Bug description:

Hello,

Prior 3.13 it was possible to set a trace in a specific thread from another thread by leveraging _PyEval_SetTrace, with pure Python. Now one can either set a trace for the current thread or all the threads using PyEval_SetTrace or PyEval_SetTraceAllThreads.
The change:
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/108433/files#diff-9e7eb7e81667528dfa3a35bbf32fe622d4721c3c71385ea0ea2250abbd15d545R21
Interestingly, the profiling counterpart seems to be still available in the C API.

The use case I am interested in is a dedicated monitoring thread connected to a distributed observability system. This thread itself should not be traced as it manages tracing for the rest of the process.

Would it be possible to reinstate _PyEval_SetTrace back to the private C API?

Also, the new sys.monitoring module seems to offer a more high-level interface for debuggers and profilers, but it is unclear whether it is possible to limit the events to a certain thread. (unless of course one checks every event which does not seem efficient).

Alternatively, would writing an extension to expose this function be a better approach?

I would greatly appreciate any comments or suggestions regarding this. Thank you!

從這裡開始

  1. 先讀完整個 Issue,再讀專案的貢獻指南。
  2. 在 Issue 下留言說明你要接手 —— 這能避免兩個人做同樣的事。
  3. Fork 儲存庫,在一個分支上完成修改。
  4. 送出 Pull Request,並在描述裡引用這個 Issue 編號。

研究方向

審查 PR 108433 中描述的移除,並將現有的 PyEval_SetTrace 和 PyEval_SetTraceAllThreads API 與所要求的逐執行緒行為進行比較。接著調查 sys.monitoring 是否能將事件限定在單一執行緒,以及 extension 是否是適當的替代方案。完成的標準是確立明確的 API 方向,並取得 maintainer 對重新加入或採用其他受支援方法的共識。
