GH-16598 added the static variable
module_initializedto_asynciomodule.cto guard against multiple initializations and instead re-use the resources from the first initialization. However, the variable isn't cleared inmodule_free(). If the module is again initialized aftermodule_freeis called, the program will crash. In particular,Py_INCREF(all_tasks);inPyInit__asyncio()will access invalid memory.The fix seems straightforward: simply clear the flag in
module_free(). This seems symmetric with it being set inmodule_init().https://bugs.python.org/issue40294
