Give each background subscriber runner its own teardown event and
suppress only `ContextCancelled` relayed by the root actor after that
portal's explicit cancellation begins.
Let generic remote errors, foreign cancellation and cancellation
before teardown escape the local task nursery so the test cannot pass
after a subscriber fails unexpectedly.
Review: PR #484 (GitHub Copilot and OpenCode)
https://github.com/goodboy/tractor/pull/484#discussion_r3858426546
(this patch was generated in some part by `opencode` using `gpt-5.6-sol` (`openai`))
Convention sweep (user req): all `tractor.open_nursery()`
bindings in test + example code use `an: ActorNursery` (`n`,
`nursery` + several tractor-nurseries confusingly named `tn`
are renamed); `trio.open_nursery()` bindings stay `tn` (incl.
`concurrent_actors_primes.py`'s inner trio nursery, renamed
`n` -> `tn` to match).
Purely mechanical, function-scoped renames — prose "nursery"/
"an" in docstrings/comments untouched; func-arg kwargs like
`portal.run(func, n=value)` untouched.
Gate: renamed test modules green on `trio`; full debugger suite
(28p/6s) + example-runner (21p) green.

`test_multi_actor_subs_arbiter_pub` used `run_in_actor()` to spawn
two forever-ish subscriber actors and hold their portals for a
later `cancel_actor()` (its `.result()` was commented out exactly
because `subs()` never cleanly returns). That deferred-spawn +
cancel shape isn't a blocking `to_actor.run()`, so convert to the
successor primitives (#477 removal),
- `start_actor()` per subscriber — keeps the portal for the
existing `cancel_actor()` teardown,
- run `subs()` on each via a background `Portal.run()` task in a
local `trio` nursery so both subscribe concurrently with the
test's `wait_for_actor` / topic checks,
- each bg runner swallows the `RemoteActorError`/`ContextCancelled`
that `cancel_actor()` relays; a trailing `tn.cancel_scope.cancel()`
drops any lingering runner.
Suite: 8 passed.

Adopt the `@pytest.mark.skipon_spawn_backend('subint',
reason=...)` marker (a617b521) across the suites
reproducing the `subint` GIL-contention / starvation
hang classes doc'd in `ai/conc-anal/subint_*_issue.md`.
Deats,
- Module-level `pytestmark` on full-file-hanging suites:
- `tests/test_cancellation.py`
- `tests/test_inter_peer_cancellation.py`
- `tests/test_pubsub.py`
- `tests/test_shm.py`
- Per-test decorator where only one test in the file
hangs:
- `tests/discovery/test_registrar.py
::test_stale_entry_is_deleted` — replaces the
inline `if start_method == 'subint': pytest.skip`
branch with a declarative skip.
- `tests/test_subint_cancellation.py
::test_subint_non_checkpointing_child`.
- A few per-test decorators are left commented-in-
place as breadcrumbs for later finer-grained unskips.
Also, some nearby tidying in the affected files:
- Annotate loose fixture / test params
(`pytest.FixtureRequest`, `str`, `tuple`, `bool`) in
`tests/conftest.py`, `tests/devx/conftest.py`, and
`tests/test_cancellation.py`.
- Normalize `"""..."""` → `'''...'''` docstrings per
repo convention on a few touched tests.
- Add `timeout=6` / `timeout=10` to
`@tractor_test(...)` on `test_cancel_infinite_streamer`
and `test_some_cancels_all`.
- Drop redundant `spawn_backend` param from
`test_cancel_via_SIGINT`; use `start_method` in the
`'mp' in ...` check instead.

(cherry picked from commit 4b2a0886c3)
(factored: dropped spawn-backend-only path: tests/test_subint_cancellation.py)
Since importing from our top level `conftest.py` is not scaleable
or as "future forward thinking" in terms of:
- LoC-wise (it's only one file),
- prevents "external" (aka non-test) example scripts from importing
content easily,
- seemingly(?) can't be used via abs-import if using
a `[tool.pytest.ini_options]` in a `pyproject.toml` vs.
a `pytest.ini`, see:
https://docs.pytest.org/en/8.0.x/reference/customize.html#pyproject-toml)
=> Go back to having an internal "testing" pkg like `trio` (kinda) does.
Deats:
- move generic top level helpers into pkg-mod including the new
`expect_ctxc()` (which i needed in the advanced faults testing script.
- move `@tractor_test` into `._testing.pytest` sub-mod.
- adjust all the helper imports to be a `from tractor._testing import <..>`
Rework `test_ipc_channel_break_during_stream()` and backing script:
- make test(s) pull `debug_mode` from new fixture (which is now
controlled manually from `--tpdb` flag) and drop the previous
parametrized input.
- update logic in ^ test for "which-side-fails" cases to better match
recently updated/stricter cancel/failure semantics in terms of
`ClosedResouruceError` vs. `EndOfChannel` expectations.
- handle `ExceptionGroup`s with expected embedded errors in test.
- better pendantics around whether to expect a user simulated KBI.
- for `examples/advanced_faults/ipc_failure_during_stream.py` script:
- generalize ipc breakage in new `break_ipc()` with support for diff
internal `trio` methods and a #TODO for future disti frameworks
- only make one sub-actor task break and the other just stream.
- use new `._testing.expect_ctxc()` around ctx block.
- add a bit of exception handling with `print()`s around ctxc (unused
except if 'msg' break method is set) and eoc cases.
- don't break parent side ipc in loop any more then once
after first break, checked via flag var.
- add a `pre_close: bool` flag to control whether
`MsgStreama.aclose()` is called *before* any ipc breakage method.
Still TODO:
- drop `pytest.ini` and add the alt section to `pyproject.py`.
-> currently can't get `--rootdir=` opt to work.. not showing in
console header.
-> ^ also breaks on 'tests' `enable_modules` imports in subactors
during discovery tests?
This resolves and completes #69 allowing all RPC invocation APIs to pass
function references directly instead of explicit `str` names for the
target namespace and function (this is still done implicitly
underneath). This brings us closer to `trio`'s task running API as well
as acknowledges that any inter-host RPC system (and API) will likely
need to be implemented on top of local RPC primitives anyway. Even if
this ends up **not** being true we can always go to "function stubs" as
part of our IAC protocol or, add a new method to do explicit namespace
calls: `.run_from_module()` or whatever everyone votes on.
Resolves#69
Further, this commit drops `Actor.statespace` from the entire system
since a user can easily get this same functionality using module
level variables. Fix docs to match all these changes (luckily mostly
already done due to example scripts referencing).
In combination with `.aclose()`-ing the async gen instance returned from
`Portal.run()` this demonstrates the python bug:
https://bugs.python.org/issue32526
I've commented out the line that triggers the bug for now since this
case provides motivation for adding our own `trio.abc.ReceiveMemoryChannel`
implementation to be used instead of async gens directly (returned from
`Portal.run()`) since the latter is **not** task safe.
