* apply more allow_threads
* Simplify STW thread state transitions
- Fix park_detached_threads: successful CAS no longer sets
all_suspended=false, avoiding unnecessary polling rounds
- Replace park_timeout(50µs) with park() in wait_while_suspended
- Remove redundant self-suspension in attach_thread and detach_thread;
the STW controller handles DETACHED→SUSPENDED via park_detached_threads
- Add double-check under mutex before condvar wait to prevent lost wakes
- Remove dead stats_detach_wait_yields field and add_detach_wait_yields
* Representable for ThreadHandle
* Set ThreadHandle state to Running in parent thread after spawn
Like CPython's ThreadHandle_start, set RUNNING state in the parent
thread immediately after spawn() succeeds, rather than in the child.
This eliminates a race where join() could see Starting state if called
before the child thread executes.
Also reverts the macOS skip for test_start_new_thread_failed since the
root cause is fixed.
* Set ThreadHandle state to Running in parent thread after spawn
* Add debug_assert for thread state in start_the_world
* Unskip now-passing test_get_event_loop_thread and test_start_new_thread_at_finalization
* Wrap IO locks and file ops in allow_threads
Add lock_wrapped to ThreadMutex for detaching thread state
while waiting on contended locks. Use it for buffered and
text IO locks. Wrap FileIO read/write in allow_threads via
crt_fd to prevent STW hangs on blocking file operations.
* Use std::sync for thread start/ready events
Replace parking_lot Mutex/Condvar with std::sync (pthread-based)
for started_event and handle_ready_event. This prevents hangs
in forked children where parking_lot's global HASHTABLE may be
corrupted.
* Fix thread-safety in GC, type cache, and instruction cache
GC / refcount:
- Add safe_inc() check for strong()==0 in RefCount
- Add try_to_owned() to PyObject for atomic refcount acquire
- Replace strong_count()+to_owned() with try_to_owned() in GC
collection and weakref callback paths to prevent TOCTOU races
Type cache:
- Add proper SeqLock (sequence counter) to TypeCacheEntry
- Readers spin-wait on odd sequence, validate after read
- Writers bracket updates with begin_write/end_write
- Use try_to_owned + pointer revalidation on read path
- Call modified() BEFORE attribute modification in set_attr
Instruction cache:
- Add pointer_cache (AtomicUsize array) to CodeUnits for
single atomic pointer load/store (prevents torn reads)
- Add try_read_cached_descriptor with try_to_owned + pointer
and version revalidation after increment
- Add write_cached_descriptor with version-bracketed writes
RLock:
- Fix release() to check is_owned_by_current_thread
- Add _release_save/_acquire_restore methods
* Fix RLock _acquire_restore tuple handling and unxfail threading test
* Align type cache seqlock writer protocol with CPython
* RLock: use single parking_lot level, track recursion manually
Instead of calling lock()/unlock() N times for recursion depth N,
keep parking_lot at 1 level and manage the count ourselves.
This makes acquire/release O(1) and matches CPython's
_PyRecursiveMutex approach (lock once + set level directly).
* Add try_to_owned_from_ptr to avoid &PyObject on stale ptrs
Use addr_of! to access ref_count directly from a raw pointer
without forming &PyObject first. Applied in type cache and
instruction cache hit paths where the pointer may be stale.
* Fix CI: spelling typo and xfail flaky test_thread_safety
- Fix "minimising" -> "minimizing" for cspell
- xfail test_thread_safety: dict iteration races with
concurrent GC mutations in _finalizer_registry
* Downgraded skips in tests
* Fixed failing tests
* Fixed test_ftplib + test_socket + test_ssl + test_threaded_import failures
* Removed comments about which tests are run in which environment
* Addressed PR comments
* Annotated skips on failing tests
* Removed unneeded tests
* Removed unneeded sys import from test_ftplib
* Added annotation to test_ftplib
* Readded skipIf to test_cleanup_with_symlink_modes with a more general ENV_POLLUTING_TESTS_WINDOWS
* Addressed PR comments
* Made changes to minimize diff in PR
* Apply suggestion from @youknowone
