Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +00008/* Object and type object interface */

10/*
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +000011Objects are structures allocated on the heap. Special rules apply to
12the use of objects to ensure they are properly garbage-collected.
13Objects are never allocated statically or on the stack; they must be
14accessed through special macros and functions only. (Type objects are
15exceptions to the first rule; the standard types are represented by
Tim Peters4be93d02002-07-07 19:59:50 +000016statically initialized type objects, although work on type/class unification
17for Python 2.2 made it possible to have heap-allocated type objects too).
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +000018
19An object has a 'reference count' that is increased or decreased when a
20pointer to the object is copied or deleted; when the reference count
21reaches zero there are no references to the object left and it can be
22removed from the heap.
23
24An object has a 'type' that determines what it represents and what kind
25of data it contains. An object's type is fixed when it is created.
26Types themselves are represented as objects; an object contains a
27pointer to the corresponding type object. The type itself has a type
28pointer pointing to the object representing the type 'type', which
29contains a pointer to itself!).
30
31Objects do not float around in memory; once allocated an object keeps
32the same size and address. Objects that must hold variable-size data
33can contain pointers to variable-size parts of the object. Not all
34objects of the same type have the same size; but the size cannot change
35after allocation. (These restrictions are made so a reference to an
36object can be simply a pointer -- moving an object would require
37updating all the pointers, and changing an object's size would require
38moving it if there was another object right next to it.)
39
Guido van Rossumcaa63801995-01-12 11:45:45 +000040Objects are always accessed through pointers of the type 'PyObject *'.
41The type 'PyObject' is a structure that only contains the reference count
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +000042and the type pointer. The actual memory allocated for an object
43contains other data that can only be accessed after casting the pointer
44to a pointer to a longer structure type. This longer type must start
Guido van Rossumcaa63801995-01-12 11:45:45 +000045with the reference count and type fields; the macro PyObject_HEAD should be
Thomas Wouters7e474022000-07-16 12:04:32 +000046used for this (to accommodate for future changes). The implementation
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +000047of a particular object type can cast the object pointer to the proper
48type and back.
49
50A standard interface exists for objects that contain an array of items
51whose size is determined when the object is allocated.

Guido van Rossum36eef3c1998-10-08 02:10:56 +0000610
611These flags are used to extend the type structure in a backwards-compatible
612fashion. Extensions can use the flags to indicate (and test) when a given
613type structure contains a new feature. The Python core will use these when
614introducing new functionality between major revisions (to avoid mid-version
615changes in the PYTHON_API_VERSION).
616
617Arbitration of the flag bit positions will need to be coordinated among
luzpaza5293b42017-11-05 07:37:50 -0600618all extension writers who publicly release their extensions (this will

620
Guido van Rossum3cf5b1e2006-07-27 21:53:35 +0000621Most flags were removed as of Python 3.0 to make room for new flags. (Some
622flags are not for backwards compatibility but to indicate the presence of an
623optional feature; these flags remain of course.)
Guido van Rossum36eef3c1998-10-08 02:10:56 +0000624
625Type definitions should use Py_TPFLAGS_DEFAULT for their tp_flags value.
626
627Code can use PyType_HasFeature(type_ob, flag_value) to test whether the
628given type object has a specified feature.

Guido van Rossumcaa63801995-01-12 11:45:45 +0000690The macros Py_INCREF(op) and Py_DECREF(op) are used to increment or decrement
Tim Peters4be93d02002-07-07 19:59:50 +0000691reference counts. Py_DECREF calls the object's deallocator function when
692the refcount falls to 0; for
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000693objects that don't contain references to other objects or heap memory
694this can be the standard function free(). Both macros can be used
Tim Peters4be93d02002-07-07 19:59:50 +0000695wherever a void expression is allowed. The argument must not be a
Benjamin Peterson2a691a82008-03-31 01:51:45 +0000696NULL pointer. If it may be NULL, use Py_XINCREF/Py_XDECREF instead.
Tim Peters4be93d02002-07-07 19:59:50 +0000697The macro _Py_NewReference(op) initialize reference counts to 1, and
698in special builds (Py_REF_DEBUG, Py_TRACE_REFS) performs additional
699bookkeeping appropriate to the special build.
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000700
701We assume that the reference count field can never overflow; this can
Tim Peters4be93d02002-07-07 19:59:50 +0000702be proven when the size of the field is the same as the pointer size, so
703we ignore the possibility. Provided a C int is at least 32 bits (which
704is implicitly assumed in many parts of this code), that's enough for
705about 2**31 references to an object.

Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000710Type objects should never be deallocated; the type pointer in an object
711is not considered to be a reference to the type object, to save
712complications in the deallocation function. (This is actually a
713decision that's up to the implementer of each new type so if you want,
714you can count such references to the type object.)

971/*
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000972More conventions
973================
974
975Argument Checking
976-----------------
977
978Functions that take objects as arguments normally don't check for nil
979arguments, but they do check the type of the argument, and return an
980error if the function doesn't apply to the type.
981
982Failure Modes
983-------------
984
985Functions may fail for a variety of reasons, including running out of
Guido van Rossum3f5da241990-12-20 15:06:42 +0000986memory. This is communicated to the caller in two ways: an error string
987is set (see errors.h), and the function result differs: functions that
988normally return a pointer return NULL for failure, functions returning
989an integer return -1 (which could be a legal return value too!), and
990other functions return 0 for success and -1 for failure.
Tim Peters4be93d02002-07-07 19:59:50 +0000991Callers should always check for errors before using the result. If
992an error was set, the caller must either explicitly clear it, or pass
993the error on to its caller.
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000994
995Reference Counts
996----------------
997
998It takes a while to get used to the proper usage of reference counts.
999
1000Functions that create an object set the reference count to 1; such new
Guido van Rossumcaa63801995-01-12 11:45:45 +00001001objects must be stored somewhere or destroyed again with Py_DECREF().
Alex Martelli721b7762003-11-09 16:38:39 +00001002Some functions that 'store' objects, such as PyTuple_SetItem() and
1003PyList_SetItem(),
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +00001004don't increment the reference count of the object, since the most
1005frequent use is to store a fresh object. Functions that 'retrieve'
Alex Martelli721b7762003-11-09 16:38:39 +00001006objects, such as PyTuple_GetItem() and PyDict_GetItemString(), also
Guido van Rossumcaa63801995-01-12 11:45:45 +00001007don't increment
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +00001008the reference count, since most frequently the object is only looked at
1009quickly. Thus, to retrieve an object and store it again, the caller
Guido van Rossumcaa63801995-01-12 11:45:45 +00001010must call Py_INCREF() explicitly.
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +00001011
Alex Martelli721b7762003-11-09 16:38:39 +00001012NOTE: functions that 'consume' a reference count, like
1013PyList_SetItem(), consume the reference even if the object wasn't
1014successfully stored, to simplify error handling.
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +00001015
1016It seems attractive to make other functions that take an object as
Alex Martelli721b7762003-11-09 16:38:39 +00001017argument consume a reference count; however, this may quickly get
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +00001018confusing (even the current practice is already confusing). Consider
Guido van Rossumcaa63801995-01-12 11:45:45 +00001019it carefully, it may save lots of calls to Py_INCREF() and Py_DECREF() at
Guido van Rossum85a5fbb1990-10-14 12:07:46 +00001020times.

Tim Peters803526b2002-07-07 05:13:56 +00001026When deallocating a container object, it's possible to trigger an unbounded
1027chain of deallocations, as each Py_DECREF in turn drops the refcount on "the
1028next" object in the chain to 0. This can easily lead to stack faults, and
1029especially in threads (which typically have less stack space to work with).
Guido van Rossumd724b232000-03-13 16:01:29 +00001030
Tim Peters803526b2002-07-07 05:13:56 +00001031A container object that participates in cyclic gc can avoid this by
1032bracketing the body of its tp_dealloc function with a pair of macros:
Guido van Rossume92e6102000-04-24 15:40:53 +00001033
Tim Peters803526b2002-07-07 05:13:56 +00001034static void
1035mytype_dealloc(mytype *p)
1036{
Antoine Pitrouf95a1b32010-05-09 15:52:27 +00001037 ... declarations go here ...
Tim Peters803526b2002-07-07 05:13:56 +00001038
Antoine Pitrouf95a1b32010-05-09 15:52:27 +00001039 PyObject_GC_UnTrack(p); // must untrack first
1040 Py_TRASHCAN_SAFE_BEGIN(p)
1041 ... The body of the deallocator goes here, including all calls ...
1042 ... to Py_DECREF on contained objects. ...
1043 Py_TRASHCAN_SAFE_END(p)
Tim Peters803526b2002-07-07 05:13:56 +00001044}
1045
Tim Peters808eb592002-08-07 20:53:05 +00001046CAUTION: Never return from the middle of the body! If the body needs to
1047"get out early", put a label immediately before the Py_TRASHCAN_SAFE_END
1048call, and goto it. Else the call-depth counter (see below) will stay
1049above 0 forever, and the trashcan will never get emptied.
1050
Tim Peters803526b2002-07-07 05:13:56 +00001051How it works: The BEGIN macro increments a call-depth counter. So long
1052as this counter is small, the body of the deallocator is run directly without
1053further ado. But if the counter gets large, it instead adds p to a list of
1054objects to be deallocated later, skips the body of the deallocator, and
1055resumes execution after the END macro. The tp_dealloc routine then returns
1056without deallocating anything (and so unbounded call-stack depth is avoided).
1057
1058When the call stack finishes unwinding again, code generated by the END macro
1059notices this, and calls another routine to deallocate all the objects that
1060may have been added to the list of deferred deallocations. In effect, a
Xiang Zhanga66f9c62017-05-13 13:36:14 +08001061chain of N deallocations is broken into (N-1)/(PyTrash_UNWIND_LEVEL-1) pieces,
Tim Peters803526b2002-07-07 05:13:56 +00001062with the call stack never exceeding a depth of PyTrash_UNWIND_LEVEL.
