Mark Shannon on python-dev:

The following API functions were removed from 3.1.3:

PyAST_Compile
PyCObject_AsVoidPtr
PyCObject_FromVoidPtr
PyCObject_FromVoidPtrAndDesc
PyCObject_GetDesc
PyCObject_Import
PyCObject_SetVoidPtr
PyCode_CheckLineNumber
Py_CompileStringFlags
PyEval_CallObject
PyOS_ascii_atof
PyOS_ascii_formatd
PyOS_ascii_strtod
PyThread_exit_prog
PyThread__PyThread_exit_prog
PyThread__PyThread_exit_thread
PyUnicode_SetDefaultEncoding

And the following were added to 3.2,
of which only 2 are documented:

PyArg_ValidateKeywordArguments
PyAST_CompileEx
Py_CompileString
Py_CompileStringExFlags
PyErr_NewExceptionWithDoc    (documented)
PyErr_SyntaxLocationEx
PyErr_WarnFormat
PyFrame_GetLineNumber
PyImport_ExecCodeModuleWithPathnames
PyImport_GetMagicTag
PyLong_AsLongLongAndOverflow    (documented)
PyModule_GetFilenameObject
Py_SetPath
PyStructSequence_GetItem
PyStructSequence_NewType
PyStructSequence_SetItem
PySys_AddWarnOptionUnicode
PySys_AddXOption
PySys_FormatStderr
PySys_FormatStdout
PySys_GetXOptions
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed
PyType_FromSpec
PyUnicode_AsUnicodeCopy
PyUnicode_AsWideCharString
PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault
PyUnicode_FSDecoder
Py_UNICODE_strcat
Py_UNICODE_strncmp
Py_UNICODE_strrchr
PyUnicode_TransformDecimalToASCII

For added confusion PySys_SetArgvEx is documented as
new in 3.2, but exists in 3.1.3

Note that this only include functions.
The API also includes a number of macros such as
Py_False and Py_RETURN_FALSE, types ,
and data like PyBool_Type.

> PyErr_WarnFormat

is already documented in Doc/c-api/exceptions.rst

> PyImport_ExecCodeModuleWithPathnames

is already documented in Doc/c-api/import.rst

> PyModule_GetFilenameObject

is already documented in Doc/c-api/module.rst

> PySys_AddWarnOptionUnicode, PySys_FormatStderr and PySys_FormatStdout

are already documented in Doc/c-api/sys.rst

> PyUnicode_AsUnicodeCopy, PyUnicode_AsWideCharString, PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault and PyUnicode_FSDecoder

are already documented in Doc/c-api/unicode.rst

Mark Shannon should read the documentation more carefuly.

> Py_UNICODE_strcat, Py_UNICODE_strncmp, Py_UNICODE_strrchr

See issue #10435 (with a patch) for these functions.

> PyThread_acquire_lock_timed

It's on purpose that I didn't document this one. I'm not sure the PyThread_ APIs should be used by third-party extensions; so I'd prefer to hear about potential users before starting documenting it (and being tied by compatibility issues).

In fact, most of the functions are documented.  (Mark S. apparently referred to the "What's new" document when talking about "documented" functions.)

Missing are:

PyAST_CompileEx (because PyAST_Compile wasn't documented either)
PyStructSequence_*
PyType_FromSpec

and the PyThread one which Antoine already mentioned.

PyEval_CallObject wasn't removed. It's a macro now. And it was documented for a long time in Extending Python... in fact, the documentation was removed, not the API :-)

PyAST_CompileEx was removed in 3.10 and PyType_FromSpec, PyStructSequence_* are documented now.

PyThread_acquire_lock_timed is not, but I understand this is deliberate.

I think this is complete, so I'll close this if nobody will object.

I concur, please close it ;-)
