Makes sys.settrace, sys.setprofile, and monitoring generally thread-safe.
Mostly uses a stop-the-world approach and synchronization around the code object's _co_instrumentation_version. There may be a little bit of extra synchronization around the monitoring data that's required to be TSAN clean.
Guido pointed out to me that some details about the per-interpreter state for the builtin types aren't especially clear. I'm addressing that by:
* adding a comment explaining that state
* adding some asserts to point out the relationship between each index and the interp/global runtime state
This change gives a significant speedup, as the METH_FASTCALL calling
convention is now used. The following bytes and bytearray methods are adapted:
- count()
- find()
- index()
- rfind()
- rindex()

This is similar to the situation with threading._DummyThread. The methods (incl. __del__()) of interpreters.Interpreter objects must be careful with interpreters not created by interpreters.create(). The simplest thing to start with is to disable any method that modifies or runs in the interpreter. As part of this, the runtime keeps track of where an interpreter was created. We also handle interpreter "refcounts" properly.
The free-threaded build does not currently support the combination of
single-phase init modules and non-isolated subinterpreters. Ensure that
`check_multi_interp_extensions` is always `True` for subinterpreters in
the free-threaded build so that importing these modules raises an
`ImportError`.
The `__has_feature(thread_sanitizer)` is a Clang-ism. Although new
versions of GCC implement `__has_feature`, the `defined(__has_feature)`
check still fails on GCC so we don't use that code path.
This keeps track of the per-thread total reference count operations in
PyThreadState in the free-threaded builds. The count is merged into the
interpreter's total when the thread exits.
Most mutable data is protected by a striped lock that is keyed on the
referenced object's address. The weakref's hash is protected using the
weakref's per-object lock.
Note that this only affects free-threaded builds. Apart from some minor
refactoring, the added code is all either gated by `ifdef`s or is a no-op
(e.g. `Py_BEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION`).
Introduce a unified 16-bit backoff counter type (``_Py_BackoffCounter``),
shared between the Tier 1 adaptive specializer and the Tier 2 optimizer. The
API used for adaptive specialization counters is changed but the behavior is
(supposed to be) identical.
The behavior of the Tier 2 counters is changed:
- There are no longer dynamic thresholds (we never varied these).
- All counters now use the same exponential backoff.
- The counter for ``JUMP_BACKWARD`` starts counting down from 16.
- The ``temperature`` in side exits starts counting down from 64.
This merges all `_CHECK_STACK_SPACE` uops in a trace into a single `_CHECK_STACK_SPACE_OPERAND` uop that checks whether there is enough stack space for all calls included in the entire trace.
These helpers make it easier to customize and inspect the config used to initialize interpreters. This is especially valuable in our tests. I found inspiration from the PyConfig API for the PyInterpreterConfig dict conversion stuff. As part of this PR I've also added a bunch of tests.
Mark the swap operations as critical sections.
Add an internal Py_BEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION_MUT API that takes a PyMutex
pointer instead of a PyObject pointer.
Change old space bit of young objects from 0 to gcstate->visited_space.
This ensures that any object created *and* collected during cycle GC has the bit set correctly.
Use support.infinite_recursion() in test_recursive_pickle() of
test_functools to prevent a stack overflow on "ARM64 Windows
Non-Debug" buildbot.
Lower Py_C_RECURSION_LIMIT to 1,000 frames on Windows ARM64.
Changes to the function version cache:
- In addition to the function object, also store the code object,
and allow the latter to be retrieved even if the function has been evicted.
- Stop assigning new function versions after a critical attribute (e.g. `__code__`)
has been modified; the version is permanently reset to zero in this case.
- Changes to `__annotations__` are no longer considered critical. (This fixes gh-109998.)
Changes to the Tier 2 optimization machinery:
- If we cannot map a function version to a function, but it is still mapped to a code object,
we continue projecting the trace.
The operand of the `_PUSH_FRAME` and `_POP_FRAME` opcodes can be either NULL,
a function object, or a code object with the lowest bit set.
This allows us to trace through code that calls an ephemeral function,
i.e., a function that may not be alive when we are constructing the executor,
e.g. a generator expression or certain nested functions.
We will lose globals removal inside such functions,
but we can still do other peephole operations
(and even possibly [call inlining](https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/116290),
if we decide to do it), which only need the code object.
As before, if we cannot retrieve the code object from the cache, we stop projecting.
Split `_PyThreadState_DeleteExcept` into two functions:
- `_PyThreadState_RemoveExcept` removes all thread states other than one
passed as an argument. It returns the removed thread states as a
linked list.
- `_PyThreadState_DeleteList` deletes those dead thread states. It may
call destructors, so we want to "start the world" before calling
`_PyThreadState_DeleteList` to avoid potential deadlocks.
I added it quite a while ago as a strategy for managing interpreter lifetimes relative to the PEP 554 (now 734) implementation. Relatively recently I refactored that implementation to no longer rely on InterpreterID objects. Thus now I'm removing it.
Add Py_GetConstant() and Py_GetConstantBorrowed() functions.
In the limited C API version 3.13, getting Py_None, Py_False,
Py_True, Py_Ellipsis and Py_NotImplemented singletons is now
implemented as function calls at the stable ABI level to hide
implementation details. Getting these constants still return borrowed
references.
Add _testlimitedcapi/object.c and test_capi/test_object.py to test
Py_GetConstant() and Py_GetConstantBorrowed() functions.
Mostly we unify the two different implementations of the conversion code (from PyObject * to int64_t. We also drop the PyArg_ParseTuple()-style converter function, as well as rename and move PyInterpreterID_LookUp().
Somehow we ended up with two separate counter variables tracking "the next function version".
Most likely this was a historical accident where an old branch was updated incorrectly.
This PR merges the two counters into a single one: `interp->func_state.next_version`.
Defining a type twice is a C11 feature and so makes the C API
incompatible with C99. Fix the issue by only defining the type once.

There is a race between when `Thread._tstate_lock` is released[^1] in `Thread._wait_for_tstate_lock()`
and when `Thread._stop()` asserts[^2] that it is unlocked. Consider the following execution
involving threads A, B, and C:
1. A starts.
2. B joins A, blocking on its `_tstate_lock`.
3. C joins A, blocking on its `_tstate_lock`.
4. A finishes and releases its `_tstate_lock`.
5. B acquires A's `_tstate_lock` in `_wait_for_tstate_lock()`, releases it, but is swapped
out before calling `_stop()`.
6. C is scheduled, acquires A's `_tstate_lock` in `_wait_for_tstate_lock()` but is swapped
out before releasing it.
7. B is scheduled, calls `_stop()`, which asserts that A's `_tstate_lock` is not held.
However, C holds it, so the assertion fails.
The race can be reproduced[^3] by inserting sleeps at the appropriate points in
the threading code. To do so, run the `repro_join_race.py` from the linked repo.
There are two main parts to this PR:
1. `_tstate_lock` is replaced with an event that is attached to `PyThreadState`.
The event is set by the runtime prior to the thread being cleared (in the same
place that `_tstate_lock` was released). `Thread.join()` blocks waiting for the
event to be set.
2. `_PyInterpreterState_WaitForThreads()` provides the ability to wait for all
non-daemon threads to exit. To do so, an `is_daemon` predicate was added to
`PyThreadState`. This field is set each time a thread is created. `threading._shutdown()`
now calls into `_PyInterpreterState_WaitForThreads()` instead of waiting on
`_tstate_lock`s.

In free-threaded builds, running with `PYTHON_GIL=0` will now disable the
GIL. Follow-up issues track work to re-enable the GIL when loading an
incompatible extension, and to disable the GIL by default.
In order to support re-enabling the GIL at runtime, all GIL-related data
structures are initialized as usual, and disabling the GIL simply sets a flag
that causes `take_gil()` and `drop_gil()` to return early.
Revert "gh-115398: Increment PyExpat_CAPI_MAGIC for SetReparseDeferralEnabled addition (GH-116301)"
This reverts part of commit eda2963378. Why? this comment buried in an earlier code review explains:
I checked again how that value is used in practice, it's here:
0c80da4c14/Modules/_elementtree.c (L4363-L4372)
Based on that code my understanding is that loading bigger structs from the future is considered okay unless `PyExpat_CAPI_MAGIC` differs, which implies that (1) magic needs to stay the same to support loading the future from the past and (2) that `PyExpat_CAPI_MAGIC` should only ever change for changes that do not increase size (but keep it constant).
To summarize, that supports your argument.
I checked branches 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 now and they all have the same comparison code there so reverting that magic string bump will support seamless backporting.
This implements the delayed reuse of mimalloc pages that contain Python
objects in the free-threaded build.
Allocations of the same size class are grouped in data structures called
pages. These are different from operating system pages. For thread-safety, we
want to ensure that memory used to store PyObjects remains valid as long as
there may be concurrent lock-free readers; we want to delay using it for
other size classes, in other heaps, or returning it to the operating system.
When a mimalloc page becomes empty, instead of immediately freeing it, we tag
it with a QSBR goal and insert it into a per-thread state linked list of
pages to be freed. When mimalloc needs a fresh page, we process the queue and
free any still empty pages that are now deemed safe to be freed. Pages
waiting to be freed are still available for allocations of the same size
class and allocating from a page prevent it from being freed. There is
additional logic to handle abandoned pages when threads exit.
This sets `MI_DEBUG` to `2` in debug builds to enable `mi_assert_internal()`
calls. Expensive internal assertions are not enabled.
This also disables an assertion in free-threaded builds that would be
triggered by the free-threaded GC because we traverse heaps that are not
owned by the current thread.
* Increment PyExpat_CAPI_MAGIC due to SetReparseDeferralEnabled addition.
This is a followup to git commit
6a95676bb5 from Github PR #115623.
* RESTify news API list.
Make `_thread.ThreadHandle` thread-safe in free-threaded builds
We protect the mutable state of `ThreadHandle` using a `_PyOnceFlag`.
Concurrent operations (i.e. `join` or `detach`) on `ThreadHandle` block
until it is their turn to execute or an earlier operation succeeds.
Once an operation has been applied successfully all future operations
complete immediately.
The `join()` method is now idempotent. It may be called multiple times
but the underlying OS thread will only be joined once. After `join()`
succeeds, any future calls to `join()` will succeed immediately.
The internal thread handle `detach()` method has been removed.
Allow controlling Expat >=2.6.0 reparse deferral (CVE-2023-52425) by adding five new methods:
- `xml.etree.ElementTree.XMLParser.flush`
- `xml.etree.ElementTree.XMLPullParser.flush`
- `xml.parsers.expat.xmlparser.GetReparseDeferralEnabled`
- `xml.parsers.expat.xmlparser.SetReparseDeferralEnabled`
- `xml.sax.expatreader.ExpatParser.flush`
Based on the "flush" idea from https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/115138#issuecomment-1932444270 .
### Notes
- Please treat as a security fix related to CVE-2023-52425.
Includes code suggested-by: Snild Dolkow <snild@sony.com>
and by core dev Serhiy Storchaka.
This changes the `sym_set_...()` functions to return a `bool` which is `false`
when the symbol is `bottom` after the operation.
All calls to such functions now check this result and go to `hit_bottom`,
a special error label that prints a different message and then reports
that it wasn't able to optimize the trace. No executor will be produced
in this case.
This undoes the *temporary* default disabling of the T2 optimizer pass in gh-115860.
- Add a new test that reproduces Brandt's example from gh-115859; it indeed crashes before gh-116028 with PYTHONUOPSOPTIMIZE=1
- Re-enable the optimizer pass in T2, stop checking PYTHONUOPSOPTIMIZE
- Rename the env var to disable T2 entirely to PYTHON_UOPS_OPTIMIZE (must be explicitly set to 0 to disable)
- Fix skipIf conditions on tests in test_opt.py accordingly
- Export sym_is_bottom() (for debugging)
- Fix various things in the `_BINARY_OP_` specializations in the abstract interpreter:
- DECREF(temp)
- out-of-space check after sym_new_const()
- add sym_matches_type() checks, so even if we somehow reach a binary op with symbolic constants of the wrong type on the stack we won't trigger the type assert
- Any `sym_set_...` call that attempts to set conflicting information
cause the symbol to become `bottom` (contradiction).
- All `sym_is...` and similar calls return false or NULL for `bottom`.
- Everything's tested.
- The tests still pass with `PYTHONUOPSOPTIMIZE=1`.
* Rename _Py_UOpsAbstractInterpContext to _Py_UOpsContext and _Py_UOpsSymType to _Py_UopsSymbol.
* #define shortened form of _Py_uop_... names for improved readability.
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.
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.
Keep the old private _PyCFunctionFastWithKeywords name (Python 3.7)
as an alias to the new public name PyCFunctionFastWithKeywords
(Python 3.13a4).
_PyCFunctionWithKeywords doesn't exist in Python 3.13a3, whereas
_PyCFunctionFastWithKeywords was removed in Python 3.13a4.
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 ID of the owning thread (`rlock_owner`) may be accessed by
multiple threads without holding the underlying lock; relaxed
atomics are used in place of the previous loads/stores.
The number of times that the lock has been acquired (`rlock_count`)
is only ever accessed by the thread that holds the lock; we do not
need to use atomics to access it.
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 adds `Py_XBEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION` and
`Py_XEND_CRITICAL_SECTION`, which accept a possibly NULL object as an
argument. If the argument is NULL, then nothing is locked or unlocked.
Otherwise, they behave like `Py_BEGIN/END_CRITICAL_SECTION`.
Use critical sections to make deque methods that operate on mutable
state thread-safe when the GIL is disabled. This is mostly accomplished
by using the @critical_section Argument Clinic directive, though there
are a few places where this was not possible and critical sections had
to be manually acquired/released.
Add PythonFinalizationError exception. This exception derived from
RuntimeError is raised when an operation is blocked during the Python
finalization.
The following functions now raise PythonFinalizationError, instead of
RuntimeError:
* _thread.start_new_thread()
* subprocess.Popen
* os.fork()
* os.fork1()
* os.forkpty()
Morever, _winapi.Overlapped finalizer now logs an unraisable
PythonFinalizationError, instead of an unraisable RuntimeError.
The free-threaded GC uses mimallocs segment thread IDs to restore
the overwritten `ob_tid` thread ids in PyObjects. For that reason, it's
important that PyObjects and mimalloc use the same identifiers.
These are intended to be used in places where atomics are required in
free-threaded builds but not in the default build. We don't want to
introduce the potential performance overhead of an atomic operation in the
default build.
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.
We add _winapi.BatchedWaitForMultipleObjects to wait for larger numbers of handles.
This is an internal module, hence undocumented, and should be used with caution.
Check the docstring for info before using BatchedWaitForMultipleObjects.
Biased reference counting maintains two refcount fields in each object:
`ob_ref_local` and `ob_ref_shared`. The true refcount is the sum of these two
fields. In some cases, when refcounting operations are split across threads,
the ob_ref_shared field can be negative (although the total refcount must be
at least zero). In this case, the thread that decremented the refcount
requests that the owning thread give up ownership and merge the refcount
fields.
Starts adding thread safety to dict objects.
Use @critical_section for APIs which are exposed via argument clinic and don't directly correlate with a public C API which needs to acquire the lock
Use a _lock_held suffix for keeping changes to complicated functions simple and just wrapping them with a critical section
Acquire and release the lock in an existing function where it won't be overly disruptive to the existing logic
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.
The `PyDict_SetDefaultRef` function is similar to `PyDict_SetDefault`,
but returns a strong reference through the optional `**result` pointer
instead of a borrowed reference.

Add optional 'filter' parameter to iterdump() that allows a "LIKE"
pattern for filtering database objects to dump.

The new `PyList_GetItemRef` is similar to `PyList_GetItem`, but returns
a strong reference instead of a borrowed reference. Additionally, if the
passed "list" object is not a list, the function sets a `TypeError`
instead of calling `PyErr_BadInternalCall()`.
* gh-112529: Remove PyGC_Head from object pre-header in free-threaded build
This avoids allocating space for PyGC_Head in the free-threaded build.
The GC implementation for free-threaded CPython does not use the
PyGC_Head structure.
* The trashcan mechanism uses the `ob_tid` field instead of `_gc_prev`
in the free-threaded build.
* The GDB libpython.py file now determines the offset of the managed
dict field based on whether the running process is a free-threaded
build. Those are identified by the `ob_ref_local` field in PyObject.
* Fixes `_PySys_GetSizeOf()` which incorrectly incorrectly included the
size of `PyGC_Head` in the size of static `PyTypeObject`.
Add an option (--enable-experimental-jit for configure-based builds
or --experimental-jit for PCbuild-based ones) to build an
*experimental* just-in-time compiler, based on copy-and-patch (https://fredrikbk.com/publications/copy-and-patch.pdf).
See Tools/jit/README.md for more information on how to install the required build-time tooling.
For interpreters that share state with the main interpreter, this points
to the same static memory structure. For interpreters with their own
obmalloc state, it is heap allocated. Add free_obmalloc_arenas() which
will free the obmalloc arenas and radix tree structures for interpreters
with their own obmalloc state.

* gh-112529: Implement GC for free-threaded builds
This implements a mark and sweep GC for the free-threaded builds of
CPython. The implementation relies on mimalloc to find GC tracked
objects (i.e., "containers").
* Bring in a subset of biased reference counting:
https://github.com/colesbury/nogil/commit/b6b12a9a94e
The NoGIL branch has functions for attempting to do an incref on an object which may or may not be in flight. This just brings those functions over so that they will be usable from in the dict implementation to get items w/o holding a lock.
There's a handful of small simple modifications:
Adding inline to the force inline functions to avoid a warning, and switching from _Py_ALWAYS_INLINE to Py_ALWAYS_INLINE as that's available
Remove _Py_REF_LOCAL_SHIFT as it doesn't exist yet (and is currently 0 in the 3.12 nogil branch anyway)
ob_ref_shared is currently Py_ssize_t and not uint32_t, so use that
_PY_LIKELY doesn't exist, so drop it
_Py_ThreadLocal becomes _Py_IsOwnedByCurrentThread
Add '_PyInterpreterState_GET()' to _Py_IncRefTotal calls.

The `--disable-gil` builds occasionally need to pause all but one thread. Some
examples include:
* Cyclic garbage collection, where this is often called a "stop the world event"
* Before calling `fork()`, to ensure a consistent state for internal data structures
* During interpreter shutdown, to ensure that daemon threads aren't accessing Python objects
This adds the following functions to implement global and per-interpreter pauses:
* `_PyEval_StopTheWorldAll()` and `_PyEval_StartTheWorldAll()` (for the global runtime)
* `_PyEval_StopTheWorld()` and `_PyEval_StartTheWorld()` (per-interpreter)
(The function names may change.)
These functions are no-ops outside of the `--disable-gil` build.
This adds support for visiting abandoned pages in mimalloc and improves
the performance of the page visiting code. Abandoned pages contain
memory blocks from threads that have exited. At some point, they may be
later reclaimed by other threads. We still need to visit those pages in
the free-threaded GC because they contain live objects.
This also reduces the overhead of visiting mimalloc pages:
* Special cases for full, empty, and pages containing only a single
block.
* Fix free_map to use one bit instead of one byte per block.
* Use fast integer division by a constant algorithm when computing
block offset from block size and index.
* gh-112529: Use GC heaps for GC allocations in free-threaded builds
The free-threaded build's garbage collector implementation will need to
find GC objects by traversing mimalloc heaps. This hooks up the
allocation calls with the correct heaps by using a thread-local
"current_obj_heap" variable.
* Refactor out setting heap based on type
* gh-112529: Track if debug allocator is used as underlying allocator
The GC implementation for free-threaded builds will need to accurately
detect if the debug allocator is used because it affects the offset of
the Python object from the beginning of the memory allocation. The
current implementation of `_PyMem_DebugEnabled` only considers if the
debug allocator is the outer-most allocator; it doesn't handle the case
of "hooks" like tracemalloc being used on top of the debug allocator.
This change enables more accurate detection of the debug allocator by
tracking when debug hooks are enabled.
* Simplify _PyMem_DebugEnabled
gh-113750: Fix object resurrection on free-threaded builds
This avoids the undesired re-initializing of fields like `ob_gc_bits`,
`ob_mutex`, and `ob_tid` when an object is resurrected due to its
finalizer being called.
This change has no effect on the default (with GIL) build.
This splits part of Modules/gcmodule.c of into Python/gc.c, which
now contains the core garbage collection implementation. The Python
module remain in the Modules/gcmodule.c file.
* gh-112532: Tag mimalloc heaps and pages
Mimalloc pages are data structures that contain contiguous allocations
of the same block size. Note that they are distinct from operating
system pages. Mimalloc pages are contained in segments.
When a thread exits, it abandons any segments and contained pages that
have live allocations. These segments and pages may be later reclaimed
by another thread. To support GC and certain thread-safety guarantees in
free-threaded builds, we want pages to only be reclaimed by the
corresponding heap in the claimant thread. For example, we want pages
containing GC objects to only be claimed by GC heaps.
This allows heaps and pages to be tagged with an integer tag that is
used to ensure that abandoned pages are only claimed by heaps with the
same tag. Heaps can be initialized with a tag (0-15); any page allocated
by that heap copies the corresponding tag.
* Fix conversion warning
* gh-112532: Isolate abandoned segments by interpreter
Mimalloc segments are data structures that contain memory allocations along
with metadata. Each segment is "owned" by a thread. When a thread exits,
it abandons its segments to a global pool to be later reclaimed by other
threads. This changes the pool to be per-interpreter instead of process-wide.
This will be important for when we use mimalloc to find GC objects in the
`--disable-gil` builds. We want heaps to only store Python objects from a
single interpreter. Absent this change, the abandoning and reclaiming process
could break this isolation.
* Add missing '&_mi_abandoned_default' to 'tld_empty'
* gh-112532: Use separate mimalloc heaps for GC objects
In `--disable-gil` builds, we now use four separate heaps in
anticipation of using mimalloc to find GC objects when the GIL is
disabled. To support this, we also make a few changes to mimalloc:
* `mi_heap_t` and `mi_tld_t` initialization is split from allocation.
This allows us to have a `mi_tld_t` per-`PyThreadState`, which is
important to keep interpreter isolation, since the same OS thread may
run in multiple interpreters (using different PyThreadStates.)
* Heap abandoning (mi_heap_collect_ex) can now be called from a
different thread than the one that created the heap. This is necessary
because we may clear and delete the containing PyThreadStates from a
different thread during finalization and after fork().
* Use enum instead of defines and guard mimalloc includes.
* The enum typedef will be convenient for future PRs that use the type.
* Guarding the mimalloc includes allows us to unconditionally include
pycore_mimalloc.h from other header files that rely on things like
`struct _mimalloc_thread_state`.
* Only define _mimalloc_thread_state in Py_GIL_DISABLED builds
We need the TracebackException of uncaught exceptions for a single purpose: the error display. Thus we only need to pass the formatted error display between interpreters. Passing a pickled TracebackException is overkill.
The `PyThreadState_Clear()` function must only be called with the GIL
held and must be called from the same interpreter as the passed in
thread state. Otherwise, any Python objects on the thread state may be
destroyed using the wrong interpreter, leading to memory corruption.
This is also important for `Py_GIL_DISABLED` builds because free lists
will be associated with PyThreadStates and cleared in
`PyThreadState_Clear()`.
This fixes two places that called `PyThreadState_Clear()` from the wrong
interpreter and adds an assertion to `PyThreadState_Clear()`.
When an exception is uncaught in Interpreter.exec_sync(), it helps to show that exception's error display if uncaught in the calling interpreter. We do so here by generating a TracebackException in the subinterpreter and passing it between interpreters using pickle.
* gh-110820: Make sure processor specific defines are correct for Universal 2 build on macOS
A number of processor specific defines are different for x86-64 and
arm64, and need to be adjusted in pymacconfig.h.
* remove debug stuf
This replaces some usages of PyThread_type_lock with PyMutex, which does not require memory allocation to initialize.
This simplifies some of the runtime initialization and is also one step towards avoiding changing the default raw memory allocator during initialize/finalization, which can be non-thread-safe in some circumstances.
Every PyThreadState instance is now actually a _PyThreadStateImpl.
It is safe to cast from `PyThreadState*` to `_PyThreadStateImpl*` and back.
The _PyThreadStateImpl will contain fields that we do not want to expose
in the public C API.
This updates `dtoa.c` to avoid using the Bigint free-list in --disable-gil builds and
to pre-computes the needed powers of 5 during interpreter initialization.
* gh-111962: Make dtoa thread-safe in `--disable-gil` builds.
This avoids using the Bigint free-list in `--disable-gil` builds
and pre-computes the needed powers of 5 during interpreter initialization.
* Fix size of cached powers of 5 array.
We need the powers of 5 up to 5**512 because we only jump straight to
underflow when the exponent is less than -512 (or larger than 308).
* Rename Py_NOGIL to Py_GIL_DISABLED
* Changes from review
* Fix assertion placement
* Implement _Py_HashPointerRaw() as a static inline function.
* Add Py_HashPointer() tests to test_capi.test_hash.
* Keep _Py_HashPointer() function as an alias to Py_HashPointer().
Change the declaration of the keywords parameter in functions
PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords() and PyArg_VaParseTupleAndKeywords() from `char **`
to `char * const *` in C and `const char * const *` in C++.
It makes these functions compatible with argument of type `const char * const *`,
`const char **` or `char * const *` in C++ and `char * const *` in C
without explicit type cast.

Use a fraction internally in the _PyTime API to reduce the risk of
integer overflow: simplify the fraction using Greatest Common
Divisor (GCD). The fraction API is used by time functions:
perf_counter(), monotonic() and process_time().
For example, QueryPerformanceFrequency() usually returns 10 MHz on
Windows 10 and newer. The fraction SEC_TO_NS / frequency =
1_000_000_000 / 10_000_000 can be simplified to 100 / 1.
* Add _PyTimeFraction type.
* Add functions:
* _PyTimeFraction_Set()
* _PyTimeFraction_Mul()
* _PyTimeFraction_Resolution()
* No longer check "numer * denom <= _PyTime_MAX" in
_PyTimeFraction_Set(). _PyTimeFraction_Mul() uses _PyTime_Mul()
which handles integer overflow.
* Move _PyRuntimeState.time to _posixstate.ticks_per_second and
time_module_state.ticks_per_second.
* Add time_module_state.clocks_per_second.
* Rename _PyTime_GetClockWithInfo() to py_clock().
* Rename _PyTime_GetProcessTimeWithInfo() to py_process_time().
* Add process_time_times() helper function, called by
py_process_time().
* os.times() is now always built: no longer rely on HAVE_TIMES.
If Py_NOGIL is defined and Py_SET_REFCNT() is called with a reference
count larger than UINT32_MAX, make the object immortal.
Set _Py_IMMORTAL_REFCNT constant type to Py_ssize_t to fix the
following compiler warning:
Include/internal/pycore_global_objects_fini_generated.h:14:24:
warning: comparison of integers of different signs: 'Py_ssize_t'
(aka 'long') and 'unsigned int' [-Wsign-compare]

This makes the Tier 2 interpreter a little faster.
I calculated by about 3%,
though I hesitate to claim an exact number.
This starts by doubling the trace size limit (to 512),
making it more likely that loops fit in a trace.
The rest of the approach is to only load
`oparg` and `operand` in cases that use them.
The code generator know when these are used.
For `oparg`, it will conditionally emit
```
oparg = CURRENT_OPARG();
```
at the top of the case block.
(The `oparg` variable may be referenced multiple times
by the instructions code block, so it must be in a variable.)
For `operand`, it will use `CURRENT_OPERAND()` directly
instead of referencing the `operand` variable,
which no longer exists.
(There is only one place where this will be used.)
This uses the new mechanism whereby certain uops
are replaced by others during translation,
using the `_PyUop_Replacements` table.
We further special-case the `_FOR_ITER_TIER_TWO` uop
to update the deoptimization target to point
just past the corresponding `END_FOR` opcode.
Two tiny code cleanups are also part of this PR.
- Double max trace size to 256
- Add a dependency on executor_cases.c.h for ceval.o
- Mark `_SPECIALIZE_UNPACK_SEQUENCE` as `TIER_ONE_ONLY`
- Add debug output back showing the optimized trace
- Bunch of cleanups to Tools/cases_generator/
* Run again test_ast_recursion_limit() on WASI platform.
* Add _testinternalcapi.get_c_recursion_remaining().
* Fix test_ast and test_sys_settrace: test_ast_recursion_limit() and
test_trace_unpack_long_sequence() now adjust the maximum recursion
depth depending on the the remaining C recursion.
* Replace jumps with deopts in tier 2
* Fewer special cases of uop names
* Add target field to uop IR
* Remove more redundant SET_IP and _CHECK_VALIDITY micro-ops
* Extend whitelist of non-escaping API functions.
_PyDict_Pop_KnownHash(): remove the default value and the return type
becomes an int.

* Split list_extend() into two sub-functions: list_extend_fast() and
list_extend_iter().
* list_inplace_concat() no longer has to call Py_DECREF() on the
list_extend() result, since list_extend() now returns an int.
This adds a macro `Py_CAN_START_THREADS` that corresponds to the Python
function `test.support.threading_helper.can_start_thread()`. WASI and
some Emscripten builds do not have a working pthread implementation.
This macro is used to guard the critical sections C API tests that
require a working threads implementation.
