# Interpreter initialization and finalization

See Python Initialization Configuration for details on how to configure the interpreter prior to initialization.

## Before Python initialization

In an application embedding Python, the `Py_Initialize()` function must be called before using any other Python/C API functions; with the exception of a few functions and the global configuration variables.

The following functions can be safely called before Python is initialized:

- Functions that initialize the interpreter:

  - `Py_Initialize()`

  - `Py_InitializeEx()`

  - `Py_InitializeFromConfig()`

  - `Py_BytesMain()`

  - `Py_Main()`

  - the runtime pre-initialization functions covered in Python Initialization Configuration

- Fungsi konfigurasi:

  - `PyImport_AppendInittab()`

  - `PyImport_ExtendInittab()`

  - `PyInitFrozenExtensions()`

  - `PyMem_SetAllocator()`

  - `PyMem_SetupDebugHooks()`

  - `PyObject_SetArenaAllocator()`

  - `Py_SetProgramName()`

  - `Py_SetPythonHome()`

  - the configuration functions covered in Python Initialization Configuration

- Fungsi informatif:

  - `Py_IsInitialized()`

  - `PyMem_GetAllocator()`

  - `PyObject_GetArenaAllocator()`

  - `Py_GetBuildInfo()`

  - `Py_GetCompiler()`

  - `Py_GetCopyright()`

  - `Py_GetPlatform()`

  - `Py_GetVersion()`

  - `Py_IsInitialized()`

- Utilities:

  - `Py_DecodeLocale()`

  - the status reporting and utility functions covered in Python Initialization Configuration

- Memory allocators:

  - `PyMem_RawMalloc()`

  - `PyMem_RawRealloc()`

  - `PyMem_RawCalloc()`

  - `PyMem_RawFree()`

- Synchronization:

  - `PyMutex_Lock()`

  - `PyMutex_Unlock()`

Catatan

Despite their apparent similarity to some of the functions listed above, the following functions should not be called before the interpreter has been initialized: `Py_EncodeLocale()`, `PyEval_InitThreads()`, and `Py_RunMain()`.

## Global configuration variables

Python has variables for the global configuration to control different features and options. By default, these flags are controlled by command line options.

When a flag is set by an option, the value of the flag is the number of times that the option was set. For example, `-b` sets `Py_BytesWarningFlag` to 1 and `-bb` sets `Py_BytesWarningFlag` to 2.

int Py_BytesWarningFlag

  This API is kept for backward compatibility: setting `PyConfig.bytes_warning` should be used instead, see Python Initialization Configuration.

  Issue a warning when comparing `bytes` or `bytearray` with `str` or `bytes` with `int`. Issue an error if greater or equal to `2`.

  Set by the `-b` option.

## Initializing and finalizing the interpreter

void Py_Initialize()
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  Initialize the Python interpreter. In an application embedding Python, this should be called before using any other Python/C API functions; see Before Python Initialization for the few exceptions.

  This initializes the table of loaded modules (`sys.modules`), and creates the fundamental modules `builtins`, `__main__` and `sys`. It also initializes the module search path (`sys.path`). It does not set `sys.argv`; use the Python Initialization Configuration API for that. This is a no-op when called for a second time (without calling `Py_FinalizeEx()` first). There is no return value; it is a fatal error if the initialization fails.

  Use `Py_InitializeFromConfig()` to customize the Python Initialization Configuration.

  Catatan

  On Windows, changes the console mode from `O_TEXT` to `O_BINARY`, which will also affect non-Python uses of the console using the C Runtime.

void Py_InitializeEx(int initsigs)
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  This function works like `Py_Initialize()` if initsigs is `1`. If initsigs is `0`, it skips initialization registration of signal handlers, which may be useful when CPython is embedded as part of a larger application.

  Use `Py_InitializeFromConfig()` to customize the Python Initialization Configuration.

PyStatus Py_InitializeFromConfig(const PyConfig *config)

  Initialize Python from config configuration, as described in Initialization with PyConfig.

  See the Python Initialization Configuration section for details on pre-initializing the interpreter, populating the runtime configuration structure, and querying the returned status structure.

int Py_IsInitialized()
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  Return true (nonzero) when the Python interpreter has been initialized, false (zero) if not. After `Py_FinalizeEx()` is called, this returns false until `Py_Initialize()` is called again.

  Berubah pada versi 3.15: This function no longer returns true until initialization has fully completed, including import of the `site` module. Previously it could return true while `Py_Initialize()` was still running.

int Py_IsFinalizing()
  Part of the Stable ABI since version 3.13.

  Return true (non-zero) if the main Python interpreter is shutting down. Return false (zero) otherwise.

  Added in version 3.13.

int Py_FinalizeEx()
  Part of the Stable ABI since version 3.6.

  Undo all initializations made by `Py_Initialize()` and subsequent use of Python/C API functions, and destroy all sub-interpreters (see `Py_NewInterpreter()` below) that were created and not yet destroyed since the last call to `Py_Initialize()`. This is a no-op when called for a second time (without calling `Py_Initialize()` again first).

  Since this is the reverse of `Py_Initialize()`, it should be called in the same thread with the same interpreter active. That means the main thread and the main interpreter. This should never be called while `Py_RunMain()` is running.

  Normally the return value is `0`. If there were errors during finalization (flushing buffered data), `-1` is returned.

  Note that Python will do a best effort at freeing all memory allocated by the Python interpreter. Therefore, any C-Extension should make sure to correctly clean up all of the previously allocated PyObjects before using them in subsequent calls to `Py_Initialize()`. Otherwise it could introduce vulnerabilities and incorrect behavior.

  This function is provided for a number of reasons. An embedding application might want to restart Python without having to restart the application itself. An application that has loaded the Python interpreter from a dynamically loadable library (or DLL) might want to free all memory allocated by Python before unloading the DLL. During a hunt for memory leaks in an application a developer might want to free all memory allocated by Python before exiting from the application.

  Bugs and caveats: The destruction of modules and objects in modules is done in random order; this may cause destructors (`__del__()` methods) to fail when they depend on other objects (even functions) or modules. Dynamically loaded extension modules loaded by Python are not unloaded. Small amounts of memory allocated by the Python interpreter may not be freed (if you find a leak, please report it). Memory tied up in circular references between objects is not freed. Interned strings will all be deallocated regardless of their reference count. Some memory allocated by extension modules may not be freed. Some extensions may not work properly if their initialization routine is called more than once; this can happen if an application calls `Py_Initialize()` and `Py_FinalizeEx()` more than once. `Py_FinalizeEx()` must not be called recursively from within itself. Therefore, it must not be called by any code that may be run as part of the interpreter shutdown process, such as `atexit` handlers, object finalizers, or any code that may be run while flushing the stdout and stderr files.

  Raises an auditing event `cpython._PySys_ClearAuditHooks` with no arguments.

  Added in version 3.6.

void Py_Finalize()
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  This is a backwards-compatible version of `Py_FinalizeEx()` that disregards the return value.

int Py_BytesMain(int argc, char **argv)
  Part of the Stable ABI since version 3.8.

  Similar to `Py_Main()` but argv is an array of bytes strings, allowing the calling application to delegate the text decoding step to the CPython runtime.

  Added in version 3.8.

int Py_Main(int argc, wchar_t **argv)
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  The main program for the standard interpreter, encapsulating a full initialization/finalization cycle, as well as additional behaviour to implement reading configurations settings from the environment and command line, and then executing `__main__` in accordance with Baris perintah.

  This is made available for programs which wish to support the full CPython command line interface, rather than just embedding a Python runtime in a larger application.

  The argc and argv parameters are similar to those which are passed to a C program's `main()` function, except that the argv entries are first converted to `wchar_t` using `Py_DecodeLocale()`. It is also important to note that the argument list entries may be modified to point to strings other than those passed in (however, the contents of the strings pointed to by the argument list are not modified).

  The return value is `2` if the argument list does not represent a valid Python command line, and otherwise the same as `Py_RunMain()`.

  In terms of the CPython runtime configuration APIs documented in the runtime configuration section (and without accounting for error handling), `Py_Main` is approximately equivalent to:

      PyConfig config;
      PyConfig_InitPythonConfig(&config);
      PyConfig_SetArgv(&config, argc, argv);
      Py_InitializeFromConfig(&config);
      PyConfig_Clear(&config);

      Py_RunMain();

  In normal usage, an embedding application will call this function instead of calling `Py_Initialize()`, `Py_InitializeEx()` or `Py_InitializeFromConfig()` directly, and all settings will be applied as described elsewhere in this documentation. If this function is instead called after a preceding runtime initialization API call, then exactly which environmental and command line configuration settings will be updated is version dependent (as it depends on which settings correctly support being modified after they have already been set once when the runtime was first initialized).

int Py_RunMain(void)

  Executes the main module in a fully configured CPython runtime.

  Executes the command (`PyConfig.run_command`), the script (`PyConfig.run_filename`) or the module (`PyConfig.run_module`) specified on the command line or in the configuration. If none of these values are set, runs the interactive Python prompt (REPL) using the `__main__` module's global namespace.

  If `PyConfig.inspect` is not set (the default), the return value will be `0` if the interpreter exits normally (that is, without raising an exception), the exit status of an unhandled `SystemExit`, or `1` for any other unhandled exception.

  If `PyConfig.inspect` is set (such as when the `-i` option is used), rather than returning when the interpreter exits, execution will instead resume in an interactive Python prompt (REPL) using the `__main__` module's global namespace. If the interpreter exited with an exception, it is immediately raised in the REPL session. The function return value is then determined by the way the REPL session terminates: `0`, `1`, or the status of a `SystemExit`, as specified above.

  This function always finalizes the Python interpreter before it returns.

  See Python Configuration for an example of a customized Python that always runs in isolated mode using `Py_RunMain()`.

int PyUnstable_AtExit(PyInterpreterState *interp, void (*func)(void*), void *data)
  This is Unstable API. It may change without warning in minor releases.

  Register an `atexit` callback for the target interpreter interp. This is similar to `Py_AtExit()`, but takes an explicit interpreter and data pointer for the callback.

  There must be an attached thread state for interp.

  Added in version 3.13.

## Cautions regarding interpreter finalization

In the late stage of interpreter shutdown, after attempting to wait for non-daemon threads to exit (though this can be interrupted by `KeyboardInterrupt`) and running the `atexit` functions, the runtime is marked as finalizing, meaning that `Py_IsFinalizing()` and `sys.is_finalizing()` return true. At this point, only the finalization thread (the thread that initiated finalization; this is typically the main thread) is allowed to attach a thread state.

Other threads that attempt to attach during finalization, either explicitly (such as via `PyThreadState_Ensure()` or `Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS`) or implicitly (such as in-between bytecode instructions), will enter a permanently blocked state. Generally, this is harmless, but this can result in deadlocks. For example, a thread may be permanently blocked while holding a lock, meaning that the finalization thread can never acquire that lock.

Prior to CPython 3.13, the thread would exit instead of hanging, which led to other issues (see the warning note at `PyThread_exit_thread()`).

Gross? Yes. Starting in Python 3.15, there are a number of C APIs that make it possible to avoid these issues by temporarily preventing finalization:

PEP 788 explains the design, motivation and rationale for these APIs.

type PyInterpreterGuard
  Part of the Stable ABI (as an opaque struct) since version 3.15.

  An opaque interpreter guard structure.

  By holding an interpreter guard, the caller can ensure that the interpreter will not finalize until the guard is closed (through `PyInterpreterGuard_Close()`).

  When a guard is held, a thread attempting to finalize the interpreter will block until the guard is closed before starting finalization. After finalization has started, threads are forever unable to acquire guards for that interpreter. This means that if you forget to close an interpreter guard, the process will permanently hang during finalization!

  Holding a guard for an interpreter is similar to holding a strong reference to a Python object, except finalization does not happen automatically after all guards are released: it requires an explicit `Py_EndInterpreter()` call.

  Added in version 3.15.

PyInterpreterGuard *PyInterpreterGuard_FromCurrent(void)
  Part of the Stable ABI since version 3.15.

  Create a finalization guard for the current interpreter. This will prevent finalization until the guard is closed.

  Sebagai contoh:

      // Temporarily prevent finalization.
      PyInterpreterGuard *guard = PyInterpreterGuard_FromCurrent();
      if (guard == NULL) {
         // Finalization has already started or we're out of memory.
         return NULL;
      }

      Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS;
      // Do some critical processing here. For example, we can safely acquire
      // locks that might be acquired by the finalization thread.
      Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS;

      // Now that we're done with our critical processing, the interpreter is
      // allowed to finalize again.
      PyInterpreterGuard_Close(guard);

  On success, this function returns a guard for the current interpreter; on failure, it returns `NULL` with an exception set.

  This function will fail only if the current interpreter has already started finalizing, or if the process is out of memory.

  The guard pointer returned by this function must be eventually closed with `PyInterpreterGuard_Close()`; failing to do so will result in the Python process infinitely hanging.

  The caller must hold an attached thread state.

  Added in version 3.15.

PyInterpreterGuard *PyInterpreterGuard_FromView(PyInterpreterView *view)
  Part of the Stable ABI since version 3.15.

  Create a finalization guard for an interpreter through a view.

  On success, this function returns a guard to the interpreter represented by view. The view is still valid after calling this function. The guard must eventually be closed with `PyInterpreterGuard_Close()`.

  If the interpreter no longer exists, is already finalizing, or out of memory, then this function returns `NULL` without setting an exception.

  The caller does not need to hold an attached thread state.

  Added in version 3.15.

void PyInterpreterGuard_Close(PyInterpreterGuard *guard)
  Part of the Stable ABI since version 3.15.

  Close an interpreter guard, allowing the interpreter to start finalization if no other guards remain. If an interpreter guard is never closed, the interpreter will infinitely wait when trying to enter finalization!

  After an interpreter guard is closed, it may not be used in `PyThreadState_Ensure()`. Doing so will result in undefined behavior.

  This function cannot fail, and the caller doesn't need to hold an attached thread state.

  Added in version 3.15.

## Interpreter views

In some cases, it may be necessary to access an interpreter that may have been deleted. This can be done using interpreter views.

type PyInterpreterView
  Part of the Stable ABI (as an opaque struct) since version 3.15.

  An opaque view of an interpreter.

  This is a thread-safe way to access an interpreter that may have be finalizing or already destroyed.

  Added in version 3.15.

PyInterpreterView *PyInterpreterView_FromCurrent(void)
  Part of the Stable ABI since version 3.15.

  Create a view to the current interpreter.

  This function is generally meant to be used alongside `PyInterpreterGuard_FromView()` or `PyThreadState_EnsureFromView()`.

  On success, this function returns a view to the current interpreter; on failure, it returns `NULL` with an exception set.

  The caller must hold an attached thread state.

  Added in version 3.15.

void PyInterpreterView_Close(PyInterpreterView *view)
  Part of the Stable ABI since version 3.15.

  Close an interpreter view.

  If an interpreter view is never closed, the view's memory will never be freed, but there are no other consequences. (In contrast, forgetting to close a guard will infinitely hang the main thread during finalization.)

  This function cannot fail, and the caller doesn't need to hold an attached thread state.

  Added in version 3.15.

PyInterpreterView *PyInterpreterView_FromMain(void)
  Part of the Stable ABI since version 3.15.

  Create a view for the main interpreter (the first and default interpreter in a Python process; see `PyInterpreterState_Main()`).

  On success, this function returns a view to the main interpreter; on failure, it returns `NULL` without an exception set. Failure indicates that the process is out of memory.

  Use this function when an interpreter pointer or view cannot be supplied by the caller, such as when a native threading library does not provide a `void *arg` parameter that could carry a `PyInterpreterGuard` or `PyInterpreterView`. In code that supports subinterpreters, prefer `PyInterpreterView_FromCurrent()` so the guard tracks the calling interpreter rather than the main one.

  The caller does not need to hold an attached thread state.

  Added in version 3.15.

## Process-wide parameters

void Py_SetProgramName(const wchar_t *name)
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  This API is kept for backward compatibility: setting `PyConfig.program_name` should be used instead, see Python Initialization Configuration.

  This function should be called before `Py_Initialize()` is called for the first time, if it is called at all. It tells the interpreter the value of the `argv[0]` argument to the `main()` function of the program (converted to wide characters). This is used by some other functions below to find the Python run-time libraries relative to the interpreter executable. The default value is `'python'`. The argument should point to a zero-terminated wide character string in static storage whose contents will not change for the duration of the program's execution. No code in the Python interpreter will change the contents of this storage.

  Use `Py_DecodeLocale()` to decode a bytes string to get a wchar_t* string.

  Tidak digunakan lagi karena versi 3.11, akan dihapus dalam versi 3.16.

const char *Py_GetVersion()
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  Return the version of this Python interpreter. This is a string that looks something like

      "3.0a5+ (py3k:63103M, May 12 2008, 00:53:55) \n[GCC 4.2.3]"

  The first word (up to the first space character) is the current Python version; the first characters are the major and minor version separated by a period. The returned string points into static storage; the caller should not modify its value. The value is available to Python code as `sys.version`.

  Lihat juga konstanta `Py_Version`.

const char *Py_GetPlatform()
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  Return the platform identifier for the current platform. On Unix, this is formed from the "official" name of the operating system, converted to lower case, followed by the major revision number; e.g., for Solaris 2.x, which is also known as SunOS 5.x, the value is `'sunos5'`. On macOS, it is `'darwin'`. On Windows, it is `'win'`. The returned string points into static storage; the caller should not modify its value. The value is available to Python code as `sys.platform`.

const char *Py_GetCopyright()
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  Return the official copyright string for the current Python version, for example

  `'Copyright 1991-1995 Stichting Mathematisch Centrum, Amsterdam'`

  The returned string points into static storage; the caller should not modify its value. The value is available to Python code as `sys.copyright`.

const char *Py_GetCompiler()
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  Return an indication of the compiler used to build the current Python version, in square brackets, for example:

      "[GCC 2.7.2.2]"

  The returned string points into static storage; the caller should not modify its value. The value is available to Python code as part of the variable `sys.version`.

const char *Py_GetBuildInfo()
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  Return information about the sequence number and build date and time of the current Python interpreter instance, for example

      "#67, Aug  1 1997, 22:34:28"

  The returned string points into static storage; the caller should not modify its value. The value is available to Python code as part of the variable `sys.version`.

void PySys_SetArgvEx(int argc, wchar_t **argv, int updatepath)
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  This API is kept for backward compatibility: setting `PyConfig.argv`, `PyConfig.parse_argv` and `PyConfig.safe_path` should be used instead, see Python Initialization Configuration.

  Set `sys.argv` based on argc and argv. These parameters are similar to those passed to the program's `main()` function with the difference that the first entry should refer to the script file to be executed rather than the executable hosting the Python interpreter. If there isn't a script that will be run, the first entry in argv can be an empty string. If this function fails to initialize `sys.argv`, a fatal condition is signalled using `Py_FatalError()`.

  If updatepath is zero, this is all the function does. If updatepath is non-zero, the function also modifies `sys.path` according to the following algorithm:

  - If the name of an existing script is passed in `argv[0]`, the absolute path of the directory where the script is located is prepended to `sys.path`.

  - Otherwise (that is, if argc is `0` or `argv[0]` doesn't point to an existing file name), an empty string is prepended to `sys.path`, which is the same as prepending the current working directory (`"."`).

  Use `Py_DecodeLocale()` to decode a bytes string to get a wchar_t* string.

  See also `PyConfig.orig_argv` and `PyConfig.argv` members of the Python Initialization Configuration.

  Catatan

  It is recommended that applications embedding the Python interpreter for purposes other than executing a single script pass `0` as updatepath, and update `sys.path` themselves if desired. See CVE 2008-5983.

  On versions before 3.1.3, you can achieve the same effect by manually popping the first `sys.path` element after having called `PySys_SetArgv()`, for example using:

      PyRun_SimpleString("import sys; sys.path.pop(0)\n");

  Added in version 3.1.3.

  Tidak digunakan lagi karena versi 3.11, akan dihapus dalam versi 3.16.

void PySys_SetArgv(int argc, wchar_t **argv)
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  This API is kept for backward compatibility: setting `PyConfig.argv` and `PyConfig.parse_argv` should be used instead, see Python Initialization Configuration.

  This function works like `PySys_SetArgvEx()` with updatepath set to `1` unless the python interpreter was started with the `-I`.

  Use `Py_DecodeLocale()` to decode a bytes string to get a wchar_t* string.

  See also `PyConfig.orig_argv` and `PyConfig.argv` members of the Python Initialization Configuration.

  Berubah pada versi 3.4: The updatepath value depends on `-I`.

  Tidak digunakan lagi karena versi 3.11, akan dihapus dalam versi 3.16.

void Py_SetPythonHome(const wchar_t *home)
  Part of the Stable ABI.

  This API is kept for backward compatibility: setting `PyConfig.home` should be used instead, see Python Initialization Configuration.

  Set the default "home" directory, that is, the location of the standard Python libraries. See `PYTHONHOME` for the meaning of the argument string.

  The argument should point to a zero-terminated character string in static storage whose contents will not change for the duration of the program's execution. No code in the Python interpreter will change the contents of this storage.

  Use `Py_DecodeLocale()` to decode a bytes string to get a wchar_t* string.
