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".
* sys.settrace(), sys.setprofile() and _lsprof.Profiler.enable() now
properly report PySys_Audit() error if "sys.setprofile" or
"sys.settrace" audit event is denied.
* Add _PyEval_SetProfile() and _PyEval_SetTrace() function: similar
to PyEval_SetProfile() and PyEval_SetTrace() but take a tstate
parameter and return -1 on error.
* Add _PyObject_FastCallTstate() function.
PyInterpreterState.eval_frame function now requires a tstate (Python
thread state) parameter.
Add private functions to the C API to get and set the frame
evaluation function:
* Add tstate parameter to _PyFrameEvalFunction function type.
* Add _PyInterpreterState_GetEvalFrameFunc() and
_PyInterpreterState_SetEvalFrameFunc() functions.
* Add tstate parameter to _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault().
PyGILState_Ensure() doesn't call PyEval_InitThreads() anymore when a
new Python thread state is created. The GIL is created by
Py_Initialize() since Python 3.7, it's not needed to call
PyEval_InitThreads() explicitly.
Add an assertion to ensure that the GIL is already created.
* Remove ceval parameter of take_gil(): get it from tstate.
* Move exit_thread_if_finalizing() call inside take_gil(). Replace
exit_thread_if_finalizing() with tstate_must_exit(): the caller is
now responsible to call PyThread_exit_thread().
* Move is_tstate_valid() assertion inside take_gil(). Remove
is_tstate_valid(): inline code into take_gil().
* Move gil_created() assertion inside take_gil().
* exit_thread_if_finalizing() does now access directly _PyRuntime
variable, rather than using tstate->interp->runtime since tstate
can be a dangling pointer after Py_Finalize() has been called.
* exit_thread_if_finalizing() is now called *before* calling
take_gil(). _PyRuntime.finalizing is an atomic variable,
we don't need to hold the GIL to access it.
* Add ensure_tstate_not_null() function to check that tstate is not
NULL at runtime. Check tstate earlier. take_gil() does not longer
check if tstate is NULL.
Cleanup:
* PyEval_RestoreThread() no longer saves/restores errno: it's already
done inside take_gil().
* PyEval_AcquireLock(), PyEval_AcquireThread(),
PyEval_RestoreThread() and _PyEval_EvalFrameDefault() now check if
tstate is valid with the new is_tstate_valid() function which uses
_PyMem_IsPtrFreed().
The Py_FatalError() function is replaced with a macro which logs
automatically the name of the current function, unless the
Py_LIMITED_API macro is defined.
Changes:
* Add _Py_FatalErrorFunc() function.
* Remove the function name from the message of Py_FatalError() calls
which included the function name.
* Update tests.
Convert _PyRuntimeState.finalizing field to an atomic variable:
* Rename it to _finalizing
* Change its type to _Py_atomic_address
* Add _PyRuntimeState_GetFinalizing() and _PyRuntimeState_SetFinalizing()
functions
* Remove _Py_CURRENTLY_FINALIZING() function: replace it with testing
directly _PyRuntimeState_GetFinalizing() value
Convert _PyRuntimeState_GetThreadState() to static inline function.
In function `_PyEval_EvalFrameDefault`, macros PREDICT and PREDICTED use the same identifier creation scheme, which may be shared between them, reducing code repetition, and do ensure that the same identifier is generated.
gcc -Wcast-qual turns up a number of instances of casting away constness of pointers. Some of these can be safely modified, by either:
Adding the const to the type cast, as in:
- return _PyUnicode_FromUCS1((unsigned char*)s, size);
+ return _PyUnicode_FromUCS1((const unsigned char*)s, size);
or, Removing the cast entirely, because it's not necessary (but probably was at one time), as in:
- PyDTrace_FUNCTION_ENTRY((char *)filename, (char *)funcname, lineno);
+ PyDTrace_FUNCTION_ENTRY(filename, funcname, lineno);
These changes will not change code, but they will make it much easier to check for errors in consts

Replace a few Py_FatalError() calls if tstate is NULL with
assert(tstate != NULL) in ceval.c.
PyEval_AcquireThread(), PyEval_ReleaseThread() and
PyEval_RestoreThread() must never be called with a NULL tstate.
* Add DICT_UPDATE and DICT_MERGE bytecodes. Use them for ** unpacking.
* Remove BUILD_MAP_UNPACK and BUILD_MAP_UNPACK_WITH_CALL, as they are now unused.
* Update magic number for ** unpacking opcodes.
* Update dis.rst to incorporate new bytecodes.
* Add blurb entry.
* Add three new bytecodes: LIST_TO_TUPLE, LIST_EXTEND, SET_UPDATE. Use them to implement star unpacking expressions.
* Remove four bytecodes BUILD_LIST_UNPACK, BUILD_TUPLE_UNPACK, BUILD_SET_UNPACK and BUILD_TUPLE_UNPACK_WITH_CALL opcodes as they are now unused.
* Update magic number and dis.rst for new bytecodes.
* Reorder the __aenter__ and __aexit__ checks for async with
* Add assertions for async with body being skipped
* Swap __aexit__ and __aenter__ loading in the documentation
Break up COMPARE_OP into four logically distinct opcodes:
* COMPARE_OP for rich comparisons
* IS_OP for 'is' and 'is not' tests
* CONTAINS_OP for 'in' and 'is not' tests
* JUMP_IF_NOT_EXC_MATCH for checking exceptions in 'try-except' statements.
When producing the bytecode of exception handlers with name binding (like `except Exception as e`) we need to produce a try-finally block to make sure that the name is deleted after the handler is executed to prevent cycles in the stack frame objects. The bytecode associated with this try-finally block does not have source lines associated and it was causing problems when the tracing functionality was running over it.
Remove BEGIN_FINALLY, END_FINALLY, CALL_FINALLY and POP_FINALLY bytecodes. Implement finally blocks by code duplication.
Reimplement frame.lineno setter using line numbers rather than bytecode offsets.
Add PyInterpreterState.runtime field: reference to the _PyRuntime
global variable. This field exists to not have to pass runtime in
addition to tstate to a function. Get runtime from tstate:
tstate->interp->runtime.
Remove "_PyRuntimeState *runtime" parameter from functions already
taking a "PyThreadState *tstate" parameter.
_PyGC_Init() first parameter becomes "PyThreadState *tstate".
Additional note: the `method_check_args` function in `Objects/descrobject.c` is written in such a way that it applies to all kinds of descriptors. In particular, a future re-implementation of `wrapper_descriptor` could use that code.

* Add _Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and _Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() which
require a tstate argument.
* Pass tstate to _Py_MakeRecCheck() and _Py_CheckRecursiveCall().
* Convert Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() macros
to static inline functions.
_PyThreadState_GET() is the most efficient way to get the tstate, and
so using it with _Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and
_Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() should be a little bit more efficient than
using Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() which use
the "slower" PyThreadState_GET().
Provide Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() as
regular functions for the limited API. Previously, there were defined
as macros, but these macros didn't work with the limited API which
cannot access PyThreadState.recursion_depth field.
Remove _Py_CheckRecursionLimit from the stable ABI.
Add Include/cpython/ceval.h header file.
bpo-37151: remove special case for PyCFunction from PyObject_Call
Alse, make the undocumented function PyCFunction_Call an alias
of PyObject_Call and deprecate it.
