Optimize pending calls in multithreaded applications. If a thread different
|
|
than the main thread schedules a pending call (:c:func:`Py_AddPendingCall`),
|
|
the bytecode evaluation loop is no longer interrupted at each bytecode
|
|
instruction to check for pending calls which cannot be executed. Only the
|
|
main thread can execute pending calls.
|
|
|
|
Previously, the bytecode evaluation loop was interrupted at each instruction
|
|
until the main thread executes pending calls.

:mod:`multiprocessing` now supports abstract socket addresses (if abstract
|
|
sockets are supported in the running platform). When creating arbitrary
|
|
addresses (like when default-constructing

:class:`multiprocessing.connection.Listener` objects) abstract sockets are
|
|
preferred to avoid the case when the temporary-file-generated address is too
|
|
large for an AF_UNIX socket address. Patch by Pablo Galindo.

Port python-gdb.py to FreeBSD. python-gdb.py now checks for "take_gil"
|
|
function name to check if a frame tries to acquire the GIL, instead of
|
|
checking for "pthread_cond_timedwait" which is specific to Linux and can be
|
|
a different condition than the GIL.

:c:member:`~PyModuleDef.m_clear` and :c:member:`~PyModuleDef.m_free`

functions of :c:type:`PyModuleDef` are no longer called if the module state

was requested but is not allocated yet. This is the case immediately after

the module is created and before the module is executed

(:c:data:`Py_mod_exec` function). More precisely, these functions are not

|
called if :c:member:`~PyModuleDef.m_size` is greater than 0 and the module

state (as returned by :c:func:`PyModule_GetState`) is ``NULL``.

|

Extension modules without module state (``m_size <= 0``) are not affected.
