New submission from Itamar Ostricher <itamar...@gmail.com>:
CPython extensions providing optimized execution of Python bytecode (like [Cinder JIT](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1l8I-FDE1xrIShm9eSNJqsGmY_VanMDX5-aK_gujhYBI/edit#heading=h.ujldakarfxhh) and [Pyjion](https://github.com/tonybaloney/Pyjion)) can benefit from being able to modify the vectorcall field on instances of PyFunctionObject to allow calling the optimized path (e.g. JIT-compiled) directly. We propose adding an API to allow extensions to override this field: ``` void PyFunction_SetVectorcall(PyFunctionObject *func, vectorcallfunc vectorcall); ``` ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 414302 nosy: carljm, dino.viehland, itamaro priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Allow extensions to set the vectorcall field on instances of PyFunctionObject type: enhancement versions: Python 3.11 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46893> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
