Description Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2024-06-13 21:07:17 UTC
In 3.13 python extensions need to declare support for GIL features, for example if they don't declare Py_MOD_GIL_NOT_USED then it will cause the GIL to be enabled even when python was launched in free-threaded mode:

https://docs.python.org/3.13/whatsnew/3.13.html#free-threaded-cpython

We can use a patch with ifdef like this to simultaneously support older python:

There's a PyUnstable_Module_SetGIL() function we can use with single-phase init modules, but it's an unstable API so it seems better to migrate to multi-phase init:

    Allow GIL to be disabled in whirlpool C extension
    
    In 3.13 python extensions need to declare support for GIL features, for
    example if they don't declare Py_MOD_GIL_NOT_USED then it will cause the
    GIL to be enabled even when python was launched in free-threaded mode.
    
    This requires "multi-phase initialization" because Py_mod_create is
    incompatible with m_slots. There's a PyUnstable_Module_SetGIL() function
    that can be used with single-phase init, but it's an unstable API, so
    it's better to use multi-phase init. There's no need to use
    PyModule_GetState() because the whirlpool module has no mutable state.
