/* Interface for threads.
A module that plans to do a blocking system call (or something else
that lasts a long time and doesn't touch Python data) can allow other
threads to run as follows:
...preparations here...
Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS
...blocking system call here...
Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS
1994-12-30 11:33:50 -04:00
...interpret result here...
The Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS/Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS pair expands to a
{}-surrounded block.
To leave the block in the middle (e.g., with return), you must insert
a line containing RET_SAVE before the return, e.g.
if (...premature_exit...) {
Py_BLOCK_THREADS
PyErr_SetFromErrno(PyExc_IOError);
return NULL;
}
An alternative is:
Py_BLOCK_THREADS
if (...premature_exit...) {
PyErr_SetFromErrno(PyExc_IOError);
return NULL;
}
Py_UNBLOCK_THREADS
For convenience, that the value of 'errno' is restored across
Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS and RET_SAVE.
WARNING: NEVER NEST CALLS TO Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS AND
Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS!!!
The function PyEval_InitThreads() should be called only from
initthread() in "threadmodule.c".
Note that not yet all candidates have been converted to use this
mechanism!

Mass checkin (more to follow for other directories). Introduce truly separate (sub)interpreter objects. For now, these must be used by separate threads, created from C. See Demo/pysvr for an example of how to use this. This also rationalizes Python's initialization and finalization behavior: Py_Initialize() -- initialize the whole interpreter Py_Finalize() -- finalize the whole interpreter tstate = Py_NewInterpreter() -- create a new (sub)interpreter Py_EndInterpreter(tstate) -- delete a new (sub)interpreter There are also new interfaces relating to threads and the interpreter lock, which can be used to create new threads, and sometimes have to be used to manipulate the interpreter lock when creating or deleting sub-interpreters. These are only defined when WITH_THREAD is defined: PyEval_AcquireLock() -- acquire the interpreter lock PyEval_ReleaseLock() -- release the interpreter lock PyEval_AcquireThread(tstate) -- acquire the lock and make the thread current PyEval_ReleaseThread(tstate) -- release the lock and make NULL current Other administrative changes: - The header file bltinmodule.h is deleted. - The init functions for Import, Sys and Builtin are now internal and declared in pythonrun.h. - Py_Setup() and Py_Cleanup() are no longer declared. - The interpreter state and thread state structures are now linked together in a chain (the chain of interpreters is a static variable in pythonrun.c). - Some members of the interpreter and thread structures have new, shorter, more consistent, names. - Added declarations for _PyImport_{Find,Fixup}Extension() to import.h.
