I'm talking about this private function:
static int
unicode_modifiable(PyObject *unicode)
{
assert(_PyUnicode_CHECK(unicode));
if (Py_REFCNT(unicode) != 1)
return 0;
if (_PyUnicode_HASH(unicode) != -1)
return 0;
if (PyUnicode_CHECK_INTERNED(unicode))
return 0;
if (!PyUnicode_CheckExact(unicode))
return 0;
#ifdef Py_DEBUG
/* singleton refcount is greater than 1 */
assert(!unicode_is_singleton(unicode));
#endif
return 1;
}
