Fix the threading.Thread class at fork: do nothing if the thread is
already stopped (ex: fork called at Python exit). Previously, an
error was logged in the child process.
* Rewrite test_thread.test_forkinthread() to use
support.wait_process() and wait for the child process in the main
thread, not in the spawned thread.
* test_threading now uses support.wait_process() and checks the child
process exit code to detect crashes.
Remove daemon threads from :mod:`concurrent.futures` by adding
an internal `threading._register_atexit()`, which calls registered functions
prior to joining all non-daemon threads. This allows for compatibility
with subinterpreters, which don't support daemon threads.
PyThreadState.frame is a borrowed reference, not a strong reference:
PyThreadState_Clear() must not call Py_CLEAR(tstate->frame).
Remove test_threading.test_warnings_at_exit(): we cannot warranty
that the Python thread state of daemon threads is cleared in a
reliable way during Python shutdown.
Clear the frames of daemon threads earlier during the Python shutdown to
call objects destructors. So "unclosed file" resource warnings are now
emitted for daemon threads in a more reliable way.
Cleanup _PyThreadState_DeleteExcept() code: rename "garbage" to
"list".
Replace hardcoded timeout constants in tests with SHORT_TIMEOUT of
test.support, so it's easier to ajdust this timeout for all tests at
once.
SHORT_TIMEOUT is 30 seconds by default, but it can be longer
depending on --timeout command line option.
The change makes almost all timeouts longer, except
test_reap_children() of test_support which is made 2x shorter:
SHORT_TIMEOUT should be enough. If this test starts to fail,
LONG_TIMEOUT should be used instead.
Uniformize also "from test import support" import in some test files.
This changeset increases the default size of the stack
for threads on macOS to the size of the stack
of the main thread and reenables the relevant
recursion test.
In a subinterpreter, spawning a daemon thread now raises an
exception. Daemon threads were never supported in subinterpreters.
Previously, the subinterpreter finalization crashed with a Pyton
fatal error if a daemon thread was still running.
* Add _thread._is_main_interpreter()
* threading.Thread.start() now raises RuntimeError if the thread is a
daemon thread and the method is called from a subinterpreter.
* The _thread module now uses Argument Clinic for the new function.
* Use textwrap.dedent() in test_threading.SubinterpThreadingTests
Fix a race condition at Python shutdown when waiting for threads.
Wait until the Python thread state of all non-daemon threads get
deleted (join all non-daemon threads), rather than just wait until
Python threads complete.
* Add threading._shutdown_locks: set of Thread._tstate_lock locks
of non-daemon threads used by _shutdown() to wait until all Python
thread states get deleted. See Thread._set_tstate_lock().
* Add also threading._shutdown_locks_lock to protect access to
threading._shutdown_locks.
* Add test_finalization_shutdown() test.
Add a new threading.excepthook() function which handles uncaught
Thread.run() exception. It can be overridden to control how uncaught
exceptions are handled.
threading.ExceptHookArgs is not documented on purpose: it should not
be used directly.
* threading.excepthook() and threading.ExceptHookArgs.
* Add _PyErr_Display(): similar to PyErr_Display(), but accept a
'file' parameter.
* Add _thread._excepthook(): C implementation of the exception hook
calling _PyErr_Display().
* Add _thread._ExceptHookArgs: structseq type.
* Add threading._invoke_excepthook_wrapper() which handles the gory
details to ensure that everything remains alive during Python
shutdown.
* Add unit tests.
kB (*kilo* byte) unit means 1000 bytes, whereas KiB ("kibibyte")
means 1024 bytes. KB was misused: replace kB or KB with KiB when
appropriate.
Same change for MB and GB which become MiB and GiB.
Change the output of Tools/iobench/iobench.py.
Round also the size of the documentation from 5.5 MB to 5 MiB.
test_is_alive_after_fork() now joins directly the thread to avoid the
following warning added by bpo-30357:
Warning -- threading_cleanup() failed to cleanup 0 threads
after 2 sec (count: 0, dangling: 21)
Use also a different exit code to catch generic exit code 1.
* bpo-6532: Make the thread id an unsigned integer.
From C API side the type of results of PyThread_start_new_thread() and
PyThread_get_thread_ident(), the id parameter of
PyThreadState_SetAsyncExc(), and the thread_id field of PyThreadState
changed from "long" to "unsigned long".
* Restore a check in thread_get_ident().
Issue #27558: Fix a SystemError in the implementation of "raise" statement.
In a brand new thread, raise a RuntimeError since there is no active
exception to reraise.
