Such that it's set to whatever `Actor.reg_addrs: list[tuple]` is during
the actor's init-after-spawn guaranteeing each actor has at least the
registry infos from its parent. Ensure we read this if defined over
`_root._default_lo_addrs` in `._discovery` routines, namely
`.find_actor()` since it's the one API normally used without expecting
the runtime's `current_actor()` to be up.
Update the latest inter-peer cancellation test to use the `reg_addr`
fixture (and thus test this new runtime-vars value via `find_actor()`
usage) since it was failing if run *after* the infected `asyncio` suite
due to registry contact failure.
Since it's handy to be able to debug the *writing* of this instance var
(particularly when checking state passed down to a child in
`Actor._from_parent()`), rename and wrap the underlying
`Actor._reg_addrs` as a settable `@property` and add validation to
the `.setter` for sanity - actor discovery is a critical functionality.
Other tweaks:
- fix `.cancel_soon()` to pass expected argument..
- update internal runtime error message to be simpler and link to GH issues.
- use new `Actor.reg_addrs` throughout core.
Since we'd like to eventually allow a diverse set of transport
(protocol) methods and stacks, and a multi-peer discovery system for
distributed actor-tree applications, this reworks all runtime internals
to support multi-homing for any given tree on a logical host. In other
words any actor can now bind its transport server (currently only
unsecured TCP + `msgspec`) to more then one address available in its
(linux) network namespace. Further, registry actors (now dubbed
"registars" instead of "arbiters") can also similarly bind to multiple
network addresses and provide discovery services to remote actors via
multiple addresses which can now be provided at runtime startup.
Deats:
- adjust `._runtime` internals to use a `list[tuple[str, int]]` (and
thus pluralized) socket address sequence where applicable for transport
server socket binds, now exposed via `Actor.accept_addrs`:
- `Actor.__init__()` now takes a `registry_addrs: list`.
- `Actor.is_arbiter` -> `.is_registrar`.
- `._arb_addr` -> `._reg_addrs: list[tuple]`.
- always reg and de-reg from all registrars in `async_main()`.
- only set the global runtime var `'_root_mailbox'` to the loopback
address since normally all in-tree processes should have access to
it, right?
- `._serve_forever()` task now takes `listen_sockaddrs: list[tuple]`
- make `open_root_actor()` take a `registry_addrs: list[tuple[str, int]]`
and defaults when not passed.
- change `ActorNursery.start_..()` methods take `bind_addrs: list` and
pass down through the spawning layer(s) via the parent-seed-msg.
- generalize all `._discovery()` APIs to accept `registry_addrs`-like
inputs and move all relevant subsystems to adopt the "registry" style
naming instead of "arbiter":
- make `find_actor()` support batched concurrent portal queries over
all provided input addresses using `.trionics.gather_contexts()` Bo
- syntax: move to using `async with <tuples>` 3.9+ style chained
@acms.
- a general modernization of the code to a python 3.9+ style.
- start deprecation and change to "registry" naming / semantics:
- `._discovery.get_arbiter()` -> `.get_registry()`
If `stackscope` is importable and debug_mode is enabled then we by
default call and report `.devx.enable_stack_on_sig()` is set B)
This makes debugging unexpected (SIGINT ignoring) hangs a cinch!
We're passing a `extra_frames_up_when_async=2` now (from prior attempt
to hide `CancelScope.__exit__()` when `shield=True`) and thus both
`debug_func`s must accept it 🤦
On the brighter side found out that the `TypeError` from the call-sig
mismatch was actually being swallowed entirely so add some
`.exception()` msgs for such cases to at least alert the dev they broke
stuff XD
It's been on the todo for a while and I've given up trying to properly
hide the `trio.CancelScope.__exit__()` frame for now instead opting to
just `log.pdb()` a big apology XD
Users can obvi still just not use the flag and wrap `tractor.pause()` in
their own cs block if they want to avoid having to hit `'up'` in the pdb
REPL if needed in a cancelled task-scope.
Impl deatz:
- factor orig `.pause()` impl into new `._pause()` so that we can more tersely
wrap the original content depending on `shield: bool` input; only open
the cancel-scope when shield is set to avoid aforemented extra strack
frame annoyance.
- pass through `shield` to underlying `_pause` and `debug_func()` so we
can actually know when so log our apology.
- add a buncha notes to new `.pause()` wrapper regarding the inability
to hide the cancel-scope `.__exit__()`, inluding that overriding the
code in `trio._core._run.CancelScope` doesn't seem to solve the issue
either..
Unrelated `maybe_wait_for_debugger()` tweaks:
- don't read `Lock.global_actor_in_debug` more then needed, rename local
read var to `in_debug` (since it can also hold the root actor uid, not
just sub-actors).
- shield the `await debug_complete.wait()` since ideally we avoid the
root cancellation child-actors in debug even when the root calls this
func in a cancelled scope.
Since this was changed as part of overall project wide logging format
updates, and i ended up changing the both the crash and pause `.pdb()`
msgs to include some multi-line-ascii-"stuff", might as well make the
pre-prompt checks in the test suite more flexible to match.
As such, this exposes 2 new constants inside the `.devx._debug` mod:
- `._pause_msg: str` for the pre `tractor.pause()` header emitted via
`log.pdb()` and,
- `._crash_msg: str` for the pre `._post_mortem()` equiv when handling
errors in debug mode.
Adjust the test suite to use these values and thus make us more capable
to absorb changes in the future as well:
- add a new `in_prompt_msg()` predicate, very similar to `assert_before()`
but minus `assert`s which takes in a `parts: list[str]` to match
in the pre-prompt stdout.
- delegate to `in_prompt_msg()` in `assert_before()` since it was mostly
duplicate minus `assert`.
- adjust all previous `<patt> in before` asserts to instead use
`in_prompt_msg()` with separated pre-prompt-header vs. actor-name
`parts`.
- use new `._pause/crash_msg` values in all such calls including any
`assert_before()` cases.
Allow callers to stick in a header to the `.pdb()` level emitted msg(s)
such that any "waiting status" content is only shown if the caller
actually get's blocked waiting for the debug lock; use it inside the
`._spawn` sub-process reaper call.
Also, return early if `Lock.global_actor_in_debug == None` and thus
only enter the poll loop when actually needed, consequently raise
if we fall through the loop without acquisition.
When entered by the root actor avoid excessive polling cycles by,
- blocking on the `Lock.no_remote_has_tty: trio.Event` and breaking
*immediately* when set (though we should really also lock
it from the root right?) to avoid extra loops..
- shielding the `await trio.sleep(poll_delay)` call to avoid any local
cancellation causing the (presumably root-actor task) caller to move
on (possibly to cancel its children) and instead to continue
poll-blocking until the lock is actually released by its user.
- `break` the poll loop immediately if no remote locker is detected.
- use `.pdb()` level for reporting lock state changes.
Also add a #TODO to handle calls by non-root actors as it pertains to
Can be optionally enabled via a new `enable_stack_on_sig()` which will
swap in the SIGUSR1 handler. Much thanks to @oremanj for writing this
amazing project, it's thus far helped me fix some very subtle hangs
inside our new IPC-context cancellation machinery that would have
otherwise taken much more manual pdb-ing and hair pulling XD
Full credit for `dump_task_tree()` goes to the original project author
with some minor tweaks as was handed to me via the trio-general matrix
room B)
Slight changes from orig version:
- use a `log.pdb()` emission to pprint to console
- toss in an ex sh CLI cmd to trigger the dump from another terminal
using `kill` + `pgrep`.
Implement it like you'd expect using simply a wrapping
`trio.CancelScope` which is itself shielded by the input `shield: bool`
B)
There's seemingly still some issues with the frame selection when the
REPL engages and not sure how to resolve it yet but at least this does
indeed work for practical purposes. Still needs a test obviously!
Starting of with just a `typer` (and thus transitively `click`)
`typer.Typer.callback` hook which allows passthrough of the `--ll
<loglevel: str>` and `--pdb <debug_mode: bool>` flags for use when
building CLIs that use the runtime Bo
Still needs lotsa refinement and obviously better docs but, the doc
string for `load_runtime_vars()` shows how to use the underlying
`.devx._debug.open_crash_handler()` via a wrapper that can be passed the
`--pdb` flag and then enable debug mode throughout the entire actor
system.
Where `.devx` is "developer experience", a hopefully broad enough subpkg
name for all the slick stuff planned to augment working on the actor
runtime 💥
Move the `._debug` module into the new subpkg and adjust rest of core
code base to reflect import path change. Also add a new
`.devx._debug.open_crash_handler()` manager for wrapping any sync code
outside a `trio.run()` which is handy for eventual CLI addons for
popular frameworks like `click`/`typer`.
For whatever reason pdb(p), and in general, will show the frame of the
*next* python instruction/LOC on initial entry (at least using
`.set_trace()`), as such remove the `try/finally` block in the sync
code entrypoint `.pause_from_sync()`, and also since doesn't seem like
we really need it anyway.
Further, and to this end:
- enable hidden frames support in our default config.
- fix/drop/mask all the frame ref-ing/mangling we had prior since it's no
longer needed as well as manual `Lock` releasing which seems to work
already by having the `greenback` spawned task do it's normal thing?
- move to no `Union` type annots.
- hide all frames that can add "this is the runtime confusion" to
traces.
This works now for supporting a new `tractor.pause_from_sync()`
`tractor`-aware-replacement for `Pdb.set_trace()` from sync functions
which are also scheduled from our runtime. Uses `greenback` to do all
the magic of scheduling the bg `tractor._debug._pause()` task and
engaging the normal TTY locking machinery triggered by `await
tractor.breakpoint()`
Further this starts some public API renaming, making a switch to
`tractor.pause()` from `.breakpoint()` which IMO much better expresses
the semantics of the runtime intervention required to suffice
multi-process "breakpointing"; it also is an alternate name for the same
in computer science more generally: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakpoint
It also avoids using the same name as the `breakpoint()` built-in which
is important since there **is alot more going on** when you call our
equivalent API.
Deats of that:
- add deprecation warning for `tractor.breakpoint()`
- add `tractor.pause()` and a shorthand, easier-to-type, alias `.pp()`
for "pause-point" B)
- add `pause_from_sync()` as the new `breakpoint()`-from-sync-function
hack which does all the `greenback` stuff for the user.
Still TODO:
- figure out where in the runtime and when to call
`greenback.ensure_portal()`.
- fix the frame selection issue where
`trio._core._ki._ki_protection_decorator:wrapper` seems to be always
shown on REPL start as the selected frame..
