You're right, I was confusing what happens automatically for classes defined in
Python (i.e. the full treatment in type_new) vs those defined statically (i.e.
just the parts in PyType_Ready).
Given that PyType_FromSpec doesn't currently support inheritance, providing a
default tp_dealloc before the inherit_slots() call in PyType_Ready would work
OK in the near term.
However, once inheritance support is added by #15146 then it would be wrong -
the default slot entry would override an inherited one.
So, I think this adjustment actually needs to be handled in PyType_Ready, at
some point after the inherit_slots() call.
Something like:
/* Sanity check for tp_dealloc. */
if ((type->tp_flags & Py_TPFLAGS_HEAPTYPE) &&
(type->tp_dealloc == type_dealloc)) {
/* Type has been declared as a heap type, but has inherited the
default allocator. This can happen when using the limited API
to dynamically create types.
*/
type->tp_dealloc = subtype_dealloc;
}
