[issue12905] multiple errors in test_socket on OpenBSD
Charles-François Natali neolo...@free.fr added the comment: I hope that this issue is not related to threads+signals. We got many threads+signals issues on FreeBSD 6. Yep. OpenBSD has a really specific pthread implementation (in user-space, using non-blocking I/O), so it might very well be yet another threads+signals occurrence. @Rémi What happens if you run a code equivalent to test_sendall_interrupted on its own? I mean, if you try something like this: import signal, socket c, s = socket.socketpair() signal.signal(signal.SIGALRM, lambda x,y: 0) signal.alarm(1) c.sendall(bx * (1024**2)) If it works, you could try creating a dummy thread before setting up the signal handler, something like: t = threading.Thread(target=lambda: 0) t.start() t.join() And retry. The problem with all those interruption tests (like issue #12903) is that they'll break on many *BSD if another thread is running. Although in this specific case, I suspect that there are no threads running, and we're really encountering a kernel/libc bug (Victor, remember the funny bug on FreeBSD where kill(getpid(), signal) didn't deliver the signal synchronously after the first thread had been created?). -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue12905 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue12909] Inconsistent exception usage in PyLong_As* C functions
New submission from Nadeem Vawda nadeem.va...@gmail.com: The C functions for converting a Python 'int' object to a C integer are inconsistent about what exception gets raised when the object passed to them is not an integer. Most of these functions raise a TypeError, but PyLong_AsUnsignedLongLong() and PyLong_AsDouble() raise a SystemError instead. Raising a SystemError here is quite unhelpful. My understanding is that it is intended to indicate internal programming errors, so an extension module should not raise one when (for example) a function is passed an argument of the incorrect type. In such a case, raising a TypeError is a reasonable default. Is there any reason not to change the behaviour of these two functions to be consistent with their siblings? -- components: Interpreter Core messages: 143588 nosy: nadeem.vawda, pitrou priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Inconsistent exception usage in PyLong_As* C functions type: behavior versions: Python 3.2, Python 3.3 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue12909 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue11561] coverage of Python regrtest cannot see initial import of libs
Brandon Craig Rhodes bran...@rhodesmill.org added the comment: Brett, yes, you are welcome to close this issue — Ned quite handily convinced me that coverage code belongs in the coverage distribution, not languishing about in the CPython source tree. That solution also quite beautifully solves the copyright problem. So I happily withdraw my request for this feature. Nick, Brett is working on exactly the sort of devguide improvement that you suggest — not least because the devguide will now need to instruct people in how to build coverage so that its C-accelerated tracer is available, which Ned's own patch to coverage to cover stdlib tracing uses instead of the Python tracer that I cut-and-pasted into this patch. Finally, it would be wonderful to have a more formal mechanism for boot-time interventions. I have mentioned before my wish that Python's first action be to open() the executable, check its tail to see if it's a valid zipfile, and if so to try loading and running startup.py from that zipfile. Among other things, that would allow single-file distribution of pure-Python applications without the py2exe/py2app mess that prevails in the projects I work with today. But since the whole issue of grabbing control at boot time raises hackles (why would you want to do that!?), and I needed something working immediately during the PyCon sprint, I elected to simply adopt encodings.py as my way in. It works great, and coverage can evolve to an even better mechanism as soon as one becomes available, should anyone want to take the bootup option and run with it. One final thought: should PyPy etc also implement the same boot protocol, should one be invented, so that all mainline interpreters can be instrumented the same way? -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue11561 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

An attribute in the sys module sounds like a good idea. It would not be an attribute of sys.flags though, as those are strictly command-line arguments. It's more useful to have a hook called when entering interactive mode, rather than a flag that's set from the beginning: We already have such a hook: $PYTHONSTARTUP calling e.g. sys.__interactivehook__ sounds even better. That’s another interesting idea. BTW, drawback of doing any such setup in site.py: python -S would be unfriendly!

[issue11561] coverage of Python regrtest cannot see initial import of libs
Thomas Wouters tho...@python.org added the comment: For what it's worth, the need for a bootstrap-module has also come up within Google, where we have... somewhat different requirements than most. In order to fix import paths in a way that works even when using python -S, I had a need to patch the very first module that gets imported. Unfortunately the actual first module that gets imported depends on the arguments passed to Python. So, I wrote the attached stdlib_landmark.diff patch, which makes a 'stdlib_landmark.py' file that is both the stdlib landmark (used by Python to find the stdlib itself, currently 'os.py') *and* the very first module that is imported, always. (The 'stdlib_landmark' name may be a little clunky; a better name, mirroring sitecustomize, may be stdlibcustomize or such.) And yes, this could have been fixed in other ways. I could've patched the interpreter directly, or made Python understand symlinks to .py/.pyc files better, or tried to make a bunch of other tools work better with symlinks. This has turned out the most convenient solution for a number of reasons, though. -- nosy: +twouters Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file23107/stdlib_landmark.diff ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue11561 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue5845] rlcompleter should be enabled automatically
Éric Araujo mer...@netwok.org added the comment: sys.__interactivehook__ has the benefit of being cleanly settable from python code. But it might well be a YAGNI idea. I’ll ask python-dev about that. For the moment, I prefer the idea of a new sys.interactive attribute (boolean). $PYTHONSTARTUP doesn't work with -i Perhaps it should? -i means two things: interactive and inspect. The second meaning is used when you want python to execute a script or module just as usual but without exiting afterward, to let you inspect the state of the program. Supporting PYTHONSTARTUP would change these use cases and be an unacceptable change. BTW, drawback of doing any such setup in site.py: python -S would be unfriendly! People using -S don’t want the customizations done in site, so I don’t think there’s a problem here. python -S doesn't disable readline. What makes completions more of a customization than editing? The fact that it'd be implemented in site.py? If you go back to the first messages of this report, you’ll see that I wasn’t sure what a good location would be, and decided site because it did not look out of place. There isn’t a stronger rationale than that. One could argue that even now, site mixes disparate functionality: one program could wish to use -S to disable sys.path munging but run into bugs because the builtin exit is not defined anymore for example. Yes, obviously, if it's implemented in site.py, -S should disable it. We agree. My point was that it doesn't have to be implemented there. I really want to explore all options before renouncing to implement it in site. I’d like the implementation to be maintainable and shareable with other Python VMs. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5845 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue12922] StringIO and seek()
New submission from Terry J. Reedy tjre...@udel.edu:
First, there is a minor documentation issue.
15.2.3.1. I/O Base Classes
class io.IOBase
seek(offset, whence=SEEK_SET)
Change the stream position to the given byte offset
Since StringIO seeks by code units that should perhaps say 'byte or code unit
offset' or a separate note should be added to the doc entry for StringIO.
txt = StringIO('ab\U00010030')
txt.seek(3)
3
txt.write('x')
1
txt.getvalue()
'ab\ud800x'
The behavior problem is that seeking for StringIO does not work relative to the
current position or end.
IOError: Can't do nonzero cur-relative seeks
# Note: this message is wrong for end-relative seeks.
I presume this is inherited from an undocumented restriction on seeking with
text streams, because chars *might* be variably sized. However, I do not think
it should be. StringIO does not inherit the same reason for the restriction
(certainly not on wide builds, and on narrow builds, seeking from the beginning
is just as problematical). For StringIO, there is no option of 'opening in
binary (byte) mode instead' as there is for disk files. Since a StringIO object
is a wrapped array of fixed-size units, seeking from any position is as trivial
as it is from the beginning. And again, the current docs imply that it should
work.
Note that seeking from the beginning is not limited to the existing content.
Instead, skipped areas are filled with nulls.
from io import StringIO
txt = StringIO('0123456789')
txt.seek(15,0) # no problem with absolute seek
txt.write('xxx')
s = txt.getvalue()
print(ord(s[12]))
# 0
So that is not a reason to limit seeking from other positions either.

[issue12905] multiple errors in test_socket on OpenBSD
STINNER Victor victor.stin...@haypocalc.com added the comment:
I tried the following script on OpenBSD 5 with Python 3.3: ...
Bad news: the script doesn't hang if Python is build without threads.
Short C program to test interrupted syscalls:
-
#include signal.h
#include stdio.h
#include pthread.h
void
handler(int signum)
{
printf(HANDLER!\n);
}
void _noop()
{
}
int main()
{
int s = SIGALRM;
char buffer[1024];
int n;
static int dummy = 0;
pthread_t thread1;
pthread_create(thread1, NULL, (void *) _noop, dummy);
pthread_join(thread1, NULL);
signal(s, handler);
siginterrupt(s, 1);
alarm(1);
printf(read...\n);
n = read(0, buffer, 1024);
printf(read-%i\n, n);
return 0;
}
-
read() is interrupted after 1 second, it works.

[issue12905] multiple errors in test_socket on OpenBSD
STINNER Victor victor.stin...@haypocalc.com added the comment:
Oh, siginterrupt(SIGALRM, 0) doesn't work in a program linked to pthread.
Example:
#include signal.h
#include stdio.h
void
handler(int signum)
{ printf(HANDLER!\n); }
int main()
{
int s = SIGALRM;
char buffer[1024];
int n;
signal(s, handler);
siginterrupt(s, 0);
alarm(1);
printf(read...\n);
n = read(0, buffer, 1024);
printf(read-%i\n, n);
return 0;
}
This program ends after 1 second with read--1 if it is linked to pthread
(bug!), it hangs if it is not linked to pthread (ok).

Charles-François Natali neolo...@free.fr added the comment: The C signal handler is called, but the system call (read in this case) is not interrupted. That's what I thought... Bad news: the script doesn't hang if Python is build without threads. Makes sense. When linked with pthread, all I/O syscalls are actually non-blocking. read() is interrupted after 1 second, it works. Hmmm... Does it still work if you don't a create thread beforehand? Also, one difference is that Python uses sigaction to setup the signal handler. There might be subtle semantics change/bugs between signal/sigaction. Oh, siginterrupt(SIGALRM, 0) doesn't work in a program linked to pthread. You could try with sigaction/SA_RESTART.

STINNER Victor victor.stin...@haypocalc.com added the comment: read() is interrupted after 1 second, it works. Does it still work if you don't a create thread beforehand? Yes, the read() is also interrupted as expected if no thread is created. one difference is that Python uses sigaction to setup the signal handler If the handler is installed using the following code, read() is interrupted: -- sigemptyset(sa.sa_mask); sa.sa_handler = handler; sa.sa_flags = 0; sigaction(SIGALRM, sa, NULL); -- Using sa.sa_flags=SA_RESTART, read() hangs (it is not interrupted). Python uses sigaction with flags=0. You could try with sigaction/SA_RESTART. Using SA_RESTART, read() is not interrupted. But if the program is linked to pthread, read() is always interrupted: with sa_flags=0 or sa_flags=SA_RESTART. But OpenBSD's pthread implementation has severe limitations/bugs. rthread doc contains: Future work: Quite simply, signal handling is one the most complicated aspects of threads to get right.

[issue12909] Inconsistent exception usage in PyLong_As* C functions
Nadeem Vawda nadeem.va...@gmail.com added the comment: Attached is an updated patch with tests. There don't seem to be any tests for PyLong_AsS[s]ize_t() and PyLong_AsDouble(), so I added new ones for this issue. They should still be expanded on at some point in the future, but for the meanwhile this should be sufficient. I'm not sure whether it would be good to add information about the TypeError to the docs. Yeah, that doesn't seem necessary; raising TypeError in this sort of situation is sufficiently typical behavior that explicitly documenting it feels redundant. -- assignee: - nadeem.vawda Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file23110/pylong-exceptions.diff ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue12909 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue5149] syntactic sugar: type coercion on pointer assignment
Vlad Riscutia riscutiav...@gmail.com added the comment: I believe there is a deeper issue here in ctypes design. Basically we provide both c_char_p and POINTER(c_char) which should behave exactly the same since both are the equivalent of char* in C but internally they have different implementations. c_char_p is considered a simple type and I believe supports some conversions to and from Python strings while POINTER(c_char) is considered a pointer type which supports assignment from array etc. I think a better fix would be to deprecate p_char_p or make it an equivalent of POINTER(c_char), otherwise we will have to do work on c_char_p to make it more like POINTER(c_char) when issues like this get opened and probably also make POINTER(c_char) more like c_char_p. Why not just have POINTER(c_char) which works as expected? I don't have all the historical context on why this pseudo-simple type was provided but I saw a couple of issues where people expect it to behave like a C char* but it won't because it is implemented as a convenience type with limited support. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue5149 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue11677] make test has horrendous performance on an ecryptfs
Jason Gerard DeRose jder...@novacut.com added the comment: Barry, I'm suspicious there might be more to the performance issue than just the ecryptfs overhead. While experimenting with a read benchmark, I just happened to notice that when reading from an ecryptfs filesystem, the CPU usage is unusually high in the *python3* process. For example: ./benchmark.py /home/.dmedia = 149 MB per second = top shows 22-24% CPU usage ./benchmark.py /home/jderose/.dmedia = 38.9 MB per second = top shows 79-85% CPU usage It's the same physical drive in both cases, but the one in /home/jderose is ecryptfs. If it was just ecryptfs overhead, wouldn't there be lower CPU utilization in the python3 process, as there would be a lower throughput coming from the kernel, more time waiting on IO? In both cases, there were 56 files, for a total of 19.5 GB. I ran this on 64-bit Ubuntu Oneiric, Python 3.2.2.

[issue12870] Regex object should have introspection methods
Matt Chaput m...@whoosh.ca added the comment: Ezio, no offense, but I think it's safe to say you've completely misunderstood this bug. It is not about explaining what a regex matches or optimizing the regex. Read the last sentences of the two paragraphs explaining the proposed methods for the use cases. This is about allowing MY CODE to programmatically get certain information about a regex object to allow it to limit the number of times it has to call regex.match(). AFAIK there's no good way to get this information about a regex object without adding these methods or building my own pure-Python regex interpreter, which would be both Herculean and pointless. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue12870 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
