Remove the global _Py_CheckRecursionLimit variable: it has been
replaced by ceval.recursion_limit of the PyInterpreterState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.
The new API allows to efficiently send values into native generators
and coroutines avoiding use of StopIteration exceptions to signal
returns.
ceval loop now uses this method instead of the old "private"
_PyGen_Send C API. This translates to 1.6x increased performance
of 'await' calls in micro-benchmarks.
Aside from CPython core improvements, this new API will also allow
Cython to generate more efficient code, benefiting high-performance
IO libraries like uvloop.
* Merge gen and frame state variables into one.
* Replace stack pointer with depth in PyFrameObject. Makes code easier to read and saves a word of memory.
If name is NULL, name is now set to co->co_name.
If qualname is NULL, qualname is now set to name.
qualname must not be NULL: it is used to build error messages.
Cleanup also the code: declare variables where they are initialized.
Rename "name" local variables to "varname" to avoid overriding "name"
parameter.
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.
In the experimental isolated subinterpreters build mode,
_PyThreadState_GET() gets the autoTSSkey variable and
_PyThreadState_Swap() sets the autoTSSkey variable.
* Add _PyThreadState_GetTSS()
* _PyRuntimeState_GetThreadState() and _PyThreadState_GET()
return _PyThreadState_GetTSS()
* PyEval_SaveThread() sets the autoTSSkey variable to current Python
thread state rather than NULL.
* eval_frame_handle_pending() doesn't check that
_PyThreadState_Swap() result is NULL.
* _PyThreadState_Swap() gets the current Python thread state with
_PyThreadState_GetTSS() rather than
_PyRuntimeGILState_GetThreadState().
* PyGILState_Ensure() no longer checks _PyEval_ThreadsInitialized()
since it cannot access the current 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.
If _PyCode_InitOpcache() fails in _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault(), use
"goto exit_eval_frame;" rather than "return NULL;" to exit the
function in a consistent state. For example, tstate->frame is now
reset properly.
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.
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.
Add _PyIndex_Check() function to the internal C API: fast inlined
verson of PyIndex_Check().
Add Include/internal/pycore_abstract.h header file.
Replace PyIndex_Check() with _PyIndex_Check() in C files of Objects
and Python subdirectories.
Remove _PyRuntime.getframe hook and remove _PyThreadState_GetFrame
macro which was an alias to _PyRuntime.getframe. They were only
exposed by the internal C API. Remove also PyThreadFrameGetter type.
If a thread different than the main thread schedules a pending call
(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.
* Add _Py_ThreadCanHandlePendingCalls() function.
* SIGNAL_PENDING_CALLS() now only sets eval_breaker to 1 if the
current thread can execute pending calls. Only the main thread can
execute pending calls.
COMPUTE_EVAL_BREAKER() now also checks if the Python thread state
belongs to the main interpreter. Don't break the evaluation loop if
there are pending signals but the Python thread state it belongs to a
subinterpeter.
* Add _Py_IsMainThread() function.
* Add _Py_ThreadCanHandleSignals() function.
If a thread different than the main thread gets a signal, the
bytecode evaluation loop is no longer interrupted at each bytecode
instruction to check for pending signals which cannot be handled.
Only the main thread of the main interpreter can handle signals.
Previously, the bytecode evaluation loop was interrupted at each
instruction until the main thread handles signals.
Changes:
* COMPUTE_EVAL_BREAKER() and SIGNAL_PENDING_SIGNALS() no longer set
eval_breaker to 1 if the current thread cannot handle signals.
* take_gil() now always recomputes eval_breaker.
If Py_AddPendingCall() is called in a subinterpreter, the function is
now scheduled to be called from the subinterpreter, rather than being
called from the main interpreter.
Each subinterpreter now has its own list of scheduled calls.
* Move pending and eval_breaker fields from _PyRuntimeState.ceval
to PyInterpreterState.ceval.
* new_interpreter() now calls _PyEval_InitThreads() to create
pending calls lock.
* Fix Py_AddPendingCall() for subinterpreters. It now calls
_PyThreadState_GET() which works in a subinterpreter if the
caller holds the GIL, and only falls back on
PyGILState_GetThisThreadState() if _PyThreadState_GET()
returns NULL.
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".
