Remote headers

Implement remote refcounts, storing a pointer to a refcount, which are allocated in blocks. The blocks aren't freed and there is no detection of refcount-value-leaks (different from refleaks) just yet....

Assertion errors/stale cache in typeobject.c when tp_version_tag is not cleared.

5

The simple method cache in typeobject.c uses the `tp_version_tag` field and the `Py_TPFLAGS_VALID_VERSION_TAG` bit in the `tp_flags` field to track changes on the type that might invalidate the cache. Unfortunately...

GH-99293: Fix stale method caches and assertion errors in SWIG-generated modules

1

Extension modules generated by SWIG up to version 4.1.0 clear the Py_TPFLAGS_VALID_VERSION_TAG bit from tp_flags when modifying the type, as they should, but do not update tp_version_tag as typeobject.c expects....

github.com/python/planet should move to a different GH org/account.

I understand that the github.com/python GH org has historically been a bit of a catch-all for anything Python-related, but the SC has [posted a GH org policy](https://discuss.python.org/t/new-python-organization-repository-policy) to try and...

The post-release-branch update of main, where it bumps the Python version number, failed to update a few things, which broke CI (https://github.com/python/cpython/actions/runs/5049581081). At the very least: - configure wasn't regenerated...

This issue was found by running [UndefinedBehaviourSanitizer](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer.html) in our internal builds at Google: coverage/ctracer/tracer.c's `CTracer_handle_return()` is sometimes called in situations where `self->pdata_stack->stack` is NULL after the call to `CTracer_set_pdata_stack()`, but...

CDN purges don't purge all files.

1

Currently, we purge the CDN cache for a couple of files, but not all the files (notably missing are new files added relatively recently: sboms and sigstore signatures). https://github.com/python/release-tools/blob/master/run_release.py#L931 We...
