This converts functions, code, str, bytes, bytearray, and memoryview objects to PyCodeObject,
and ensure that the object looks like a script. That means no args, no return, and no closure.
_PyCode_GetPureScriptXIData() takes it a step further and ensures there are no globals.
We also add _PyObject_SupportedAsScript() to the internal C-API.
There's some extra complexity due to making sure we we get things right when handling functions and classes defined in the __main__ module. This is also reflected in the tests, including the addition of extra functions in test.support.import_helper.
The following are added to the internal C-API:
* _PyErr_FormatV()
* _PyErr_SetModuleNotFoundError()
* _PyXIData_GetNotShareableErrorType()
* _PyXIData_FormatNotShareableError()
We also drop _PyXIData_lookup_context_t and _PyXIData_GetLookupContext().
These changes makes it easier to backport the _interpreters, _interpqueues, and _interpchannels modules to Python 3.12.
This involves the following:
* add the _PyXI_GET_STATE() and _PyXI_GET_GLOBAL_STATE() macros
* add _PyXIData_lookup_context_t and _PyXIData_GetLookupContext()
* add _Py_xi_state_init() and _Py_xi_state_fini()
These changes makes it easier to backport the _interpreters, _interpqueues, and _interpchannels modules to Python 3.12.
This involves the following:
* rename several structs and typedefs
* add several typedefs
* stop using the PyThreadState.state field directly in parking_lot.c
The primary objective here is to allow some later changes to be cleaner. Mostly this involves renaming things and moving a few things around.
* CrossInterpreterData -> XIData
* crossinterpdatafunc -> xidatafunc
* split out pycore_crossinterp_data_registry.h
* add _PyXIData_lookup_t
This is similar to the situation with threading._DummyThread. The methods (incl. __del__()) of interpreters.Interpreter objects must be careful with interpreters not created by interpreters.create(). The simplest thing to start with is to disable any method that modifies or runs in the interpreter. As part of this, the runtime keeps track of where an interpreter was created. We also handle interpreter "refcounts" properly.
For the most part, these changes make is substantially easier to backport subinterpreter-related code to 3.12, especially the related modules (e.g. _xxsubinterpreters). The main motivation is to support releasing a PyPI package with the 3.13 capabilities compiled for 3.12.
A lot of the changes here involve either hiding details behind macros/functions or splitting up some files.
We need the TracebackException of uncaught exceptions for a single purpose: the error display. Thus we only need to pass the formatted error display between interpreters. Passing a pickled TracebackException is overkill.
When an exception is uncaught in Interpreter.exec_sync(), it helps to show that exception's error display if uncaught in the calling interpreter. We do so here by generating a TracebackException in the subinterpreter and passing it between interpreters using pickle.
This replaces some usages of PyThread_type_lock with PyMutex, which does not require memory allocation to initialize.
This simplifies some of the runtime initialization and is also one step towards avoiding changing the default raw memory allocator during initialize/finalization, which can be non-thread-safe in some circumstances.
I added _Py_excinfo to the internal API (and added its functions in Python/errors.c) in gh-111530 (9322ce9). Since then I've had a nagging sense that I should have added the type and functions in its own PR. While I do plan on using _Py_excinfo outside crossinterp.c very soon (see gh-111572/gh-111573), I'd still feel more comfortable if the _Py_excinfo stuff went in as its own PR. Hence, here we are.
(FWIW, I may combine that with gh-111572, which I may, in turn, combine with gh-111573. We'll see.)
This moves several general internal APIs out of _xxsubinterpretersmodule.c and into the new Python/crossinterp.c (and the corresponding internal headers).
Specifically:
* _Py_excinfo, etc.: the initial implementation for non-object exception snapshots (in pycore_pyerrors.h and Python/errors.c)
* _PyXI_exception_info, etc.: helpers for passing an exception beween interpreters (wraps _Py_excinfo)
* _PyXI_namespace, etc.: helpers for copying a dict of attrs between interpreters
* _PyXI_Enter(), _PyXI_Exit(): functions that abstract out the transitions between one interpreter and a second that will do some work temporarily
Again, these were all abstracted out of _xxsubinterpretersmodule.c as generalizations. I plan on proposing these as public API at some point.
This is partly to clear this stuff out of pystate.c, but also in preparation for moving some code out of _xxsubinterpretersmodule.c. This change also moves this stuff to the internal API (new: Include/internal/pycore_crossinterp.h). @vstinner did this previously and I undid it. Now I'm re-doing it. :/
