[issue8297] AttributeError message text should include module name
Ray.Allen ysj@gmail.com added the comment: In fact, there are only three types of tp_getattro functions: 1.For type objects, it is type_getattro(), in case of AttributeError, this function give the message format: type object %(type)s has no attribute %(attr)s 2.For super objects, it is super_getattro(), in case of no attribute found in one of its base class, it calls the 3'th getattr function below. 3.For the base type 'object' and other new style class, it is PyObject_GenericGetAttr(), and in case of AttributeError, this function give the message format: %(type)s object has no attribute %(attr)s So, there are only tow formats of AttributeError's exception messages: 1.type object %(type)s has no attribute %(attr)s 2.%(type)s object has no attribute %(attr)s The first one is for type objects, the second one is for all the instances objects. In most cases, these tow formats it is enough for program to display, bu t it is not well enough. Take the module objects for example, in case of AttributeError, we will always hope to know exactly which module has no attribute, not only the message: 'module object has attribute xxx'. Also for the super() call, take super(A, b).xxx() for example, if the attribute is not found in the class next to the A in b's type's mro list, PyObject_GenericGetAttr() will be called with the two arguments, the super object its self and 'xxx'. But there are only few valid attributes of a super object, like '__thisclass__', '__self__', '__self_class__'. In most cases, we don't need these attributes of a super object, what we need is the attribute of one of b's type's base types. So I think once the AttributeError is raised in PyObject_GenericGetAttr() call in the end of super_getattro(), the exception message should tell us in which base class python can not found the attribte 'xxx', but not the super object itself, although the exception is raised in the PyObject_GenericGetAttr(super obj, 'xxx'). For the solution, I think the type_getattro and super_getattro can just return NULL to indicate the attribute is not found, but for a wrapper function of this tow which is the tp_getattro for each type to raise the attribute error, with the reasonable exception message. For example, mudule type can tell which module has no attribute, super type can tell which base class has no attribute, and so on.

[issue8299] Improve GIL in 2.7
New submission from Kristján Valur Jónsson krist...@ccpgames.com: This patch does several things: 1) Creates a separate lock type PyThread_type_gil and locking functions for that. This allows tweaking of the GIL without affecting regular lock behaviour. 2) Creates a uniform implementation of the GIL on windows/pthreads using macros, with emulated condition variables on windows (Lifted Antoine's code from py3k, adding own improvements to the slightly problematic windows implementation). This makes the GIL behave the same on windows and pthreads platforms, if we so choose, and allows cross-platform development. 3) provide three GIL implementations: a) legacy gil, which is the same as the one used on pthreads b) a roundrobin gil, which fixes the multicore problem on pthreads and exhibits the same behaviour as the legacy GIL on windows did (no jumping the gil queue) c) a priority based gil, with n given priority levels, and optionally, the ability to request immediate GIL drop by the ceval.c loop. See thread_gil.h for details of the three modes. In my experiments using David Beazley's scripts from http://www.dabeaz.com/blog/dablog.html, implementation b fixed the performance problems encountered on multicore machines. This is, I believe, the original impetus for Antoine Pitrou's work on the new GIL. Implementation c improved data transfer still, by allowing faster wakeup of completed IO. Please note that I was not able to test this patch on a pthreads machine, I can only hope that it compiles :) -- components: Interpreter Core files: gil.patch keywords: patch, patch messages: 102234 nosy: beazley, krisvale, pitrou severity: normal status: open title: Improve GIL in 2.7 type: performance versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file16744/gil.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8299 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

I decided to follow RFC 3629, putting 0 instead of 5/6 for bytes in range F5-FD (we can always put them back in the unlikely case that the Unicode Consortium changed its mind) and also for other invalid ranges (e.g. C0-C1). This lead to some simplification in the code. Ok. I also found out that, according to RFC 3629, surrogates are considered invalid and they can't be encoded/decoded, but the UTF-8 codec actually does it. I included tests and fix but I left them commented out because this is out of the scope of this patch, and it probably need a discussion on python-dev. Right, but that idea is controversial. In Python we need to be able to put those surrogate code points into source code (encoded as UTF-8) as well as pickle and marshal dumps of Unicode object dumps, so we can't consider them invalid UTF-8. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8271 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue8300] Allow struct.pack to handle objects with an __index__ method.
New submission from Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com:
In Python 2.7, struct.pack with an integer format can handle non-integers that
provide an __int__ method (although this *does* raise a DeprecationWarning).
Python 2.7a4+ (trunk:79659:79661, Apr 3 2010, 11:28:19)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646) (dot 1)] on darwin
Type help, copyright, credits or license for more information.
from struct import pack
[35194 refs]
pack('L', 3.1415)
'\x03\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00'
[35210 refs]
This behaviour isn't particularly desirable for floats or Decimal instances,
but it's useful for integer-like objects.
In Python 3.x, there's no provision for handling integer-like objects than
aren't actually integers.
I propose that in 3.x, struct.pack should try to convert any non-integer to an
integer by using its __index__ method, before packing.

[issue8299] Improve GIL in 2.7
Kristján Valur Jónsson krist...@ccpgames.com added the comment: Antoine: Please take a look, the change is really simple, particularly the ROUNDROBIN_GIL variant which fixes the originally observed problem. the GIL is still a lock, implemented using a mutex and a semaphore. It is modified to work exactly as the lock always has done on windows (which is why the original problem isn't present on that platform). The simplicity of the change stems from the fact that the gil is still just a mutex-type object, which is aqcuired and released just as it has always been. The change is in the internal rules of the mutex, making sure that threads queue up properly and (optionally) that they are released in a priority based order. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8299 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment: That patch was a bit hasty in many respects; here's a better one. For 2.7, the scheme is as follows: when packing a non-integer with an integer format: (1) First __index__ is tried (2) If the __index__ method doesn't exist, or the call to __index__ raises TypeError, then the __int__ method is tried. (3) If the __index__ method raises something other than TypeError, or returns a non-integer, then struct.pack fails. -- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file16748/struct_index_trunk2.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8300 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue4256] optparse: provide a simple way to get a programmatically useful list of options
Andy Buckley a...@insectnation.org added the comment: That sort of idea, yes: just a wild thought, but it would be really nice if this was available so that in combination with a standard bash/zsh function, getting basic automatic command completion for scripts built with optparse (and any other implementer of such a scheme) was as simple as adding complete -F _optparse -o default mycmdname to the completion script library. The simple scheme you laid out seems fine to me, but in the best bikeshedding tradition it would be useful to distinguish between options which take an argument and those which don't, pre-empt the need for a format version, and make the parsing even easier by removing cosmetic whitespace, commas etc.: grusz...@gruszczy-laptop:~/Programs/logbuilder$ ./logbuilder --help-options #OPTPARSE_FORMAT 0 --version -h --help -r= --regexp= -c= --contains= -s= --start= -e= --end= -f= --file= -t= --template= -p= --purge= Maybe this is just a pipe-dream, but the need to hand-write basic completion scripts seems so unnecessary, just for lack of any (even de-facto) standardisation. As optparse already enforces/encourages many good habits and conventions, some system like this would further help the integration with shell completion. Or maybe the existing --help output is good enough for a rather more fiddly standard bash completion parsing function. I've tried writing one of these, but it would hard for it be generally robust since the descriptive strings can contain any structure that they feel like, and could hence mess up the pattern-matching.

[issue8279] python-gdb PyListTests fail
Dave Malcolm dmalc...@redhat.com added the comment: It looks like all of the failures were due to gdb.Frame not having a function method. I did some digging, and it appears that this attribute may not yet be in the upstream version of gdb. The gdb/python integration was largely implemented by colleagues of mine at Red Hat, and Fedora's build of gdb is closely tracking their work. It looks to me like only a subset of their work has been merged into upstream gdb so far. Specifically http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/gdb/F-12/gdb-archer.patch?revision=1.40view=markup (warning: large) contains a hunk that applies to gdb/python/py-frame.c which adds frapy_function. So it appears that I've unwittingly coded this to a very recent pre-merge version of gdb. Sorry about this. What is the output of gdb --version on this machine?

The fix would be to detect the presence of gdb.Frame.function, and enable/disable the commands and their selftests accordingly, assuming that it's OK to add a conditional dependency on code that isn't merged into gdb's trunk yet.

[issue8307] test_pep263 failure on OS X
New submission from Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com:
I'm seeing a very peculiar test_pep263 failure when doing 'make test' on OS X
10.6.3. It's enough to run test___all__ and test_pep263, in that order:
Mark-Dickinsons-MacBook-Pro:trunk dickinsm$ ./python.exe -Wd -3 -E -tt
./Lib/test/regrtest.py test___all__ test_pep263
test___all__
/Users/dickinsm/python/svn/trunk/Lib/test/test___all__.py:3:
DeprecationWarning: in 3.x, the bsddb module has been removed; please use the
pybsddb project instead
import bsddb
/Users/dickinsm/python/svn/trunk/Lib/bsddb/__init__.py:67:
PendingDeprecationWarning: The CObject type is marked Pending Deprecation in
Python 2.7. Please use capsule objects instead.
import _bsddb
test_pep263
test test_pep263 failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):

1 test OK.
1 test failed:
test_pep263
[218378 refs]
The failing test is expecting a SyntaxError, but gets a NameError instead.
I've narrowed down the cause of the failure to a Tkinter import:
Python 2.7a4+ (trunk:79716, Apr 3 2010, 20:30:09)
[GCC 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646) (dot 1)] on darwin

[35036 refs]
import Tkinter

eval('\xff\x20')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File stdin, line 1, in module
File string, line 1, in module
NameError: name '?' is not defined
[51324 refs]
But I'm now mystified: why does the eval raise a SyntaxError before the import
and a TypeError afterwards?

[issue8307] test_pep263 failure on OS X
Mark Dickinson dicki...@gmail.com added the comment: I realize that the above doesn't really explain why the NameError is occurring: Python's token recognition algorithm, in tok_get in tokenizer.c, uses isalpha, which is locale-aware. In particular, it seems that chr(255) is considered alphabetic in the UTF-8 codeset, and not in ASCII. Should this instance of isalpha be replaced by something that's not locale aware? I'm not sure what the rules are supposed to be in 2.x for recognising identifiers. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue8307 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue8308] raw_bytes.decode('cp932') -- spurious mappings
New submission from John Machin sjmac...@users.sourceforge.net:
According to the following references, the bytes 80, A0, FD, FE, and FF are not
defined in cp932:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-au/goglobal/cc305152.aspx
http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/WINDOWS/CP932.TXT
http://demo.icu-project.org/icu-bin/convexp?conv=ibm-943_P15A-2003s=ALL
However CPython 3.1.2 does this:
print(ascii(b'\x80\xa0\xfd\xfe\xff'.decode('cp932')))
'\x80\uf8f0\uf8f1\uf8f2\uf8f3'
(as do 2.5, 2.6. and 2.7 with the appropriate syntax)
This maps 80 to U+0080 (not very useful) and maps the other 4 bytes into the
Private Use Area (PUA)!! Each case should be treated as
undefined/unexpected/error/...
