* The majority of the monitoring code is in instrumentation.c
* The new instrumentation bytecodes are in bytecodes.c
* legacy_tracing.c adapts the new API to the old sys.setrace and sys.setprofile APIs
Moving it valuable with a per-interpreter GIL. However, it is also useful without one, since it allows us to identify refleaks within a single interpreter or where references are escaping an interpreter. This becomes more important as we move the obmalloc state to PyInterpreterState.
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/102304
The essentially eliminates the global variable, with the associated benefits. This is also a precursor to isolating this bit of state to PyInterpreterState.
Folks that currently read _Py_RefTotal directly would have to start using _Py_GetGlobalRefTotal() instead.
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/102304
When __getattr__ is defined, python with try to find an attribute using _PyObject_GenericGetAttrWithDict
find nothing is reasonable so we don't need an exception, it will hurt performance.
* Make sure that the current exception is always normalized.
* Remove redundant type and traceback fields for the current exception.
* Add new API functions: PyErr_GetRaisedException, PyErr_SetRaisedException
* Add new API functions: PyException_GetArgs, PyException_SetArgs
We've factored out a struct from the two PyThreadState fields. This accomplishes two things:
* make it clear that the trashcan-related code doesn't need any other parts of PyThreadState
* allows us to use the trashcan mechanism even when there isn't a "current" thread state
We still expect the caller to hold the GIL.
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/59956
* code_sizeof() now uses an unsigned type (size_t) to compute the result.
* Fix _PyObject_ComputedDictPointer(): cast _PyObject_VAR_SIZE() to
Py_ssize_t, rather than long: it's a different type on 64-bit Windows.
* Clarify that _PyObject_VAR_SIZE() uses an unsigned type (size_t).
Work on test coverage for `PyObject_Print` made it clear that some lines can't get executed.
Simplify the function by excluding the checks for non-string types.
Also eliminate creating a temporary bytes object.
* Make sure that tp_dictoffset is correct with Py_TPFLAGS_MANAGED_DICT is set.
* Avoid traversing managed dict twice when subclassing class with Py_TPFLAGS_MANAGED_DICT set.
This is the first of several precursors to storing tp_subclasses (and tp_weaklist) on the interpreter state for static builtin types.
We do the following:
* add `_PyStaticType_InitBuiltin()`
* add `_Py_TPFLAGS_STATIC_BUILTIN`
* set it on all static builtin types in `_PyStaticType_InitBuiltin()`
* shuffle some code around to be able to use _PyStaticType_InitBuiltin()
* rename `_PyStructSequence_InitType()` to `_PyStructSequence_InitBuiltinWithFlags()`
* add `_PyStructSequence_InitBuiltin()`.
Move the follow functions and type from frameobject.h to pyframe.h,
so the standard <Python.h> provide frame getter functions:
* PyFrame_Check()
* PyFrame_GetBack()
* PyFrame_GetBuiltins()
* PyFrame_GetGenerator()
* PyFrame_GetGlobals()
* PyFrame_GetLasti()
* PyFrame_GetLocals()
* PyFrame_Type
Remove #include "frameobject.h" from many C files. It's no longer
needed.
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.
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*.
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()
When an exception is created in a nested call to PyObject_GetAttr, any
external calls will override the context information of the
AttributeError that we have already placed in the most internal call.
This will cause the suggestions we create to nor work properly as the
attribute name and object that we will be using are the incorrect ones.
To avoid this, we need to check first if these attributes are already
set and bail out if that's the case.
We're no longer using _Py_IDENTIFIER() (or _Py_static_string()) in any core CPython code. It is still used in a number of non-builtin stdlib modules.
The replacement is: PyUnicodeObject (not pointer) fields under _PyRuntimeState, statically initialized as part of _PyRuntime. A new _Py_GET_GLOBAL_IDENTIFIER() macro facilitates lookup of the fields (along with _Py_GET_GLOBAL_STRING() for non-identifier strings).
https://bugs.python.org/issue46541#msg411799 explains the rationale for this change.
The core of the change is in:
* (new) Include/internal/pycore_global_strings.h - the declarations for the global strings, along with the macros
* Include/internal/pycore_runtime_init.h - added the static initializers for the global strings
* Include/internal/pycore_global_objects.h - where the struct in pycore_global_strings.h is hooked into _PyRuntimeState
* Tools/scripts/generate_global_objects.py - added generation of the global string declarations and static initializers
I've also added a --check flag to generate_global_objects.py (along with make check-global-objects) to check for unused global strings. That check is added to the PR CI config.
The remainder of this change updates the core code to use _Py_GET_GLOBAL_IDENTIFIER() instead of _Py_IDENTIFIER() and the related _Py*Id functions (likewise for _Py_GET_GLOBAL_STRING() instead of _Py_static_string()). This includes adding a few functions where there wasn't already an alternative to _Py*Id(), replacing the _Py_Identifier * parameter with PyObject *.
The following are not changed (yet):
* stop using _Py_IDENTIFIER() in the stdlib modules
* (maybe) get rid of _Py_IDENTIFIER(), etc. entirely -- this may not be doable as at least one package on PyPI using this (private) API
* (maybe) intern the strings during runtime init
https://bugs.python.org/issue46541
Add _PyUnicode_FiniTypes() function, called by
finalize_interp_types(). It clears these static types:
* EncodingMapType
* PyFieldNameIter_Type
* PyFormatterIter_Type
_PyStaticType_Dealloc() now does nothing if tp_subclasses
is not NULL.
* Move PyContext static types into object.c static_types list.
* Rename PyContextTokenMissing_Type to _PyContextTokenMissing_Type
and declare it in pycore_context.h.
* _PyHamtItems types are no long exported: replace PyAPI_DATA() with
extern.
Add types removed by mistake by the commit adding
_PyTypes_FiniTypes().
Move also PyBool_Type at the end, since it depends on PyLong_Type.
PyBytes_Type and PyUnicode_Type no longer depend explicitly on
PyBaseObject_Type: it's the default of PyType_Ready().
Add _PyTypes_FiniTypes() best-effort function to clear static types:
don't deallocate a type if it still has subclasses.
remove_subclass() now sets tp_subclasses to NULL when removing the
last subclass.
This change is strictly renames and moving code around. It helps in the following ways:
* ensures type-related init functions focus strictly on one of the three aspects (state, objects, types)
* passes in PyInterpreterState * to all those functions, simplifying work on moving types/objects/state to the interpreter
* consistent naming conventions help make what's going on more clear
* keeping API related to a type in the corresponding header file makes it more obvious where to look for it
https://bugs.python.org/issue46008
Rename Include/namespaceobject.h to
Include/internal/pycore_namespace.h.
The _testmultiphase extension is now built with the
Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro defined to access _PyNamespace_Type.
object.c: remove unused "pycore_context.h" include.
* Never change types' cached keys. It could invalidate inline attribute objects.
* Lazily create object dictionaries.
* Update specialization of LOAD/STORE_ATTR.
* Don't update shared keys version for deletion of value.
* Update gdb support to handle instance values.
* Rename SPLIT_KEYS opcodes to INSTANCE_VALUE.
* Move _PyObject_CallNoArgs() to pycore_call.h (internal C API).
* _ssl, _sqlite and _testcapi extensions now call the public
PyObject_CallNoArgs() function, rather than _PyObject_CallNoArgs().
* _lsprof extension is now built with Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro
defined to get access to internal _PyObject_CallNoArgs().
Fix typo in the private _PyObject_CallNoArg() function name: rename
it to _PyObject_CallNoArgs() to be consistent with the public
function PyObject_CallNoArgs().
_PyObject_GetMethod() now uses _PyType_IsReady() to decide if
PyType_Ready() must be called or not, rather than testing if
tp->tp_dict is NULL.
Move also variable declarations closer to where they are used, and
use Py_NewRef().
Remove 4 C API private trashcan functions which were only kept for
the backward compatibility of the stable ABI with Python 3.8 and
older, since the trashcan API was not usable with the limited C API
on Python 3.8 and older. The trashcan API was excluded from the
limited C API in Python 3.9.
Removed functions:
* _PyTrash_deposit_object()
* _PyTrash_destroy_chain()
* _PyTrash_thread_deposit_object()
* _PyTrash_thread_destroy_chain()
The trashcan C API was never usable with the limited C API, since old
trashcan macros accessed directly PyThreadState members like
"_tstate->trash_delete_nesting", whereas the PyThreadState structure
is opaque in the limited C API.
Exclude also the PyTrash_UNWIND_LEVEL constant from the C API.
The trashcan C API was modified in Python 3.9 by commit
38965ec541 and in Python 3.10 by commit
ed1a5a5bac to hide implementation
details.
When printing AttributeError, PyErr_Display will offer suggestions of similar
attribute names in the object that the exception was raised from:
>>> collections.namedtoplo
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: module 'collections' has no attribute 'namedtoplo'. Did you mean: namedtuple?
Add the Py_Is(x, y) function to test if the 'x' object is the 'y'
object, the same as "x is y" in Python. Add also the Py_IsNone(),
Py_IsTrue(), Py_IsFalse() functions to test if an object is,
respectively, the None singleton, the True singleton or the False
singleton.
The limited C API is now supported if Python is built in debug mode
(if the Py_DEBUG macro is defined). In the limited C API, the
Py_INCREF() and Py_DECREF() functions are now implemented as opaque
function calls, rather than accessing directly the PyObject.ob_refcnt
member, if Python is built in debug mode and the Py_LIMITED_API macro
targets Python 3.10 or newer. It became possible to support the
limited C API in debug mode because the PyObject structure is the
same in release and debug mode since Python 3.8 (see bpo-36465).
The limited C API is still not supported in the --with-trace-refs
special build (Py_TRACE_REFS macro).
No longer use deprecated aliases to functions:
* Replace PyObject_MALLOC() with PyObject_Malloc()
* Replace PyObject_REALLOC() with PyObject_Realloc()
* Replace PyObject_FREE() with PyObject_Free()
* Replace PyObject_Del() with PyObject_Free()
* Replace PyObject_DEL() with PyObject_Free()
The Py_TRASHCAN_BEGIN macro no longer accesses PyTypeObject attributes,
but now can get the condition by calling the new private
_PyTrash_cond() function which hides implementation details.
The PyObject_INIT() and PyObject_INIT_VAR() macros become aliases to,
respectively, PyObject_Init() and PyObject_InitVar() functions.
Rename _PyObject_INIT() and _PyObject_INIT_VAR() static inline
functions to, respectively, _PyObject_Init() and _PyObject_InitVar(),
and move them to pycore_object.h. Remove their return value:
their return type becomes void.
The _datetime module is now built with the Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro
defined.
Remove an outdated comment on _Py_tracemalloc_config.
The PEP 353, written in 2005, introduced PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T. Python no
longer supports macOS 10.4 and Visual Studio 2010, but requires more
recent macOS and Visual Studio versions. In 2020 with Python 3.10, it
is now safe to use directly "%zu" to format size_t and "%zi" to
format Py_ssize_t.
Module C state is now accessible from C-defined heap type methods (PEP 573).

PyType_HasFeature() now always calls PyType_GetFlags() to hide
implementation details. Previously, it accessed directly the
PyTypeObject.tp_flags member when the limited C API was not used.
Add fast inlined version _PyType_HasFeature() and _PyType_IS_GC()
for object.c and typeobject.c.
The PyObject_NEW() macro becomes an alias to the PyObject_New()
macro, and the PyObject_NEW_VAR() macro becomes an alias to the
PyObject_NewVar() macro, to hide implementation details. They no
longer access directly the PyTypeObject.tp_basicsize member.
Exclude _PyObject_SIZE() and _PyObject_VAR_SIZE() macros from
the limited C API.
Replace PyObject_NEW() with PyObject_New() and replace
PyObject_NEW_VAR() with PyObject_NewVar().
Convert the PyObject_GET_WEAKREFS_LISTPTR() macro to a function to
hide implementation details: the macro accessed directly to the
PyTypeObject.tp_weaklistoffset member.
Add _PyObject_GET_WEAKREFS_LISTPTR() static inline function to the
internal C API.
Py_TRASHCAN_BEGIN_CONDITION and Py_TRASHCAN_END macro no longer
access PyThreadState attributes, but call new private
_PyTrash_begin() and _PyTrash_end() functions which hide
implementation details.
Move the static inline function flavor of Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and
Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() to the internal C API: they access
PyThreadState attributes. The limited C API provides regular
functions which hide implementation details.
In the limited C API, PyObject_INIT() and PyObject_INIT_VAR() are now
defined as aliases to PyObject_Init() and PyObject_InitVar() to make
their implementation opaque. It avoids to leak implementation details
in the limited C API.
Exclude the following functions from the limited C API, move them
from object.h to cpython/object.h:
* _Py_NewReference()
* _Py_ForgetReference()
* _PyTraceMalloc_NewReference()
* _Py_GetRefTotal()
The macro is defined after Py_DECREF() and so is no longer used by
Py_DECREF().
Moving _Py_Dealloc() macro back from cpython/object.h to object.h
would require to move a lot of definitions as well: PyTypeObject and
many related types used by PyTypeObject.
Keep _Py_Dealloc() as an opaque function call to avoid leaking
implementation details in the limited C API (object.h): remove
_Py_Dealloc() macro from cpython/object.h.
_Py_NewReference() becomes a regular opaque function, rather than a
static inline function in the C API (object.h), to better hide
implementation details.
Move _Py_tracemalloc_config from public pymem.h to internal
pycore_pymem.h header.
Make _Py_AddToAllObjects() private.
* Remove _Py_INC_REFTOTAL and _Py_DEC_REFTOTAL macros: modify
directly _Py_RefTotal.
* _Py_ForgetReference() is no longer defined if the Py_TRACE_REFS
macro is not defined.
* Remove _Py_NewReference() implementation from object.c:
unify the two implementations in object.h inline function.
* Fix Py_TRACE_REFS build: _Py_INC_TPALLOCS() macro has been removed.
Rename init_slotdefs() to _PyTypes_InitSlotDefs() and add a return
value of type PyStatus. The function is now called exactly once from
_PyTypes_Init(). Replace calls to init_slotdefs() with an assertion
checking that slotdefs is initialized.
Replace Py_FatalError() with _PyObject_ASSERT_FAILED_MSG() in
object.c and typeobject.c to also dump the involved Python object on
a fatal error. It should ease debug when such fatal error occurs.
If the double linked list is inconsistent, _Py_ForgetReference() no
longer dumps previous and next objects in the fatal error, it now
only dumps the current object. It ensures that the error message
is displayed even if dumping the object does crash Python.
Enhance _Py_ForgetReference() error messages;
_PyObject_ASSERT_FAILED_MSG() logs the "_Py_ForgetReference" function
name.
