 | ||||
| ## 1. Socket Credential Passing | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Problem | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| On Linux, `tractor` uses `SO_PASSCRED` and `SO_PEERCRED` socket options for Unix domain socket credential passing. macOS doesn't support these constants, causing `AttributeError` when importing. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ```python | ||||
| # Linux code that fails on macOS | ||||
| from socket import SO_PASSCRED, SO_PEERCRED  # AttributeError on macOS | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Error Message | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| AttributeError: module 'socket' has no attribute 'SO_PASSCRED' | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Root Cause | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| - **Linux**: Uses `SO_PASSCRED` (to enable credential passing) and `SO_PEERCRED` (to retrieve peer credentials) | ||||
| - **macOS**: Uses `LOCAL_PEERCRED` (value `0x0001`) instead, and doesn't require enabling credential passing | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Solution | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Make the socket credential imports platform-conditional: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| **File**: `tractor/ipc/_uds.py` (or equivalent in `piker` if duplicated) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ```python | ||||
| import sys | ||||
| from socket import ( | ||||
|     socket, | ||||
|     AF_UNIX, | ||||
|     SOCK_STREAM, | ||||
| ) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| # Platform-specific credential passing constants | ||||
| if sys.platform == 'linux': | ||||
|     from socket import SO_PASSCRED, SO_PEERCRED | ||||
| elif sys.platform == 'darwin':  # macOS | ||||
|     # macOS uses LOCAL_PEERCRED instead of SO_PEERCRED | ||||
|     # and doesn't need SO_PASSCRED | ||||
|     LOCAL_PEERCRED = 0x0001 | ||||
|     SO_PEERCRED = LOCAL_PEERCRED  # Alias for compatibility | ||||
|     SO_PASSCRED = None  # Not needed on macOS | ||||
| else: | ||||
|     # Other platforms - may need additional handling | ||||
|     SO_PASSCRED = None | ||||
|     SO_PEERCRED = None | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| # When creating a socket | ||||
| if SO_PASSCRED is not None: | ||||
|     sock.setsockopt(SOL_SOCKET, SO_PASSCRED, 1) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| # When getting peer credentials | ||||
| if SO_PEERCRED is not None: | ||||
|     creds = sock.getsockopt(SOL_SOCKET, SO_PEERCRED, struct.calcsize('3i')) | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Implementation Notes | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| - The `LOCAL_PEERCRED` value `0x0001` is specific to macOS (from `<sys/un.h>`) | ||||
| - macOS doesn't require explicitly enabling credential passing like Linux does | ||||
| - Consider using `ctypes` or `cffi` for a more robust solution if available | ||||
| 
 | ||||

| 
 | ||||
| ## 2. Shared Memory Name Length Limits | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Problem | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| macOS limits POSIX shared memory names to **31 characters** (defined as `PSHMNAMLEN` in `<sys/posix_shm_internal.h>`). Piker generates long descriptive names that exceed this limit, causing `OSError`. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ```python | ||||
| # Long name that works on Linux but fails on macOS | ||||
| shm_name = "piker_quoter_tsla.nasdaq.ib_hist_1m"  # 39 chars - too long! | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Error Message | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| OSError: [Errno 63] File name too long: '/piker_quoter_tsla.nasdaq.ib_hist_1m' | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Root Cause | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| - **Linux**: Supports shared memory names up to 255 characters | ||||
| - **macOS**: Limits to 31 characters (including leading `/`) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Solution | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Implement automatic name shortening for macOS while preserving the original key for lookups: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| **File**: `piker/data/_sharedmem.py` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ```python | ||||
| import hashlib | ||||
| import sys | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| def _shorten_key_for_macos(key: str) -> str: | ||||
|     ''' | ||||
|     macOS has a 31 character limit for POSIX shared memory names. | ||||
|     Hash long keys to fit within this limit while maintaining uniqueness. | ||||
|     ''' | ||||
|     # macOS shm_open() has a 31 char limit (PSHMNAMLEN) | ||||
|     # Use format: /p_<hash16> where hash is first 16 hex chars of sha256 | ||||
|     # This gives us: / + p_ + 16 hex chars = 19 chars, well under limit | ||||
|     # We keep the 'p' prefix to indicate it's from piker | ||||
|     if len(key) <= 31: | ||||
|         return key | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     # Create a hash of the full key | ||||
|     key_hash = hashlib.sha256(key.encode()).hexdigest()[:16] | ||||
|     short_key = f'p_{key_hash}' | ||||
|     return short_key | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| class _Token(Struct, frozen=True): | ||||
|     ''' | ||||
|     Internal representation of a shared memory "token" | ||||
|     which can be used to key a system wide post shm entry. | ||||
|     ''' | ||||
|     shm_name: str  # actual OS-level name (may be shortened on macOS) | ||||
|     shm_first_index_name: str | ||||
|     shm_last_index_name: str | ||||
|     dtype_descr: tuple | ||||
|     size: int  # in struct-array index / row terms | ||||
|     key: str | None = None  # original descriptive key (for lookup) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     def __eq__(self, other) -> bool: | ||||
|         ''' | ||||
|         Compare tokens based on shm names and dtype, ignoring the key field. | ||||
|         The key field is only used for lookups, not for token identity. | ||||
|         ''' | ||||
|         if not isinstance(other, _Token): | ||||
|             return False | ||||
|         return ( | ||||
|             self.shm_name == other.shm_name | ||||
|             and self.shm_first_index_name == other.shm_first_index_name | ||||
|             and self.shm_last_index_name == other.shm_last_index_name | ||||
|             and self.dtype_descr == other.dtype_descr | ||||
|             and self.size == other.size | ||||
|         ) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     def __hash__(self) -> int: | ||||
|         '''Hash based on the same fields used in __eq__''' | ||||
|         return hash(( | ||||
|             self.shm_name, | ||||
|             self.shm_first_index_name, | ||||
|             self.shm_last_index_name, | ||||
|             self.dtype_descr, | ||||
|             self.size, | ||||
|         )) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| def _make_token( | ||||
|     key: str, | ||||
|     size: int, | ||||
|     dtype: np.dtype | None = None, | ||||
| ) -> _Token: | ||||
|     ''' | ||||
|     Create a serializable token that uniquely identifies a shared memory segment. | ||||
|     ''' | ||||
|     if dtype is None: | ||||
|         dtype = def_iohlcv_fields | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     # On macOS, shorten long keys to fit the 31-char limit | ||||
|     if sys.platform == 'darwin': | ||||
|         shm_name = _shorten_key_for_macos(key) | ||||
|         shm_first = _shorten_key_for_macos(key + "_first") | ||||
|         shm_last = _shorten_key_for_macos(key + "_last") | ||||
|     else: | ||||
|         shm_name = key | ||||
|         shm_first = key + "_first" | ||||
|         shm_last = key + "_last" | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     return _Token( | ||||
|         shm_name=shm_name, | ||||
|         shm_first_index_name=shm_first, | ||||
|         shm_last_index_name=shm_last, | ||||
|         dtype_descr=tuple(np.dtype(dtype).descr), | ||||
|         size=size, | ||||
|         key=key,  # Store original key for lookup | ||||
|     ) | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Key Design Decisions | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 1. **Hash-based shortening**: Uses SHA256 to ensure uniqueness and avoid collisions | ||||
| 2. **Preserve original key**: Store the original descriptive key in the `_Token` for debugging and lookups | ||||
| 3. **Custom equality**: The `__eq__` and `__hash__` methods ignore the `key` field to ensure tokens are compared by their actual shm properties | ||||
| 4. **Platform detection**: Only applies shortening on macOS (`sys.platform == 'darwin'`) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Edge Cases to Consider | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| - Token serialization across processes (the `key` field must survive IPC) | ||||
| - Token lookup in dictionaries and caches | ||||
| - Debugging output (use `key` field for human-readable names) | ||||
|

| ## 3. Shared Memory Cleanup Race Conditions | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Problem | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| During teardown, shared memory segments may be unlinked by one process while another is still trying to clean them up, causing `FileNotFoundError` to crash the application. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Error Message | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/p_74c86c7228dd773b' | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Root Cause | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| In multi-process architectures like `tractor`, multiple processes may attempt to clean up shared resources simultaneously. Race conditions during shutdown can cause: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 1. Process A unlinks the shared memory | ||||
| 2. Process B tries to unlink the same memory → `FileNotFoundError` | ||||
| 3. Uncaught exception crashes Process B | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Solution | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Add defensive error handling to catch and log cleanup races: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| **File**: `piker/data/_sharedmem.py` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ```python | ||||
| class ShmArray: | ||||
|     # ... existing code ... | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     def destroy(self) -> None: | ||||
|         ''' | ||||
|         Destroy the shared memory segment and cleanup OS resources. | ||||
|         ''' | ||||
|         if _USE_POSIX: | ||||
|             # We manually unlink to bypass all the "resource tracker" | ||||
|             # nonsense meant for non-SC systems. | ||||
|             shm = self._shm | ||||
|             name = shm.name | ||||
|             try: | ||||
|                 shm_unlink(name) | ||||
|             except FileNotFoundError: | ||||
|                 # Might be a teardown race where another process | ||||
|                 # already unlinked it - this is fine, just log it | ||||
|                 log.warning(f'Shm for {name} already unlinked?') | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|         # Also cleanup the index counters | ||||
|         if hasattr(self, '_first'): | ||||
|             try: | ||||
|                 self._first.destroy() | ||||
|             except FileNotFoundError: | ||||
|                 log.warning(f'First index shm already unlinked?') | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|         if hasattr(self, '_last'): | ||||
|             try: | ||||
|                 self._last.destroy() | ||||
|             except FileNotFoundError: | ||||
|                 log.warning(f'Last index shm already unlinked?') | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| class SharedInt: | ||||
|     # ... existing code ... | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     def destroy(self) -> None: | ||||
|         if _USE_POSIX: | ||||
|             # We manually unlink to bypass all the "resource tracker" | ||||
|             # nonsense meant for non-SC systems. | ||||
|             name = self._shm.name | ||||
|             try: | ||||
|                 shm_unlink(name) | ||||
|             except FileNotFoundError: | ||||
|                 # might be a teardown race here? | ||||
|                 log.warning(f'Shm for {name} already unlinked?') | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Implementation Notes | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| - This fix is platform-agnostic but particularly important on macOS where the shortened names make debugging harder | ||||
| - The warnings help identify cleanup races during development | ||||
| - Consider adding metrics/counters if cleanup races become frequent | ||||

| ## 4. Async Runtime (Trio/AsyncIO) Coordination | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Problem | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| The `TrioTaskExited` error occurs when trio tasks are cancelled while asyncio tasks are still running, indicating improper coordination between the two async runtimes. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Error Message | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| tractor._exceptions.TrioTaskExited: but the child `asyncio` task is still running? | ||||
| >> | ||||
|  |_<Task pending name='Task-2' coro=<wait_on_coro_final_result()> ...> | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Root Cause | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| `tractor` uses "guest mode" to run trio as a guest in asyncio's event loop (or vice versa). The error occurs when: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 1. A trio task is cancelled (e.g., user closes the UI) | ||||
| 2. The cancellation propagates to cleanup handlers | ||||
| 3. Cleanup tries to exit while asyncio tasks are still running | ||||
| 4. The `translate_aio_errors` context manager detects this inconsistent state | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Current State | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| This issue is **partially resolved** by the other fixes (socket credentials and shared memory), which eliminate the underlying errors that trigger premature cancellation. However, it may still occur in edge cases. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Potential Solutions | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| #### Option 1: Improve Cancellation Propagation (Tractor-level) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| **File**: `tractor/to_asyncio.py` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ```python | ||||
| async def translate_aio_errors( | ||||
|     chan, | ||||
|     wait_on_aio_task: bool = False, | ||||
|     suppress_graceful_exits: bool = False, | ||||
| ): | ||||
|     ''' | ||||
|     Context manager to translate asyncio errors to trio equivalents. | ||||
|     ''' | ||||
|     try: | ||||
|         yield | ||||
|     except trio.Cancelled: | ||||
|         # When trio is cancelled, ensure asyncio tasks are also cancelled | ||||
|         if wait_on_aio_task: | ||||
|             # Give asyncio tasks a chance to cleanup | ||||
|             await trio.lowlevel.checkpoint() | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|             # Check if asyncio task is still running | ||||
|             if aio_task and not aio_task.done(): | ||||
|                 # Cancel it gracefully | ||||
|                 aio_task.cancel() | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|                 # Wait briefly for cancellation | ||||
|                 with trio.move_on_after(0.5):  # 500ms timeout | ||||
|                     await wait_for_aio_task_completion(aio_task) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|         raise  # Re-raise the cancellation | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| #### Option 2: Proper Shutdown Sequence (Application-level) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| **File**: `piker/brokers/ib/api.py` (or similar broker modules) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ```python | ||||
| async def load_clients_for_trio( | ||||
|     client: Client, | ||||
|     ... | ||||
| ) -> None: | ||||
|     ''' | ||||
|     Load asyncio client and keep it running for trio. | ||||
|     ''' | ||||
|     try: | ||||
|         # Setup client | ||||
|         await client.connect() | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|         # Keep alive - but make it cancellable | ||||
|         await trio.sleep_forever() | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     except trio.Cancelled: | ||||
|         # Explicit cleanup before propagating cancellation | ||||
|         log.info("Shutting down asyncio client gracefully") | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|         # Disconnect client | ||||
|         if client.isConnected(): | ||||
|             await client.disconnect() | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|         # Small delay to let asyncio cleanup | ||||
|         await trio.sleep(0.1) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|         raise  # Now safe to propagate | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| #### Option 3: Detection and Warning (Current Approach) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| The current code detects the issue and raises a clear error. This is acceptable if: | ||||
| 1. The error is rare (only during abnormal shutdown) | ||||
| 2. It doesn't cause data loss | ||||
| 3. Logs provide enough info for debugging | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Recommended Approach | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| For **piker**: Implement Option 2 (proper shutdown sequence) in broker modules where asyncio is used. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| For **tractor**: Consider Option 1 (improved cancellation propagation) as a library-level enhancement. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Testing | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Test the fix by: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ```python | ||||
| # Test graceful shutdown | ||||
| async def test_asyncio_trio_shutdown(): | ||||
|     async with open_channel_from(...) as (first, chan): | ||||
|         # Do some work | ||||
|         await chan.send(msg) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|         # Trigger cancellation | ||||
|         raise KeyboardInterrupt | ||||
| 
 | ||||
|     # Should cleanup without TrioTaskExited error | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||

| ## Summary of Changes | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Files Modified in Piker | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 1. **`piker/data/_sharedmem.py`** | ||||
|    - Added `_shorten_key_for_macos()` function | ||||
|    - Modified `_Token` class to store original `key` | ||||
|    - Modified `_make_token()` to use shortened names on macOS | ||||
|    - Added `FileNotFoundError` handling in `destroy()` methods | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2. **`piker/ui/_display.py`** | ||||
|    - Removed assertion that checked for 'hist' in shm name (incompatible with shortened names) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Files to Modify in Tractor (Recommended) | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 1. **`tractor/ipc/_uds.py`** | ||||
|    - Make socket credential imports platform-conditional | ||||
|    - Handle macOS-specific `LOCAL_PEERCRED` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 2. **`tractor/to_asyncio.py`** (Optional) | ||||
|    - Improve cancellation propagation between trio and asyncio | ||||
|    - Add graceful shutdown timeout for asyncio tasks | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Platform Detection Pattern | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Use this pattern consistently: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ```python | ||||
| import sys | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| if sys.platform == 'darwin':  # macOS | ||||
|     # macOS-specific code | ||||
|     pass | ||||
| elif sys.platform == 'linux':  # Linux | ||||
|     # Linux-specific code | ||||
|     pass | ||||
| else: | ||||
|     # Other platforms / fallback | ||||
|     pass | ||||
| ``` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### Testing Checklist | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| - [ ] Test on macOS (Darwin) | ||||
| - [ ] Test on Linux | ||||
| - [ ] Test shared memory with names > 31 chars | ||||
| - [ ] Test multi-process cleanup race conditions | ||||
| - [ ] Test graceful shutdown (Ctrl+C) | ||||
| - [ ] Test abnormal shutdown (kill signal) | ||||
| - [ ] Verify no memory leaks (check `/dev/shm` on Linux, `ipcs -m` on macOS) | ||||

| ## Contributing | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| When implementing these fixes in your own project: | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| 1. **Test thoroughly** on both macOS and Linux | ||||
| 2. **Add platform guards** to prevent cross-platform breakage | ||||
| 3. **Document platform-specific behavior** in code comments | ||||
| 4. **Consider CI/CD** testing on multiple platforms | ||||
| 5. **Handle edge cases** gracefully with proper logging | ||||
|
