bpo-36443, bpo-36202: Since Python 3.7.0, calling Py_DecodeLocale()
before Py_Initialize() produces mojibake if the LC_CTYPE locale is
coerced and/or if the UTF-8 Mode is enabled by the user
configuration. This change fix the issue by disabling LC_CTYPE
coercion and UTF-8 Mode by default. They must now be enabled
explicitly (opt-in) using the new _Py_PreInitialize() API with
_PyPreConfig.
When embedding Python, set coerce_c_locale and utf8_mode attributes
of _PyPreConfig to -1 to enable automatically these parameters
depending on the LC_CTYPE locale, environment variables and command
line arguments
Alternative: Setting Py_UTF8Mode to 1 always explicitly enables the
UTF-8 Mode.
Changes:
* _PyPreConfig_INIT now sets coerce_c_locale and utf8_mode to 0 by
default.
* _Py_InitializeFromArgs() and _Py_InitializeFromWideArgs() can now
be called with config=NULL.
* _PyCoreConfig_Write() now updates _PyRuntime.preconfig
* Remove _PyPreCmdline_Copy()
* _PyPreCmdline_Read() now accepts _PyPreConfig and _PyCoreConfig
optional configurations.
* Rename _PyPreConfig_ReadFromArgv() to _PyPreConfig_Read(). Simplify
the code.
* Calling _PyCoreConfig_Read() no longer adds the warning options
twice: don't add a warning option if it's already in the list.
* Rename _PyCoreConfig_ReadFromArgv() to _PyCoreConfig_Read().
* Rename config_from_cmdline() to _PyCoreConfig_ReadFromArgv().
* Add more assertions on _PyCoreConfig in _PyCoreConfig_Read().
* Move some functions.
* Make some config functions private.
* Make _PyPreConfig_GetEnv(), _PyCoreConfig_GetEnv() and
_PyCoreConfig_GetEnvDup() private
* _Py_get_env_flag() first parameter becomes "int use_environment"
* Add _Py_GetConfigsAsDict() function to get all configurations as a
dict.
* dump_config() of _testembed.c now dumps preconfig as a separated
key: call _Py_GetConfigsAsDict().
* Make _PyMainInterpreterConfig_AsDict() private.
* Initialize _PyPreConfig.dev_mode to -1.
* _PyPreConfig_Read(): coreconfig has the priority over preconfig.
* _PyCoreConfig_Read() now calls _PyPreCmdline_Read() internally.
* config_from_cmdline() now pass _PyPreCmdline to config_read().
* Add _PyPreCmdline_Copy().
Prepare code to move some _PyPreConfig parameters into _PyPreCmdline.
Changes:
* _PyCoreConfig_ReadFromArgv(): remove preconfig parameter,
use _PyRuntime.preconfig.
* Add _PyPreCmdline_GetPreConfig() (called by _PyPreConfig_Read()).
* Rename _PyPreCmdline_Init() to _PyPreCmdline_SetArgv()
* Factorize _Py_PreInitializeFromPreConfig() code: add
pyinit_preinit().
* _PyPreConfig_Read() now sets coerce_c_locale to 2 if it must be
coerced.
* Remove _PyCoreConfig_ReadPreConfig().
* _PyCoreConfig_Write() now copies updated preconfig into _PyRuntime.
* Add _PyRuntime.pre_initialized: set to 1 when Python
is pre-initialized
* Add _Py_PreInitialize() and _Py_PreInitializeFromPreConfig().
* _PyCoreConfig_Read() now calls _Py_PreInitialize().
* Move _PyPreConfig_GetGlobalConfig() and
_PyCoreConfig_GetGlobalConfig() calls from main.c to preconfig.c
and coreconfig.c.
Replace messy _Py_wstrlist_xxx() functions with a new clean
_PyWstrList structure and new _PyWstrList_xxx() functions.
Changes:
* Add _PyCoreConfig.use_module_search_paths to decide if
_PyCoreConfig.module_search_paths should be computed or not, to
support empty search path list.
* _PyWstrList_Clear() sets length to 0 and items to NULL, whereas
_Py_wstrlist_clear() only freed memory.
* _PyWstrList_Append() returns an int, whereas _Py_wstrlist_append()
returned _PyInitError.
* _PyWstrList uses Py_ssize_t for the length, instead of int.
* Replace (int, wchar_t**) with _PyWstrList in:
* _PyPreConfig
* _PyCoreConfig
* _PyPreCmdline
* _PyCmdline
* Replace "int orig_argv; wchar_t **orig_argv;"
with "_PyWstrList orig_argv".
* _PyCmdline and _PyPreCmdline now also copy wchar_argv.
* Rename _PyArgv_Decode() to _PyArgv_AsWstrList().
* PySys_SetArgvEx() now pass the fixed (argc, argv) to
_PyPathConfig_ComputeArgv0() (don't pass negative argc or NULL
argv).
* _PyOS_GetOpt() uses Py_ssize_t
bpo-34247, bpo-36142: The PYTHONMALLOC environment variable has the
priority over PYTHONDEV env var and "-X dev" command line option.
For example, PYTHONMALLOC=malloc PYTHONDEVMODE=1 sets the memory
allocators to "malloc" (and not to "debug").
Add an unit test.
* _PyPreConfig_Read() now sets temporarily LC_CTYPE to the user
preferred locale, as _PyPreConfig_Write() will do permanentely.
* Fix _PyCoreConfig_Clear(): clear run_xxx attributes
* _Py_SetArgcArgv() doesn't have to be exported
* _PyCoreConfig_SetGlobalConfig() no longer applies preconfig
* _PyPreConfig_Write() now reallocates the pre-configuration with the
new memory allocator.
* It is no longer needed to force the "default raw memory allocator"
to clear pre-configuration and core configuration. Simplify the
code.
* _PyPreConfig_Write() now does nothing if called after
Py_Initialize(): no longer check if the allocator is the same.
* Remove _PyMem_GetDebugAllocatorsName(): dev mode sets again
allocator to "debug".
* _PyPreConfig_Write() now sets the memory allocator.
* _PyPreConfig_Write() gets a return type: _PyInitError.
* _Py_InitializeCore() now reads and writes the pre-configuration
(set the memory allocator, configure the locale) before reading and
writing the core configuration.
The development mode now uses the effective name of the debug memory
allocator ("pymalloc_debug" or "malloc_debug"). So the name doesn't
change after setting the memory allocator.
* Move 'allocator' and 'dev_mode' fields from _PyCoreConfig
to _PyPreConfig.
* Fix InitConfigTests of test_embed: dev_mode sets allocator to
"debug", add a new tests for env vars with dev mode enabled.
* Move following fields from _PyCoreConfig to _PyPreConfig:
* coerce_c_locale
* coerce_c_locale_warn
* legacy_windows_stdio
* utf8_mode
* _PyPreConfig_ReadFromArgv() is now responsible to choose the
filesystem encoding
* _PyPreConfig_Write() now sets the LC_CTYPE locale
* Add _PyPreConfig structure
* Move 'ignored' and 'use_environment' fields from _PyCoreConfig
to _PyPreConfig
* Add a new "_PyPreConfig preconfig;" field to _PyCoreConfig
