This was added for bpo-40514 (gh-84694) to test out a per-interpreter GIL. However, it has since proven unnecessary to keep the experiment in the repo. (It can be done as a branch in a fork like normal.) So here we are removing:
* the configure option
* the macro
* the code enabled by the macro
Added a new stable API function ``PyType_FromMetaclass``, which mirrors
the behavior of ``PyType_FromModuleAndSpec`` except that it takes an
additional metaclass argument. This is, e.g., useful for language
binding tools that need to store additional information in the type
object.
Python now always use the ``%zu`` and ``%zd`` printf formats to
format a size_t or Py_ssize_t number. Building Python 3.12 requires a
C11 compiler, so these printf formats are now always supported.
* PyObject_Print() and _PyObject_Dump() now use the printf %zd format
to display an object reference count.
* Update PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T comment.
* Remove outdated notes about the %zd format in PyBytes_FromFormat()
and PyUnicode_FromFormat() documentations.
* configure no longer checks for the %zd format and no longer defines
PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T macro in pyconfig.h.
* pymacconfig.h no longer undefines PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T: macOS 10.4 is
no longer supported. Python 3.12 now requires macOS 10.6 (Snow
Leopard) or newer.
Also while there, clarify a few things about why we reduce the hash to 32 bits.

Update documentation of PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefault(),
PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefaultAndSize() and PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault():
they now use the filesystem encoding and error handler of PyConfig,
Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding and Py_FileSystemDefaultEncodeErrors
variables are no longer used.
Avoid mixing declarations and code in the C API to fix the compiler
warning: "ISO C90 forbids mixed declarations and code"
[-Werror=declaration-after-statement].
Remove the PyUnicode_InternImmortal() function and the
SSTATE_INTERNED_IMMORTAL macro.
The PyUnicode_InternImmortal() function is still exported in the
stable ABI. The function is removed from the API.
PyASCIIObject.state.interned size is now a single bit, rather than 2
bits.
Keep SSTATE_NOT_INTERNED and SSTATE_INTERNED_MORTAL macros for
backward compatibility, but no longer use them internally since the
interned member is now a single bit and so can only have two values
(interned or not interned).
Update stats of _PyUnicode_ClearInterned().
In the limited C API version 3.12, PyUnicode_KIND() is now
implemented as a static inline function. Keep the macro for the
regular C API and for the limited C API version 3.11 and older to
prevent introducing new compiler warnings.
Update _decimal.c and stringlib/eq.h for PyUnicode_KIND().
Use _Py_CAST() and _Py_STATIC_CAST() in macros wrapping static inline
functions of unicodeobject.h.
Change also the kind type from unsigned int to int: same parameter
type than PyUnicode_FromKindAndData().
The limited API version 3.11 no longer casts arguments to expected
types.
Use the PyObject* type for parameters of static inline functions:
* Py_SIZE(): same parameter type than PyObject_Size()
* PyList_GET_SIZE(), PyList_SET_ITEM(): same parameter type than
PyList_Size() and PyList_SetItem()
* PyTuple_GET_SIZE(), PyTuple_SET_ITEM(): same parameter type than
PyTuple_Size() and PyTuple_SetItem().
The limited API version 3.11 no longer casts arguments to expected
types of functions of functions:
* PyList_GET_SIZE(), PyList_SET_ITEM()
* PyTuple_GET_SIZE(), PyTuple_SET_ITEM()
* PyWeakref_GET_OBJECT()
Convert the following Unicode macros to static inline functions.
Surrogate functions:
* Py_UNICODE_IS_SURROGATE()
* Py_UNICODE_IS_HIGH_SURROGATE()
* Py_UNICODE_IS_LOW_SURROGATE()
* Py_UNICODE_HIGH_SURROGATE()
* Py_UNICODE_LOW_SURROGATE()
* Py_UNICODE_JOIN_SURROGATES()
"Is" functions:
* Py_UNICODE_ISALNUM()
* Py_UNICODE_ISSPACE()
In the implementation of these functions, the character type is now
well defined to Py_UCS4.
Convert the following macros to static inline functions:
* PyCell_GET()
* PyCell_SET()
Limited C API version 3.12 no longer casts arguments.
Fix also usage of PyCell_SET(): only delete the old value after
setting the new value.
Remove the token.h header file. There was never any public tokenizer
C API. The token.h header file was only designed to be used by Python
internals.
Move Include/token.h to Include/internal/pycore_token.h. Including
this header file now requires that the Py_BUILD_CORE macro is
defined. It no longer checks for the Py_LIMITED_API macro.
Rename functions:
* PyToken_OneChar() => _PyToken_OneChar()
* PyToken_TwoChars() => _PyToken_TwoChars()
* PyToken_ThreeChars() => _PyToken_ThreeChars()
Convert the following macros to static inline functions:
* _Py_AS_GC()
* _PyGCHead_FINALIZED(), _PyGCHead_SET_FINALIZED()
* _PyGCHead_NEXT(), _PyGCHead_SET_NEXT()
* _PyGCHead_PREV(), _PyGCHead_SET_PREV()
* _PyGC_FINALIZED(), _PyGC_SET_FINALIZED()
* _PyObject_GC_IS_TRACKED()
* _PyObject_GC_MAY_BE_TRACKED()
Add a macro wrapping the _PyObject_GC_IS_TRACKED() function to cast
the argument to PyObject*.
In C++, the _PyObject_EXTRA_INIT macro now uses nullptr, rather than
0, to initialize the _ob_next and _ob_prev members of the PyObject
structure.
Fix test_cppext failure when Python is built with
./configure --with-trace-refs.
Add the -P command line option and the PYTHONSAFEPATH environment
variable to not prepend a potentially unsafe path to sys.path.
* Add sys.flags.safe_path flag.
* Add PyConfig.safe_path member.
* Programs/_bootstrap_python.c uses config.safe_path=0.
* Update subprocess._optim_args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle
the -P command line option.
* Modules/getpath.py sets safe_path to 1 if a "._pth" file is
present.
Convert the following macros to static inline functions:
* PyCFunction_GET_CLASS()
* PyCFunction_GET_FLAGS()
* PyCFunction_GET_FUNCTION()
* PyCFunction_GET_SELF()
Limited C API version 3.11 no longer casts arguments.
Currently, calling Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and
Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() may use a function call or a static inline
function call, depending if the internal pycore_ceval.h header file
is included or not. Use a different name for the static inline
function to ensure that the static inline function is always used in
Python internals for best performance. Similar approach than
PyThreadState_GET() (function call) and _PyThreadState_GET() (static
inline function).
* Rename _Py_EnterRecursiveCall() to _Py_EnterRecursiveCallTstate()
* Rename _Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() to _Py_LeaveRecursiveCallTstate()
* pycore_ceval.h: Rename Py_EnterRecursiveCall() to
_Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() and
_Py_LeaveRecursiveCall()
Fix C++ compiler warnings: "zero as null pointer constant"
(clang -Wzero-as-null-pointer-constant).
* Add the _Py_NULL macro used by static inline functions to use
nullptr in C++.
* Replace NULL with nullptr in _testcppext.cpp.
Use _Py_CAST(), _Py_STATIC_CAST() and _PyASCIIObject_CAST() in
static inline functions to fix C++ compiler warnings:
"use of old-style cast" (clang -Wold-style-cast).
test_cppext now builds the C++ test extension with -Wold-style-cast.
