This marks dead ThreadHandles as non-joinable earlier in
`PyOS_AfterFork_Child()` before we execute any Python code. The handles
are stored in a global linked list in `_PyRuntimeState` because `fork()`
affects the entire process.
Joining a thread now ensures the underlying OS thread has exited. This is required for safer fork() in multi-threaded processes.

* pycore_pythread.h is now the central place to make sure that
_POSIX_THREADS and _POSIX_SEMAPHORES macros are defined if
available.
* Make sure that pycore_pythread.h is included when _POSIX_THREADS
and _POSIX_SEMAPHORES macros are tested.
* PY_TIMEOUT_MAX is now defined as a constant, since its value
depends on _POSIX_THREADS, instead of being defined as a macro.
* Prevent integer overflow in the preprocessor when computing
PY_TIMEOUT_MAX_VALUE on Windows:
replace "0xFFFFFFFELL * 1000 < LLONG_MAX"
with "0xFFFFFFFELL < LLONG_MAX / 1000".
* Document the change and give hints how to fix affected code.
* Add an exception for PY_TIMEOUT_MAX name to smelly.py
* Add PY_TIMEOUT_MAX to the stable ABI
pthread _PyThread_cond_after() implementation now uses the _PyTime_t
type to handle properly overflow: clamp to the maximum value.
Remove MICROSECONDS_TO_TIMESPEC() function.
Reformat the pthread implementation of PyThread_acquire_lock_timed()
using a mutex and a conditioinal variable.
* Add goto to avoid multiple indentation levels and exit quickly
* Use "while(1)" and make the control flow more obvious.
* PEP 7: Add braces around if blocks.
This parallels _PyRuntimeState.interpreters. Doing this helps make it more clear what part of PyInterpreterState relates to its threads.
https://bugs.python.org/issue46008
Add a private C API for deadlines: add _PyDeadline_Init() and
_PyDeadline_Get() functions.
* Add _PyTime_Add() and _PyTime_Mul() functions which compute t1+t2
and t1*t2 and clamp the result on overflow.
* _PyTime_MulDiv() now uses _PyTime_Add() and _PyTime_Mul().
On Unix, if the sem_clockwait() function is available in the C
library (glibc 2.30 and newer), the threading.Lock.acquire() method
now uses the monotonic clock (time.CLOCK_MONOTONIC) for the timeout,
rather than using the system clock (time.CLOCK_REALTIME), to not be
affected by system clock changes.
configure now checks if the sem_clockwait() function is available.
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed() now clamps the timeout into the
[_PyTime_MIN; _PyTime_MAX] range (_PyTime_t type) if it is too large,
rather than calling Py_FatalError() which aborts the process.
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed() no longer uses
MICROSECONDS_TO_TIMESPEC() to compute sem_timedwait() argument, but
_PyTime_GetSystemClock() and _PyTime_AsTimespec_truncate().
Fix _thread.TIMEOUT_MAX value on Windows: the maximum timeout is
0x7FFFFFFF milliseconds (around 24.9 days), not 0xFFFFFFFF
milliseconds (around 49.7 days).
Set PY_TIMEOUT_MAX to 0x7FFFFFFF milliseconds, rather than 0xFFFFFFFF
milliseconds.
Fix PY_TIMEOUT_MAX overflow test: replace (us >= PY_TIMEOUT_MAX) with
(us > PY_TIMEOUT_MAX).
Add the _PyTime_AsTimespec_clamp() function: similar to
_PyTime_AsTimespec(), but clamp to _PyTime_t min/max and don't raise
an exception.
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed() now uses _PyTime_AsTimespec_clamp() to
remove the Py_UNREACHABLE() code path.
* Add _PyTime_AsTime_t() function.
* Add PY_TIME_T_MIN and PY_TIME_T_MAX constants.
* Replace _PyTime_AsTimeval_noraise() with _PyTime_AsTimeval_clamp().
* Add pytime_divide_round_up() function.
* Fix integer overflow in pytime_divide().
* Add pytime_divmod() function.
Rename _PyInterpreterState_GET_UNSAFE() to _PyInterpreterState_GET()
for consistency with _PyThreadState_GET() and to have a shorter name
(help to fit into 80 columns).
Add also "assert(tstate != NULL);" to the function.
Add a private _at_fork_reinit() method to _thread.Lock,
_thread.RLock, threading.RLock and threading.Condition classes:
reinitialize the lock after fork in the child process; reset the lock
to the unlocked state.
Rename also the private _reset_internal_locks() method of
threading.Event to _at_fork_reinit().
* Add _PyThread_at_fork_reinit() private function. It is excluded
from the limited C API.
* threading.Thread._reset_internal_locks() now calls
_at_fork_reinit() on self._tstate_lock rather than creating a new
Python lock object.
This changeset increases the default size of the stack
for threads on macOS to the size of the stack
of the main thread and reenables the relevant
recursion test.
Fix an undefined behaviour in the pthread implementation of
PyThread_start_new_thread(): add a function wrapper to always return
NULL.
Add pythread_callback struct and pythread_wrapper() to thread_pthread.h.
If Py_BUILD_CORE is defined, the PyThreadState_GET() macro access
_PyRuntime which comes from the internal pycore_state.h header.
Public headers must not require internal headers.
Move PyThreadState_GET() and _PyInterpreterState_GET_UNSAFE() from
Include/pystate.h to Include/internal/pycore_state.h, and rename
PyThreadState_GET() to _PyThreadState_GET() there.
The PyThreadState_GET() macro of pystate.h is now redefined when
pycore_state.h is included, to use the fast _PyThreadState_GET().
Changes:
* Add _PyThreadState_GET() macro
* Replace "PyThreadState_GET()->interp" with
_PyInterpreterState_GET_UNSAFE()
* Replace PyThreadState_GET() with _PyThreadState_GET() in internal C
files (compiled with Py_BUILD_CORE defined), but keep
PyThreadState_GET() in the public header files.
* _testcapimodule.c: replace PyThreadState_GET() with
PyThreadState_Get(); the module is not compiled with Py_BUILD_CORE
defined.
* pycore_state.h now requires Py_BUILD_CORE to be defined.
kB (*kilo* byte) unit means 1000 bytes, whereas KiB ("kibibyte")
means 1024 bytes. KB was misused: replace kB or KB with KiB when
appropriate.
Same change for MB and GB which become MiB and GiB.
Change the output of Tools/iobench/iobench.py.
Round also the size of the documentation from 5.5 MB to 5 MiB.
Fix the pthread+semaphore implementation of
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed() when called with timeout > 0 and
intr_flag=0: recompute the timeout if sem_timedwait() is interrupted
by a signal (EINTR).
See also the PEP 475.
The pthread implementation of PyThread_acquire_lock() now fails with
a fatal error if the timeout is larger than PY_TIMEOUT_MAX, as done
in the Windows implementation.
The check prevents any risk of overflow in PyThread_acquire_lock().
Add also PY_DWORD_MAX constant.
See PEP 539 for details.
Highlights of changes:
- Add Thread Specific Storage (TSS) API
- Document the Thread Local Storage (TLS) API as deprecated
- Update code that used TLS API to use TSS API
* group the (stateful) runtime globals into various topical structs
* consolidate the topical structs under a single top-level _PyRuntimeState struct
* add a check-c-globals.py script that helps identify runtime globals
Other globals are excluded (see globals.txt and check-c-globals.py).
