.. c:type:: PyUnstable_ExecutableKinds

An array of executable kinds (executor types) for frames, used for internal
debugging and tracing.

Tools like debuggers and profilers can use this to identify the type of execution
context associated with a frame (e.g. to filter out internal frames).
The entries are indexed by the following constants:

.. list-table::
:header-rows: 1
:widths: auto

* - Constant
- Description
* - :c:macro:`PyUnstable_EXECUTABLE_KIND_SKIP`
- The frame is internal (e.g. inlined) and should be skipped by tools.
* - :c:macro:`PyUnstable_EXECUTABLE_KIND_PY_FUNCTION`
- The frame corresponds to a standard Python function.

.. versionadded:: 3.13


.. c:macro:: PyUnstable_EXECUTABLE_KIND_SKIP

Index for the "skip" kind in :c:data:`PyUnstable_ExecutableKinds`.
Indicates that the frame's code object should be skipped.

.. versionadded:: 3.13


.. c:macro:: PyUnstable_EXECUTABLE_KIND_PY_FUNCTION

Index for the "Python function" kind in ``PyUnstable_ExecutableKinds``.
