[BUG]: Compatibility issues between pybind11 and Py_LIMITED_API. #5905

@1271653627

Description

@1271653627

Required prerequisites

What version (or hash if on master) of pybind11 are you using?

3.0.1

Problem description

I wrote a demo using pybind11 and setuptools to install a function that prints "hello world" for use in Python. However, when I try to make the wheel package support multiple Python versions above 3.10, enabling Py_LIMITED_API results in an error. The error log is in the attachment, along with setup.py and my_extension.cpp.

However, if I compile using the pure Python C API, there are no issues (as shown in the commented section of my_extension.cpp). However, for the actual project I need to build the wheel package, the code is quite complex, and writing it with the pure Python C API is not very practical.

my_extension.cpp
setup.py

Reproducible example code


Is this a regression? Put the last known working version here if it is.

Not a regression
