Calling Ctypes functions is deprecated in 3.6.2 and will be removed in 3.7

Also document that some attributes may be None.

Unlikely to the simplejson module, json.JSONDecodeError doesn't accept the end argument.

The "iterable iterable" phrasing created confusion between the term
reference and the parameter name.

This simplifies the phrasing to just use the parameter name
without linking directly to the term definition.

* correct __slots__ documentation with minimal changes

* add multiple inheritance info

* remove mapping from description

Partially clarify the subprocess convenience API documentation by
explicitly listing the `cwd` parameter in their abbreviated signatures.

While this has been merged as an improvement, it doesn't fully
resolve the issue, as the `cwd` should also be covered in the
"Frequently Used Arguments" section, and the fact these APIs
pass unlisted keyword arguments down to the lower level APIs
is currently still unclear.

* bpo-30414: multiprocesing.Queue._feed do not break from main loop on exc

Queue background running thread was not handling exceptions correctly.
Any exception occurred inside thread (putting unpickable object) cause
feeder to finish running. After that every message put into queue is
silently ignored.

Running under coverage sometimes causes 'in comparison' to be added to the end of the RecursionError message, which is acceptable.

The library does not enforce compliance with the HTTP protocol,
so violations are not technically disallowed. Extend the stream's
description to avoid suggesting that intentional protocol violations are
not supported.

bpo-28707: Add the directory parameter to http.server.SimpleHTTPRequestHandler and http.server module (#1776)

* bpo-28707: call the constructor of SimpleHTTPRequestHandler in the test with a mock object

This helps people in weird FIPS mode environments where common things
like MD5 are not available in the binary as a matter of policy.

This reverts commit 5ba18503.

* Improves test_underpth_nosite_file to reveal why it fails.

* Enable building with Windows 10 SDK.

* Fix WinSDK detection

* Fix initialization on Windows when a ._pth file exists.

* Fix tabs

* Adds comment about Py_GetPath call.

Drop handshake_done and peer_cert members from PySSLSocket struct. The
peer certificate can be acquired from *SSL directly.
SSL_get_peer_certificate() does not trigger any network activity.
Instead of manually tracking the handshake state, simply use
SSL_is_init_finished().

In combination these changes fix auto-handshake for non-blocking
MemoryBIO connections.

* Allow FileInput to accept a single PathLike object as a parameter for `files`

Fixes

bpo-30432: FileInput doesn't accept PathLike objects for file names

* Address comments from @ambv

PEP 432 specifies a number of large changes to interpreter startup code, including exposing a cleaner C-API. The major changes depend on a number of smaller changes. This patch includes all those smaller changes.

Some objects (like test mocks) auto-generate new objects on
attribute access, which can lead to an infinite loop in
inspect.unwrap().

Ensuring references are retained to otherwise temporary objects
and capping the size of the memo dict turns this case into a
conventional exception instead.
