+From https://docs.python.org/3.9/c-api/file.html
+
+These APIs are a minimal emulation of the Python 2 C API for built-in file objects,
+which used to rely on the buffered I/O (FILE*) support from the C standard library.
+In Python 3, files and streams use the new io module, which defines several layers
+over the low-level unbuffered I/O of the operating system. The functions described
+below are convenience C wrappers over these new APIs, and meant mostly for internal
+error reporting in the interpreter;
+
+third-party code is advised to access the io APIs instead.

+ # Create a Python file object from the file descriptor of an already
+ # opened file fd. The arguments name, encoding, errors and newline can be

+ object PyFile_GetLine(object p, int n)
+ # Return value: New reference.
+ # Equivalent to p.readline([n]), this function reads one line from the
+ # object p. p may be a file object or any object with a readline()
+ # method. If n is 0, exactly one line is read, regardless of the length of
+ # the line. If n is greater than 0, no more than n bytes will be read from
+ # the file; a partial line can be returned. In both cases, an empty string
+ # is returned if the end of the file is reached immediately. If n is less
+ # than 0, however, one line is read regardless of length, but EOFError is
+ # raised if the end of the file is reached immediately.
