Monitoring C API
****************

Added in version 3.13.

An extension may need to interact with the event monitoring system.
Subscribing to events and registering callbacks can be done via the
Python API exposed in "sys.monitoring".


Generating Execution Events
***************************

The functions below make it possible for an extension to fire
monitoring events as it emulates the execution of Python code. Each of
these functions accepts a "PyMonitoringState" struct which contains
concise information about the activation state of events, as well as
the event arguments, which include a "PyObject*" representing the code
object, the instruction offset and sometimes additional, event-
specific arguments (see "sys.monitoring" for details about the
signatures of the different event callbacks). The "codelike" argument
should be an instance of "types.CodeType" or of a type that emulates
it.

The VM disables tracing when firing an event, so there is no need for
user code to do that.

Monitoring functions should not be called with an exception set,
except those listed below as working with the current exception.

type PyMonitoringState

   Representation of the state of an event type. It is allocated by
   the user while its contents are maintained by the monitoring API
   functions described below.

All of the functions below return 0 on success and -1 (with an
exception set) on error.

See "sys.monitoring" for descriptions of the events.

   Fire a "PY_RETURN" event.

int PyMonitoring_FirePyYieldEvent(PyMonitoringState *state, PyObject *codelike, int32_t offset, PyObject *retval)

   Fire a "PY_YIELD" event.

   Fire a "C_RETURN" event.

int PyMonitoring_FirePyThrowEvent(PyMonitoringState *state, PyObject *codelike, int32_t offset)

   Fire a "PY_THROW" event with the current exception (as returned by
   "PyErr_GetRaisedException()").

int PyMonitoring_FireRaiseEvent(PyMonitoringState *state, PyObject *codelike, int32_t offset)

   Fire a "RAISE" event with the current exception (as returned by
   "PyErr_GetRaisedException()").

int PyMonitoring_FireCRaiseEvent(PyMonitoringState *state, PyObject *codelike, int32_t offset)

   Fire a "C_RAISE" event with the current exception (as returned by
   "PyErr_GetRaisedException()").

int PyMonitoring_FireReraiseEvent(PyMonitoringState *state, PyObject *codelike, int32_t offset)

   "PyErr_GetRaisedException()").

int PyMonitoring_FireStopIterationEvent(PyMonitoringState *state, PyObject *codelike, int32_t offset, PyObject *value)

   Fire a "STOP_ITERATION" event. If "value" is an instance of
   "StopIteration", it is used. Otherwise, a new "StopIteration"
   instance is created with "value" as its argument.


Managing the Monitoring State
=============================

Monitoring states can be managed with the help of monitoring scopes. A
scope would typically correspond to a Python function.

int PyMonitoring_EnterScope(PyMonitoringState *state_array, uint64_t *version, const uint8_t *event_types, Py_ssize_t length)

   Enter a monitored scope. "event_types" is an array of the event IDs
   for events that may be fired from the scope. For example, the ID of
   a "PY_START" event is the value "PY_MONITORING_EVENT_PY_START",
   which is numerically equal to the base-2 logarithm of
   "sys.monitoring.events.PY_START". "state_array" is an array with a
   monitoring state entry for each event in "event_types", it is
   allocated by the user but populated by "PyMonitoring_EnterScope()"
   with information about the activation state of the event. The size
   of "event_types" (and hence also of "state_array") is given in
   "length".

   The "version" argument is a pointer to a value which should be
   allocated by the user together with "state_array" and initialized
   to 0, and then set only by "PyMonitoring_EnterScope()" itself. It
   allows this function to determine whether event states have changed
   since the previous call, and to return quickly if they have not.

   The scopes referred to here are lexical scopes: a function, class
   or method. "PyMonitoring_EnterScope()" should be called whenever
   the lexical scope is entered. Scopes can be reentered, reusing the
   same *state_array* and *version*, in situations like when emulating
   a recursive Python function. When a code-like's execution is
   paused, such as when emulating a generator, the scope needs to be
   exited and re-entered.

   The macros for *event_types* are:
