The theory is that even if we saw a jump go in the same direction the
last 16 times we got there, we shouldn't be overly confident that it's
still going to go the same way in the future. This PR makes it so that
in the extreme cases, the confidence is multiplied by 0.9 instead of
remaining unchanged. For unpredictable jumps, there is no difference
(still 0.5). For somewhat predictable jumps, we interpolate.
PyTime_t no longer uses an arbitrary unit, it's always a number of
nanoseconds (64-bit signed integer).
* Rename _PyTime_FromNanosecondsObject() to _PyTime_FromLong().
* Rename _PyTime_AsNanosecondsObject() to _PyTime_AsLong().
* Remove pytime_from_nanoseconds().
* Remove pytime_as_nanoseconds().
* Remove _PyTime_FromNanoseconds().
Remove references to the old names _PyTime_MIN
and _PyTime_MAX, now that PyTime_MIN and
PyTime_MAX are public.
Replace also _PyTime_MIN with PyTime_MIN.
* Rename `_testinternalcapi.get_{uop,counter}_optimizer` to `new_*_optimizer`
* Use `_PyUOpName()` instead of` _PyOpcode_uop_name[]`
* Add `target` to executor iterator items -- `list(ex)` now returns `(opcode, oparg, target, operand)` quadruples
* Add executor methods `get_opcode()` and `get_oparg()` to get `vmdata.opcode`, `vmdata.oparg`
* Define a helper for printing uops, and unify various places where they are printed
* Add a hack to summarize_stats.py to fix legacy uop names (e.g. `POP_TOP` -> `_POP_TOP`)
* Define helpers in `test_opt.py` for accessing the set or list of opnames of an executor
This adds `_PyMem_FreeDelayed()` and supporting functions. The
`_PyMem_FreeDelayed()` function frees memory with the same allocator as
`PyMem_Free()`, but after some delay to ensure that concurrent lock-free
readers have finished.
<pycore_time.h> include is no longer needed to get the PyTime_t type
in internal header files. This type is now provided by <Python.h>
include. Add <pycore_time.h> includes to C files instead.
This avoids filling the memory occupied by ob_tid, ob_ref_local, and
ob_ref_shared with debug bytes (e.g., 0xDD) in mimalloc in the
free-threaded build.
This change adds an `eval_breaker` field to `PyThreadState`. The primary
motivation is for performance in free-threaded builds: with thread-local eval
breakers, we can stop a specific thread (e.g., for an async exception) without
interrupting other threads.
The source of truth for the global instrumentation version is stored in the
`instrumentation_version` field in PyInterpreterState. Threads usually read the
version from their local `eval_breaker`, where it continues to be colocated
with the eval breaker bits.
This adds a safe memory reclamation scheme based on FreeBSD's "GUS" and
quiescent state based reclamation (QSBR). The API provides a mechanism
for callers to detect when it is safe to free memory that may be
concurrently accessed by readers.
The GC keeps track of the number of allocations (less deallocations)
since the last GC. This buffers the count in thread-local state and uses
atomic operations to modify the per-interpreter count. The thread-local
buffering avoids contention on shared state.
A consequence is that the GC scheduling is not as precise, so
"test_sneaky_frame_object" is skipped because it requires that the GC be
run exactly after allocating a frame object.
Makes _PyType_Lookup thread safe, including:
Thread safety of the underlying cache.
Make mutation of mro and type members thread safe
Also _PyType_GetMRO and _PyType_GetBases are currently returning borrowed references which aren't safe.
This is a temporary fix to unblock embedders that do not call Py_Main().
_PyInterpreterState_IsRunningMain() will always return true for the main interpreter, even in corner cases where it technically should not. The (future) full solution will do the right thing in those corner cases.
For the most part, these changes make is substantially easier to backport subinterpreter-related code to 3.12, especially the related modules (e.g. _xxsubinterpreters). The main motivation is to support releasing a PyPI package with the 3.13 capabilities compiled for 3.12.
A lot of the changes here involve either hiding details behind macros/functions or splitting up some files.
