Python GIL 多线程机制（C source code)

最近阅读《Python源码剖析》对进程线程的封装解释：

GIL,Global Interpreter Lock，对于python的多线程机制非常重要，其如何实现的？代码中实现如下：

指向一个void*，C语言中的空指针类型可以指向任意类型。Python建立多线程环境的动作只会执行一次。

PyEval_InitThreads--》PyThread_allocate_lock创建GIL之后，当前线程开始遵守python的多线程机制，即任何调用Python C API之前需要先获得GIL.

也就是代码中PyThread_acquire_lock尝试获取GIL。

Linux下则使用互斥锁metux和lock机制，条件等待机制一起使用。

先由本线程调用status = pthread_mutex_lock( &thelock->mut )锁住，mutex保持锁定状态，并在线程挂起进入等待前解锁。

然后status = pthread_cond_wait(&thelock->lock_released,&thelock->mut);

之后status = pthread_mutex_unlock( &thelock->mut );

条件满足从而离开pthread_cond_wait()之前，mutex加锁，以加锁动作对应。

激发条件有两种形式，pthread_cond_signal()激活一个等待该条件的线程，存在多个等待线程时按入队顺序激活其中一个；而pthread_cond_broadcast()则激活所有等待线程。

python创建子线程过程：

多线程环境初始化之后，python开始创建底层平台的原生线程。主线程通过调用 thread_PyThread_start_new_thread-》PyThread_start_new_thread完成子线程的工作，返回子线程的ID。子线程的ID只有被激活才能从子线程中获取，因此主线程等待这个子线程的ID,一旦子线程设置好ID,就会设法唤醒主线程。至此，主线程和子线程开始分道扬镳。主线程在返回子线程ID之后，继续执行后续的字节码。

PyThread_start_new_thread传入的func是函数t_bootstrap,而arg则是bootstate结构体boot。而boot中保存着程序中所定义的线程信息。PyThread_start_new_thread首先将func和arg都打包到一个类型为callobj结构体中。

创建好子线程之后，其开始与主线程对GIL竞争。在t_bootstrap中调用PyEval_AcquireThread申请GIL，成功之后就申请到GIL,接下来子线程调用PyEval_CallObjectWithKeywords并最终调用我们熟悉的函数PyEval_EvalFrameEx，也就是python的字节码执行引擎。之后执行完毕，进行清理扫尾工作PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent释放GIL。

　 t_bootstrap 看上去似乎子线程一直执行到释放GIL，他们是如何激活多线程机制的呢?答案在于函数PyEval_EvalFrameEx中，python内部维护的模拟中断时钟不断激活线程的调度机制，从而实现子线程和主线程的切换。

执行秩序： thread_PyThread_start_new_thread-》PyThread_start_new_thread-》bootstrap--》t_bootstrap

t_bootstrap 代码：

static void
t_bootstrap(void *boot_raw)
{
    struct bootstate *boot = (struct bootstate *) boot_raw;
    PyThreadState *tstate;
    PyObject *res;

    tstate = boot->tstate;
    tstate->thread_id = PyThread_get_thread_ident();
    _PyThreadState_Init(tstate);
    PyEval_AcquireThread(tstate);
    nb_threads++;
    res = PyEval_CallObjectWithKeywords(
        boot->func, boot->args, boot->keyw);
    if (res == NULL) {
        if (PyErr_ExceptionMatches(PyExc_SystemExit))
            PyErr_Clear();
        else {
            PyObject *file;
            PyObject *exc, *value, *tb;
            PyErr_Fetch(&exc, &value, &tb);
            PySys_WriteStderr(
                "Unhandled exception in thread started by ");
            file = PySys_GetObject("stderr");
            if (file)
                PyFile_WriteObject(boot->func, file, 0);
            else
                PyObject_Print(boot->func, stderr, 0);
            PySys_WriteStderr("
");
            PyErr_Restore(exc, value, tb);
            PyErr_PrintEx(0);
        }
    }
    else
        Py_DECREF(res);
    Py_DECREF(boot->func);
    Py_DECREF(boot->args);
    Py_XDECREF(boot->keyw);
    PyMem_DEL(boot_raw);
    nb_threads--;
    PyThreadState_Clear(tstate);
    PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent();
    PyThread_exit_thread();
