New submission from Maciej Fijalkowski: Hi
The use case here is for C-based statistical profilers. When running vmprof on linux/os x, you can get the current thread state from PyThreadState_GetUnchecked or a similar solution. However, on windows you need to walk all the interpreter state, for which there is an API. However that API is only ever used with locks (HEAD_LOCK/HEAD_UNLOCK), which are not exposed, which turns API mostly useless. ---------- messages: 270188 nosy: fijall, haypo priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Expose HEAD_LOCK/HEAD_UNLOCK in pystate.c type: enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27483> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
