This is actually true and it's quite easy to produce a bug that triggers a segmentation fault when iterating over a large list of threads create dynamically. That makes PyThreadState_Next barely usable for any program that has a few threads. The head mutex needs to be locked to be able to iterate safely over the list of thread. ---------- nosy: +jd title: PyThreadState_Next not thread safe? -> PyThreadState_Next not thread safe versions: +Python 2.7, Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue1021318> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
