Description

Issue body actions

The following public C API is new in 3.14 (beta 3, relative to 3.13.0), and as of this writing it looks either:

  • undocumented,
  • documented incorrectly, or
  • public by mistake.

previously: 3.13


"PYOS" (#135928):

  • PYOS_LOG2_STACK_MARGIN: Include/pythonrun.h
  • PYOS_STACK_MARGIN_BYTES: Include/pythonrun.h
  • PYOS_STACK_MARGIN_SHIFT: Include/pythonrun.h

"SPECIAL" (#135922):

  • SPECIAL_MAX: Include/ceval.h
  • SPECIAL___AENTER__: Include/ceval.h
  • SPECIAL___AEXIT__: Include/ceval.h
  • SPECIAL___ENTER__: Include/ceval.h
  • SPECIAL___EXIT__: Include/ceval.h

Header guards (traditionally named Py_*_H, but a leading underscore would be better for new ones) (#135921):

  • Py_AUDIT_H: Include/audit.h
  • Py_CPYTHON_AUDIT_H: Include/audit.h
  • Py_REFCOUNT_H: Include/refcount.h

New configure constants.
(IMO, if we don't want users to touch these, they should use the _Py prefix.
If we do want users to use them, they need docs.)

New HAVE configure constants -- a lost cause:

  • HAVE_BACKTRACE
  • HAVE_DECL_UT_NAMESIZE
  • HAVE_DLADDR
  • HAVE_DLADDR1
  • HAVE_EXECINFO_H
  • HAVE_GETLOGIN_R
  • HAVE_LINK_H
  • HAVE_LINUX_NETFILTER_IPV4_H
  • HAVE_LINUX_SCHED_H
  • HAVE_PTHREAD_GETATTR_NP
  • HAVE_PTHREAD_GETNAME_NP
  • HAVE_PTHREAD_SETNAME_NP
  • HAVE_SYS_PIDFD_H3
  • HAVE_TTYNAME_R
  • HAVE_USABLE_WCHAR_T
  • HAVE_UT_NAMESIZE

New CO_ flags (documented in inspect; Sphinx sees none of these as C macros): (#135980)

  • CO_HAS_DOCSTRING: Include/cpython/code.h:115
  • CO_METHOD: Include/cpython/code.h:115

  • Check links above! I prefer attaching doc fixes & renames to issues that added the API.
