Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 11 | Objects are structures allocated on the heap. Special rules apply to |
| 12 | the use of objects to ensure they are properly garbage-collected. |
| 13 | Objects are never allocated statically or on the stack; they must be |
| 14 | accessed through special macros and functions only. (Type objects are |
| 15 | exceptions to the first rule; the standard types are represented by |
Tim Peters | 4be93d0 | 2002-07-07 19:59:50 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 16 | statically initialized type objects, although work on type/class unification |
| 17 | for Python 2.2 made it possible to have heap-allocated type objects too). |
Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 18 | |
| 19 | An object has a 'reference count' that is increased or decreased when a |
| 20 | pointer to the object is copied or deleted; when the reference count |
| 21 | reaches zero there are no references to the object left and it can be |
| 22 | removed from the heap. |
| 23 | |
| 24 | An object has a 'type' that determines what it represents and what kind |
| 25 | of data it contains. An object's type is fixed when it is created. |
| 26 | Types themselves are represented as objects; an object contains a |
| 27 | pointer to the corresponding type object. The type itself has a type |
| 28 | pointer pointing to the object representing the type 'type', which |
| 29 | contains a pointer to itself!). |
| 30 | |
| 31 | Objects do not float around in memory; once allocated an object keeps |
| 32 | the same size and address. Objects that must hold variable-size data |
| 33 | can contain pointers to variable-size parts of the object. Not all |
| 34 | objects of the same type have the same size; but the size cannot change |
| 35 | after allocation. (These restrictions are made so a reference to an |
| 36 | object can be simply a pointer -- moving an object would require |
| 37 | updating all the pointers, and changing an object's size would require |
| 38 | moving it if there was another object right next to it.) |
| 39 | |
Guido van Rossum | caa6380 | 1995-01-12 11:45:45 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 40 | Objects are always accessed through pointers of the type 'PyObject *'. |
| 41 | The type 'PyObject' is a structure that only contains the reference count |
Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 42 | and the type pointer. The actual memory allocated for an object |
| 43 | contains other data that can only be accessed after casting the pointer |
| 44 | to a pointer to a longer structure type. This longer type must start |
Guido van Rossum | caa6380 | 1995-01-12 11:45:45 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 45 | with the reference count and type fields; the macro PyObject_HEAD should be |
Thomas Wouters | 7e47402 | 2000-07-16 12:04:32 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 46 | used for this (to accommodate for future changes). The implementation |
Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 47 | of a particular object type can cast the object pointer to the proper |
| 48 | type and back. |
| 49 | |
| 50 | A standard interface exists for objects that contain an array of items |
| 51 | whose size is determined when the object is allocated. |

| 483 | These flags are used to extend the type structure in a backwards-compatible |
| 484 | fashion. Extensions can use the flags to indicate (and test) when a given |
| 485 | type structure contains a new feature. The Python core will use these when |
| 486 | introducing new functionality between major revisions (to avoid mid-version |
| 487 | changes in the PYTHON_API_VERSION). |
| 488 | |
| 489 | Arbitration of the flag bit positions will need to be coordinated among |

| 547 | the refcount falls to 0; for |
Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 548 | objects that don't contain references to other objects or heap memory |

Tim Peters | 4be93d0 | 2002-07-07 19:59:50 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 550 | wherever a void expression is allowed. The argument must not be a |
| 551 | NIL pointer. If it may be NIL, use Py_XINCREF/Py_XDECREF instead. |
| 552 | The macro _Py_NewReference(op) initialize reference counts to 1, and |
| 553 | in special builds (Py_REF_DEBUG, Py_TRACE_REFS) performs additional |
| 554 | bookkeeping appropriate to the special build. |
Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 555 | |
| 556 | We assume that the reference count field can never overflow; this can |
Tim Peters | 4be93d0 | 2002-07-07 19:59:50 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 557 | be proven when the size of the field is the same as the pointer size, so |
| 558 | we ignore the possibility. Provided a C int is at least 32 bits (which |
| 559 | is implicitly assumed in many parts of this code), that's enough for |
| 560 | about 2**31 references to an object. |

Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 565 | Type objects should never be deallocated; the type pointer in an object |

| 679 | * The safe way is: |

| 685 | * `op` points to a valid object. |
| 686 | * |
| 687 | * There are cases where it's safe to use the naive code, but they're brittle. |
| 688 | * For example, if `op` points to a Python integer, you know that destroying |

Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 747 | More conventions |
| 748 | ================ |
| 749 | |
| 750 | Argument Checking |
| 751 | ----------------- |
| 752 | |
| 753 | Functions that take objects as arguments normally don't check for nil |
| 754 | arguments, but they do check the type of the argument, and return an |
| 755 | error if the function doesn't apply to the type. |
| 756 | |
| 757 | Failure Modes |
| 758 | ------------- |
| 759 | |
| 760 | Functions may fail for a variety of reasons, including running out of |
Guido van Rossum | 3f5da24 | 1990-12-20 15:06:42 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 761 | memory. This is communicated to the caller in two ways: an error string |
| 762 | is set (see errors.h), and the function result differs: functions that |
| 763 | normally return a pointer return NULL for failure, functions returning |
| 764 | an integer return -1 (which could be a legal return value too!), and |
| 765 | other functions return 0 for success and -1 for failure. |
Tim Peters | 4be93d0 | 2002-07-07 19:59:50 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 766 | Callers should always check for errors before using the result. If |
| 767 | an error was set, the caller must either explicitly clear it, or pass |
| 768 | the error on to its caller. |
Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 769 | |
| 770 | Reference Counts |
| 771 | ---------------- |
| 772 | |
| 773 | It takes a while to get used to the proper usage of reference counts. |
| 774 | |
| 775 | Functions that create an object set the reference count to 1; such new |
Guido van Rossum | caa6380 | 1995-01-12 11:45:45 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 776 | objects must be stored somewhere or destroyed again with Py_DECREF(). |
Alex Martelli | 721b776 | 2003-11-09 16:38:39 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 777 | Some functions that 'store' objects, such as PyTuple_SetItem() and |
| 778 | PyList_SetItem(), |
Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 779 | don't increment the reference count of the object, since the most |
| 780 | frequent use is to store a fresh object. Functions that 'retrieve' |
Alex Martelli | 721b776 | 2003-11-09 16:38:39 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 781 | objects, such as PyTuple_GetItem() and PyDict_GetItemString(), also |
Guido van Rossum | caa6380 | 1995-01-12 11:45:45 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 782 | don't increment |
Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 783 | the reference count, since most frequently the object is only looked at |
| 784 | quickly. Thus, to retrieve an object and store it again, the caller |
Guido van Rossum | caa6380 | 1995-01-12 11:45:45 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 785 | must call Py_INCREF() explicitly. |
Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 786 | |
Alex Martelli | 721b776 | 2003-11-09 16:38:39 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 787 | NOTE: functions that 'consume' a reference count, like |
| 788 | PyList_SetItem(), consume the reference even if the object wasn't |
| 789 | successfully stored, to simplify error handling. |
Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 790 | |
| 791 | It seems attractive to make other functions that take an object as |
Alex Martelli | 721b776 | 2003-11-09 16:38:39 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 792 | argument consume a reference count; however, this may quickly get |
Guido van Rossum | 85a5fbb | 1990-10-14 12:07:46 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 793 | confusing (even the current practice is already confusing). Consider |
Guido van Rossum | caa6380 | 1995-01-12 11:45:45 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 794 | it carefully, it may save lots of calls to Py_INCREF() and Py_DECREF() at |

Tim Peters | 803526b | 2002-07-07 05:13:56 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 801 | When deallocating a container object, it's possible to trigger an unbounded |
| 802 | chain of deallocations, as each Py_DECREF in turn drops the refcount on "the |
| 803 | next" object in the chain to 0. This can easily lead to stack faults, and |
| 804 | especially in threads (which typically have less stack space to work with). |

Tim Peters | 803526b | 2002-07-07 05:13:56 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 806 | A container object that participates in cyclic gc can avoid this by |
| 807 | bracketing the body of its tp_dealloc function with a pair of macros: |
Guido van Rossum | e92e610 | 2000-04-24 15:40:53 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 808 | |
Tim Peters | 803526b | 2002-07-07 05:13:56 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 809 | static void |
| 810 | mytype_dealloc(mytype *p) |
| 811 | { |
| 812 | ... declarations go here ... |
| 813 | |
| 814 | PyObject_GC_UnTrack(p); // must untrack first |
| 815 | Py_TRASHCAN_SAFE_BEGIN(p) |
| 816 | ... The body of the deallocator goes here, including all calls ... |
| 817 | ... to Py_DECREF on contained objects. ... |
| 818 | Py_TRASHCAN_SAFE_END(p) |
| 819 | } |
| 820 | |
Tim Peters | 808eb59 | 2002-08-07 20:53:05 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 821 | CAUTION: Never return from the middle of the body! If the body needs to |
| 822 | "get out early", put a label immediately before the Py_TRASHCAN_SAFE_END |
| 823 | call, and goto it. Else the call-depth counter (see below) will stay |
| 824 | above 0 forever, and the trashcan will never get emptied. |
| 825 | |
Tim Peters | 803526b | 2002-07-07 05:13:56 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 826 | How it works: The BEGIN macro increments a call-depth counter. So long |
| 827 | as this counter is small, the body of the deallocator is run directly without |
| 828 | further ado. But if the counter gets large, it instead adds p to a list of |
| 829 | objects to be deallocated later, skips the body of the deallocator, and |
| 830 | resumes execution after the END macro. The tp_dealloc routine then returns |
| 831 | without deallocating anything (and so unbounded call-stack depth is avoided). |
| 832 | |
| 833 | When the call stack finishes unwinding again, code generated by the END macro |
| 834 | notices this, and calls another routine to deallocate all the objects that |
| 835 | may have been added to the list of deferred deallocations. In effect, a |
| 836 | chain of N deallocations is broken into N / PyTrash_UNWIND_LEVEL pieces, |
| 837 | with the call stack never exceeding a depth of PyTrash_UNWIND_LEVEL. |
