Describe what happened:
Environments:
On MacOS (Catalina Version 10.15.4)
Python3.7.6
Go1.13.8
I want to use go-python3 to invoke an algorithm written in Python3, but as described, an fatal error will generated when the second time I invoke this algorithm. From the output message, it seems that PyImport_ImportModule causes this error.

fatal error: unexpected signal during runtime execution
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0xa pc=0x91256a3]

Here is the sample code.
A wrapper of PyImport_ImportModule:

// ImportModule will import python module from given directory
func ImportModule(dir, name string) *python3.PyObject {
	fmt.Println("python3.PyImport_ImportModule before")
	sysModule := python3.PyImport_ImportModule("sys") // import sys
	fmt.Println("python3.PyImport_ImportModule success")
	path := sysModule.GetAttrString("path")           // path = sys.path
	ob := python3.PyList_GetItem(path, 1)
	fmt.Println("check:", python3.PyUnicode_Check(ob))
	fmt.Println("path:", python3.PyUnicode_AsUTF8(ob))
	fmt.Println("sysModule.GetAttrString success")
	python3.PyList_Insert(path, 0, python3.PyUnicode_FromString("/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7/site-packages"))
	python3.PyList_Insert(path, 0, python3.PyUnicode_FromString(dir))
	fmt.Println("After module insert:", python3.PyUnicode_AsUTF8(python3.PyList_GetItem(path, 0)))
	fmt.Println("module name:", name)
	return python3.PyImport_ImportModule(name) 
}

Each time the algorithm is called in a goroutine.

func CalcPre(dataFilePath string) (sbpI int, dbpI int) {
	python3.Py_Initialize()
	if !python3.Py_IsInitialized() {
		fmt.Println("Error initializing the python interpreter")
		os.Exit(1)
	}
	gstate = python3.PyGILState_Ensure()
	fmt.Println("Py_Initialize success")
	vbp := ImportModule("/Users/zhao/Desktop/lab/ppython", "value_bp")
	fmt.Println("ImportModule success")

	b := vbp.GetAttrString("estimate")
	fmt.Printf("[FUNC] b = %#v\n", b)
	bArgs := python3.PyTuple_New(1)
	python3.PyTuple_SetItem(bArgs, 0, python3.PyUnicode_FromString(dataFilePath))
	re := b.Call(bArgs, python3.Py_None)
	sbp := python3.PyTuple_GetItem(re, 0)
	dbp := python3.PyTuple_GetItem(re, 1)
	defer func() {
		python3.Py_Finalize()
		fmt.Println("python3.Py_Finalize()")
	}()
	sbpI = python3.PyLong_AsLong(sbp)
	dbpI = python3.PyLong_AsLong(dbp)
	python3.PyGILState_Release(gstate)
	return
}

func Calc(dataFilePath string) {
    CalcPre(dataFilePath)
}

Sample caller like this: go Calc("aaa.csv").

Describe what you expected:
We can call go Calc() many times without a fatal error.

Steps to reproduce the issue:
Use the code above and environments above, put these code into a goroutine, like go Calc("aaa.csv").For simplicity, you may just remove the algorithm part and just have the skeleton remained.

Every thing is fine when go Calc("aaa.csv") called the first time. But the fatal error emits the second time when go Calc("aaa.csv") is called.

I haven't looked at your code in detail, but one thing I've noticed is the absence of any <PyObject>.DecRef() calls. Python objects referenced in Go should get decref'ed when they're no longer needed (i.e. bArgs.DecRef()).

It seems we could only PyImport_ImportModule some module for only one time. And even after that, calling functions in multiple goroutines still hit similar problems.

Hello, do you have a solution to this problem?

maybe as a starting point:

  • here's an example for creating a Go function around a Python function that you can loop over (= it works a second time): code / explanation
  • if you add locking and releasing the GIL and locking the thread to it you should be able to use it in a go routine. Here's a example (it uses the sbinet/go-python instead of datadog/go-python3 but you get the idea). code / explanation
