Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: I perhaps were overcautious. There is a difference between the case of deque and the case of lru_cache and OrderedDict. The latter creates Python object (PyDict_New) that can trigger garbage collecting, and the former calls only PyMem_Malloc. The latter can cause a crash in common use, and the former only with special memory allocation hooks (Victor, perhaps we should disable GC for executing hooks).
But my version of the patch solves not only this issue. It eliminates the use of possibly re-entrant alternate method. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25135> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
