Christian Heimes added the comment:
In theory you are right. m->md_def could be NULL, too. But in practice it's
only going to happen when you have a faulty C extension. The code tries to load
a dynamic module (ELF shared library, Windows DLL, ...) with
_PyImport_GetDynLoadFunc() a couple of lines before PyModule_GetDef(). Any
invalid file is rejected:
>>> imp.load_dynamic("os", "Lib/os.py")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: Lib/os.py: invalid ELF header
But an extra check doesn't hurt. How do you like this?
def = PyModule_GetDef(m);
if (def == NULL) {
if (!PyErr_Occured()) {
/* m->md_def == NULL */
PyErr_BadArgument();
}
goto error;
}
