* error_already_set::what() is now constructed lazily
Prior to this commit throwing error_already_set was expensive due to the
eager construction of the error string (which required traversing the
Python stack). See #1853 for more context and an alternative take on the
issue.
Note that error_already_set no longer inherits from std::runtime_error
because the latter has no default constructor.
* Do not attempt to normalize if no exception occurred
This is not supported on PyPy-2.7 5.8.0.
* Extract exception name via tp_name
This is faster than dynamically looking up __name__ via GetAttrString.
Note though that the runtime of the code throwing an error_already_set
will be dominated by stack unwinding so the improvement will not be
noticeable.
Before:
396 ns ± 0.913 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000000 loops each)
After:
277 ns ± 0.549 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000000 loops each)
Benchmark:
const std::string foo() {
PyErr_SetString(PyExc_KeyError, "");
const std::string &s = py::detail::error_string();
PyErr_Clear();
return s;
}
PYBIND11_MODULE(foo, m) {
m.def("foo", &::foo);
}
* Reverted error_already_set to subclass std::runtime_error
* Revert "Extract exception name via tp_name"
The implementation of __name__ is slightly more complex than that.
It handles the module name prefix, and heap-allocated types. We could
port it to pybind11 later on but for now it seems like an overkill.
This reverts commit f1435c7e6b.
* Cosmit following @YannickJadoul's comments
Note that detail::error_string() no longer calls PyException_SetTraceback
as it is unncessary for pretty-printing the exception.

* Try specifying noexcept again
* Try explicit ctor
* default ctor is noexcept too
* Apply reviewer suggestions, simplify code, and make helper method private
* Remove unnecessary include
* Clang-Tidy fix
* detail::obj_class_name(), fprintf with [STDERR], [STDOUT] tags, polish comments
* consistently check m_lazy_what.empty() also in production builds
* Make a comment slightly less ambiguous.
* Bug fix: Remove `what();` from `restore()`.
It sure would need to be guarded by `if (m_type)`, otherwise `what()` fails and masks that no error was set (see update unit test). But since `error_already_set` is copyable, there is no point in releasing m_type, m_value, m_trace, therefore we can just as well avoid the runtime overhead of force-building `m_lazy_what`, it may never be used.
* Replace extremely opaque (unhelpful) error message with a truthful reflection of what we know.
* Fix clang-tidy error [performance-move-constructor-init].
* Make expected error message less specific.
* Various changes.
* bug fix: error_string(PyObject **, ...)
* Putting back the two eager PyErr_NormalizeException() calls.
* Change error_already_set() to call pybind11_fail() if the Python error indicator not set. The net result is that a std::runtime_error is thrown instead of error_already_set, but all tests pass as is.
* Remove mutable (fixes oversight in the previous commit).
* Normalize the exception only locally in error_string(). Python 3.6 & 3.7 test failures expected. This is meant for benchmarking, to determine if it is worth the trouble looking into the failures.
* clang-tidy: use auto
* Use `gil_scoped_acquire_local` in `error_already_set` destructor. See long comment.
* For Python < 3.8: `PyErr_NormalizeException` before `PyErr_WriteUnraisable`
* Go back to replacing the held Python exception with then normalized exception, if & when needed. Consistently document the side-effect.
* Slightly rewording comment. (There were also other failures.)
* Add 1-line comment for obj_class_name()
* Benchmark code, with results in this commit message.

* Add call_error_string to tests. Sample only recursion_depth 0, 100.
* Show lazy-what speed-up in percent.
* Include real_work in benchmarks.
* Replace all PyErr_SetString() with generate_python_exception_with_traceback()
* Better organization of test loops.
* Add test_error_already_set_copy_move
* Fix bug in newly added test (discovered by clang-tidy): actually use move ctor
* MSVC detects the unreachable return
* change test_perf_error_already_set.py back to quick mode
* Inherit from std::exception (instead of std::runtime_error, which does not make sense anymore with the lazy what)
* Special handling under Windows.
* print with leading newline
* Removing test_perf_error_already_set (copies are under 7765113fbb).
* Avoid gil and scope overhead if there is nothing to release.
* Restore default move ctor. "member function" instead of "function" (note that "method" is Python terminology).
* Delete error_already_set copy ctor.
* Make restore() non-const again to resolve clang-tidy failure (still experimenting).
* Bring back error_already_set copy ctor, to see if that resolves the 4 MSVC test failures.
* Add noexcept to error_already_set copy & move ctors (as suggested by @skylion007 IIUC).
* Trying one-by-one noexcept copy ctor for old compilers.
* Add back test covering copy ctor. Add another simple test that exercises the copy ctor.
* Exclude more older compilers from using the noexcept = default ctors. (The tests in the previous commit exposed that those are broken.)
* Factor out & reuse gil_scoped_acquire_local as gil_scoped_acquire_simple
* Guard gil_scoped_acquire_simple by _Py_IsFinalizing() check.
* what() GIL safety
* clang-tidy & Python 3.6 fixes
* Use `gil_scoped_acquire` in dtor, copy ctor, `what()`. Remove `_Py_IsFinalizing()` checks (they are racy: https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/28525).
* Remove error_scope from copy ctor.
* Add `error_scope` to `get_internals()`, to cover the situation that `get_internals()` is called from the `error_already_set` dtor while a new Python error is in flight already. Also backing out `gil_scoped_acquire_simple` change.
* Add `FlakyException` tests with failure triggers in `__init__` and `__str__`
THIS IS STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS. This commit is only an important resting point.
This commit is a first attempt at addressing the observation that `PyErr_NormalizeException()` completely replaces the original exception if `__init__` fails. This can be very confusing even in small applications, and extremely confusing in large ones.
* Tweaks to resolve Py 3.6 and PyPy CI failures.
* Normalize Python exception immediately in error_already_set ctor.
For background see: https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1895#issuecomment-1135304081
* Fix oversights based on CI failures (copy & move ctor initialization).
* Move @pytest.mark.xfail("env.PYPY") after @pytest.mark.parametrize(...)
* Use @pytest.mark.skipif (xfail does not work for segfaults, of course).
* Remove unused obj_class_name_or() function (it was added only under this PR).
* Remove already obsolete C++ comments and code that were added only under this PR.
* Slightly better (newly added) comments.
* Factor out detail::error_fetch_and_normalize. Preparation for producing identical results from error_already_set::what() and detail::error_string(). Note that this is a very conservative refactoring. It would be much better to first move detail::error_string into detail/error_string.h
* Copy most of error_string() code to new error_fetch_and_normalize::complete_lazy_error_string()
* Remove all error_string() code from detail/type_caster_base.h. Note that this commit includes a subtle bug fix: previously error_string() restored the Python error, which will upset pybind11_fail(). This never was a problem in practice because the two PyType_Ready() calls in detail/class.h do not usually fail.
* Return const std::string& instead of const char * and move error_string() to pytypes.h
* Remove gil_scope_acquire from error_fetch_and_normalize, add back to error_already_set
* Better handling of FlakyException __str__ failure.
* Move error_fetch_and_normalize::complete_lazy_error_string() implementation from pybind11.h to pytypes.h
* Add error_fetch_and_normalize::release_py_object_references() and use from error_already_set dtor.
* Use shared_ptr for m_fetched_error => 1. non-racy, copy ctor that does not need the GIL; 2. enables guard against duplicate restore() calls.
* Add comments.
* Trivial renaming of a newly introduced member function.
* Workaround for PyPy
* Bug fix (oversight). Only valgrind got this one.
* Use shared_ptr custom deleter for m_fetched_error in error_already_set. This enables removing the dtor, copy ctor, move ctor completely.
* Further small simplification. With the GIL held, simply deleting the raw_ptr takes care of everything.
* IWYU cleanup

iwyu version: include-what-you-use 0.17 based on Debian clang version 13.0.1-3+build2
```
Command used:
```
iwyu -c -std=c++17 -DPYBIND11_TEST_BOOST -Iinclude/pybind11 -I/usr/include/python3.9 -I/usr/include/eigen3 include/pybind11/pytypes.cpp
```
pytypes.cpp is a temporary file: `#include "pytypes.h"`
The raw output is very long and noisy.
I decided to use `#include <cstddef>` instead of `#include <cstdio>` for `std::size_t` (iwyu sticks to the manual choice).
I ignored all iwyu suggestions that are indirectly covered by `#include <Python.h>`.
I manually verified that all added includes are actually needed.

* Add frozenset, and allow it cast to std::set
For the reverse direction, std::set still casts to set. This is in concordance with the behavior for sequence containers, where e.g. tuple casts to std::vector but std::vector casts to list.
Extracted from #3886.
* Rename set_base to any_set to match Python C API
since this will be part of pybind11 public API
* PR: static_cast, anyset
* Add tests for frozenset
and rename anyset methods
* Remove frozenset default ctor, add tests
Making frozenset non-default constructible means that we need to adjust pyobject_caster to not require that its value is default constructible, by initializing value to a nil handle. This also allows writing C++ functions taking anyset, and is arguably a performance improvement, since there is no need to allocate an object that will just be replaced by load.
Add some more tests, including anyset::empty, anyset::size, set::add and set::clear.
