[issue12067] Doc: remove errors about mixed-type comparisons.

[issue15958] bytes.join() should allow arbitrary buffer objects
Ezio Melotti added the comment: Attached patch adds support for memoryviews to bytes.join: b''.join([memoryview(b'foo'), b'bar']) b'foobar' The implementation currently has some duplication, because it does a first pass to calculate the total size to allocate, and another pass to create the result that calculates the individual sizes again. Py_SIZE(item) can't be used here for memoryviews, so during the first pass it's now necessary to check for memoryviews and extract the len from the memoryview buffer, and then do it again during the second pass. If necessary this could be optimized/improved. I also tried to check for multi-dimensional and non-contiguous buffers, but I didn't manage to obtain a failure so I removed the check for now. More tests should probably be added to cover these cases, and possibly the patch should be adjusted accordingly. If/when the patch is OK I'll do the same for bytearrays. -- keywords: +patch nosy: +ezio.melotti stage: needs patch - patch review Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file27257/issue15958.diff ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15958 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue10044] small int optimization
Martin v. Löwis added the comment: x+1 x and v = array[0] are not the same checks. In the first test, x is used in both parts. I don't understand. The consequences of undefined behavior are really difficult to understand, it seems. A compiler which evaluates both relational expressions unconditionally to true would be conforming to the C language definition. The reason for that has been said several times before, but let me repeat them. Mathematically, x+1 x for any real number, so it seems natural to assume that this can be determined to be true statically. However, what if x+1 overflows? Shouldn't then it evaluate to false? Not necessarily if x is signed. Then the behavior of overflow is undefined, and *any* result of the comparison would be conforming to the standard: the overflow may trap, the expression may evaluate to false, or the expression may evaluate to true, or your hard disk may get erased - all of these would be conforming to the C language definition. For v = array[0], this is the same issue. If v points into the array, the expression is true. If v doesn't point into the array, the behavior is undefined, so the compiler may chose to give false, or to give true, or to actually compare the pointers as integers, or to erase your hard disk. Of these possible behaviors, only two are plausible. For x+1x, it may be that the compiler actually generates code to perform the addition and the comparison, or it may statically decide that the expression is always true. For v array[0], the compiler may either generate code to perform the comparison, or statically decide that the expression is true. Either implementation would be correct - it's not that the compiler is optimizing incorrectly. In the specific case, a compiler might infer that _PyLong_IS_SMALL_INT is always true, which would give incorrect results in Python. However, it is the patch which is incorrect, not the compiler. I recommend to close the issue as rejected. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10044 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue10044] small int optimization
Larry Hastings added the comment: I must be missing something--because I thought Python *already* depended on this apparently-undefined behavior. The small-block object allocator in Objects/obmalloc.c determines whether a pointer belongs to a particular arena using exactly this trick. I quote from the gigantic comment at the top of that file: Let B be the arena base address associated with the pool, B = arenas[(POOL)-arenaindex].address. Then P belongs to the arena if and only if B = P B + ARENA_SIZE Subtracting B throughout, this is true iff 0 = P-B ARENA_SIZE This test is implemented as the following macro: #define Py_ADDRESS_IN_RANGE(P, POOL)\ ((arenaindex_temp = (POOL)-arenaindex) maxarenas \ (uptr)(P) - arenas[arenaindex_temp].address (uptr)ARENA_SIZE \ arenas[arenaindex_temp].address != 0) Why is that permissible but _PyLong_IS_SMALL_INT is not? -- nosy: +larry ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10044 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue1602] windows console doesn't print or input Unicode
Drekin added the comment: I have finished a solution working for me. It bypasses standard Python interactive interpreter and uses its own repl based on code.interact(). This repl is activated by an ugly hack since PYTHONSTARTUP doesn't apply when some file is run (python -i somefile.py). Why it works like that? Startup script could find out if a file is run or not. If anybody knows how to get rid of time.sleep() used for wait for KeyboardInterrupt or how to get rid of PromptHack, please let me know.

Mark Dickinson added the comment: Ah: nice catch, Larry. I would say that the obmalloc case *shouldn't* be permissible; however, it's already there, and changing that would be an involved task that would also likely risk introducing new bugs.

[issue15958] bytes.join() should allow arbitrary buffer objects
Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: I think you should keep the Py_buffers alive in an array, and only release them at the end (it may also be slightly faster to do so). However allocation of this array may considerably slow down the function. We may need the special-case for bytes and bytearray.

[issue9720] zipfile writes incorrect local file header for large files in zip64
Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: No, on the contrary, it is not such easy to fix, and the patch is incorrect. Sorry that it is not clear either. The size of the header with extra args depends on the size of the file. The file size can be changed in the process of compressing, and compressed size may be larger than uncompressed size, exceeding 32-bit boundary. Rewriting the header with extra args, we can overwrite compressed data. I was put off the issue for further more careful research. Thanks for the reminder. One solution is always (even for smallest files) to write 64-bit sizes when allowZip64 is true. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue9720 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue15276] unicode format does not really work in Python 2.x

[issue12067] Doc: remove errors about mixed-type comparisons.
Terry J. Reedy added the comment: You are right, I did not look deep enough. I was fooled by the conversion of NotImplemented, returned from object.__le__, etc, to TypeError. Sorry for that noise. For comparison and arithmetic, the actual alternative to defining a function that returns NotImplemented seems to be to not define it at all. class C(): def __ge__(self, other): return True def __add__(self, other): return 44 __radd__ = __add__ class O(): pass # removed NotImplemented defs c = C() o = O() print(c = o, o = c) # True True print(c + o, o + c) # 44 44 (I looked at the codes for binary_op1 in abstract.c and do_richcompare in object.c and do not yet see any effective difference between not defined and a NotImplemented return.)

[issue10044] small int optimization
Martin v. Löwis added the comment: Why is that permissible but _PyLong_IS_SMALL_INT is not? It's *permissable* primarily because it is there. There are many places in Python which invoke undefined behavior already (most notably wrt. signed integers); we should strive to eliminate them. OTOH, obmalloc clearly makes a lot of assumptions on the hardware architecture (including the assumption that there is page-based virtual memory, etc). It's a memory allocator, that gives permission to make such assumptions. If it turns out that they break on some system, obmalloc cannot be used there - hence usage of obmalloc is still a compile-time option. In addition, for the specific macros: it's easy to see that a compiler may optimize _PyLong_IS_SMALL_INT as true by simple static analysis. For Py_ADDRESS_IN_RANGE, the same static analysis is not possible, since the memory doesn't come from a declared array. It would require whole-program analysis to determine that .address always points to a memory block with ARENA_SIZE bytes. If a compiler manages to figure it out, obmalloc cannot be used on that system (and if that happens, I'll recommend to drop or revise obmalloc altogether, perhaps in favor of a system pool allocator). -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10044 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue15997] NotImplemented needs to be documented
Terry J. Reedy added the comment: I was wrong about TypeError; forget that. The seeming equivalent to 'return NotImplement' is not defining the method. My confusion stemed from the fact that NotImplemented returned from special methods gets intercepted and converted to TypeError exceptions by the operator functions that call them -- unless there is an alternate path *and* the alternate does not also return NotImplemented. Changing will try reflected operation to will return the result of the reflected operation called on the swapped arguments is wrong as the latter is not completely correct. If the fallback also returns NotImplemented, it is ignored and TypeError is raised the same as if the fallback did not exist. But as Martin said, the details belong in operator documentation. I would like to more closely parallel the None entry, which has It is used to signify the absence of a value in many situations, e.g. it is returned from functions that don’t explicitly return anything. by replacing Numeric methods and rich comparison methods may return this value if they do not implement the operation for the operands provided. (The interpreter will then try the reflected operation, or some other fallback, depending on the operator.) with It is used to signify that a method does not implement the operation requested for the operands provided. For example, the special methods for arithmetic and and rich comparison may return NotImplemented, and when they do, the interpreter will try the reversed or reflected operation. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue15997 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
