New submission from STINNER Victor <vstin...@python.org>:
In bpo-26588, I modified the _tracemalloc module to support tracing memory allocations in multiple "domains" for numpy. I modified hashtable.c to support keys larger than void*, and I modified _tracemalloc.c to use a new pointer_t structure which is made of (domain: unsigned int, ptr: void*). These changes made hashtable.c way more complicated than what it should be. I would like to reuse hashtable.c in more places. I am working on a change to remove the pointer_t type from _tracemalloc.c, and instead use a hash table for traces of domains other than the default domain (0). The new hash table maps a domain to a hash table: traces of a domain. tracemalloc_traces remains the default hash table for traces of the default domain. Since it's the most common case, it doesn't go through the new hash table. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 368747 nosy: vstinner priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: _tracemalloc: remove pointer_t type versions: Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40609> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
