More or less just simplifies to not seeing the stream closure errors and
instead expecting KBIs from the simulated user who 'ctl-cs after hang'.
Toss in a little `stuff_hangin_ctlc()` to the script to wrap all that
and always check stream closure before sending the final KBI.
I swear long ago it used to operate this way but, I guess this finalizes
the design decision. It makes a lot more sense to *not* propagate any
`trio.EndOfChannel` raised from a `Context.open_stream() as stream:`
block when that EoC is due to graceful-explicit stream termination.
We use the EoC much like a `StopAsyncIteration` where the error
indicates termination of the stream due to either:
- reception of a stop IPC msg indicating the far end ended the stream
(gracecfully),
- closure of the underlying `Context._recv_chan` either by the runtime
or due to user code having called `MsgStream.aclose()`.
User code shouldn't expect to handle EoC outside the block since the
`@acm` having closed should indicate the exactly same lifetime state
(of said stream) ;)
Deats:
- add special EoC handler in `.open_stream()` which silently "absorbs"
the error only when the stream is already marked as closed (meaning
the EoC indeed corresponds to IPC closure) with an assert for now
ensuring the error is the same as set to `MsgStream._eoc`.
- in `MsgStream.receive()` break up the handlers for EoC and
`trio.ClosedResourceError` since the error instances are saved to
different variables and we **don't** want to rewrite the exception in
the eoc case (normally to mask `trio` internals in tbs) bc we need the
instance to be the exact one for doing checks inside
`.open_stream().__aexit__()` to absorb it.
Other surrounding "improvements":
- start using the new `Context.maybe_raise()` helper where it can easily
replace existing equivalent block-sections.
- use new `RemoteActorError.src_uid` as required.
The misname of `._boxed_type` as `._src_type` was only manifesting as
a reallly strange boxing error with a packed exception-group, not sure
how or why only that but it's fixed now XD
Start refining/cleaning out stuff for sure we don't need (based on
multiple local test runs):
- discard `.src_actor_uid` fully since test set has been moved over to
`.src_uid`; this means also removing the `.msgdata` insertion from
`pack_error()`; a patch to all internals is coming next obvi!
- don't pass `boxed_type` to `RemoteActorError.__init__()` from
`unpack_error()` since it's now set directly via the
`.msgdata["boxed_type_str"]`/`error_msg: dict` input , but in the case
where **it is passed as an arg** (only for ctxc in `._rpc._invoke()`
rn) make sure we only do the `.__init__()` insert when `boxed_type is
not None`.
Since adding more complex inter-peer (actor) testing scenarios, we
definitely have an immediate need for `trio`'s style of "inceptions" but
for nesting `RemoteActorError`s as they're relayed through multiple
actor-IPC hops. So for example, a remote error relayed "through" some
proxy actor to another ends up packing a `RemoteActorError` into another
one such that there are 2 layers of RAEs with the first
containing/boxing an original src actor error (type).
In support of this extension to `RemoteActorError` we add:
- `get_err_type()` error type resolver helper (factored fromthe
body of `unpack_error()`) to be used whenever rendering
`.src_type`/`.boxed_type`.
- `.src_type_str: str` which is pulled from `.msgdata` and holds the
above (eventually when unpacked) type as `str`.
- `._src_type: BaseException|None` for the original
"source" actor's error as unpacked in any remote (actor's) env and
exposed as a readonly property `.src_type`.
- `.boxed_type_str: str` the same as above but for the "last" boxed
error's type; when the RAE is unpacked at its first hop this will
be **the same as** `.src_type_str`.
- `._boxed_type: BaseException` which now similarly should be "rendered"
from the below type-`str` field instead of passed in as a error-type
via `boxed_type` (though we still do for the ctxc case atm, see
notes).
|_ new sanity checks in `.__init__()` mostly as a reminder to handle
that ^ ctxc case ^ more elegantly at some point..
|_ obvi we discard the previous `suberror_type` input arg.
- fully remove the `.type`/`.type_str` properties instead expecting
usage of `.boxed_/.src_` equivalents.
- start deprecation of `.src_actor_uid` and make it delegate to new
`.src_uid`
- add `.relay_uid` propery for the last relay/hop's actor uid.
- add `.relay_path: list[str]` which holds the per-hop updated sequence
of relay actor uid's which consecutively did boxing of an RAE.
- only include `.src_uid` and `.relay_path` in reprol() output.
- factor field-to-str rendering into a new `_mk_fields_str()`
and use it in `.__repr__()`/`.reprol()`.
- add an `.unwrap()` to (attempt to) render the src error.
- rework `pack_error()` to handle inceptions including,
- packing the correct field-values for the new `boxed_type_str`, `relay_uid`,
`src_uid`, `src_type_str`.
- always updating the `relay_path` sequence with the uid of the
current actor.
- adjust `unpack_error()` to match all these changes,
- pulling `boxed_type_str` and passing any resolved `boxed_type` to
`RemoteActorError.__init__()`.
- use the new `Context.maybe_raise()` convenience method.
Adjust `._rpc` packing to `ContextCancelled(boxed_type=trio.Cancelled)`
and tweak some more log msg formats.
- `trio_typing` is nearly obsolete since `trio >= 0.23`
- `exceptiongroup` is built-in to python 3.11
- `async_generator` primitives have lived in `contextlib` for quite
a while!
Since `._runtime` was getting pretty long (> 2k LOC) and much of the RPC
low-level machinery is fairly isolated to a handful of task-funcs, it
makes sense to re-org the RPC task scheduling and driving msg loop to
its own code space.
The move includes:
- `process_messages()` which is the main IPC business logic.
- `try_ship_error_to_remote()` helper, to box local errors for the wire.
- `_invoke()`, the core task scheduler entrypoing used in the msg loop.
- `_invoke_non_context()`, holds impls for non-`@context` task starts.
- `_errors_relayed_via_ipc()` which does all error catch-n-boxing for
wire-msg shipment using `try_ship_error_to_remote()` internally.
Also inside `._runtime` improve some `Actor` methods docs.
Finally, since normally you need the content from `._context.Context`
and surroundings in order to effectively grok `Portal.open_context()`
anyways, might as well move the impl to the ctx module as
`open_context_from_portal()` and just bind it on the `Portal` class def.
Associated/required tweaks:
- avoid circ import on `.devx` by only import
`.maybe_wait_for_debugger()` when debug mode is set.
- drop `async_generator` usage, not sure why this hadn't already been
changed to `contextlib`?
- use `@acm` alias throughout `._portal`
Previously i was trying to approach this using lots of
`__tracebackhide__`'s in various internal funcs but since it's not
exactly straight forward to do this inside core deps like `trio` and the
stdlib, it makes a bit more sense to optionally catch and re-raise
certain classes of errors from their originals using `raise from` syntax
as per:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/exceptions.html#exception-context
Deats:
- litter `._context` methods with `__tracebackhide__`/`hide_tb` which
were previously being shown but that don't need to be to application
code now that cancel semantics testing is finished up.
- i originally did the same but later commented it all out in `._ipc`
since error catch and re-raise instead in higher level layers
(above the transport) seems to be a much saner approach.
- add catch-n-reraise-from in `MsgStream.send()`/.`receive()` to avoid
seeing the depths of `trio` and/or our `._ipc` layers on comms errors.
Further this patch adds some refactoring to use the
same remote-error shipper routine from both the actor-core in the RPC
invoker:
- rename it as `try_ship_error_to_remote()` and call it from
`._invoke()` as well as it's prior usage.
- make it optionally accept `cid: str` a `remote_descr: str` and of
course a `hide_tb: bool`.
Other misc tweaks:
- add some todo notes around `Actor.load_modules()` debug hooking.
- tweak the zombie reaper log msg and timeout value ;)
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?
With the seeming cause that some cases occasionally raise
`ExceptionGroup` instead of a (collapsed out) single error which, in
those cases at least try to check that `.exceptions` has the original
error.
Found exactly why trying this won't work when playing around with
opening workspaces in `modden` using a `Portal.open_context()` back to
the 'bigd' root actor: the RPC machinery only registers one entry in
`Actor._contexts` which will get overwritten by each task's side and
then experience race-based IPC msging errors (eg. rxing `{'started': _}`
on the callee side..). Instead make opening a ctx back to the self-actor
a runtime error describing it as an invalid op.
To match:
- add a new test `test_ctx_with_self_actor()` to the context semantics
suite.
- tried out adding a new `side: str` to the `Actor.get_context()` (and
callers) but ran into not being able to determine the value from in
`._push_result()` where it's needed to figure out which side to push
to.. So, just leaving the commented arg (passing) in the runtime core
for now in case we can come back to trying to make it work, tho i'm
thinking it's not the right hack anyway XD
Call it `allow_msg_keys: list[str] = ['yield']` and set it to accept
`['yield', 'return']` from the drain loop in `.aclose()`. Only pass the
last key error to `_raise_from_no_key_in_msg()` in the fall-through
case.
Somehow this seems to prevent all the intermittent test failures i was
seeing in local runs including when running the entire suite all in
sequence; i ain't complaining B)
Much like similar recent changes throughout the core, build out `msg:
str` depending on error cases and emit with `.cancel()` level as
appropes. Also mute (via level) some duplication in the cancel case
inside `_run_asyncio_task()` for console noise reduction.
Since apparently `str(KeyboardInterrupt()) == ''`? So instead add little
`<str> or repr(merr)` expressions throughout to avoid blank strings
rendering if various `repr()`/`.__str__()` outputs..
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.
Not sure if it's really that useful other then for reporting errors from
`current_actor()` but at least it alerts `tractor` devs and/or users
when the runtime has already terminated vs. hasn't been started
yet/correctly.
Set the `._last_actor_terminated: tuple` in the root's final block which
allows testing for an already terminated tree which is the case where
`._state._current_actor == None` and the last is set.
Including mostly tweaking asserts on relayed `ContextCancelled`s and
the new pub ctx properties: `.outcome`, `.maybe_error`, etc. as it
pertains to graceful (absorbed) remote cancellation vs. loud ctxc cases
expected to be raised by any `Portal.cancel_actor()` style teardown.
Start checking a variety internals like `._remote/local_error`,
`._is_self_cancelled()`, `._is_final_result_set()`, `._cancel_msg`
where applicable.
Also factor out the new `expect_ctxc()` checker to our `conftest.py` for
use in other suites.
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
Changes the condition logic to be more strict and moves it to a private
`._is_self_cancelled() -> bool` predicate which can be used elsewhere
(instead of having almost similar duplicate checks all over the
place..) and allows taking in a specific `remote_error` just for
verification purposes (like for tests).
Main strictness distinctions are now:
- obvi that `.cancel_called` is set (this filters any
`Portal.cancel_actor()` or other out-of-band RPC),
- the received `ContextCancelled` **must** have its `.canceller` set to
this side's `Actor.uid` (indicating we are the requester).
- `.src_actor_uid` **must** be the same as the `.chan.uid` (so the error
must have originated from the opposite side's task.
- `ContextCancelled.canceller` should be already set to the `.chan.uid`
indicating we received the msg via the runtime calling
`._deliver_msg()` -> `_maybe_cancel_and_set_remote_error()` which
ensures the error is specifically destined for this ctx-task exactly
the same as how `Actor._cancel_task()` sets it from an input
`requesting_uid` arg.
In support of the above adjust some impl deats:
- add `Context._actor: Actor` which is set once in `mk_context()` to
avoid issues (particularly in testing) where `current_actor()` raises
after the root actor / runtime is already exited. Use `._actor.uid` in
both `.cancel_acked` (obvi) and '_maybe_cancel_and_set_remote_error()`
when deciding whether to call `._scope.cancel()`.
- always cast `.canceller` to `tuple` if not null.
- delegate `.cancel_acked` directly to new private predicate (obvi).
- always set `._canceller` from any `RemoteActorError.src_actor_uid` or
failing over to the `.chan.uid` when a non-remote error (tho that
shouldn't ever happen right?).
- more extensive doc-string for `.cancel()` detailing the new strictness
rules about whether an eventual `.cancel_acked` might be set.
Also tossed in even more logging format tweaks by adding a
`type_only: bool` to `.repr_outcome()` as desired for simpler output in
the `state: <outcome-repr-here>` and `.repr_rpc()` sections of the
`.__str__()`.
Like how we set `Context._cancel_msg` in `._deliver_msg()` (in
which case normally it's an `{'error': ..}` msg), do the same when any
RPC task is remotely cancelled via `Actor._cancel_task` where that task
doesn't yet have a cancel msg set yet.
This makes is much easier to distinguish between ctx cancellations due
to some remote error vs. Explicit remote requests via any of
`Actor.cancel()`, `Portal.cancel_actor()` or `Context.cancel()`.
We don't expect `._scope.cancelled_caught` to be set really ever on
inter-peer cancellation since no ctx is ever cancelling itself, a peer
cancels some other and then bubbles back to all other peers.
Also add `ids: lambda` for `error_during_ctxerr_handling` param to
`test_peer_canceller()`
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.
Buncha subtle details changed mostly to do with when `Context.cancel()`
gets called on "real" remote errors vs. (peer requested) cancellation
and then local side handling of `ContextCancelled`.
Specific changes to make tests pass:
- due to raciness with `sleeper_ctx.result()` raising the ctxc locally
vs. the child-peers receiving similar ctxcs themselves (and then
erroring and propagating back to the root parent), we might not see
`._remote_error` set during the sub-ctx loops (except for the sleeper
itself obvi).
- do not expect `.cancel_called`/`.cancel_caught` to be set on any
sub-ctx since currently `Context.cancel()` is only called non-shielded
and thus is not in invoked when `._scope.cancel()` is called as part
of each root-side ctx ref/block handling the inter-peer ctxc.
- do not expect `Context._scope.cancelled_caught` to be set in most cases
(even the sleeper)
TODO Outstanding adjustments not fixed yet:
-[ ] `_scope.cancelled_caught` checks outside the `.open_context()`
blocks.
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.
Since eventually we want to implement all other RPC "func types" as
contexts underneath this starts the rework to move all the other cases
into a separate func not only to simplify the main `._invoke()` body but
also as a reminder of the intention to do it XD
Details of re-factor:
- add a new `._invoke_non_context()` which just moves all the old blocks
for non-context handling to a single def.
- factor what was basically just the `finally:` block handler (doing all
the task bookkeeping) into a new `@acm`: `_errors_relayed_via_ipc()`
with that content packed into the post-`yield` (also with a `hide_tb:
bool` flag added of course).
* include a `debug_kbis: bool` for when needed.
- since the `@context` block is the only type left in the main
`_invoke()` body, de-dent it so it's more grok-able B)
Obviously this patch also includes a few improvements regarding
context-cancellation-semantics (for the `context` RPC case) on the
callee side in order to match previous changes to the `Context` api:
- always setting any ctxc as the `Context._local_error`.
- using the new convenience `.maybe_raise()` topically (for now).
- avoiding any previous reliance on `Context.cancelled_caught` for
anything public of meaning.
Further included is more logging content updates:
- being pedantic in `.cancel()` msgs about whether termination is caused
by error or ctxc.
- optional `._invoke()` traceback hiding via a `hide_tb: bool`.
- simpler log headers throughout instead leveraging new `.__repr__()` on
primitives.
- buncha `<= <actor-uid>` sent some message emissions.
- simplified handshake statuses reporting.
Other subsys api changes we need to match:
- change to `Channel.transport`.
- avoiding any `local_nursery: ActorNursery` waiting when the
`._implicit_runtime_started` is set.
And yes, lotsa more comments for #TODOs dawg.. since there's always
somethin!
In the case where the callee side delivers us a ctxc with `.canceller`
set we can presume that remote cancellation already has taken place and
thus we don't need to do the normal call-`Context.cancel()`-on-error
step. Further, in the case where we do call it also handle any
`trio.CloseResourceError` gracefully with a `.warning()`.
Also, originally I had added a post-`yield`-maybe-raise to attempt
handling any remote ctxc the same as for the local case (i.e. raised
from `yield` line) wherein if we get a remote ctxc the same handler
branch-path would trigger, thus avoiding different behaviour in that
case. I ended up masking it out (but can't member why.. ) as it seems
the normal `.result()` call and its internal handling gets the same
behaviour? I've left in the heavily commented code in case it ends up
being the better way to go; likely making the move to having a single
code in both cases is better even if it is just a matter of deciding
whether to swallow the ctxc or not in the `.cancel_acked` case.
Further teensie improvements:
- obvi improve/simplify log msg contents as in prior patches.
- use the new `maybe_wait_for_debugger(header_msg: str)` if/when waiting
to exit in debug mode.
- another `hide_tb: bool` frame hider flag.
- rando type-annot updates of course :)
Spanning from the pub API, to instance `repr()` customization (for
logging/REPL content), to the impl details around the notion of a "final
outcome" and surrounding IPC msg draining mechanics during teardown.
A few API and field updates:
- new `.cancel_acked: bool` to replace what we were mostly using
`.cancelled_caught: bool` for but, for purposes of better mapping the
semantics of remote cancellation of parallel executing tasks; it's set
only when `.cancel_called` is set and a ctxc arrives with
a `.canceller` field set to the current actor uid indicating we
requested and received acknowledgement from the other side's task
that is cancelled gracefully.
- strongly document and delegate (and prolly eventually remove as a pub
attr) the `.cancelled_caught` property entirely to the underlying
`._scope: trio.CancelScope`; the `trio` semantics don't really map
well to the "parallel with IPC msging" case in the sense that for
us it breaks the concept of the ctx/scope closure having "caught"
something instead of having "received" a msg that the other side has
"acknowledged" (i.e. which for us is the completion of cancellation).
- new `.__repr__()`/`.__str__()` format that tries to tersely yet
comprehensively as possible display everything you need to know about
the 3 main layers of an SC-linked-IPC-context:
* ipc: the transport + runtime layers net-addressing and prot info.
* rpc: the specific linked caller-callee task signature details
including task and msg-stream instances.
* state: current execution and final outcome state of the task pair.
* a teensie extra `.repr_rpc` for a condensed rpc signature.
- new `.dst_maddr` to get a `libp2p` style "multi-address" (though right
now it's just showing the transport layers so maybe we should move to
to our `Channel`?)
- new public instance-var fields supporting more granular remote
cancellation/result/error state:
* `.maybe_error: Exception|None` for any final (remote) error/ctxc
which computes logic on the values of `._remote_error`/`._local_error`
to determine the "final error" (if any) on termination.
* `.outcome` to the final error or result (or `None` if un-terminated)
* `.repr_outcome()` for a console/logging friendly version of the
final result or error as needed for the `.__str__()`.
- new private interface bits to support all of ^:
* a new "no result yet" sentinel value, `Unresolved`, using a module
level class singleton that `._result` is set too (instead of
`id(self)`) to both determine if and present when no final result
from the callee has-yet-been/was delivered (ever).
=> really we should get rid of `.result()` and change it to
`.wait_for_result()` (or something)u
* `_final_result_is_set()` predicate to avoid waiting for an already
delivered result.
* `._maybe_raise()` proto-impl that we should use to replace all the
`if re:` blocks it can XD
* new `._stream: MsgStream|None` for when a stream is opened to aid
with the state repr mentioned above.
Tweaks to the termination drain loop `_drain_to_final_msg()`:
- obviously (obvi) use all the changes above when determining whether or
not a "final outcome" has arrived and thus breaking from the loop ;)
* like the `.outcome` `.maybe_error` and `._final_ctx_is_set()` in
the `while` pred expression.
- drop the `_recv_chan.receive_nowait()` + guard logic since it seems
with all the surrounding (and coming soon) changes to
`Portal.open_context()` using all the new API stuff (mentioned in
first bullet set above) we never hit the case of inf-block?
Oh right and obviously a ton of (hopefully improved) logging msg content
changes, commented code removal and detailed comment-docs strewn about!
After some deep logging improvements to many parts of `._runtime`,
I realized a silly detail where we are always waiting on any opened
`local_nursery: ActorNursery` to signal exit from
`Actor._stream_handler()` even in the case of being an implicitly opened
root actor (`open_root_actor()` wasn't called by user/app code) via
`._supervise.open_nursery()`..
So, to address this add a `ActorNursery._implicit_runtime_started: bool`
that can be set and then checked to avoid doing the unnecessary
`.exited.wait()` (and any subsequent warn logging on an exit timeout) in
that special but most common case XD
Matching with other subsys log format refinements, improve readability
and simplicity of the actor-nursery supervisory log msgs, including:
- simplify and/or remove any content that more or less duplicates msg
content found in emissions from lower-level primitives and sub-systems
(like `._runtime`, `_context`, `_portal` etc.).
- add a specific `._open_and_supervise_one_cancels_all_nursery()`
handler block for `ContextCancelled` to log with `.cancel()` level
noting that the case is a "remote cancellation".
- put the nursery-exit and actor-tree shutdown status into a single msg
in the `implicit_runtime` case.
- rename `.soft_wait()` -> `.soft_kill()`
- rename `.do_hard_kill()` -> `.hard_kill()`
- adjust any `trio.Process.__repr__()` log msg contents to have the
little tree branch prefix: `'|_'`
Our remote error box types `RemoteActorError`, `ContextCancelled` and
`StreamOverrun` needed a console display makeover particularly for
logging content and `repr()` in higher level primitives like `Context`.
This adds a more "dramatic" str-representation to showcase the
underlying boxed traceback content more sensationally (via ascii-art
emphasis) as well as support a more terse `.reprol()` (representation
for one-line) format that can be used for types that track remote
errors/cancels like with `Context._remote_error`.
Impl deats:
- change `RemoteActorError.__repr__()` formatting to show (sub-type
specific) `.msgdata` fields in a multi-line format (similar to our new
`.msg.types.Struct` style) followed by some ascii accented delimiter
lines to emphasize any `.msgdata["tb_str"]` packed by the remote
- for rme and subtypes allow picking the specifically relevant fields
via a type defined `.reprol_fields: list[str]` and pick for each
subtype:
|_ `RemoteActorError.src_actor_uid`
|_ `ContextCancelled.canceller`
|_ `StreamOverrun.sender`
- add `.reprol()` to show a `repr()`-on-one-line formatted string that
can be used by other multi-line-field-`repr()` styled composite types
as needed in (high level) logging info.
- toss in some mod level `_body_fields: list[str]` for summary of such
fields (if needed).
- add some new rae (remote-actor-error) props:
- `.type` around a newly named `.boxed_type`
- `.type_str: str`
- `.tb_str: str`
Hit a reallly weird bug in the `._runtime` IPC msg handling loop where
it seems that by `str.format()`-ing a `Channel` before initializing it
would put the `._MsgTransport._agen()` in an already started state
causing an irrecoverable core startup failure..
I presume it's something to do with delegating to the
`MsgpackTCPStream.__repr__()` and, something something.. the
`.set_msg_transport(stream)` getting called to too early such that
`.msgstream.__init__()` is called thus init-ing the `._agen()` before
necessary? I'm sure there's a design lesson to be learned in here
somewhere XD
This was discovered while trying to add more "fancy" logging throughout
said core for the purposes of cobbling together an init attempt at
libp2p style multi-address representations for our IPC primitives. Thus
I also tinker here with adding some new fields to `MsgpackTCPStream`:
- `layer_key`: int = 4
- `name_key`: str = 'tcp'
- `codec_key`: str = 'msgpack'
Anyway, just changed it so that if `.msgstream` ain't set then we just
return a little "null repr" `str` value thinger.
Also renames `Channel.msgstream` internally to `._transport` with
appropriate pub `@property`s added such that everything else won't break
;p
Also drops `Optional` typing vis-a-vi modern union syntax B)
Obviously we can't deterministic-ally call `.load_ref()` (since you'd
have to point to an `id()` or something and presume a particular
py-runtime + virt-mem space for it to exist?) but it at least helps with
the `str` formatting for logging purposes (like `._cancel_rpc_tasks()`)
when `repr`-ing ctxs and their specific "rpc signatures".
Maybe in the future getting this working at least for singleton types
per process (like `Actor` XD ) will be a thing we can support and make
some sense of.. Bo
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.
