gh-98610: Adjust the Optional Restrictions on Subinterpreters (GH-98618)

By default, we were disallowing all three for "isolated" interpreters. We always allowed all three for the main interpreter and those created through the legacy `Py_NewInterpreter()` API. Those settings were a bit conservative, so here we've adjusted the optional restrictions to: fork, exec, threads, and daemon threads. The default for "isolated" interpreters disables fork, exec, and daemon threads. Regular threads are allowed by default. We continue always allowing everything For the main interpreter and the legacy API. In the code, we add `_PyInterpreterConfig.allow_exec` and `_PyInterpreterConfig.allow_daemon_threads`. We also add `Py_RTFLAGS_DAEMON_THREADS` and `Py_RTFLAGS_EXEC`. files: A Misc/NEWS.d/next/C API/2022-10-24-12-09-17.gh-issue-98610.PLX2Np.rst M Include/cpython/initconfig.h M Include/cpython/pystate.h M Lib/test/test__xxsubinterpreters.py M Lib/test/test_capi.py M Lib/test/test_embed.py M Lib/test/test_threading.py M Lib/threading.py M Modules/_posixsubprocess.c M Modules/_testcapimodule.c M Modules/_threadmodule.c M Modules/_winapi.c M Modules/_xxsubinterpretersmodule.c M Modules/posixmodule.c M Python/pylifecycle.c diff --git a/Include/cpython/initconfig.h b/Include/cpython/initconfig.h index 64748cf78beb..6ce42b4c0950 100644 --- a/Include/cpython/initconfig.h +++ b/Include/cpython/initconfig.h @@ -245,15 +245,25 @@ PyAPI_FUNC(PyStatus) PyConfig_SetWideStringList(PyConfig *config, typedef struct { int allow_fork; - int allow_subprocess; + int allow_exec; int allow_threads; + int allow_daemon_threads; } _PyInterpreterConfig; +#define _PyInterpreterConfig_INIT \ + { \ + .allow_fork = 0, \ + .allow_exec = 0, \ + .allow_threads = 1, \ + .allow_daemon_threads = 0, \ + } + #define _PyInterpreterConfig_LEGACY_INIT \ { \ .allow_fork = 1, \ - .allow_subprocess = 1, \ + .allow_exec = 1, \ .allow_threads = 1, \ + .allow_daemon_threads = 1, \ } /* --- Helper functions --------------------------------------- */ diff --git a/Include/cpython/pystate.h b/Include/cpython/pystate.h index 7996bd34eac9..70c23427807e 100644 --- a/Include/cpython/pystate.h +++ b/Include/cpython/pystate.h @@ -11,16 +11,17 @@ is available in a given context.
