Memory leak in _PyJit_TryInitializeTracing when daemon thread exits #144068
Description
Bug report
Bug description:
import threading
import time
def hot_loop():
# A hot loop involving function calls (time.time) to trigger
# Tier 2 JIT optimization.
# We run this long enough to ensure it's active during interpreter shutdown.
end = time.time() + 5.0
while time.time() < end:
pass
# 1. Create a daemon thread (crucial: daemon threads are killed/abandoned at shutdown)
t = threading.Thread(target=hot_loop, daemon=True)
t.start()
# 2. Allow brief time for the thread to start and trigger the JIT (Trace/Optimizer)
time.sleep(0.1)
# 3. Exit immediately.
# The daemon thread is still running. The interpreter shutdown process
# appears to fail to free the JIT memory allocated for this thread.=================================================================
