As per https://docs.python.org/3/c-api/none.html, None has to be treated
exactly like other objects for reference counting.
So, when we use it, we need to INCREF and when we are done, DECREF
This patch must be backported as far as 2.0.
As per https://docs.python.org/3/c-api/object.html#c.PyObject_Call,
positional arguments should be an empty tuple when not used.
Previously the code had a dictionary instead of tuple. This commit is to
fix it and use tuple to avoid unexpected consequences
This patch must be backported as far as 2.0.
This change is to ensure objects from the ipaddress module are cleaned
up when spoa module initialization fails.
In general the interpreter would just crash, but in a code where import
is conditional (try/except), then we would keep those objects around
This patch must be backported as far as 2.0.
The old message "No more space left available" was redundant with "left
available". This commit is to rephrase that sentence and make it more
explicit we are talking about memory
This patch must be backported as far as 2.0.
As per https://docs.python.org/3/c-api/none.html, None requires to be
incremented before being returned to prevent deallocating none
This patch must be backported as far as 2.0.
When we encounter a failure, all previously borrowed references should
be freed. Especially if the program is not failing immediately
This patch must be backported as far as 2.0.
IP addresses references passed in argument for ps_python are not freed after
they have been used. Leading to a small chance of mem leak if a lot of ip
addresses are passed around
This patch must be backported as far as 2.0.
The result from spoa evaluation of the user provided python code is
never passed back to the main spoa process nor freed.
Same for the keyword list passed.
This results into the elements never freed by Python as reference count
never goes down.

From https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0353/
"A new type Py_ssize_t is introduced, which has the same size as the
compiler's size_t type, but is signed. It will be a typedef for ssize_t
where available."
For integer types, causes printf to expect a size_t-sized integer
argument.
This should fix github issue #702
This should be backported to >= v2.2
