As per a lot of the recent refinements to `Context` cancellation, add
a new test case to replicate the original hang-on-cancel found with
`modden` when using a client actor to spawn a subactor in some other
tree where despite `Context.cancel()` being called the requesting client
would hang on the opened context with the server.
The specific scenario added here is to have,
- root actor spawns 2 children: a client and a spawn server.
- the spawn server opens with a spawn-request serve loop and begins to
wait for the client.
- client spawns and connects to the sibling spawn server, requests to
spawn a sub-actor, the "little bro", connects to it then does some
echo streaming, cancels the request with it's sibling (the spawn
server) which should in turn cancel the root's-grandchild and result
in a cancel-ack back to the client's `.open_context()`.
- root ensures that it can also connect to the grandchild (little bro),
do the same echo streaming, then ensure everything tears down
correctly after cancelling all the children.
More refinements to come here obvi in the specific cancellation
semantics and possibly causes.
Also tweaks the other tests in suite to use the new `Context` properties
recently introduced and similarly updated in the previous patch to the
ctx-semantics suite.
In order to match a very significant and coming-soon patch set to the
IPC `Context` and `Channel` cancellation semantics with significant but
subtle changes to the primitives and runtime logic:
- a new set of `Context` state pub meth APIs for checking exact
inter-actor-linked-task outcomes such as `.outcome`, `.maybe_error`,
and `.cancel_acked`.
- trying to move away from `Context.cancelled_caught` usage since the
semantics from `trio` don't really map well (in terms of cancel
requests and how they result in cancel-scope graceful closure) and
`.cancel_acked: bool` is a better approach for IPC req-resp msging.
- change test usage to access `._scope.cancelled_caught` directly.
- more pedantic ctxc-raising expects around the "type of self
cancellation" and final outcome in ctxc cases:
- `ContextCancelled` is raised by ctx (`Context.result()`) consumer
methods when `Portal.cancel_actor()` is called (since it's an
out-of-band request) despite `Channel._cancel_called` being set.
- also raised by `.open_context().__aexit__()` on close.
- `.outcome` is always `.maybe_error` is always one of
`._local/remote_error`.
Since a bug in the new `MsgStream.aclose()` impl's drain block logic was
triggering an actual inf loop (by not ever canceller the streamer child
actor), make sure we put a loop limit on the `inf_streamer`()` XD
Also add a bit more deats to the test `print()`s in each actor and toss
in `debug_mode` fixture support.
Turns out that py3.11 might be so fast that iterating a EoC-ed
`MsgStream` 1k times is faster then a `Context.cancel()` msg
transmission from a parent actor to it's child (which i guess makes
sense). So tweak the test to delay 5ms between stream async-for iteration
attempts when the stream is detected to be `.closed: bool` (coming in
patch) or `ctx.cancel_called == true`.
Such that with `--tpdb` passed (sub)actors will engage the `pdbp` REPL
automatically and so that we can use the new `stackscope` support when
complex cases hang Bo
Also,
- simplified some type-annots (ns paths),
- doc-ed an inter-peer test func with some ascii msg flows,
- added a bottom #TODO for replicating the scenario i hit in `modden`
where a separate client actor-tree was hanging on cancelling a `bigd`
sub-workspace..
Allows tests (including any `@tractor_test`s) to subscribe to a CLI flag
`--tpdb` (for "tractor python debugger") which the session can provide
to tests which can then proxy the value to `open_root_actor()` (via
`open_nursery()`) when booting the runtime - thus enabling our debug
mode globally to any subscribers B)
This is real handy if you have some failures but can't determine the
root issue without jumping into a `pdbp` REPL inside a (sub-)actor's
spawned-task.
Drop all the nested `@acm` blocks and defunct comments from initial
validations. Add some todos for cases that are still unclear such as
whether the caller / streamer should have `.cancelled_caught == True` in
it's teardown.
We can now make asserts on `.cancelled_caught` and `_remote_error` vs.
`_local_error`. Expect a runtime error when `Context.open_stream()` is
called AFTER `.cancel()` and the remote `ContextCancelled` hasn't
arrived (yet). Adjust to `'itself'` string in self-cancel case.
Tests that appropriate `Context` exit state, the relay of
a `ContextCancelled` error and its `.canceller: tuple[str, str]` value
are set when an inter-peer cancellation happens via an "out of band"
request method (in this case using `Portal.cancel_actor()` and that
cancellation is propagated "horizontally" to other peers. Verify that
any such cancellation scenario which also experiences an "error during
`ContextCancelled` handling" DOES NOT result in that further error being
suppressed and that the user's exception bubbles out of the
`Context.open_context()` block(s) appropriately!
Likely more tests to come as well as some factoring of the teardown
state checks where possible.
Pertains to serious testing the major work landing in #357
Move over relevant test from the "context semantics" test module which
was already verifying peer-caused-`ContextCancelled.canceller: tuple`
error info and propagation during an inter-peer cancellation scenario.
Also begin a more general set of inter-peer cancellation tests starting
with the simplest case where when a peer is cancelled the parent should
NOT get an "muted" `trio.Cancelled` and instead
a `tractor.ContextCancelled` with a `.canceller: tuple` which points to
the sibling actor which requested the peer cancel.
Demonstrates fixed size frame-oriented reads by the child where the
parent only transmits a "read" stream msg on "frame fill events" such
that the child incrementally reads the shm list data (much like in
a real-time-buffered streaming system).
This actually caught further runtime bugs so it's gud i tried..
Add overrun-ignore enabled / disabled cases and error catching for all
of them. More or less this should cover every possible outcome when
it comes to setting `allow_overruns: bool` i hope XD
Turns out stuff was totally broken in these cases because we're either
closing the underlying mem chan too early or not handling the
"allow_overruns" mode's cancellation correctly..
These will verify new changes to the runtime/messaging core which allows
us to adopt an "ignore cancel if requested by us" style handling of
`ContextCancelled` more like how `trio` does with
`trio.Nursery.cancel_scope.cancel()`. We now expect
a `ContextCancelled.canceller: tuple` which is set to the actor uid of
the actor which requested the cancellation which eventually resulted in
the remote error-msg.
Also adds some experimental tweaks to the "backpressure" test which it
turns out is very problematic in coordination with context cancellation
since blocking on the feed mem chan to some task will block the ipc msg
loop and thus handling of cancellation.. More to come to both the test
and core to address this hopefully since right now this test is failing.
With the new fancy `_pytest.pathlib.import_path()` we can do real
parametrization of the example-script-module code and thus configure
whether the child, parent, or both silently break the IPC connection.
Parametrize the test for all the above mentioned cases as well as the
case where the IPC never breaks but we still simulate the user hammering
ctl-c / SIGINT to terminate the actor tree. Adjust expected errors based
on each case and heavily document each of these.
Turns out this test was being silently ignored due to incorrect usage of
sync opening of our `.open_nursery()` block (with a `with` not `async
with`) and thus was an noop XD
Instead this fixes the test to call a `tractor` discovery built-in
without starting the runtime (which is now done implicitly when a user
opens a nursery) which should result in the prior expected outcome,
a `RuntimeError`.
After many tries I just don't think it's worth it to make the tests work
since the repl UX in `pdbpp` is so unreliable in the latest release and
honestly we're trying to go 3.10+ ASAP.
Further,
- entirely drop the pattern matching inside the `do_ctlc()` for now.
- add a `subactor_error` parametrization that catches a case that
previously caused a hang (when you use 'next' immediately after the
first crash/debug lock (the fix was pushed just before this commit).
This fixes an previously undetected bug where if an
`.open_channel_from()` spawned task errored the error would not be
propagated to the `trio` side and instead would fail silently with
a console log error. What was most odd is that it only seems easy to
trigger when you put a slight task sleep before the error is raised
(:eyeroll:). This patch adds a few things to address this and just in
general improve iter-task lifetime syncing:
- add `LinkedTaskChannel._trio_exited: bool` a flag set from the `trio`
side when the channel block exits.
- add a `wait_on_aio_task: bool` flag to `translate_aio_errors` which
toggles whether to wait the `asyncio` task termination event on exit.
- cancel the `asyncio` task if the trio side has ended, when
`._trio_exited == True`.
- always close the `trio` mem channel when the task exits such that
the `asyncio` side can error on any next `.send()` call.
