[issue15463] test_faulthandler can fail if install path is too long
STINNER Victor victor.stin...@gmail.com added the comment: faulthandler has arbitrary limits to avoid an unlimited loop if some data are corrupted. #define MAX_STRING_LENGTH 100 #define MAX_FRAME_DEPTH 100 #define MAX_NTHREADS 100 The string limit is maybe too short. MAX_STRING_LENGTH can be set to 500 characters, what do you think? We may also add a function to change these limits at runtime. Without investigating further, my instinct would be to prefer to truncate in the middle, if possible, otherwise truncate the head of the path, rather than truncate the tail. faulthandler does not trust anything, including the length of the string. Change the limit to 500 characters should be safer. Remember that faulthandler is called when something really bad happens, like a segfault or an illegal instruction. faulthandler may be less strict when it is called explicitly, ex: faulthandler.dump_traceback(). -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15463 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue12556] Disable size checks in mmap.mmap()
Ricky Ng-Adam rnga...@lophilo.com added the comment: I find this resolution to rejected somewhat questionable. It has been pointed that the mmap behavior in Python differs from the behavior of the underlying mmap as defined by the system documentation. I think the incorrect assumption here is that mmap is used to only map real files. In the case of virtual files such those found in sysfs and debugfs in Linux, mmap is a general operation that lets the underlying driver arbitrarily map to other memory regions. As an example, we are developing a new hardware platform. To maximize performance, instead of creating a file-based interface to the Linux driver, we are experimenting with mmap'ing the hardware memory address to the userspace by implementing the mmap operation in our Linux kernel module. This mmap operation works in C and in Node.JS, but not in Python where it can't get past the underlying debugfs (or sysfs) file having a size of 0... -- nosy: +rngadam ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue12556 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue15466] Python/importlib.h is different on 32bit and 64bit
New submission from Amaury Forgeot d'Arc amaur...@gmail.com: As shown in a patch in issue15431, frozen.c does not output the same data on different platforms. The first difference looks like this (extracted from the patch): -101,73,255,255,255,255,0,0,0,0,40,10,0,0,0,117, +101,108,3,0,0,0,255,127,255,127,3,0,40,10,0,0, On first row, 'I' followed by 0x on 8 bytes. On second row, 'l' followed by 3 followed by 0x (in 3 chunks of 15 bits). The Python number 0x is marshalled with TYPE_INT64 when SIZEOF_LONG4 (Unix 64bit), and with TYPE_LONG on other platforms (32bit, or win64) The C long type has much less importance in 3.x Python, because PyIntObject does not exist anymore. I suggest to remove this distinction, and allow TYPE_INT64 on all platforms. I don't see any compatibility issue, on unmarshalling both methods produce the same object. I'll try to suggest a patch later today. -- messages: 166559 nosy: amaury.forgeotdarc, pitrou priority: high severity: normal status: open title: Python/importlib.h is different on 32bit and 64bit ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15466 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue15364] sysconfig confused by relative paths
Ronald Oussoren ronaldousso...@mac.com added the comment:
The current patch should be fine, although it is IMHO not the long-term
solution. For installed python's get_config_var('srcdir') still lies, but now
at least returns slightly more sane path.
As I noted before the real problem is that it is not clear which config_vars
are usable in which situations. One example is 'srcdir': this value is only
useful in the build tree and there currently is no clean way to signal that you
are retrieving a value that is not useful. Another example is 'RUNSHARED',
that's also only useable when building python.
I'm not sure what the right solution for the larger issue is. It might be good
enough to document generally useful config_vars and warn that other's might
exist but might not be safe to use, on the other hand it might be better to
explicitly reduce the set of config_vars to something sane (and document which
those are and when they can be used)

[issue15471] importlib's __import__() argument style nit
New submission from Barry A. Warsaw ba...@python.org: Very minor style nit. In general, it's not considered good style to use mutable objects in default argument values. importlib's _bootstrap.__import__() does just this for its globals, locals, and fromlist arguments. The implementation currently doesn't abuse this, or allow any of the extensions to abuse, it may be possible in the future to naively cause negative side-effects due to mutate the keyword arguments. It would be better to use non-mutable default values in the argument list. -- assignee: brett.cannon components: Library (Lib) keywords: easy messages: 166585 nosy: barry, brett.cannon priority: low severity: normal status: open title: importlib's __import__() argument style nit versions: Python 3.3 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15471 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Antoine Pitrou pit...@free.fr added the comment: Well, the traceback shows it's stuck trying to read from the network. It doesn't mean it's stuck in the ssl library; unless your script was taking 100% CPU when you killed it, it was most likely waiting for the peer (a SMTP server, I guess) to respond.

[issue15473] importlib no longer uses imp.NullImporter
New submission from Barry A. Warsaw ba...@python.org: I think this is mostly just out of date documentation, but I want to get Brett's feedback. The sys module has this to say about sys.path_importer_cache: A dictionary acting as a cache for finder objects. The keys are paths that have been passed to sys.path_hooks and the values are the finders that are found. If a path is a valid file system path but no explicit finder is found on sys.path_hooks then None is stored to represent the implicit default finder should be used. If the path is not an existing path then imp.NullImporter is set. Notice that last sentence. AFAICT, this is not true in importlib. I can find no relevant reference to imp.NullImporter in _bootstrap.py. Maybe we should just remove this from the documentation? OTOH, there are a few tests that check semantics related to imp.NullImporter found in sys.path_importer_cache, so clearly there are API constraints. See also runpy.py, which gives some semantics to finding this importer in the cache. Any suggestions for better wording about imp.NullImporter and sys.path_importer_cache? I'd like to add this to my rewritten import machinery docs, but I'm not exactly sure what to say about it. -- assignee: brett.cannon components: Documentation messages: 166595 nosy: barry, brett.cannon, eric.smith, ncoghlan priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: importlib no longer uses imp.NullImporter versions: Python 3.3 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15473 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

The sentence Included are the FIPS secure hash algorithms SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, and SHA512 (defined in FIPS 180-2) as well as RSA’s MD5 algorithm also conveys the idea that MD5 is not part of the secure bunch.

Terry J. Reedy tjre...@udel.edu added the comment: I basically agree with Marc-André. Indeed, I think Acks, at least, should contain names in native spelling plus, if that is not Latin-based, a romanization. Three reasons: 1. I want English-speaking Python programmers to feel welcome to contribute and be acknowledged with what is visibly their native name. 2. I want people to be able to looks at the contributors list and see that Python is an international project. 3. Transliterations are ofter lossy, and in both directions. Romanizations do not necessarily tell contributors' compatriots how to address them in their mutual native language. If stdlib .py files are still restricted to romanizations, those could at least be looked up in Acks.

[issue15451] PATH is not honored in subprocess.Popen in win32
Terry J. Reedy tjre...@udel.edu added the comment: Richard is correct. From 17.1.1.2. Popen Constructor If env is not None, it must be a mapping that defines the environment variables for the new process; these are used instead of inheriting the current process’ environment, which is the default behavior. (followed by Window note about SystemRoot.) The paragraph about shell=True in 17.1.1.1. Frequently Used Arguments suggests that that might work (but see warning). -- nosy: +terry.reedy resolution: - invalid stage: - committed/rejected status: open - closed ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15451 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue15295] Document PEP 420 namespace packages
Barry A. Warsaw ba...@python.org added the comment: First draft is complete, along with updates to the importlib abcs for the new protocols. You'll see the language reference has a new importmachinery.rst file which describes finding and loading modules. You'll see that the import statement docs have been simplified to point to this for step (1), and now only describe the name binding operations, i.e. step (2). Various other documentation updates are made, including new glossary terms. Everything lives in features/pep-420 in the importdocs branch. I don't know if it's possible to just attach that branch to this tracker issue. I'd rather not post a patch right now since that's much less convenient for the inevitable deluge of comments I'm sure I'll get. Off to email python-dev now. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15295 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue15444] Incorrectly written contributor's names
Chris Jerdonek chris.jerdo...@gmail.com added the comment: The idea also to include a romanization is a good one. While working on issue 15437, it occurred to me that storing the names in a structured form might come in handy. This would let us do things like list the username(s) associated with each contributor alongside their name (and access this information programmatically). And perhaps also include information like the following: http://www.python.org/dev/committers -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15444 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue15457] consistent treatment of generator terminology
Terry J. Reedy tjre...@udel.edu added the comment: I think the current entry calling a generator function a generator is wrong, so I appreciate your patch. Generator functions return instances of class 'generator'*. I personally refer to generators as generator-iterators about as often as I refer to lists as list-sequences. (Generators implement the iterator protocol; lists implement the sequence protocol.) * I personally think of a generator function as defining a virtual subclass of class generator and returning instances of that (vitual) subclass. The gf does this# by setting the gi_code attribute of instances to the code object compiled from its body. (Or perhaps it calls the generator class with its code object as parameter. In any case, this is what the special gf.__call__ method does instead of executing its code attribute. The call protocol makes this magic easy.) The generator subclass, then, is all instances with the same gi_code attribute. The name of the 'subclass' is the name of the generator function, which is also g.gi_code.co_name. # Although 'gi_code' does not have a leading underscore, I am not sure whether it is intended to be public or if the mechanism is CPython specific. It *is' the only way to get the gf/subclass name from the generator. What I think still needs correction is generator then controls the execution of a generator function. The generator function has already run to create the generator. What is controlled is the execution of the code object compiled from the body of a gf. And the 'generator function' in question is not just 'a generator function' but 'the generator function that created the generator'. So I suggest as more correct something like generator then controls the execution of the [code object compiled from the] body of the generator function that created it The part in [] is true but might be omitted if it seems too much in the context. -- nosy: +terry.reedy versions: +Python 2.7 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15457 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
