Hi Stefan,
There's no reason it would require wrapped arguments.
that completely depends on how it is generated, of course, and in the context
of calls within Python (pypy-c), it makes sense to have the entry point of
the function expect wrapped arguments, and have the exit point re-wrap.
The input types are
known from the static low-level function type, so the JIT compiler can just
work with them and adapt the function that is being called.
Yes, except that the above only follows after this:
These things are trickier in a non-JIT environment, but we are currently
working on a general framework to support low-level calls through the
CPython ecosystem (I mentioned that before).
I.e., there should first be a good method of delivering the low-level info.
Right now, that delivery method is the act of unwrapping itself (that is,
the wrapped types carry the low-level info).
Best regards,
Wim
