Multi-phase init extension modules may now indicate that they support | ||
running in subinterpreters that have their own GIL. This is done by using | ||
``Py_MOD_PER_INTERPRETER_GIL_SUPPORTED`` as the value for the | ||
``Py_mod_multiple_interpreters`` module def slot. Otherwise the module, by | ||
default, cannot be imported in such subinterpreters. (This does not affect | ||
the main interpreter or subinterpreters that do not have their own GIL.) In | ||
addition to the isolation that multi-phase init already normally requires, | ||
support for per-interpreter GIL involves one additional constraint: | ||
thread-safety. If the module has external (linked) dependencies and those | ||
libraries have any state that isn't thread-safe then the module must do the | ||
additional work to add thread-safety. This should be an uncommon case. |
