy pool is not initialized yet.

Windows ------- - bpo-25715: Python 3.5.1 installer shows wrong upgrade path and incorrect logic for launcher detection. What's New in Python 3.5.1 release candidate 1? =============================================== *Release date: 2015-11-22* Core and 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.

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.

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.

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-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.

See idlelib.__init__.__doc__. - 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-24790: Remove extraneous code (which also create 2 & 3 conflicts).

Patch by Roger Serwy. - bpo-21695: Closing a Find-in-files output window while the search is still in progress no longer closes Idle. - bpo-18910: Add unittest for textView. Patch by Phil Webster. - bpo-18292: Add unittest for AutoExpand. Patch by Saihadhav Heblikar. - bpo-18409: Add unittest for AutoComplete. Patch by Phil Webster. - bpo-21477: htest.py - Improve framework, complete set of tests. Patches by Saimadhav Heblikar - bpo-18104: Add idlelib/idle_test/htest.py with a few sample tests to begin consolidating and improving human-validated tests of Idle. Change other files as needed to work with htest. Running the module as __main__ runs all tests. - bpo-21139: Change default paragraph width to 72, the PEP 8 recommendation. - bpo-21284: Paragraph reformat test passes after user changes reformat width. - bpo-17654: Ensure IDLE menus are customized properly on OS X for non- framework builds and for all variants of Tk. - bpo-23180: Rename IDLE "Windows" menu item to "Window". Patch by Al Sweigart. Build ----- - bpo-15506: Use standard PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG autoconf macro in the configure script. - bpo-22935: Allow the ssl module to be compiled if openssl doesn't support SSL 3. - bpo-22592: Drop support of the Borland C compiler to build Python. The distutils module still supports it to build extensions. - bpo-22591: Drop support of MS-DOS, especially of the DJGPP compiler (MS- DOS port of GCC). - bpo-16537: Check whether self.extensions is empty in setup.py. Patch by Jonathan Hosmer. - bpo-22359: Remove incorrect uses of recursive make. Patch by Jonas Wagner. - 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. - 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 --generate- posix-vars in pybuilddir.txt build target. - 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. C API ----- - 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 :c:func:`Py_DecodeLocale`, rename ``_Py_wchar2char()`` to :c:func:`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(). Documentation ------------- - 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. Tests ----- - 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-22838: All test_re tests now work with unittest test discovery. - bpo-22173: Update lib2to3 tests to use unittest test discovery. - bpo-16000: Convert test_curses to use unittest. - bpo-21456: Skip two tests in test_urllib2net.py if _ssl module not present. Patch by Remi Pointel. - 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-21605: Added tests for Tkinter images. - bpo-21493: Added test for ntpath.expanduser(). Original patch by Claudiu Popa. - bpo-19925: Added tests for the spwd module. Original patch by Vajrasky Kok. - bpo-21522: Added Tkinter tests for Listbox.itemconfigure(), PanedWindow.paneconfigure(), and Menu.entryconfigure(). - bpo-17756: Fix test_code test when run from the installed location. - bpo-17752: Fix distutils tests when run from the installed location. - bpo-18604: Consolidated checks for GUI availability. All platforms now at least check whether Tk can be instantiated when the GUI resource is requested. - bpo-21275: Fix a socket test on KFreeBSD. - 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. - bpo-21097: Move test_namespace_pkgs into test_importlib. - bpo-21503: Use test_both() consistently in test_importlib. - bpo-20939: Avoid various network test failures due to new redirect of http://www.python.org/ to https://www.python.org: use http://www.example.com instead. - bpo-20668: asyncio tests no longer rely on tests.txt file. (Patch by Vajrasky Kok) - bpo-21093: Prevent failures of ctypes test_macholib on OS X if a copy of libz exists in $HOME/lib or /usr/local/lib. - bpo-22770: Prevent some Tk segfaults on OS X when running gui tests. - bpo-23211: Workaround test_logging failure on some OS X 10.6 systems. - bpo-23345: Prevent test_ssl failures with large OpenSSL patch level values (like 0.9.8zc). Tools/Demos ----------- - bpo-22314: pydoc now works when the LINES environment variable is set. - bpo-22615: Argument Clinic now supports the "type" argument for the int converter. This permits using the int converter with enums and typedefs. - bpo-20076: The makelocalealias.py script no longer ignores UTF-8 mapping. - bpo-20079: The makelocalealias.py script now can parse the SUPPORTED file from glibc sources and supports command line options for source paths. - bpo-22201: Command-line interface of the zipfile module now correctly extracts ZIP files with directory entries. Patch by Ryan Wilson. - bpo-22120: For functions using an unsigned integer return converter, Argument Clinic now generates a cast to that type for the comparison to -1 in the generated code. (This suppresses a compilation warning.) - bpo-18974: Tools/scripts/diff.py now uses argparse instead of optparse. - bpo-21906: Make Tools/scripts/md5sum.py work in Python 3. Patch by Zachary Ware. - bpo-21629: Fix Argument Clinic's "--converters" feature. - Add support for ``yield from`` to 2to3. - Add support for the PEP 465 matrix multiplication operator to 2to3. - bpo-16047: Fix module exception list and __file__ handling in freeze. Patch by Meador Inge. - bpo-11824: Consider ABI tags in freeze. Patch by Meador Inge. - bpo-20535: PYTHONWARNING no longer affects the run_tests.py script. Patch by Arfrever Frehtes Taifersar Arahesis. Windows ------- - bpo-23260: Update Windows installer - The bundled version of Tcl/Tk has been updated to 8.6.3. The most visible result of this change is the addition of new native file dialogs when running on Windows Vista or newer. See Tcl/Tk's TIP 432 for more information. Also, this version of Tcl/Tk includes support for Windows 10. - bpo-17896: The Windows build scripts now expect external library sources to be in ``PCbuild\..\externals`` rather than ``PCbuild\..\..``. - bpo-17717: The Windows build scripts now use a copy of NASM pulled from svn.python.org to build OpenSSL. - bpo-21907: Improved the batch scripts provided for building Python. - bpo-22644: The bundled version of OpenSSL has been updated to 1.0.1j. - bpo-10747: Use versioned labels in the Windows start menu.
