-Since Incminimark is an incremental GC, the major collection is incremental,
-meaning there should not be any pauses longer than 1ms.
+Since Incminimark is an incremental GC, the major collection is incremental:
+the goal is not to have any pause longer than 1ms, but in practice it depends
+on the size and characteristics of the heap: occasionally, there can be pauses
+between 10-100ms.
+
+
+Semi-manual GC management
+--------------------------
+
+If there are parts of the program where it is important to have a low latency,
+you might want to control precisely when the GC runs, to avoid unexpected
+pauses.  Note that this has effect only on major collections, while minor
+collections continue to work as usual.
+
+As explained above, a full major collection consists of ``N`` steps, where
+``N`` depends on the size of the heap; generally speaking, it is not possible
+to predict how many steps will be needed to complete a collection.
+
+``gc.enable()`` and ``gc.disable()`` control whether the GC runs collection
+steps automatically.  When the GC is disabled the memory usage will grow
+indefinitely, unless you manually call ``gc.collect()`` and
+``gc.collect_step()``.
+
+``gc.collect()`` runs a full major collection.
+
+``gc.collect_step()`` runs a single collection step. It returns an object of
+type GcCollectStepStats_, the same which is passed to the corresponding `GC
+Hooks`_.  The following code is roughly equivalent to a ``gc.collect()``::
+
+    while True:
+        if gc.collect_step().major_is_done:
+            break
+  
+For a real-world example of usage of this API, you can look at the 3rd-party
+module `pypytools.gc.custom`_, which also provides a ``with customgc.nogc()``
+context manager to mark sections where the GC is forbidden.
+
+.. _`pypytools.gc.custom`: https://bitbucket.org/antocuni/pypytools/src/0273afc3e8bedf0eb1ef630c3bc69e8d9dd661fe/pypytools/gc/custom.py?at=default&fileviewer=file-view-default

-Since Incminimark is an incremental GC, the major collection is incremental,
-meaning there should not be any pauses longer than 1ms.
+Since Incminimark is an incremental GC, the major collection is incremental:
+the goal is not to have any pause longer than 1ms, but in practice it depends
+on the size and characteristics of the heap: occasionally, there can be pauses
+between 10-100ms.
+
+
+Semi-manual GC management
+--------------------------
+
+If there are parts of the program where it is important to have a low latency,
+you might want to control precisely when the GC runs, to avoid unexpected
+pauses.  Note that this has effect only on major collections, while minor
+collections continue to work as usual.
+
+As explained above, a full major collection consists of ``N`` steps, where
+``N`` depends on the size of the heap; generally speaking, it is not possible
+to predict how many steps will be needed to complete a collection.
+
+``gc.enable()`` and ``gc.disable()`` control whether the GC runs collection
+steps automatically.  When the GC is disabled the memory usage will grow
+indefinitely, unless you manually call ``gc.collect()`` and
+``gc.collect_step()``.
+
+``gc.collect()`` runs a full major collection.
+
+``gc.collect_step()`` runs a single collection step. It returns an object of
+type GcCollectStepStats_, the same which is passed to the corresponding `GC
+Hooks`_.  The following code is roughly equivalent to a ``gc.collect()``::
+
+    while True:
+        if gc.collect_step().major_is_done:
+            break
+  
+For a real-world example of usage of this API, you can look at the 3rd-party
+module `pypytools.gc.custom`_, which also provides a ``with customgc.nogc()``

   - ``gc.collect_step()`` is a new function which you can use to manually
     execute a single incremental GC collection step.
 
+It is worth to specify that ``gc.disable()`` disables **only** the major
+collections, while minor collections still runs.  Moreover, thanks to the
+JIT's virtuals, many objects with a short and predictable lifetime are not
+allocated at all. The end result is that most objects with short lifetime are
+still collected as usual, so the impact of ``gc.disable()`` on memory growth
+is not as bad as it could sound.
+
 Combining these two functions, it is possible to take control of the GC to
 make sure it runs only when it is acceptable to do so.  For an example of
 usage, you can look at the implementation of a `custom GC`_ inside pypytools_.

+  difference between specifying ``"int[]"`` and using the older code ``p1 =
+  ffi.from_buffer(x); p2 = ffi.cast("int *", p1)`` is that the older code
+  needs to keep ``p1`` alive as long as ``p2`` is in use, because only ``p1``

Subject: [pypy-commit] pypy cpyext-gc-cycle: Added additional flags for
 objects
Message-ID: <5c38723f.1c69fb81.5b3ea.e7ce@mx.google.com>

Author: Stefan Beyer <home at sbeyer.at>
Branch: cpyext-gc-cycle
Changeset: r95598:c03fe327893a
Date: 2018-03-19 10:52 +0100
http://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/changeset/c03fe327893a/

Log:	Added additional flags for objects Implemented refcount overhead
	(for non-cyclic refcount) Implemented buffer for potential roots of
	cycles Fixed assert to allow for recursive cpyext calls Added some
	cycle detection tests from experimental branch (disabled now)

+        replaced with a U+FFFD and the other continuation bytes are handled
+        separately.
+        E.g. in the sequence <E1 80 41>, E1 is the start byte of a 3-bytes
+        sequence, 80 is a valid continuation byte, but 41 is not a valid cb
+        because it's the ASCII letter 'A'.
+        Note: when the start byte is E0 or ED, the valid ranges for the first
+        continuation byte are limited to A0..BF and 80..9F respectively.
+        Python 2 used to consider all the bytes in range 80..BF valid when the
+        start byte was ED.  This is fixed in Python 3.

Log:	change UnicodeDictStrategy to store wrapped unicode objects as keys.
	this lifts the restriction that they are ascii only. the faster hash
	and eq dispatching should still be a big win compared to going
	through the space, despite the keys being wrapped.

 Release Steps
--------------
+++++++++++++++
 
-* If needed, make a release branch
-* Bump the
-  pypy version number in module/sys/version.py and in
-  module/cpyext/include/patchlevel.h and in doc/conf.py. The branch
-  will capture the revision number of this change for the release.
+Make the release branch
+------------------------
 
-  Some of the next updates may be done before or after branching; make
-  sure things are ported back to the trunk and to the branch as
-  necessary.
+This is needed only in case you are doing a new major version; if not, you can
+probably reuse the existing release branch.
+
+We want to be able to freely merge default into the branch and vice-versa;
+thus we need to do a complicate dance to avoid to patch the version number
+when we do a merge::
+
+  $ hg up -r default
+  $ # edit the version to e.g. 7.0.0-final
+  $ hg ci
+  $ hg branch release-pypy2.7-7.x && hg ci
+  $ hg up -r default
+  $ # edit the version to 7.1.0-alpha0
+  $ hg ci
+  $ hg up -r release-pypy2.7-7.x
+  $ hg merge default
+  $ # edit the version to AGAIN 7.0.0-final
+  $ hg ci
+
+Then, we need to do the same for the 3.x branch::
+
+  $ hg up -r py3.5
+  $ hg merge default # this brings the version fo 7.1.0-alpha0
+  $ hg branch release-pypy3.5-7.x
+  $ # edit the version to 7.0.0-final
+  $ hg ci
+  $ hg up -r py3.5
+  $ hg merge release-pypy3.5-7.x
+  $ # edit the version to 7.1.0-alpha0
+  $ hg ci
+
+To change the version, you need to edit three files:
+
+  - ``module/sys/version.py``
+
+  - ``module/cpyext/include/patchlevel.h``
+
+  - ``doc/conf.py``
+
+
+Other steps
+-----------
+
 
 * Make sure the RPython builds on the buildbot pass with no failures

+======================================================
+PyPy v7.0.0: triple release of 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6-alpha
+======================================================
+
+The PyPy team is proud to release the version 7.0.0 of PyPy, which includes
+three different interpreters:
+
+  - PyPy2.7, which is an interpreter supporting the syntax and the features of
+    Python 2.7
+
+  - PyPy3.5, which supports Python 3.5
+
+  - PyPy3.6-alpha: this is the first official release of PyPy to support 3.6
+    features, although it is still considered alpha quality.
+    
+All the interpreters are based on much the same codebase, thus the triple
+release.
+
+XXX write release highlights
+
+You can download the v6.0 releases here:
+
+    http://pypy.org/download.html
+
+We would like to thank our donors for the continued support of the PyPy
+project. If PyPy is not quite good enough for your needs, we are available for
+direct consulting work.
+
+We would also like to thank our contributors and encourage new people to join
+the project. PyPy has many layers and we need help with all of them: `PyPy`_
+and `RPython`_ documentation improvements, tweaking popular `modules`_ to run
+on pypy, or general `help`_ with making RPython's JIT even better.

+.. _`help`: project-ideas.html
+
+
+What is PyPy?
+=============
+
+PyPy is a very compliant Python interpreter, almost a drop-in replacement for
+CPython 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6. It's fast (`PyPy and CPython 2.7.x`_ performance
+comparison) due to its integrated tracing JIT compiler.
+
+We also welcome developers of other `dynamic languages`_ to see what RPython
+can do for them.
+
+The PyPy release supports:
+
+  * **x86** machines on most common operating systems
+    (Linux 32/64 bits, Mac OS X 64 bits, Windows 32 bits, OpenBSD, FreeBSD)
+
+  * big- and little-endian variants of **PPC64** running Linux,
+
+  * **s390x** running Linux
+
+Unfortunately at the moment of writing our ARM buildbots are out of service,
+so for now we are **not** releasing any binary for the ARM architecture.

+===========================================
+PyPy2.7, PyPy3.5. PyPy3.6alpha v7.0 release
+===========================================
+
+The PyPy team is proud to release PyPy2.7 (supporting Python 2.7 syntax),
+PyPy3.5 (supporting Python 3.5 syntax with f-strings from 3.6), and our first
+alpha release of PyPy3.6 for 64-bit linux only (supporting Python 3.6 syntax).
+The releases are based on much the same codebase.
+
+This release is a feature release following our previous 6.0 release in April
+2018. Our C-API compatibility layer ``cpyext`` is more mature, as more projects
+use PyPy3.5 in their CI testing. Since these changes affect the included python
+development header files, all c-extension modules must be recompiled for this
+version.
+
+Until we can work with downstream providers to distribute builds with PyPy, we
+have made packages for some common packages `available as wheels`_.
+
+The GC now has `hooks`_ to gain more insights into its performance, and it is
+now possible to manually manage the GC by using a combination of
+``gc.disable`` and ``gc.collect_step``. See the `GC blog post`_.
+
+
+We updated the `cffi`_ module included in PyPy to version 1.12, and the
+`cppyy`_ backend to 1.4. Please use these to wrap your C and C++ code,
+respectively, for a JIT friendly experience.
+
+As always, this release is 100% compatible with the previous one and fixed
+several issues and bugs raised by the growing community of PyPy users.
+We strongly recommend updating.
+
+The PyPy3.6 release and the Windows PyPy3.5 release are still not production
+quality so your mileage may vary. There are open issues with incomplete
+compatibility and c-extension support.
+
+The utf8 branch that changes internal representation of unicode to utf8 did not
+make it into the release, so there is still more goodness coming.
+
+You can download the v7.0 releases here:
+
+    http://pypy.org/download.html
+
+We would like to thank our donors for the continued support of the PyPy
+project. If PyPy is not quite good enough for your needs, we are available for
+direct consulting work.
+

+and `RPython`_ documentation improvements, tweaking popular `modules`_ to run

 Release Steps
--------------
+++++++++++++++
 
-* If needed, make a release branch
-* Bump the
-  pypy version number in module/sys/version.py and in
-  module/cpyext/include/patchlevel.h and in doc/conf.py. The branch
-  will capture the revision number of this change for the release.
+Make the release branch
+------------------------
 
-  Some of the next updates may be done before or after branching; make
-  sure things are ported back to the trunk and to the branch as
-  necessary.
+This is needed only in case you are doing a new major version; if not, you can
+probably reuse the existing release branch.
+
+We want to be able to freely merge default into the branch and vice-versa;
+thus we need to do a complicate dance to avoid to patch the version number
+when we do a merge::
+
+  $ hg up -r default
+  $ # edit the version to e.g. 7.0.0-final
+  $ hg ci
+  $ hg branch release-pypy2.7-7.x && hg ci
+  $ hg up -r default
+  $ # edit the version to 7.1.0-alpha0
+  $ hg ci
+  $ hg up -r release-pypy2.7-7.x
+  $ hg merge default
+  $ # edit the version to AGAIN 7.0.0-final
+  $ hg ci
+
+Then, we need to do the same for the 3.x branch::
+
+  $ hg up -r py3.5
+  $ hg merge default # this brings the version fo 7.1.0-alpha0
+  $ hg branch release-pypy3.5-7.x
+  $ # edit the version to 7.0.0-final
+  $ hg ci
+  $ hg up -r py3.5
+  $ hg merge release-pypy3.5-7.x
+  $ # edit the version to 7.1.0-alpha0
+  $ hg ci
+
+To change the version, you need to edit three files:
+
+  - ``module/sys/version.py``
+
+  - ``module/cpyext/include/patchlevel.h``
+
+  - ``doc/conf.py``
+
+
+Other steps
+-----------

 * Make sure the RPython builds on the buildbot pass with no failures

Log:	Issue #362

	Add "thread canary" objects which are deallocated if the
	PyThreadState is explicitly deallocated by CPython. If the thread
	shuts down first, then instead the canary is inserted in a zombie
	list. In that case, we clear and delete properly the PyThreadState
	at the next occasion.

+   object of reference count equal to 1, which is stored in the

+
+   1. The PyThreadState can be forcefully cleared by Py_Finalize().

+      of zombies, and at some convenient time later when we have the

+
+   Some more fun comes from the fact that thread_canary_dealloc() can
+   be called at a point where the canary is in the zombie list already.
+   Also, the various pieces are freed at specific points in time, and
+   we must make sure not to access already-freed structures:

Log:	Backed out changeset 7a76a3815340

	On Windows, there is no lround() or (as far as I can find) any math
	function returning an integer.

+======================================================
+PyPy v7.0.0: triple release of 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6-alpha
+======================================================
+
+The PyPy team is proud to release the version 7.0.0 of PyPy, which includes
+three different interpreters:
+
+  - PyPy2.7, which is an interpreter supporting the syntax and the features of
+    Python 2.7
+
+  - PyPy3.5, which supports Python 3.5
+
+  - PyPy3.6-alpha: this is the first official release of PyPy to support 3.6
+    features, although it is still considered alpha quality.
+    
+All the interpreters are based on much the same codebase, thus the triple
+release.
+
+Until we can work with downstream providers to distribute builds with PyPy, we
+have made packages for some common packages `available as wheels`_.
+
+The GC now has `hooks`_ to gain more insights into its performance, and it is
+now possible to manually manage the GC by using a combination of
+``gc.disable`` and ``gc.collect_step``. See the `GC blog post`_.
+
+
+We updated the `cffi`_ module included in PyPy to version 1.12, and the
+`cppyy`_ backend to 1.4. Please use these to wrap your C and C++ code,
+respectively, for a JIT friendly experience.
+
+As always, this release is 100% compatible with the previous one and fixed
+several issues and bugs raised by the growing community of PyPy users.
+We strongly recommend updating.
+
+The PyPy3.6 release and the Windows PyPy3.5 release are still not production
+quality so your mileage may vary. There are open issues with incomplete
+compatibility and c-extension support.
+
+The utf8 branch that changes internal representation of unicode to utf8 did not
+make it into the release, so there is still more goodness coming.
+You can download the v6.0 releases here:
+
+    http://pypy.org/download.html
+
+We would like to thank our donors for the continued support of the PyPy
+project. If PyPy is not quite good enough for your needs, we are available for
+direct consulting work.
+
+We would also like to thank our contributors and encourage new people to join
+the project. PyPy has many layers and we need help with all of them: `PyPy`_
+and `RPython`_ documentation improvements, tweaking popular `modules`_ to run
+on pypy, or general `help`_ with making RPython's JIT even better.

+
+
+What is PyPy?
+=============
+
+PyPy is a very compliant Python interpreter, almost a drop-in replacement for
+CPython 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6. It's fast (`PyPy and CPython 2.7.x`_ performance
+comparison) due to its integrated tracing JIT compiler.
+
+We also welcome developers of other `dynamic languages`_ to see what RPython
+can do for them.
+
+The PyPy release supports:
+
+  * **x86** machines on most common operating systems
+    (Linux 32/64 bits, Mac OS X 64 bits, Windows 32 bits, OpenBSD, FreeBSD)
+
+  * big- and little-endian variants of **PPC64** running Linux,
+
+  * **s390x** running Linux
+
+Unfortunately at the moment of writing our ARM buildbots are out of service,
+so for now we are **not** releasing any binary for the ARM architecture.
+
+.. _`PyPy and CPython 2.7.x`: http://speed.pypy.org
+.. _`dynamic languages`: http://rpython.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples.html
+

+* Pre-emptively raise MemoryError if the size of dequeue in ``_collections.deque``
+  is too large (Py3.5)
+* Fix multithreading issues in calls to ``os.setenv``
+* Add missing defines and typedefs for numpy and pandas on MSVC

+* Fix Windows ``os.listdir()`` for some cases (see CPython #32539)
+* Add ``select.PIPE_BUF``
+* Use ``subprocess`` to avoid shell injection in ``shutil`` module
+* Rename ``_Py_ZeroStruct`` to ``_Py_FalseStruct`` (Py3.5, Py3.6)
+* Remove some cpyext names for Py3.5, Py3.6
+* Enable use of unicode file names in ``dlopen``
+* Backport CPython fix for ``thread.RLock``
+* Make GC hooks measure time in seconds (as opposed to an opaque unit)

+* Check error values in ``socket.setblocking`` (Py3.6)
+* Add support for FsPath to os.unlink() (Py3.6)
+* Fix freezing builtin modules at translation
+* Tweak ``W_UnicodeDictionaryStrategy`` which speeds up dictionaries with only
+  unicode keys
+
+We also refactored many parts of the JIT bridge optimizations, as well as cpyext
+internals, and together with new contributors fixed issues, added new
+documentation, and cleaned up the codebase.

Log:	Increase testing coverage and refactor method names

	Making `pkgconfig.call` function accessible, tests can monkey patch
	it and provide mock. This improves testing, however raised a need to
	give functions better names than `pkgconfig.pkgconfig_kwargs` or
	`pkgconfig.pc`.

+ * analysis below.
+ *
+ * There are two versions of this code: one inside libffi itself, and
+ * one inside malloc_closure.h here.  Both should be fine as long as the
+ * Linux distribution does _not_ enable extra security features.  If it
+ * does, then the code in malloc_closure.h will cleanly crash because
+ * there is no reasonable way to obtain a read-write-execute memory
+ * page.  On the other hand, the code in libffi will appear to
+ * work---but will actually randomly crash after a fork() if the child
+ * does not immediately call exec().  This second crash is of the kind
+ * that can be turned into an attack vector by a motivated attacker.
+ * So, _enabling_ extra security features _opens_ an attack vector.
+ * That sounds like a horribly bad idea to me, and is the reason for why
+ * I prefer CFFI crashing cleanly.
+ *
+ * Currently, we use libffi's ffi_closure_alloc() only on NetBSD.  It is
+ * known that on the NetBSD kernel, a different strategy is used which
+ * should not be open to the fork() bug.

Log:	Real test of a pkgconfig integration

	Fix encoding errors

	Given testing Python program ``` from cffi import FFI ffibuilder =
	FFI()

	ffibuilder.cdef( "char* zsys_hostname();" )

	ffibuilder.set_source( "_czmq", "#include <czmq.h>",
	pkgconfig=["libczmq"] )

	 if __name__ == "__main__": ffibuilder.compile(verbose=True) ```

	We can run ffibuilder from source dir of czmq

	``` PKG_CONFIG_PATH=`pwd`/src python3 t.py generating ./_czmq.c ...
	gcc -pthread -shared -flto -fuse-linker-plugin -ffat-lto-objects
	-flto-partition=none ./_czmq.o -L/usr/local/lib64 -L/usr/lib64
	-lczmq -lzmq -lpython3.6m -o ./_czmq.cpython-36m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
	```

	``` python3 t.py generating ./_czmq.c ... gcc -pthread -shared -flto
	-fuse-linker-plugin -ffat-lto-objects -flto-partition=none ./_czmq.o
	-L/usr/lib64 -lczmq -lpython3.6m -o ./_czmq.cpython-36m-x86_64
	-linux-gnu.so ```

	Note that in the first case `/usr/local` has been added to the
	compiler path as provided by local pkg-config file.

Log:	Define and raise specific hierarchy of exceptions

	* PkgConfigNotFound - not installed
	* PkgConfigError - base pkg-config errors
	    * PkgConfigModuleNotFound - pc file for module was not found
	    * PkgConfigModuleVersionNotFound - requested version was not found

	Boilerplate now looks ``` from cffi.error import PkgConfigNotFound,
	PkgConfigError ... try: # try pkg-config way
	ffibuilder.set_source(..., pkgconfig=["libczmq >= 4.0.0"]) except
	PkgConfigNotFound as e: # if pkg-config is not installed, try backup
	ffibuilder.set_source(..., libraries=["czmq", "zmq", "uuid", "pgm"])
	except PkgConfigError as e: # here we catch both
	PkgConfigModuleNotFound and PkgConfigModuleVersionNotFound # and
	raise it again - simply to show they are raised raise e from None
	```

 Release Steps
--------------
+++++++++++++++
 
-* If needed, make a release branch
-* Bump the
-  pypy version number in module/sys/version.py and in
-  module/cpyext/include/patchlevel.h and in doc/conf.py. The branch
-  will capture the revision number of this change for the release.
+Make the release branch
+------------------------
 
-  Some of the next updates may be done before or after branching; make
-  sure things are ported back to the trunk and to the branch as
-  necessary.
+This is needed only in case you are doing a new major version; if not, you can
+probably reuse the existing release branch.
+
+We want to be able to freely merge default into the branch and vice-versa;
+thus we need to do a complicate dance to avoid to patch the version number
+when we do a merge::
+
+  $ hg up -r default
+  $ # edit the version to e.g. 7.0.0-final
+  $ hg ci
+  $ hg branch release-pypy2.7-7.x && hg ci
+  $ hg up -r default
+  $ # edit the version to 7.1.0-alpha0
+  $ hg ci
+  $ hg up -r release-pypy2.7-7.x
+  $ hg merge default
+  $ # edit the version to AGAIN 7.0.0-final
+  $ hg ci
+
+Then, we need to do the same for the 3.x branch::
+
+  $ hg up -r py3.5
+  $ hg merge default # this brings the version fo 7.1.0-alpha0
+  $ hg branch release-pypy3.5-7.x
+  $ # edit the version to 7.0.0-final
+  $ hg ci
+  $ hg up -r py3.5
+  $ hg merge release-pypy3.5-7.x
+  $ # edit the version to 7.1.0-alpha0
+  $ hg ci
+
+To change the version, you need to edit three files:
+
+  - ``module/sys/version.py``
+
+  - ``module/cpyext/include/patchlevel.h``
+
+  - ``doc/conf.py``
+
+
+Other steps
+-----------
+
 
 * Make sure the RPython builds on the buildbot pass with no failures

+======================================================
+PyPy v7.0.0: triple release of 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6-alpha
+======================================================
+
+The PyPy team is proud to release the version 7.0.0 of PyPy, which includes
+three different interpreters:
+
+  - PyPy2.7, which is an interpreter supporting the syntax and the features of
+    Python 2.7
+
+  - PyPy3.5, which supports Python 3.5
+
+  - PyPy3.6-alpha: this is the first official release of PyPy to support 3.6
+    features, although it is still considered alpha quality.
+    
+All the interpreters are based on much the same codebase, thus the triple
+release.
+
+Until we can work with downstream providers to distribute builds with PyPy, we
+have made packages for some common packages `available as wheels`_.
+
+The GC now has `hooks`_ to gain more insights into its performance, and it is
+now possible to manually manage the GC by using a combination of
+``gc.disable`` and ``gc.collect_step``. See the `GC blog post`_.
+
+
+We updated the `cffi`_ module included in PyPy to version 1.12, and the
+`cppyy`_ backend to 1.4. Please use these to wrap your C and C++ code,
+respectively, for a JIT friendly experience.
+
+As always, this release is 100% compatible with the previous one and fixed
+several issues and bugs raised by the growing community of PyPy users.
+We strongly recommend updating.
+
+The PyPy3.6 release and the Windows PyPy3.5 release are still not production
+quality so your mileage may vary. There are open issues with incomplete
+compatibility and c-extension support.
+
+The utf8 branch that changes internal representation of unicode to utf8 did not
+make it into the release, so there is still more goodness coming.
+You can download the v6.0 releases here:
+
+    http://pypy.org/download.html
+
+We would like to thank our donors for the continued support of the PyPy
+project. If PyPy is not quite good enough for your needs, we are available for
+direct consulting work.
+
+We would also like to thank our contributors and encourage new people to join
+the project. PyPy has many layers and we need help with all of them: `PyPy`_
+and `RPython`_ documentation improvements, tweaking popular `modules`_ to run
+on pypy, or general `help`_ with making RPython's JIT even better.

+
+What is PyPy?
+=============
+
+PyPy is a very compliant Python interpreter, almost a drop-in replacement for
+CPython 2.7, 3.5 and 3.6. It's fast (`PyPy and CPython 2.7.x`_ performance
+comparison) due to its integrated tracing JIT compiler.
+
+We also welcome developers of other `dynamic languages`_ to see what RPython
+can do for them.
+
+The PyPy release supports:
+
+  * **x86** machines on most common operating systems
+    (Linux 32/64 bits, Mac OS X 64 bits, Windows 32 bits, OpenBSD, FreeBSD)
+
+  * big- and little-endian variants of **PPC64** running Linux,
+
+  * **s390x** running Linux
+
+Unfortunately at the moment of writing our ARM buildbots are out of service,
+so for now we are **not** releasing any binary for the ARM architecture.

+If not specified, the changes are shared across versions
+
+* Support ``__set_name__``, ``__init_subclass__`` (Py3.6)
+* Support ``cppyy`` in Py3.5 and Py3.6
+* Use implementation-specific site directories in ``sysconfig`` (Py3.5, Py3.6)
+* Adding detection of gcc to ``sysconfig`` (Py3.5, Py3.6)
+* Fix multiprocessing regression on newer glibcs
+* Make sure 'blocking-ness' of socket is set along with default timeout
+* Include ``crypt.h`` for ``crypt()`` on Linux
+* Improve and re-organize the contributing_ documentation
+* Make the ``__module__`` attribute writable, fixing an incompatibility with
+  NumPy 1.16

+* Log additional gc-minor and gc-collect-step info in the PYPYLOG
+* The ``reverse-debugger`` (revdb) branch has been merged to the default
+  branch, so it should always be up-to-date.  You still need a special pypy
+  build, but you can compile it from the same source as the one we distribute
+  for the v7.0.0 release.  For more information, see
+  https://bitbucket.org/pypy/revdb
+* Support underscores in numerical literals like ``'4_2'`` (Py3.6)

+* Speed up ``max(list-of-int)`` from non-jitted code
+* Fix Windows ``os.listdir()`` for some cases (see CPython #32539)
+* Add ``select.PIPE_BUF``
+* Use ``subprocess`` to avoid shell injection in ``shutil`` module - backport
+  of https://bugs.python.org/issue34540
+* Rename ``_Py_ZeroStruct`` to ``_Py_FalseStruct`` (Py3.5, Py3.6)
+* Remove some cpyext names for Py3.5, Py3.6
+* Enable use of unicode file names in ``dlopen``
+* Backport CPython fix for ``thread.RLock``
+* Make GC hooks measure time in seconds (as opposed to an opaque unit)
+* Refactor and reorganize tests in ``test_lib_pypy``
+* Check error values in ``socket.setblocking`` (Py3.6)
+* Add support for FsPath to os.unlink() (Py3.6)
+* Fix freezing builtin modules at translation
+* Tweak ``W_UnicodeDictionaryStrategy`` which speeds up dictionaries with only
+  unicode keys
+
+We also refactored many parts of the JIT bridge optimizations, as well as cpyext
+internals, and together with new contributors fixed issues, added new
+documentation, and cleaned up the codebase.

 Making a debug build of PyPy
 ----------------------------
 
-If the Makefile is rerun with the lldebug or lldebug0 target, appropriate
-compilation flags are added to add debug info and reduce compiler optimizations
-to ``-O0`` respectively. If you stop in a debugger, you will see the
-very wordy machine-generated C code from the rpython translation step, which
-takes a little bit of reading to relate back to the rpython code.
+Rerun the ``Makefile`` with the ``make lldebug`` or ``make lldebug0`` target,
+which will build in a way that running under a debugger makes sense.
+Appropriate compilation flags are added to add debug info, and for ``lldebug0``
+compiler optimizations are fully disabled. If you stop in a debugger, you will
