Erik Bray added the comment: Here's a first stab at a patch for this. A linked list is maintained which maps pthread_key_t instances to an int "key_id" that is used for the PyThread API. Each function needs to map a given key_id to the actual pthread_key_t. This adds a little bit of overhead of course, but in typical usage I don't think there are many entries in this list to loop over.
This also reverts the change from #22206 which is no longer relevant. No synchronization is provided for PyThread_create_key and PyThread_delete_key, but in typical usage that would be the user's responsibility anyways. Otherwise every PyThread_*_key function would have to have a mutex around it. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue25658> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
