Thanks to Scott H for the reference. It didn't directly helped me but it pointed out that the problem was my redefinition of \parskip and \baselineskip.

I'm using this now and it mostly works:

\begin{lstlisting}[belowskip=-0.8 \baselineskip]
CyclotomicField(order).gen().coordinates_in_terms_of_powers()
\end{lstlisting}

You should never redefine \baselineskip directly in latex (use \linespread or a font size command) and \parskip can only be changed with some care. – David Carlisle Jun 11 '13 at 21:17

Actually, the space above/below any listing is given by \medskipamount. See the listings documentation (section 2.7 Layout elements, p 15, under the heading Vertical space). – Werner Jul 11 '13 at 21:21
The extra space is also present when you increase linespacing with the \onehalfspacing command from the setspace package (needed in my case because of a specific body font with large ascenders and descenders, and a long line length). – Peter Flynn May 15 '17 at 11:21
How to use this at the same time with [language=SomeLang] ? – Asqiir Oct 27 '18 at 07:21

Albert solution woks with \begin{lstlisting}[belowskip=-1.5 \baselineskip] @ alper – Raoul HATTERER Jun 15 '20 at 23:50
There is also aboveskip option which can be used to control space above the listing block. – High Performance Rangsiman Dec 30 '21 at 00:51
