      pygolang v0.0.5 · c5c3071b
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      This release is driven by wendelin.core v2 needs with one of the changes
      being that now most of the library was moved into nogil code and can be
      used fully from inside nogil world(*). Python modules are now just wrappers
      of their nogil counterparts. The way for Python and nogil worlds to
      communicate is also provided.
      
      The move to nogil required many other enhancements along the way. Please
      see CHANGELOG for overview.
      
      The move to nogil brought some speedup automatically.
      Below are benchmark results of this release compared to pygolang v0.0.4
      (1573d101) for python-level benchmarks (we have only those at present):

      workgroup_* changes for thread runtime is the speedup I am talking about.
      defer/func_call slowdown is due to added exception chaining. We did not
      optimize Python-level defer yet, and if/when that would be needed, it should
      be possible to optimize by moving pydefer implementation into Cython.
      
      (*) go and channels were moved into nogil world in Pygolang v0.0.3 +
      v0.0.4 . Now it is the rest of the library that was moved with packages
      like context, time, sync etc.
      
      wendelin.core v2 needs nogil to run pinner thread on client side to
      support isolation property in cooperation with wcfs: since there is a
      `client -> wcfs -> pinner` loop:
      
            - - - - - -
           |           |
              pinner <------.
           |           |   wcfs
              client -------^
           |           |
            - - - - - -
           client process
      
      the pinner thread would deadlock if it tries to take the GIL because
      client thread can be holding GIL already while accessing wcfs-mmaped
      memory (think doing e.g. `x = A[i]` in Python).

      readme: Turn package references into links · 37ae291f
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      For base functionality we have overview in the readme itself, but for
      packages we have only their listing with brief overview and no
      documentation for in-package functionality.
      
      Let's have at least links to .h/.pxd/.py where package functionality is
      documented.

      golang: Fix defer exception chaining in the presence of subchains · 1477dd02
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      A deferred function can raise exception and this exception itself can
      have .__context__ - consider for example if B1 is raised and its chain
      is B1->B2->B3. Before calling that deferred function, we save
      then-current exception A1 into GoFrame.exc_ctx and link-to .exc_ctx after
      the call. We were previously trying to link-to .exc_ctx from raised
      exception itself - i.e. B1 in the above example which is not correct:
      B1 was raised while B2 was being raised ... etc and it was B3 who was
      raised after A1. The consequence was that A1 was list, since B1 already
      had non-empty .__context__
      
      -> Fix it by linking-to A1 from B3, not from B1. In other words by
      linking-to .exc_ctx chain from tail of exception chain of raised
      exception.
      
      We can be sure that updated test is correct because it passes under
      Python3 where exception chaining is implemented natively.

      golang: Fix defer exception chaining for regular exceptions raised from under @func · 06cac90b
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      Defer support for exception chaining on Python2 (see bb9a94c3 "golang:
      Teach defer to chain exceptions (PEP 3134) even on Python2") simulates
      PEP 3134 by manually setting and chaining exc .__context__, .__cause__
      and .__traceback__: if exceptions are thrown by several deferred
      functions they are linked into exception chain via .__context__
      attribute. Defer support in @func also makes sure that any exception
      that comes out of a function has all those PEP 3134 attributes and
      presets them to their default values if exception object did not have
      them initially. In particular .__context__ is preset to None for first
      raised exception.
      
      There was a logic error in chaining handling: .__context__ was glued to
      previously raised exception only if current exception object did not
      have .__context__ attribute at all. And this was failing to chain them
      if current exception was raised from under another function wrapped in
      @func, because GoFrame wrapping that function makes sure to set
      curexc.__context__=None and oops - it was not changed later.
      
      -> Fix chaining implementation by gluing .__context__ either if there is
      no such attribute in current exception, or if .__context__ is None.
      
      This is correct to do since .__context__, by its definition, represents
      implicitly / automatically chained exceptions - contrary to .__cause__
      which is explicitly set and would be incorrect to automatically change
      from None to something. We also know that the end result is the same as
      Python3 behaviour since updated tests (see bellow) pass OK also when run
      under Python3 where exceptions chaining is implemented by Python runtime
      natively.
      
      Update test_defer_excchain() in golang_test.py, which verifies how
      raised exceptions are chained.
      
      No need to update testprog/golang_test_defer_excchain.{py,txt} since the
      test there verifies that our traceback dumper is correctly hooked into
      Python interpreter - where we know that exceptions are already chained
      correctly and we verify only that automatic traceback dump takes this
      chaining into account.

      golang: Fix defer traceback tests when run somewhere under symlink · 7faaecbc
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      Since realpath was used to find out pygolang dir, it will give different
      prefix compared to what actual prefix of __file__ is if __file__ was
      imported through some symlinked directory. And it is the actual
      __file__ that is included into traceback - not its realpath'ed version.
      
      This was breaking for example like this on py27-gevent tox tests:

      libgolang: Fix globals atexit race condition of ~refptr vs access from another thread · fd2a6fab
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      Until now we were defining errors like this:
      
          const error ErrSomething  = errors::New("abc");
      
      However there is a problem here: the runtime will call ErrSomething
      destructor on program exit, and for refptr<T> the destructor does 2
      things: a) decrefs the object, and b) switches embedded pointer to NULL;
      
      If another thread is still running both "a" and "b" can become race
      conditions if that T2 uses ErrSomething via e.g. just
      
          ...
          if (err == ErrSomething)
              ...
      
      Here is, for example TSAN report about ErrPyStopped usage when accessed by timer thread:

      libpyxruntime: Teach PyFunc to report Python exception after the call · a36efe6d
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      - Add PyError class that wraps Python exception;
      - change PyFunc::operator() return from void -> to error, which might be
        either PyError or special error indicating that Python interpreter is
        stopped.
      - Provide way to reraise that Python exception.
      
      We will need to see which exception, if any, PyFunc call raised in
      sync.PyWorkGroup, where this python-level exception will need to be
      propagated to PyWorkGroup.wait() and reraised from there.

      libpyxruntime: Fix deadlock in pygil_ensure() · 73182038
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      pygil_ensure() was taking pyexitedMu and then GIL, which can deadlock
      via AB BA scenario if pygil_ensure() is also called in another thread
      with GIL already held.
      
      -> Fix it by always taking GIL with pyexitedMu released.
      
      Without the fix the test added always hangs with thread backend, e.g.
      like this:

      time: Factor-out PyFunc into shared library libpyxruntime.so · 4fc6e49c
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      Commit b073f6df (time: Move/Port timers to C++/Pyx nogil) added C++
      level PyFunc as a way to call Python function from under nogil code.
      We will soon need this functionality for sync.WorkGroup too, so move it
      into shared place.
      
      We move into regular library - not a pyx module (e.g. golang.pyx) -
      because for pyx modules linking is done at import time by specially
      generated code, while we need the linker support to automatically
      resolve e.g. calls to PyFunc::operator() from inside std::function.

      libgolang/{gevent,thread}: Preserve Python-level exception in runtime calls · 47fac0a9
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      Gevent runtime uses python-level calls internally which might interfere
      with current python state. For example if current python exception is
      set, and e.g. go or makesema runtime call is made, the following
      happens:
      
          golang/golang_test.py::test_pyx_runtime_vs_pyexc RuntimeError: abc
      
          The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:
      
          SystemError: <class 'gevent.__semaphore.Semaphore'> returned a result with an error set
          Exception ignored in: 'golang.runtime._runtime_gevent._sema_alloc'
          SystemError: <class 'gevent.__semaphore.Semaphore'> returned a result with an error set
          terminate called after throwing an instance of 'golang::PanicError'
            what():  makesema: alloc failed
          Fatal Python error: Aborted
      
      -> Fix all functions in the runtimes that work at Python level to
         save/restore Python-level exception on entry/exit.
      
      This is mostly gevent runtime, but also a couple of non-posix fallbacks in
      thread runtime.
      
      The bug was there from day 1 of runtimes - from ce8152a2 (pyx api:
      Provide sleep), f971a2a8 (pyx api: Provide go) and 69db91bf (libgolang:
      Add internal semaphores).

      pyx.build: Allow to use custom build_ext · b4feee6f
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      setuptools_dso hardcodes to use its own build_ext in its setup.
      We amend that build_ext and inject our own version carefully while
      setup() is run - see 7ae8c4f3 (pyx.build: Allow to combine C and C++
      sources in one extension). However, currently, if user uses cmdclass =
      {'build_ext': ...} in his own setup, this will be ignored and
      overwritten by golang.pyx.build.build_ext . One example where this
      breaks things is wendelin.core which hooks into build_ext to first
      configure/build CCAN before any extension:

      libgolang: Provide select(vector<_selcase>) · 66e1e756
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      We already provide select for array and std::initializer_list. However
      when cases are constructed at runtime dynamically both array and
      initializer_list are not convenient to use.
      
      -> Provide select() overload that accepts vector<_selcase>.
      
      This functionality will soon be used in C version of context package.
