* Note that tp_clear and m_clear are not always called (GH-27581)Petr Viktorin2021-08-041-0/+6

* bpo-42528: Improve the docs of most Py*_Check{,Exact} API calls (GH-23602)Antonio Cuni2021-01-061-1/+2
| | | | | I think that none of these API calls can fail, but only few of them are documented as such. Add the sentence "This function always succeeds" (which is the same already used e.g. by PyNumber_Check) to all of them.
* bpo-1635741: Add PyModule_AddObjectRef() function (GH-23122)Victor Stinner2020-11-041-14/+90
| | | | | Added PyModule_AddObjectRef() function: similar to PyModule_AddObjectRef() but don't steal a reference to the value on success.
* bpo-40204, doc: Fix syntax of C variables (GH-21846)Victor Stinner2020-08-131-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For example, fix the following Sphinx 3 errors: Doc/c-api/buffer.rst:102: WARNING: Error in declarator or parameters Invalid C declaration: Expected identifier in nested name. [error at 5] void \*obj -----^ Doc/c-api/arg.rst:130: WARNING: Unparseable C cross-reference: 'PyObject*' Invalid C declaration: Expected end of definition. [error at 8] PyObject* --------^ The modified documentation is compatible with Sphinx 2 and Sphinx 3.
* bpo-38387: Formally document PyDoc_STRVAR and PyDoc_STR macros (GH-16607)Brad Solomon2020-04-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | Adds a short description of `PyDoc_STRVAR` and `PyDoc_STR` to "Useful macros" section of C-API docs. Currently, there is [one lone mention](https://docs.python.org/3/c-api/module.html?highlight=pydoc_strvar#c.PyModuleDef) in the C-API reference, despite the fact that `PyDoc_STRVAR` is ubiquitous to `Modules/`. Additionally, this properly uses `c:macro` within `Doc/c-api/module.rst` to link.
* bpo-38644: Make tstate more explicit inside pystate.c (GH-19182)Victor Stinner2020-03-261-0/+4
| | | | Fix PyInterpreterState_New(): Don't call PyErr_SetString() when there is no current Python thread state (if tstate is NULL).
* bpo-40024: Add PyModule_AddType() helper function (GH-19088)Dong-hee Na2020-03-221-1/+11
|
* bpo-39824: module_traverse() don't call m_traverse if md_state=NULL (GH-18738)Victor Stinner2020-03-171-10/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Extension modules: m_traverse, m_clear and m_free functions of PyModuleDef are no longer called if the module state was requested but is not allocated yet. This is the case immediately after the module is created and before the module is executed (Py_mod_exec function). More precisely, these functions are not called if m_size is greater than 0 and the module state (as returned by PyModule_GetState()) is NULL. Extension modules without module state (m_size <= 0) are not affected. Co-Authored-By: Petr Viktorin <encukou@gmail.com>
* bpo-38159: Clarify documentation of PyState_AddModule (GH-16101)Petr Viktorin2019-11-011-0/+11
| | | | | This was never intented to be called manually from PyInit_*. Also, clarify PyState_RemoveModule return value.
* bpo-38600: Change the mark up of NULL in the C API documentation. (GH-16950)Serhiy Storchaka2019-10-301-17/+17
| | | | Replace all *NULL* with ``NULL``.
* bpo-26868: Fix example usage of PyModule_AddObject. (#15725)Brandt Bucher2019-09-121-1/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Add a note to the PyModule_AddObject docs. * Correct example usages of PyModule_AddObject. * Whitespace. * Clean up wording. * 📜🤖 Added by blurb_it. * First code review. * Add < 0 in the tests with PyModule_AddObject
* Doc: Replace the deprecated highlightlang directive by highlight. (#13377)Stéphane Wirtel2019-05-171-1/+1
| | | | highlightlang is deprecated since April 2018 in Sphinx. See https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/pull/4845
* bpo-32374: m_traverse may be called with m_state=NULL (GH-5140)Marcel Plch2018-03-171-3/+9
| | | | | Multi-phase initialized modules allow m_traverse to be called while the module is still being initialized, so module authors may need to account for that.
* bpo-30656: Fix Python C API Module Objects documentation (GH-2170)Emily Morehouse2017-06-131-1/+1
| | | `PyModule_New()` now refers to `PyModule_NewObject()`
* bpo-29918: Add missed "const" modifiers in C API documentation. (#846)Serhiy Storchaka2017-03-301-4/+4

* Issue #27782: Fix m_methods handling in multiphase initNick Coghlan2016-08-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | Multi-phase extension module import now correctly allows the ``m_methods`` field to be used to add module level functions to instances of non-module types returned from ``Py_create_mod``. Patch by Xiang Zhang.

* PEP 489: Multi-phase extension module initializationNick Coghlan2015-05-231-26/+66
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Known limitations of the current implementation: - documentation changes are incomplete - there's a reference leak I haven't tracked down yet The leak is most visible by running: ./python -m test -R3:3 test_importlib However, you can also see it by running: ./python -X showrefcount Importing the array or _testmultiphase modules, and then deleting them from both sys.modules and the local namespace shows significant increases in the total number of active references each cycle. By contrast, with _testcapi (which continues to use single-phase initialisation) the global refcounts stabilise after a couple of cycles.

* | #17115,17116: Have modules initialize the __package__ and __loader__Brett Cannon2013-05-041-2/+9
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | attributes to None. The long-term goal is for people to be able to rely on these attributes existing and checking for None to see if they have been set. Since import itself sets these attributes when a loader does not the only instances when the attributes are None are from someone overloading __import__() and not using a loader or someone creating a module from scratch. This patch also unifies module initialization. Before you could have different attributes with default values depending on how the module object was created. Now the only way to not get the same default set of attributes is to circumvent initialization by calling ModuleType.__new__() directly.

This slows the test down, but should make it correct. There was a race condition before where the server could have assigned a port, yet it wasn't ready to serve requests. If the client sent a request before the server was completely ready, it would get an exception. There was machinery to try to handle this condition.
