This was added for bpo-40514 (gh-84694) to test out a per-interpreter GIL. However, it has since proven unnecessary to keep the experiment in the repo. (It can be done as a branch in a fork like normal.) So here we are removing:
* the configure option
* the macro
* the code enabled by the macro
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()
* Revert "bpo-46850: Move _PyInterpreterState_SetEvalFrameFunc() to internal C API (GH-32054)"
This reverts commit f877b40e3f.
* Revert "bpo-46850: Move _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault() to internal C API (GH-32052)"
This reverts commit b9a5522dd9.
Move the private undocumented _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault() function to
the internal C API. The function now uses the _PyInterpreterFrame
type which is part of the internal C API.
Remove the private undocumented function
_PyEval_GetCoroutineOriginTrackingDepth() from the C API. Call the
public sys.get_coroutine_origin_tracking_depth() function instead.
Change the internal function
_PyEval_SetCoroutineOriginTrackingDepth():
* Remove the 'tstate' parameter;
* Add return value and raises an exception if depth is negative;
* No longer export the function: call the public
sys.set_coroutine_origin_tracking_depth() function instead.
Uniformize also function declarations in pycore_ceval.h.
Remove the following private undocumented functions from the C API:
* _PyEval_GetAsyncGenFirstiter()
* _PyEval_GetAsyncGenFinalizer()
* _PyEval_SetAsyncGenFirstiter()
* _PyEval_SetAsyncGenFinalizer()
Call the public sys.get_asyncgen_hooks() and sys.set_asyncgen_hooks()
functions instead.
This falls into the category of keep-allocation-and-initialization separate. It also allows us to use _PyEval_InitState() safely in functions that return void.
https://bugs.python.org/issue46008
* Make generator, coroutine and async gen structs all the same size.
* Store interpreter frame in generator (and coroutine). Reduces the number of allocations neeeded for a generator from two to one.
* Make internal APIs that take PyFrameConstructor take a PyFunctionObject instead.
* Add reference to function to frame, borrow references to builtins and globals.
* Add COPY_FREE_VARS instruction to allow specialization of calls to inner functions.
Redefining the PyThreadState_GET() macro in pycore_pystate.h is
useless since it doesn't affect files not including it. Either use
_PyThreadState_GET() directly, or don't use pycore_pystate.h internal
C API. For example, the _testcapi extension don't use the internal C
API, but use the public PyThreadState_Get() function instead.
Replace PyThreadState_Get() with _PyThreadState_GET(). The
_PyThreadState_GET() macro is more efficient than PyThreadState_Get()
and PyThreadState_GET() function calls which call fail with a fatal
Python error.
posixmodule.c and _ctypes extension now include <windows.h> before
pycore header files (like pycore_call.h).
_PyTraceback_Add() now uses _PyErr_Fetch()/_PyErr_Restore() instead
of PyErr_Fetch()/PyErr_Restore().
The _decimal and _xxsubinterpreters extensions are now built with the
Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro defined to get access to the internal C
API.
* Convert "specials" array to InterpreterFrame struct, adding f_lasti, f_state and other non-debug FrameObject fields to it.
* Refactor, calls pushing the call to the interpreter upward toward _PyEval_Vector.
* Compute f_back when on thread stack, only filling in value when frame object outlives stack invocation.
* Move ownership of InterpreterFrame in generator from frame object to generator object.
* Do not create frame objects for Python calls.
* Do not create frame objects for generators.
The types.FunctionType constructor now inherits the current builtins
if the globals dictionary has no "__builtins__" key, rather than
using {"None": None} as builtins: same behavior as eval() and exec()
functions.
Defining a function with "def function(...): ..." in Python is not
affected, globals cannot be overriden with this syntax: it also
inherits the current builtins.
PyFrame_New(), PyEval_EvalCode(), PyEval_EvalCodeEx(),
PyFunction_New() and PyFunction_NewWithQualName() now inherits the
current builtins namespace if the globals dictionary has no
"__builtins__" key.
* Add _PyEval_GetBuiltins() function.
* _PyEval_BuiltinsFromGlobals() now uses _PyEval_GetBuiltins() if
builtins cannot be found in globals.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyEval_BuiltinsFromGlobals().
Pass the current interpreter (interp) rather than the current Python
thread state (tstate) to internal functions which only use the
interpreter.
Modified functions:
* _PyXXX_Fini() and _PyXXX_ClearFreeList() functions
* _PyEval_SignalAsyncExc(), make_pending_calls()
* _PySys_GetObject(), sys_set_object(), sys_set_object_id(), sys_set_object_str()
* should_audit(), set_flags_from_config(), make_flags()
* _PyAtExit_Call()
* init_stdio_encoding()
* etc.
* Refactor _PyFrame_New_NoTrack() and PyFunction_NewWithQualName()
code.
* PyFrame_New() checks for _PyEval_BuiltinsFromGlobals() failure.
* Fix a ref leak in _PyEval_BuiltinsFromGlobals() error path.
* Complete PyFunction_GetModule() documentation: it returns a
borrowed reference and it can return NULL.
* Move _PyEval_BuiltinsFromGlobals() definition to the internal C
API.
* PyFunction_NewWithQualName() uses _Py_IDENTIFIER() API for the
"__name__" string to make it compatible with subinterpreters.
* Further refactoring of PyEval_EvalCode and friends. Break into make-frame, and eval-frame parts.
* Simplify function vector call using new _PyEval_Vector.
* Remove unused internal functions: _PyEval_EvalCodeWithName and _PyEval_EvalCode.
* Don't use legacy function PyEval_EvalCodeEx.
Remove the global _Py_CheckRecursionLimit variable: it has been
replaced by ceval.recursion_limit of the PyInterpreterState
structure.
There is no need to keep the variable for the stable ABI, since
Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() were not usable
in Python 3.8 and older: these macros accessed PyThreadState members,
whereas the PyThreadState structure is opaque in the limited C API.
PyOS_AfterFork_Child() helper functions now return a PyStatus:
PyOS_AfterFork_Child() is now responsible to handle errors.
* Move _PySignal_AfterFork() to the internal C API
* Add #ifdef HAVE_FORK on _PyGILState_Reinit(), _PySignal_AfterFork()
and _PyInterpreterState_DeleteExceptMain().
In the experimental isolated subinterpreters build mode, the GIL is
now per-interpreter.
Move gil from _PyRuntimeState.ceval to PyInterpreterState.ceval.
new_interpreter() always get the config from the main interpreter.
Move recursion_limit member from _PyRuntimeState.ceval to
PyInterpreterState.ceval.
* Py_SetRecursionLimit() now only sets _Py_CheckRecursionLimit
of ceval.c if the current Python thread is part of the main
interpreter.
* Inline _Py_MakeEndRecCheck() into _Py_LeaveRecursiveCall().
* Convert _Py_RecursionLimitLowerWaterMark() macro into a static
inline function.
Add a new separated pyframe.h header file of the PyFrame public C
API: it is included by Python.h.
Add PyFrame_GetLineNumber() to the limited C API.
Replace "struct _frame" with "PyFrameObject" in header files.
PyFrameObject is now defined as struct _frame by pyframe.h which is
included early enough in Python.h.
Fix the signal handler: it now always uses the main interpreter,
rather than trying to get the current Python thread state.
The following function now accepts an interpreter, instead of a
Python thread state:
* _PyEval_SignalReceived()
* _Py_ThreadCanHandleSignals()
* _PyEval_AddPendingCall()
* COMPUTE_EVAL_BREAKER()
* SET_GIL_DROP_REQUEST(), RESET_GIL_DROP_REQUEST()
* SIGNAL_PENDING_CALLS(), UNSIGNAL_PENDING_CALLS()
* SIGNAL_PENDING_SIGNALS(), UNSIGNAL_PENDING_SIGNALS()
* SIGNAL_ASYNC_EXC(), UNSIGNAL_ASYNC_EXC()
Py_AddPendingCall() now uses the main interpreter if it fails to the
current Python thread state.
Convert _PyThreadState_GET() and PyInterpreterState_GET_UNSAFE()
macros to static inline functions.
PyInterpreterState_New() is now responsible to create pending calls,
PyInterpreterState_Delete() now deletes pending calls.
* Rename _PyEval_InitThreads() to _PyEval_InitGIL() and rename
_PyEval_InitGIL() to _PyEval_FiniGIL().
* _PyEval_InitState() and PyEval_FiniState() now create and delete
pending calls. _PyEval_InitState() now returns -1 on memory
allocation failure.
* Add init_interp_create_gil() helper function: code shared by
Py_NewInterpreter() and Py_InitializeFromConfig().
* init_interp_create_gil() now also calls _PyEval_FiniGIL(),
_PyEval_InitGIL() and _PyGILState_Init() in subinterpreters, but
these functions now do nothing when called from a subinterpreter.
bpo-37127, bpo-39984:
* trip_signal() and Py_AddPendingCall() now get the current Python
thread state using PyGILState_GetThisThreadState() rather than
_PyRuntimeState_GetThreadState() to be able to get it even if the
GIL is released.
* _PyEval_SignalReceived() now expects tstate rather than ceval.
* Remove ceval parameter of _PyEval_AddPendingCall(): ceval is now
get from tstate parameter.
* _PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent() now takes tstate rather than
runtime.
* Add ensure_tstate_not_null() helper to pystate.c.
* Add _PyEval_ReleaseLock() function.
* _PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent() now calls
_PyEval_ReleaseLock(tstate) and frees PyThreadState memory after
this call, not before.
* PyGILState_Release(): rename "tcur" variable to "tstate".
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.
PyInterpreterState.eval_frame function now requires a tstate (Python
thread state) parameter.
Add private functions to the C API to get and set the frame
evaluation function:
* Add tstate parameter to _PyFrameEvalFunction function type.
* Add _PyInterpreterState_GetEvalFrameFunc() and
_PyInterpreterState_SetEvalFrameFunc() functions.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault().
PyGILState_Ensure() doesn't call PyEval_InitThreads() anymore when a
new Python thread state is created. The GIL is created by
Py_Initialize() since Python 3.7, it's not needed to call
PyEval_InitThreads() explicitly.
Add an assertion to ensure that the GIL is already created.
* Replace global var Py_VerboseFlag with interp->config.verbose.
* Add _PyErr_NoMemory(tstate) function.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyEval_SetCoroutineOriginTrackingDepth()
and move the function to the internal API.
* Replace _PySys_InitMain(runtime, interp)
with _PySys_InitMain(runtime, tstate).
