    "content": "This series performs some minor cleanup of the C extension modules and\nmigrates the module defintions to multi-phase intitialization (PEP 489).\n\nPatches 1 & 2 avoid calling back into python to perform C level object\ncleanup.\n\nPatch 3 introduces no real functional change but simplifies the code to\nget the same result.\n\nPatch 4 applies suggestions from from a utility maintained by a CPython\ncore developer to help modernize macro/function usage.\n\nPatch 5 conditionally compiles support for using a standard CPython\nfunction over a backported version bundled within the C extension.\n\nPatches 6-8 migrate the C extensions to use multi-phase initialization\nas described in PEP 489 [0]. While not strictly necessary for enabling\nfree-threaded builds, it makes adding support more straighforward and\nsets the stage for both PEP 793 [1] which soft-deprecates PyInit_* and\nPEP 803 [2] which could simplify wheel builds.\n\nPatches have been tested against the full matrix of supported versions:\n  https://github.com/vfazio/libgpiod/actions/runs/24860932220\n\n[0]: https://peps.python.org/pep-0489/\n[1]: https://peps.python.org/pep-0793/\n[2]: https://peps.python.org/pep-0803/\n\nSigned-off-by: Vincent Fazio <vfazio@gmail.com>\n---\nChanges in v2:\n- Dropped \"bindings: python: use Py_RETURN_NONE in chip_get_line_name\" (Bartosz)\n- Adjusted patch 4 to simplify Py_None strong reference acquisition\n- Updated link to passing pipeline\n- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260422012041.39933-1-vfazio@gmail.com/\n---\n\nVincent Fazio (8):\n  bindings: python: avoid PyObject_CallMethod during chip finalize\n  bindings: python: avoid PyObject_CallMethod during request finalize\n  bindings: python: simplify disallowing _ext.Request from being created\n  bindings: python: use suggestions from upgrade_pythoncapi.py\n  bindings: python: use PyImport_ImportModuleAttrString when available\n  bindings: python: migrate the gpiod._ext module to multi-phase init\n  bindings: python: tests: migrate the system module to multi-phase init\n  bindings: python: tests: migrate the gpiosim module to multi-phase\n    init\n\n bindings/python/gpiod/ext/chip.c     |  29 ++---\n bindings/python/gpiod/ext/common.c   |   5 +-\n bindings/python/gpiod/ext/internal.h |  10 +-\n bindings/python/gpiod/ext/module.c   |  68 ++++++------\n bindings/python/gpiod/ext/request.c  |  26 ++---\n bindings/python/tests/gpiosim/ext.c  | 153 +++++++++++++++++----------\n bindings/python/tests/system/ext.c   |   7 +-\n 7 files changed, 171 insertions(+), 127 deletions(-)"
