[Python-Dev] PEP 590: vectorcall without tp_call

2019年5月29日 05:37:39 -0700

Hello,
I have one implementation question about vectorcall which is not specified in PEP 590: what should happen if a type implements vectorcall (i.e. _Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_VECTORCALL is set) but doesn't set tp_call (i.e. tp_call == NULL)? I see the following possibilities: 1. Ignore this problem/assume that it won't happen. This would be bad, since callable(obj) would be False even though obj() would succeed.
2. Raise SystemError.
3. Automatically set tp_call to PyVectorcall_Call.
I would vote for 3 since it's the most user-friendly option. There is also no way how it could be wrong: it ensures that tp_call and vectorcall are consistent.
Any opinions?
Jeroen.
