gh-123022: Fix crash with Py_Initialize in background thread - #123052
Merged
Conversation
Check that the current default heap is initialized in `_mi_os_get_aligned_hint` and `mi_os_claim_huge_pages`. The mimalloc function `_mi_os_get_aligned_hint` assumes that there is an initialized default heap. This is true for our main thread, but not for background threads. The problematic code path is usually called during initialization (i.e., `Py_Initialize`), but it may also be called if the program allocates large amounts of memory in total. The crash only affected the free-threaded build.

@Yhg1s - I think it's worth considering this for 3.13rc2. Let me know what you think. |
