It's part the documentation.
Ah, I'd missed that. Thanks for pointing it out. > > I'm not sure that I understood correctly. Do you agree to move "PyMem" > globals back to Objects/obmalloc.c? (to allow to call > PyMem_RawMalloc() before Py_Initialize()) I'm okay with that if we can't find another way. However, shouldn't we be able to statically initialize the raw allocator in _PyRuntime, much as we were doing before in obmalloc.c? I have a rough PR up: https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/4481 Also, I opened https://bugs.python.org/issue32096 for the regression. Thanks for bringing it up. -eric _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
