[New-bugs-announce] [issue40513] Move _PyRuntimeState.ceval to PyInterpreterState

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org>:

To get one GIL per interpreter (bpo-40512), remaining _PyRuntimeState.ceval members should be moved to PyInterpreterState.ceval. The work started in bpo-39984 with ceval "pending calls" and ceval "eval breaker".

There are 4 remaining fields:

struct _ceval_runtime_state {
    int recursion_limit;
    /* Request for dropping the GIL */
    _Py_atomic_int gil_drop_request;
    /* Request for checking signals. */
    _Py_atomic_int signals_pending;
    struct _gil_runtime_state gil;
};

The most complex part will be to move the "gil" member: bpo-40512 lists all sub-tasks which must be completed before being able to have one GIL per interpreter without crashing.
