gh-111569: Implement Python critical section API by colesbury · Pull Request #111571 · python/cpython
Critical sections are helpers to replace the global interpreter lock with finer grained locking. They provide similar guarantees to the GIL and avoid the deadlock risk that plain locking involves. Critical sections are implicitly ended whenever the GIL would be released. They are resumed when the GIL would be acquired. Nested critical sections behave as if the sections were interleaved.
