78 A module that plans to do a blocking system call (or something else
79 that lasts a long time and doesn't touch Python data) can allow other
80 threads to run as follows:
82 ...preparations here...
83 Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS
84 ...blocking system call here...
85 Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS
86 ...interpret result here...
88 The Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS/Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS pair expands to a
89 {}-surrounded block.
90 To leave the block in the middle (e.g., with return), you must insert
91 a line containing Py_BLOCK_THREADS before the return, e.g.
93 if (...premature_exit...) {
94 Py_BLOCK_THREADS
95 PyErr_SetFromErrno(PyExc_IOError);
96 return NULL;
99 An alternative is:
101 Py_BLOCK_THREADS
102 if (...premature_exit...) {
103 PyErr_SetFromErrno(PyExc_IOError);
104 return NULL;
106 Py_UNBLOCK_THREADS
108 For convenience, that the value of 'errno' is restored across
109 Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS and Py_BLOCK_THREADS.
111 WARNING: NEVER NEST CALLS TO Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS AND
112 Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS!!!
114 The function PyEval_InitThreads() should be called only from
115 initthread() in "threadmodule.c".
117 Note that not yet all candidates have been converted to use this
118 mechanism!
