[Python-Dev] Py_DECREF(m) on PyInit_xxx() failure?

2017年11月30日 07:46:15 -0800

Hi,
CPython has many C extensions with non-trivial PyInit_xxx() functions
which has to handle failures. A few modules use "Py_DECREF(m); retutrn
NULL;", but most functions only do "return NULL;". Is it a reference
leak or not?
Example from Modules/posixmodule.c:
 v = convertenviron();
 Py_XINCREF(v);
 if (v == NULL || PyModule_AddObject(m, "environ", v) != 0)
 return NULL;
 Py_DECREF(v);
Does this code leak a reference on m? ... Oh, and maybe also leaks a
reference on v?
