Only `EndOfChannel` and direct cancellation woke tasks waiting
behind the subscriber which owned the underlying receive. Any other
failure cleared `BroadcastState.recv_ready` while peers remained
blocked on its unreachable event.
Publish ordinary receive exceptions as terminal broadcast state.
The owner keeps the original failure while peers drain retained
values and then raise `BroadcastReceiveError` from that cause. Also
wake peers on process-control exits without retaining them as state.
Document the public owner/peer contract and cover current, late and
control-flow subscribers with deterministic bounded regressions.

(this patch was generated in some part by `opencode` using `gpt-5.6-sol` (`openai`))
A `trio.Nursery.start()`-style wrapper around
`trio.run_process()` that surfaces rc!=0 errors
deterministically, ALWAYS isolates the parent
controlling-tty, and optionally live-relays the child's
std-streams to `log.<level>` per-line. Suits both
short-lived test-runners + long-lived daemons.
`supervise_run_process()`,
- Deterministic rc!=0: pass `check=False` to `trio`
and do our OWN post-drain rc-check from the
supervisor coro body AFTER `own_tn.__aexit__` — NOT
inside the internal nursery, since that would
race-cancel the still-draining relay reader and lose
stderr lines. (Re)build + raise a BARE
`subprocess.CalledProcessError`: `.stderr=` for
programmatic callers + an `add_note()`'d
`|_.stderr:` block for human teardown logs. No
nursery-eg-wrapped CPE to `collapse_eg` around.
- Parent controlling-tty isolation: `stdin=DEVNULL`
always, `stdout=DEVNULL` unless relayed/overridden
(via `stdout=` kwarg w/ `_UNSET` sentinel so explicit
`None` = inherit still works). Prevents a spawned
program from clobbering the launching tty's scrollback
w/ control-seqs.
- Live per-line relay: `relay_stdout=True`/
`relay_stderr=True` → relayed to `log.<relay_level>`
(default `'io'`, our custom level 21). Picked to sort
just above stdlib `INFO`=20 so it shows at usual
`info`/`devx` levels yet stays separately filterable;
`runtime`=15 was REJECTED as a default since it'd be
silently filtered at usual verbosity — footgun for
daemon supervisors whose whole point is visibility.
STREAMED, not buffered-until-exit.
- Non-blocking `tn.start()` semantics: live
`trio.Process` handed up via
`task_status.started()` immediately (else
`tn.start()` would block till child exit, losing
the long-lived-daemon use case). Supervise/relay bg
tasks run to completion in this coro.
- `**run_process_kwargs` forwarded verbatim (env, shell,
cwd, start_new_session, executable, ...); MANAGED keys
(`stdin`/`stdout`/`stderr`/`check`) win on conflict.
- Crash-handling layer intentionally NOT baked in —
compose `maybe_open_crash_handler()` ON TOP at the
call-site.
`_relay_stream_lines()` helper,
- Concurrent pipe-drain reader. MANDATORY whenever piping
w/o `capture_*` since nothing else drains the OS pipe —
child blocks on `write()` once kernel buf (~64KiB) fills
→ deadlock.
- Modes (combine freely): `emit`-only live relay,
`accum`-only silent drain+capture (for the CPE note),
or both. Per-line splitting handles cross-chunk
residuals + flushes any trailing un-newline-term'd line
at EOF.
`_add_stderr_note()` helper,
- Attaches an indented `|_.stderr:` note to a CPE via
`add_note()` for legible rc!=0 reporting at teardown.
Tests (`tests/trionics/test_subproc.py`),
- Hermetic `trio`-only (no actor-runtime).
- `test_stdout_relayed_per_line`: per-line stdout relay.
- `test_parent_tty_isolated`: child fd1 is OUR pipe (no
`/dev/pts/*`), fd0 pinned to `/dev/null`.
- `test_no_deadlock_on_big_unnewlined_output`: 200KiB
no-newline output completes under `fail_after(2)` —
exercises the concurrent drain (without it, the child
blocks at ~64KiB).
- `test_stderr_relay_and_cpe_rebuild`: rc!=0 w/
`relay_stderr=True` → bare `CalledProcessError` w/ the
`.stderr` note + per-line live relay.
- `test_nonrelay_cpe_note`: rc!=0 w/o relay → same
deterministic post-drain CPE w/ `.stderr` note (silent
drain+capture path).
Re-export `supervise_run_process` from `tractor.trionics`.

(cherry picked from commit f595acc76c)
(cherry picked from commit 6df9ee11bc)
Wrapper around `trio.Nursery.start()` that DOESN'T mask
out-of-band cancellation as a lossy startup failure.
Picks the right re-raise: ambient `Cancelled` when
present, the genuine startup-protocol `RuntimeError`
otherwise.
The problem,
- `trio.Nursery.start()` raises a generic
`RuntimeError("child exited without calling
task_status.started()")` whenever the started task
exits BEFORE calling `task_status.started()` —
INCLUDING the common case where the child was
cancelled out-of-band by an *ancestor* cancel-scope
erroring/cancelling.
- In that case the original `trio.Cancelled` is
swallowed and the caller is left w/ an opaque,
root-cause-detached `RuntimeError`.
The fix,
- Catch the "...started" RTE.
- `await trio.lowlevel.checkpoint_if_cancelled()` —
re-raises the in-flight `Cancelled` IFF we're under
effective cancellation (ancestor-inclusive), carrying
trio's auto-generated reason which points at the true
root exc.
- If we're NOT cancelled the `checkpoint_if_cancelled()`
is a cheap no-op and we fall through to re-raise the
genuine startup-protocol RTE.
Re-export from `tractor.trionics` so callers don't have
to reach into `_taskc`.

Since it turns out the semantics are basically inverse of normal
`except` (particularly for re-raising) which is hard to get right, and
bc it's a lot easier to just delegate to what `trio` already has behind
the `strict_exception_groups=False` setting, Bp
I added a rant here which will get removed shortly likely, but i think
going forward recommending against use of `except*` is prudent for
anything low level enough in the runtime (like trying to filter begs).
Dirty deats,
- copy `trio._core._run.collapse_exception_group()` to here with only
a slight mod to remove the notes check and tb concatting for the
collapse case.
- rename `maybe_collapse_eg()` - > `get_collapsed_eg()` and delegate it
directly to the former `trio` fn; return `None` when it returns the
same beg without collapse.
- simplify our own `collapse_eg()` to either raise the collapsed `exc`
or original `beg`.
Since it's for beg filtering, the current impl should be renamed anyway;
it's not just for filtering cancelled excs.
Deats,
- added a real doc string, links to official eg docs and fixed the
return typing.
- adjust all internal imports to match.
Inside a new `.trionics._beg` and exposed from the subpkg ns in
anticipation of the `strict_exception_groups=False` being removed by
`trio` in py 3.15.
Notes,
- mk an embedded single-exc "extractor" using a `BaseExceptionGroup.exceptions` length
check, when 1 return the lone child.
- use the above in a new `@acm`, async bc it's most likely to be composed in an
`async with` tuple-style sequence block, called `collapse_eg()` which
acts a one line "absorber" for when the above mentioned flag is no
logner supported by `trio.open_nursery()`.
All untested atm fwiw.. but soon to be used in our test suite(s) likely!
Instead of sticking all `trionics.maybe_open_context()` tasks inside the
actor's (root) service nursery, open a unique one per manager function
instance (id).
Further, accept a callable for the `key` such that a user can have
more flexible control on the caching logic and move the
`maybe_open_nursery()` helper out of the portal mod and into this
trionics "managers" module.
This commit obviously denotes a re-license of all applicable parts of
the code base. Acknowledgement of this change was completed in #274 by
the majority of the current set of contributors. From here henceforth
all changes will be AGPL licensed and distributed. This is purely an
effort to maintain the same copy-left policy whilst closing the
(perceived) SaaS loophole the GPL allows for. It is merely for this
loophole: to avoid code hiding by any potential "network providers" who
are attempting to use the project to make a profit without either
compensating the authors or re-distributing their changes.
I thought quite a bit about this change and can't see a reason not to
close the SaaS loophole in our current license. We still are (hard)
copy-left and I plan to keep the code base this way for a couple
reasons:
- The code base produces income/profit through parent projects and is
demonstrably of high value.
- I believe firms should not get free lunch for the sake of
"contributions from their employees" or "usage as a service" which
I have found to be a dubious argument at best.
- If a firm who intends to profit from the code base wants to use it
they can propose a secondary commercial license to purchase with the
proceeds going to the project's authors under some form of well
defined contract.
- Many successful projects like Qt use this model; I see no reason it
can't work in this case until such a time as the authors feel it
should be loosened.
There has been detailed discussion in #103 on licensing alternatives.
The main point of this AGPL change is to protect the code base for the
time being from exploitation while it grows and as we move into the next
phase of development which will include extension into the multi-host
distributed software space.
The api we've made here is actually closer to `asyncio.gather()` but
with opening async context managers instead of funcs. Use another event
to allow for graceful teardown of children on non-cancellation exits
and add a doc string.
Since it seems we're building out more and more higher level primitives
in order to support certain parallel style actor trees and messaging
patterns (eg. task broadcast channels), we might as well start a new
sub-package for purely `trio` constructions. We hereby dub this
the realm of `trionics` (like electronics but for trios instead of
electrons).
To kick things off, add an `async_enter_all()` concurrent
exit-stack-like context manager API which will concurrently spawn
a sequence of provided async context managers and deliver their ordered
results but with proper support for `trio` cancellation semantics.
The stdlib's `AsyncExitStack` is not compatible with nurseries not
`trio` tasks (which are cancelled) since as task will be suspended on
the stack after push and does not ever hit a checkpoint until the stack
is closed.
