All 5 flagged items were valid (4 real bugs + 1 dead assert),
- fix an inverted `sys.version_info < (3, 14)` guard in
`ipc._linux` — the "`cffi` has no 3.14 support" import note now
fires on 3.14+ (where it applies) instead of on older pys.
- use `os.environ.get('PYTHON_COLORS')` in the `sync_bp` example
so it doesn't `KeyError` when run outside the test harness.
- correct `dump_task_tree()`'s docstring: the `/tmp` + `/dev/tty`
tee is gated on `write_file`/`write_tty`, not "unconditional".
- tidy the `ActorTooSlowError` message spacing in `cancel_actor`.
- replace a tautological `applied is True or applied is False` in
`test_patches` with `isinstance(applied, bool)` (the value is
order-dependent across the module).

With a seminal patch fixing `trio`'s `WakeupSocketpair.drain()` which
can busy-loop due to lack of handling `EOF`.
New `tractor.trionics.patches` subpkg housing defensive monkey-patches
for upstream `trio` bugs we've encountered while running `tractor`
— particularly as of recent, fork-survival edge cases that haven't been
filed/fixed upstream yet. Each patch is idempotent, version-gated via
`is_needed()`, and carries a `# REMOVE WHEN:` marker pointing at the
upstream release whose adoption allows deletion.
Subpkg layout + per-patch contract documented in
`tractor/trionics/patches/README.md` — `apply()` / `is_needed()`
/ `repro()` API, registry pattern via `_PATCHES` in `__init__.py`,
single-call entry point `apply_all()`.
First patch, `_wakeup_socketpair`:
- `trio`'s `WakeupSocketpair.drain()` loops on `recv(64KB)` and exits
ONLY on `BlockingIOError`, NEVER on `recv() == b''` (peer-closed FIN).
- under `fork()`-spawning backends the COW-inherited socketpair fds
& `_close_inherited_fds()` teardown can leave a `WakeupSocketpair`
instance whose write-end is closed, and `drain()` then **spins forever
in C with no Python checkpoints**,
- this obviously burns 100% CPU and no signal delivery.
Standalone repro:
from trio._core._wakeup_socketpair import WakeupSocketpair
ws = WakeupSocketpair()
ws.write_sock.close()
ws.drain() # spins forever
Patch is one-line — break the drain loop on b'' EOF.
Manifested as two distinct test failures:
- `tests/test_multi_program.py::test_register_duplicate_name` hung at
100% CPU on the busy-loop directly (fork child's worker thread)
- `tests/test_infected_asyncio.py::test_aio_simple_error` Mode-A
deadlock — busy-loop wedged trio's scheduler inside `start_guest_run`,
both threads parked in `epoll_wait`, no TCP connect-back to parent
ever happened.
Same patch fixes both. Restored 99.7% pass rate on full
suite under `--spawn-backend=main_thread_forkserver`
(was hanging indefinitely before).
Wired into `tractor._child._actor_child_main` via `apply_all()` BEFORE
any trio runtime init. Harmless on non-fork backends.
Conc-anal write-ups, including strace + py-spy evidence:
- `ai/conc-anal/trio_wakeup_socketpair_busy_loop_under_fork_issue.md`
- `ai/conc-anal/infected_asyncio_under_main_thread_forkserver_hang_issue.md`
Regression tests in `tests/trionics/test_patches.py`: each test asserts
(a) the bug exists pre-patch (or is fixed upstream — skip cleanly), (b)
the patch fixes it with a SIGALRM wall-clock cap so a regression hangs
loud instead of silently.
TODO:
- [ ] file the upstream `python-trio/trio` issue + PR.
- [ ] use the `repro()` callable in `_wakeup_socketpair.py` IS the issue
body's evidence section.
