Keep Track of Where Each Python Thread Was Started

Feature or enhancement

Proposal:

Debugging threads can be tricky. One thing that could sometimes help would be knowing where Thread.start() was called. We could achieve this by capturing the traceback of the call and attaching it to the thread. We probably wouldn't want to keep the actual traceback, due to how that would leak all the frames, etc. Instead, we'd probably want to use traceback.TracebackSummary or perhaps even something more lightweight. (FYI, there are other places where such a lightweight traceback snapshot would be useful.)

FWIW, the same sort of tracking might be helpful for coroutines (asyncio), though this is partly addressed by https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/124640.

Has this already been discussed elsewhere?

Commencez par lire le point d’entrée Thread.start() et traceback.TracebackSummary afin de comprendre les limites proposées pour la capture et le stockage. Définissez la conception avec les mainteneurs de threading, puis ajoutez des tests montrant qu’un thread enregistre l’endroit où il a été démarré sans conserver de frames de traceback actifs.
