/*
   Notes about the implementation:

   - The GIL is just a boolean variable (locked) whose access is protected
     by a mutex (gil_mutex), and whose changes are signalled by a condition
     variable (gil_cond). gil_mutex is taken for short periods of time,
     and therefore mostly uncontended.

   - In the GIL-holding thread, the main loop (PyEval_EvalFrameEx) must be
     able to release the GIL on demand by another thread. A volatile boolean
     variable (gil_drop_request) is used for that purpose, which is checked
     at every turn of the eval loop. That variable is set after a wait of
     `interval` microseconds on `gil_cond` has timed out.

      [Actually, another volatile boolean variable (eval_breaker) is used
       which ORs several conditions into one. Volatile booleans are
       sufficient as inter-thread signalling means since Python is run
       on cache-coherent architectures only.]

   - A thread wanting to take the GIL will first let pass a given amount of
     time (`interval` microseconds) before setting gil_drop_request. This
     encourages a defined switching period, but doesn't enforce it since
     opcodes can take an arbitrary time to execute.

     The `interval` value is available for the user to read and modify
     using the Python API `sys.{get,set}switchinterval()`.

   - When a thread releases the GIL and gil_drop_request is set, that thread
     ensures that another GIL-awaiting thread gets scheduled.
     It does so by waiting on a condition variable (switch_cond) until
     the value of last_holder is changed to something else than its
     own thread state pointer, indicating that another thread was able to
     take the GIL.

     This is meant to prohibit the latency-adverse behaviour on multi-core
     machines where one thread would speculatively release the GIL, but still
     run and end up being the first to re-acquire it, making the "timeslices"
     much longer than expected.
     (Note: this mechanism is enabled with FORCE_SWITCHING above)

/* Mechanism whereby asynchronously executing callbacks (e.g. UNIX
   signal handlers or Mac I/O completion routines) can schedule calls
   to a function to be called synchronously.
   The synchronous function is called with one void* argument.
   It should return 0 for success or -1 for failure -- failure should
   be accompanied by an exception.

   If registry succeeds, the registry function returns 0; if it fails
   (e.g. due to too many pending calls) it returns -1 (without setting
   an exception condition).

   Note that because registry may occur from within signal handlers,
   or other asynchronous events, calling malloc() is unsafe!

   Any thread can schedule pending calls, but only the main thread
   will execute them.
   There is no facility to schedule calls to a particular thread, but
   that should be easy to change, should that ever be required.  In
   that case, the static variables here should go into the python
   threadstate.

/* Do periodic things, like check for signals and async I/0.
* We need to do reasonably frequently, but not too frequently.
* All loops should include a check of the eval breaker.
* We also check on return from any builtin function.
*
* ## More Details ###
*
* The eval loop (this function) normally executes the instructions
* of a code object sequentially.  However, the runtime supports a
* number of out-of-band execution scenarios that may pause that
* sequential execution long enough to do that out-of-band work
* in the current thread using the current PyThreadState.
*
* The scenarios include:
*
*  - cyclic garbage collection
*  - GIL drop requests
*  - "async" exceptions
*  - "pending calls"  (some only in the main thread)
*  - signal handling (only in the main thread)
*
* When the need for one of the above is detected, the eval loop
* pauses long enough to handle the detected case.  Then, if doing
* so didn't trigger an exception, the eval loop resumes executing
* the sequential instructions.
*
* To make this work, the eval loop periodically checks if any
* of the above needs to happen.  The individual checks can be
* expensive if computed each time, so a while back we switched
* to using pre-computed, per-interpreter variables for the checks,
* and later consolidated that to a single "eval breaker" variable
* (now a PyInterpreterState field).
*
* For the longest time, the eval breaker check would happen
* frequently, every 5 or so times through the loop, regardless
* of what instruction ran last or what would run next.  Then, in
* early 2021 (gh-18334, commit 4958f5d), we switched to checking
* the eval breaker less frequently, by hard-coding the check to
* specific places in the eval loop (e.g. certain instructions).
* The intent then was to check after returning from calls
* and on the back edges of loops.
*
* In addition to being more efficient, that approach keeps
* the eval loop from running arbitrary code between instructions
* that don't handle that well.  (See gh-74174.)
*
* Currently, the eval breaker check happens on back edges in
* the control flow graph, which pretty much applies to all loops,
* and most calls.
* (See bytecodes.c for exact information.)
*
* One consequence of this approach is that it might not be obvious
* how to force any specific thread to pick up the eval breaker,
* or for any specific thread to not pick it up.  Mostly this
* involves judicious uses of locks and careful ordering of code,
* while avoiding code that might trigger the eval breaker
* until so desired.
