[issue21387] Memory leaks when embedded interpreter is reinitialized

[Stefan Krah]

Stefan Krah added the comment:

I've run Evgeniy's example under Valgrind and changed it to import
various C extensions. Unfortunately they all leak more or less, so
perhaps we can revisit this when (if?) the PEP 3121 and PEP 384
changes have been implemented.

[issue21387] Memory leaks when embedded interpreter is reinitialized

[Evgeniy Stepanov]

New submission from Evgeniy Stepanov:

Following https://docs.python.org/2/c-api/init.html#Py_Finalize, I'm 
reinitializing embedded python interpreter multiple time in one process.

#include Python.h

void f() {
  Py_Initialize();
  PyRun_SimpleString(from time import time,ctime\n
  import datetime\n
  print 'Today is',ctime(time())\n);
  Py_Finalize();
}

int main(void) {
  for (int i = 0; i  30; ++i)
f();
  return 0;
}

I see 2 sources of memory leaks:

 * _once_registry is never teared down.

never destroys them

Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

Thanks. It would be nice if you could try the same with Python 3.4, or the 
development version.

Stefan Krah added the comment:

Are we fixing these on a case by case basis or is it hopeless (msg146615)?

I think fixing on a case by case is fine.
