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.
* Add failing test.
* bpo-29590: fix stack trace for gen.throw() with yield from (GH-NNNN)
When gen.throw() is called on a generator after a "yield from", the
intermediate stack trace entries are lost. This commit fixes that.
In debug mode, ensure that free lists are no longer used after being
finalized. Set numfree to -1 in finalization functions
(eg. _PyList_Fini()), and then check that numfree is not equal to -1
before using a free list (e.g list_dealloc()).
Each interpreter now has its own asynchronous generator free lists:
* Move async gen free lists into PyInterpreterState.
* Move _PyAsyncGen_MAXFREELIST define to pycore_interp.h
* Add _Py_async_gen_state structure.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyAsyncGen_ClearFreeLists
and _PyAsyncGen_Fini().
This updates _PyErr_ChainStackItem() to use _PyErr_SetObject()
instead of _PyErr_ChainExceptions(). This prevents a hang in
certain circumstances because _PyErr_SetObject() performs checks
to prevent cycles in the exception context chain while
_PyErr_ChainExceptions() doesn't.
When an asyncio.Task is cancelled, the exception traceback now
starts with where the task was first interrupted. Previously,
the traceback only had "depth one."
The previous commits on bpo-29587 got exception chaining working
with gen.throw() in the `yield` case. This patch also gets the
`yield from` case working.
As a consequence, implicit exception chaining now also works in
the asyncio scenario of awaiting on a task when an exception is
already active.
Tests are included for both the asyncio case and the pure
generator-only case.
_PyErr_ChainExceptions() now ensures that the first parameter is an
exception type, as done by _PyErr_SetObject().
* The following function now check PyExceptionInstance_Check() in an
assertion using a new _PyBaseExceptionObject_cast() helper
function:
* PyException_GetTraceback(), PyException_SetTraceback()
* PyException_GetCause(), PyException_SetCause()
* PyException_GetContext(), PyException_SetContext()
* PyExceptionClass_Name() now checks PyExceptionClass_Check() with an
assertion.
* Remove XXX comment and add gi_exc_state variable to _gen_throw().
* Remove comment from test_generators
This is a follow-up to GH-19823 that removes the check that the
exception value isn't NULL, prior to calling _PyErr_ChainExceptions().
This enables implicit exception chaining for gen.throw() in more
circumstances.
The commit also adds a test that a particular code snippet involving
gen.throw() doesn't crash. The test shows why the new
`gi_exc_state.exc_type != Py_None` check that was added is necessary.
Without the new check, the code snippet (as well as a number of other
tests) crashes on certain platforms (e.g. Fedora but not Mac).
Before this commit, if an exception was active inside a generator
when calling gen.throw(), that exception was lost (i.e. there was
no implicit exception chaining). This commit fixes that by
setting exc.__context__ when calling gen.throw(exc).
Before this commit, if an exception was active inside a generator
when calling gen.throw(), then that exception was lost (i.e. there
was no implicit exception chaining). This commit fixes that.
Remove the following function from the C API:
* PyAsyncGen_ClearFreeLists()
* PyContext_ClearFreeList()
* PyDict_ClearFreeList()
* PyFloat_ClearFreeList()
* PyFrame_ClearFreeList()
* PyList_ClearFreeList()
* PySet_ClearFreeList()
* PyTuple_ClearFreeList()
Make these functions private, move them to the internal C API and
change their return type to void.
Call explicitly PyGC_Collect() to free all free lists.
Note: PySet_ClearFreeList() did nothing.
The fix for [bpo-39386](https://bugs.python.org/issue39386) attempted to make it so you couldn't reuse a
agen.aclose() coroutine object. It accidentally also prevented you
from calling aclose() at all on an async generator that was already
closed or exhausted. This commit fixes it so we're only blocking the
actually illegal cases, while allowing the legal cases.
The new tests failed before this patch. Also confirmed that this fixes
the test failures we were seeing in Trio with Python dev builds:

Ignore `GeneratorExit` exceptions when throwing an exception into the `aclose` coroutine of an asynchronous generator.

Even when the helper is not started yet.
This behavior follows conventional generator one.
There is no reason for `async_generator_athrow` to handle `gen.throw()` differently.
https://bugs.python.org/issue38013
It is now allowed to add new fields at the end of the PyTypeObject struct without having to allocate a dedicated compatibility flag in tp_flags.
This will reduce the risk of running out of bits in the 32-bit tp_flags value.
coro->cr_origin wasn't initialized if compute_cr_origin() failed in
PyCoro_New(), which would cause a crash during the coroutine's
deallocation.

If Py_BUILD_CORE is defined, the PyThreadState_GET() macro access
_PyRuntime which comes from the internal pycore_state.h header.
Public headers must not require internal headers.
Move PyThreadState_GET() and _PyInterpreterState_GET_UNSAFE() from
Include/pystate.h to Include/internal/pycore_state.h, and rename
PyThreadState_GET() to _PyThreadState_GET() there.
The PyThreadState_GET() macro of pystate.h is now redefined when
pycore_state.h is included, to use the fast _PyThreadState_GET().
Changes:
* Add _PyThreadState_GET() macro
* Replace "PyThreadState_GET()->interp" with
_PyInterpreterState_GET_UNSAFE()
* Replace PyThreadState_GET() with _PyThreadState_GET() in internal C
files (compiled with Py_BUILD_CORE defined), but keep
PyThreadState_GET() in the public header files.
* _testcapimodule.c: replace PyThreadState_GET() with
PyThreadState_Get(); the module is not compiled with Py_BUILD_CORE
defined.
* pycore_state.h now requires Py_BUILD_CORE to be defined.
The commit removes one unnecessary "if" clause in genobject.c. That "if" clause was masking un-awaited coroutines warnings just to make writing unittests more convenient.
