[issue20827] IDLE : Display function argument list in ClassBrowser
Saimadhav Heblikar added the comment: I have added a improved patch. What this patch does: 1. resolves issue 1 of msg213193 - uses inspect. signature() instead of inspect.getargspec. 2. resolves issue 2 of msg213193 - the module is imported only once per ClassBrowser instance. 3. resolves issue 2 of msg21 - the classbrowser display is based on the current EditorWindow text and not based on whats on disk. All changes to reflect this have been made in ClassBrowser.py and pyclbr, therefore i did not create a new issue. 4. resolves issue 1 of msg21 - though i feel there are better ways to do this than this patch - which manually close and create a new ClassBrowser instance what this patch does NOT do: 1. the test_pyclbr fails after the proposed changes to pyclbr,(which is just adding a new keyword argument to _readmodule,readmodule_ex. i have circled it down to this. the only other change to pyclbr is an extra if statement.) i have tried to modify the tests to reflect the same, but to no avail. if you can give me some hints on how to move forward, i'll be quick to implement the tests. here is the test error - test_decorators (test.test_pyclbr.PyclbrTest) ... *** B FAIL test_easy (test.test_pyclbr.PyclbrTest) ... ok test_issue_14798 (test.test_pyclbr.PyclbrTest) ... ok test_others (test.test_pyclbr.PyclbrTest) ... *** BytesHeaderParser FAIL == FAIL: test_decorators (test.test_pyclbr.PyclbrTest) -- Traceback (most recent call last): File /media/development/cpython/Lib/test/test_pyclbr.py, line 152, in test_decorators self.checkModule('test.pyclbr_input', ignore=['om']) File /media/development/cpython/Lib/test/test_pyclbr.py, line 139, in checkModule self.assertHaskey(dict, name, ignore) File /media/development/cpython/Lib/test/test_pyclbr.py, line 43, in assertHaskey self.assertIn(key, obj) AssertionError: 'B' not found in {} == FAIL: test_others (test.test_pyclbr.PyclbrTest) -- Traceback (most recent call last): File /media/development/cpython/Lib/test/test_pyclbr.py, line 167, in test_others cm('email.parser') File /media/development/cpython/Lib/test/test_pyclbr.py, line 139, in checkModule self.assertHaskey(dict, name, ignore) File /media/development/cpython/Lib/test/test_pyclbr.py, line 43, in assertHaskey self.assertIn(key, obj) AssertionError: 'BytesHeaderParser' not found in {} -- Ran 4 tests in 15.437s -- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file34439/classbrowser-improvements-v2.patch ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20827 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue20944] Engineering Process Improvements
New submission from Jeffrey Walton: Python's code is crisp and sharp. From a software design perspective, I don't see a lot of room for improvement. However, looking at some of the issues flagged by Clang sanitizers and existing bug reports, I think the project has a couple of small opportunities for improvement in the engineering process. The small improvements have the potential for large payoffs, and could help take a mature code base to the next level. The improvements are not sexy, and they are often overlooked. The improvements are: (1) add instrumentation to the code; and (2) add scanning and analysis to the engineering process. To improve the code and engineering process to proactively hunt obscure and hard to find bugs, I would suggest three actionable items: * ASSERTions * Clang Santizers * Coverity Scans Placing measures to proactively hunt bugs will improve the code quality, and likely allow the project to drop `-fwrapv` and friends from compiler options (http://bugs.python.org/issue1621). ASSERTions == The code uses Posix's little assert on occasion. Posix assert is useless during development because it raise SIGABRT. Additionally, the code has minimal assertions, so assertions are not being utilized effectively. I think there is an opportunity to use a big ASSERT. The big ASSERT raises a SIGTRAP, and during development it will ensure the debugger snaps on an unexpected condition. The big ASSERT raises awareness where needed and allows the developers to continue handling on a negative code path. ASSERTs should be liberally sprinkled. That is, ASSERT parameters, return values and program state. Python is setup correctly with NDEBUG on Release builds, so the ASSERTs will be removed in production. With a full compliment of ASSERTs in place, the code will essential debug itself under most circumstances. In fact, I often pitch it as self-debugging code to management. Self debugging code has three benefits. First, self debugging code is effectively a force multiplier, and it allows fewer developers to maintain a larger code base. Second, it allows non-senior members to effectively contribute to the project. Google Summer of Code interns and junior developers could be effective team members since the ASSERTs will often guide them in tracing problems. Third, ASSERTs free up time for other endeavors, like adding features to Python or watching football. Clang Sanitizers === I think the code base would benefit from regular Clang sanitizer scans. From initial scanning and testing, I believe Clang and its sanitizers has shown its value. The sanitizers perform dynamic analysis. The issues flagged are almost always real issues, and require almost no filtering due to false positives. The analysis should include the undefined behavior sanitizer (-fsanitize=undefined) and the address sanitizer (-fsanitize=address). There are more sanitizers available, and they are listed at http://clang.llvm.org/docs/UsersManual.html#controlling-code-generation. From past experience, I've used Asan (address sanitizer) and UBsan (undefined behavior sanitizer) to find tricky bugs in other projects and libraries. For example, Wei Dai's Crypto++ would fail one self test when compiled with Intel's ICC (but pass them all under Clang, Comeau, GCC and MSVC). The failed Crypto++ self test was due to ICC aggressively removing undefined behavior, and the Intel compiler/optimizer targeted [not readily apprent] undefined behavior in the underlying library code. After fixing the library code identifed by Clang UBsan, Crypto++ tested fine under all compilers. The real beauty here is: (1) Python already has a mature process, so the addition of the Clang analysis will take minimal effort; and (2) Python has a rich set of self-test, so the Clang sanitizers can *really* be effective. For areas that don't have complete self test coverage, its another task that can be delegated to non-senior members and contributors. That frees up time for senior members to do other things, like adding features to Python or watching football. Coverity Scans == I think the project could benefit from Coverity scanning and analysis. The analysis is quite good most of the time, and I believe it will complement Python's exiting engineering process. In addition, it will complement Clang analysis is Clang is adopted. Coverity is one of the high-end analysis engines available. Though Coverity is a pay-to-play service, Coverity offers a free scanning service for free projects. The URL for the free service is http://scan.coverity.com. It cost nothing to sign up for, and it costs nothing to run a scan. Minimal effort is required to prepare a binary for upload. Coverity performs static analysis, and it will flag false positives on occasion. However, its a trade-off in the effort to proactively hunt bugs. -- components: Build messages: 213728 nosy:

[issue20906] Issues in Unicode HOWTO
Antoine Pitrou added the comment: Do you want to provide a patch? In a narrative such as the current article, a code point value is usually written in hexadecimal. I find use of the word narrative intimidating in the context of a technical documentation. In general, I find it disappointing that the Unicode HOWTO only gives hexadecimal representations of non-ASCII characters and (almost) never represents them in their true form. This makes things more abstract than necessary. This is a vague claim. Probably what was intended was: Many Internet standards define protocols in which the data must contain no zero bytes, or zero bytes have special meaning. Is this actually true? Are there many such standards? I think it actually means that Internet protocols assume an ASCII-compatible encoding (which UTF-8 is, but not UTF-16 or UTF-32 - nor EBCDIC :-)). -- Non-Unicode code systems usually don't handle all of the characters to be found in Unicode. The term *encoding* is used pervasively when dealing with the transformation of unicode to/from bytes, so I find it confusing to introduce another term here (code systems). I prefer the original sentence. -- nosy: +akuchling ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20906 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue1738] filecmp.dircmp does exact match only
Nikolaus Rath added the comment: I don't think that we can just introduce path normalization in phase0. Even though I agree that this would be the proper way to do it when reimplementing from scratch, it breaks backward compatibility. There also is a small mistake in that the *match* attribute should also be used for subdirectories in the `phase4` method. Other than that, this patch looks good to me. I fixed the above issues, rebased on current hg tip, and added some missing markup in the documentation. After inspecting the code, it seems that there is no difference between directory entries being hidden by the *hide* parameter, and being ignored* by the *ignore* parameter, so I also updated the documentation make this less confusing. I could not reproduce the test failure reported by Mark, but this is most likely because I could not find out on what base revision to apply his patch. I think this is ready for commit. -- nosy: +nikratio Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file3/issue1738.diff ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue1738 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue20949] Missing platform security integrations
New submission from Jeffrey Walton: $ hg id 3736bf94535c+ tip A standard Python build does not take a proactive approach to integrating with platform security measures. Attepting to add the measures results in a failed build. For example: export CC=/usr/bin/gcc export CXX=/usr/bin/g++ export CFLAGS=-fPIC -fstack-protector-all -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 export CXXFLAGS=-fPIC -fstack-protector-all -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 export LDFLAGS=-pie -Wl,-z,noexecstack -Wl,-z,noexecheap -Wl,-z,now -Wl,-z,relro will configure properly, but will fail to build. The idea is to build executables with {-fPIE,-pie} and build shared objects with {-fPIC,-shared}. Both executables and shared objects get the remaining platform security integrations like stack protectors and NX stacks/heaps. In the case an object file is used for both an executable and shared object, it should be compiled with -fPIC (and linking will include -pie or -shared as required). Its OK to use -fPIC in place of -fPIE. See http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52885 for details. * Examining the failed compile: /usr/bin/gcc -pthread -shared -pie -Wl,-z,noexecstack -Wl,-z,noexecheap -Wl,-z,now -Wl,-z,relro -pie -Wl,-z,noexecstack -Wl,-z,noexecheap -Wl,-z,now -Wl,-z,relro -pie -Wl,-z,noexecstack -Wl,-z,noexecheap -Wl,-z,now -Wl,-z,relro -fPIC -fstack-protector-all -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 build/temp.linux-x86_64-3.4/home/jwalton/Desktop/cpython-checkout/Modules/_struct.o -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -L/usr/local/lib -o build/lib.linux-x86_64-3.4/_struct.cpython-34m.so So, autotools tried to add both -pie (for executables) and -shared (for shared objects). Fail. The same problem occurs with _struct.cpython-34m.so, _ctypes_test.cpython-34m.so, array.cpython-34m.so, cmath.cpython-34m.so, math.cpython-34m.so, time.cpython-34m.so, _datetime.cpython-34m.so, _random.cpython-34m.so, _bisect.cpython-34m.so, ... * I know I can omit -pie from CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS: export CC=/usr/bin/gcc export CXX=/usr/bin/g++ export CFLAGS=-fPIC -fstack-protector-all -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 export CXXFLAGS=-fPIC -fstack-protector-all -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 export LDFLAGS=-Wl,-z,noexecstack -Wl,-z,noexecheap -Wl,-z,now -Wl,-z,relro but then I have to manually add -pie to Makefile lines with $BUILDPYTHON (and others, like _testembed and _freeze_importlib): $(BUILDPYTHON): Modules/python.o $(LIBRARY) $(LDLIBRARY) $(PY3LIBRARY) $(LINKCC) -pie $(PY_LDFLAGS) $(LINKFORSHARED) -o $@ Modules/python.o $(BLDLIBRARY) $(LIBS) $(MODLIBS) $(SYSLIBS) $(LDLAST) ... * Examining an executable produced by the modified Makefil with Tobias Klein's Checksec (http://www.trapkit.de/tools/checksec.html) shows the platform security integrations were successfully applied: $ checksec.sh --file ./python RELRO STACK CANARY NXPIE RPATH RUNPATH FILE Full RELRO Canary found NX enabledPIE enabled No RPATH No RUNPATH ./python * Running `make test` with the security integrations worked as expected, and did not result in any adverse behavior (like an abrupt shutdown). * It would be great if Python tested for features like ASLR for executables, and simply added {-fPIE,-pie} as available. The same is true for the other security offerings (_FORTIFY_SOURCE should be added to Release builds only). -- components: Build hgrepos: 226 messages: 213749 nosy: Jeffrey.Walton priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Missing platform security integrations versions: Python 3.5 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20949 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue20951] SSLSocket.send() returns 0 for non-blocking socket
New submission from Nikolaus Rath: When using non-blocking operation, the SSLSocket.send method returns 0 if no data can be sent at this point. This is counterintuitive, because in the same situation (write to non-blocking socket that isn't ready for IO): * A regular (non-SSL) socket raises BlockingIOError * libc's send(2) does not return 0, but -EAGAIN or -EWOULDBLOCK. * OpenSSL's ssl_write does not return 0, but returns an SSL_ERROR_WANT_WRITE error * The ssl module's documentation describes the SSLWantWrite exception as A subclass of SSLError raised by a non-blocking SSL socket when trying to read or write data, but more data needs to be sent on the underlying TCP transport before the request can be fulfilled. * Consistent with that, trying to *read* from a non-blocking SSLSocket when no data is ready raises SSLWantRead, instead of returning zero. This behavior also makes it more complicated to write code that works with both SSLSockets and regular sockets. Since the current behavior undocumented at best (and contradicting the documentation at worst), can we change this in Python 3.5? -- components: Library (Lib) messages: 213759 nosy: christian.heimes, giampaolo.rodola, janssen, nikratio, pitrou priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: SSLSocket.send() returns 0 for non-blocking socket type: behavior versions: Python 3.5 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20951 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue20951] SSLSocket.send() returns 0 for non-blocking socket
Nikolaus Rath added the comment: This is actually seems to be not just an inconvience, but a real bug: since SSLSocket.sendall() uses SSLSocket.send() internally, the former method will busy-loop when called on a non-blocking socket. Note also that the .sendto and .write methods already behave consistently and raise SSLWantWrite. It seems it's really just the send() method that is the lone outlier. The attached patch changes ssl.send to raise SSLWantWrite instead of returning zero. The full testsuite still runs fine. I'm a bit sceptical though, because the code looks as if send() was deliberately written to catch the SSLWantWrite exception and return zero instead..

RDRAND has taken some criticism because its essentially unaudited and it could be spiked like the Dual-EC generator (http://blog.cryptographyengineering.com/2013/09/the-many-flaws-of-dualecdrbg.html). If the RDRAND engine is in effect, then the application and the library (internally) will be using the generator. But some some folks don't want to use an unaudited generator. I'm not sure what the best action is to take. For reading on ways to disable the RDRAND engine, see http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2013/Dec/142. -- components: Extension Modules messages: 213769 nosy: Jeffrey.Walton priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: OpenSSL and RDRAND ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20952 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue20112] The documentation for http.server error_message_format is inadequate.
R. David Murray added the comment: Hmm. Rereading your patch I see that that is what you are trying to do, but I find the order of presentation confusing. I would rather see the text focus on the fact that the string is used by send_error, and that the variables are filled by default from responses based on the code passed to send_error, and that you can also specify an alternate explain message that overrides the one from responses when calling send_error. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20112 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

R. David Murray added the comment: Thanks. That patch looks good except that it is missing the corresponding documentation changes, but... I just noticed that this table is a partial duplicate of the table in http.server. I suspect this has historical origins, but I don't see any reason to maintain the duplication. I wonder if we should do some refactoring here. This is getting a beyond the original scope of this issue, but it seems to me that the common stuff used by http.server and http.client (which is mostly in http.client, except for the 'explain' messages that are in the http.server responses list) could be moved into a 'common' or 'util' module, and imported from both, thus reducing the direct coupling between http.server and http.client. (The 'responses' object in http.client would have to be computed from the one in this new module, since the http.client one doesn't contain the 'explain' messages). -- nosy: +orsenthil versions: +Python 3.5 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20898 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

R. David Murray added the comment: From python's point of view they are both aliases of iso-8859_8, as discussed in this issue. Python does not have iso-8859_8-e and i codecs, which you changes to the alias table implies that it does (the target of the entry in the aliases table is the python codec name...and there is only iso8859_8.py, not iso8859_8_E.py or _I.py). -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue18624 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Filip Malczak added the comment: If we're getting out of original scope, then I wonder... Maybe we should keep only standard status codes here? If not, which should we support, and which not? What about custom Spring 420 Method Failure? One way to clean up mess here is to create some dictionaries called Http09, Http10, Http11, but also Nginx, Spring, InternetDraft, etc - they would hold codes specific to some standard or extension (and they should be incremental, so Http11 would hold only those codes that came with HTTP 1.1, not any of HTTP 1.0 codes). Also, we should provide function responses_mapping which should take dictionaries with code mappings, so one may use it like responses_mapping(Http09, Http10, Http11, Spring). Module attribute responses should be initialized to responses_mapping(Http09, Http10, Http11), so it would contain standard codes only. responses_mapping (we should probably consider different name) should take any number of dicts, merge them and return merging result. Additionally, I think it should overwrite merged values, so if we call it with two dicts, which hold the same key - value from last dict with this key should be used. Essentially, it is just: def responses_mapping(*dicts): out = {} for d in dicts: out.update(d) return out Now, we would have clean responses dictionary (mentioned in first comment, one that started this issue), and possibility to extend responses set with different protocol and extension versions. There may be one problem - many apps and libs (possibly standard python library too) may use keys from out of HTTP standard, so this change could break backwards compability. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20898 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue20906] Issues in Unicode HOWTO
Graham Wideman added the comment: Do you want to provide a patch? I would be happy to, but I'm not currently set up to create a patch. Also, I hoped that an author who has more history with this article would supervise, especially where I don't know what the original intent was. I find use of the word narrative intimidating in the context of a technical documentation. Agreed. How about In documentation such as the current article... In general, I find it disappointing that the Unicode HOWTO only gives hexadecimal representations of non-ASCII characters and (almost) never represents them in their true form. This makes things more abstract than necessary. I concur with reducing unnecessary abstraction. No sure what you mean by true form. Do you mean show the glyph which the code point represents? Or the sequence of bytes? Or display the code point value in decimal? This is a vague claim. Probably what was intended was: Many Internet standards define protocols in which the data must contain no zero bytes, or zero bytes have special meaning. Is this actually true? Are there many such standards? I think it actually means that Internet protocols assume an ASCII-compatible encoding (which UTF-8 is, but not UTF-16 or UTF-32 - nor EBCDIC :-)). Ah -- yes that makes sense. -- Non-Unicode code systems usually don't handle all of the characters to be found in Unicode. The term *encoding* is used pervasively when dealing with the transformation of unicode to/from bytes, so I find it confusing to introduce another term here (code systems). I prefer the original sentence. I see that my revision missed the target. There is a problem, but it is wider than this sentence. One of the most essential points this article should make clear is the distinction between older schemes with a single mapping: Characters -- numbers in particular binary format. (eg: ASCII) ... versus Unicode with two levels of mapping... Characters -- code point numbers -- particular binary format of the number data and sequences thereof. In the older schemes, encoding referred to the one mapping: chars -- numbers in particular binary format. In Unicode, encoding refers only to the mapping: code point numbers -- binary format. It does not refer to the chars -- code point mapping. (At least, I think that's the case. Regardless, the two mappings need to be rigorously distinguished.) On review, there are many points in the article that muddy this up. For example, Unicode started out using 16-bit characters instead of 8-bit characters. Saying so-an-so-bit characters about Unicode, in the current article, is either wrong, or very confusing. Unicode characters are associated with code points, NOT with any _particular_ bit level representation. If I'm right about the preceding, then it would be good for that to be spelled out more explicitly, and used consistently throughout the article. (I won't try to list all the examples of this problem here -- too messy.) -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20906 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue20906] Issues in Unicode HOWTO
Graham Wideman added the comment: A further issue regarding one-to-one mappings. Article: Encodings don’t have to be simple one-to-one mappings like Latin-1. Consider IBM’s EBCDIC, which was used on IBM mainframes. I don't think this paragraph is about one-to-one mappings per se. (ie: one character to one code.) It seems to be about whether ranges of characters whose code values are contiguous in one coding system are also contiguous in another coding system. The EBCDIC encoding is still one-to-one, I believe. The subject of one-chararacter-to-one-code mapping is important (normalization etc), though perhaps beyond the current article. But I think the article should avoid suggesting that many-to-one or one-to-many scenarios are common. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20906 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue20943] configparser - add 'getDict' function
Łukasz Langa added the comment: Michael, what you wish is already a part of configparser. Let's use this as an example: p = configparser.ConfigParser() p.read_string( ... [one] ... opt=val ... [two] ... num=1 ... str=bzz ... bool=true ... ) When asking for a specific section, you get a SectionProxy object. It has a dict-like API but is not a dict: p['two'] Section: two isinstance(p['two'], dict) False The reason for that is two-fold: firstly this enables us to make changes made on a section object persistent within the main parser. Secondly, this enables us to add configparsser-specific functionality (like dynamic interpolation, type conversions, etc.): p['two']['num'] '1' p['two'].getint('num') 1 p['two']['str'] = 'bool is %(bool)s' p['two']['str'] 'bool is true' p['two']['bool'] = 'false' p['two']['str'] 'bool is false' Because the section proxy object follows the dict API very closely, it's trivial to convert a section to a dict: dict(p['two']) {'str': 'bool is false', 'bool': 'false', 'num': '1'} Note, however, that this sets in stone interpolations and doesn't provide built-in type conversions. -- assignee: - lukasz.langa resolution: - works for me status: open - closed ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue20943 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
