[issue1112] Test debug assertion in bsddb test_1413192.py

2007-09-05 Thread David Bolen

New submission from David Bolen:

The change made to Lib/bsddb/test/test_1413192.py to clean up temporary
files causes an abort in the DB library when trying to abort an open
transaction at object destruction type - currently when the Python
interpreter exits, because the transaction log file has been removed. 
In the Windows debug version this also causes an assertion pop-up dialog
window.  This has been seen on the 2.5 branch (r57311), trunk (r57286)
and py3k branch (57285).

The proposed change controls the object lifetime through a wrapper
object so the transaction object is destroyed before cleaning up the
filesystem.  It has the added benefit of permitting the filesystem
cleanup to work under Windows since the files are no longer in use.  The
test still generates a warning about a DBTxn aborted in destructor, but
does not abort the interpreter. 

I have tried testing this without the original (issue 1413192, r42177)
change to _bsddb that it was testing, but neither my modified version
nor the original seem to crash in my environment, so I can't say
absolutely whether or not the proposed change affects what the test was
originally designed to test.  I suspect subsequent changes to _bsddb.c
are perhaps also satisfying the original problem.

[issue10207] test_file2k crashes under Windows

2010-10-26 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

Can't really say why it's just hitting now more consistently but the failure is 
an internal CRT exception during a file close, when it is handed what appears 
to be an invalid FILE * (the internal structure has bad data).

I think it's more chance that it appears to be in the 86819-85819 change.  I've 
been able to generate the same error in 85816 with 4-5 test runs.  In all cases 
it's sporadic, but can trigger just by running test_file2k so doesn't require 
any other tests to have run.

With a local build and the VS debugger, the failure point is the CRT during an 
internal flush as part of fclose().  The FILE * structure looks like it became 
corrupted prior to that point.

The tail end of the failure traceback is:

msvcr90d.dll!_write_nolock(int fh=3, const void * buf=0x00f4e008, unsigned int 
cnt=1)  Line 322 + 0x6 bytes
msvcr90d.dll!_write(int fh=3, const void * buf=0x00f4e008, unsigned int cnt=1)  
Line 75 + 0x11 bytes
msvcr90d.dll!_flush(_iobuf * str=0x10311448)  Line 154 + 0x1d bytes
msvcr90d.dll!_fclose_nolock(_iobuf * str=0x10311448)  Line 105 + 0x9 bytes
msvcr90d.dll!fclose(_iobuf * stream=0x10311448)  Line 57 + 0x9 bytes
python27_d.dll!close_the_file(PyFileObject * f=0x00bef5d8)  Line 451 + 0x7 bytes
python27_d.dll!file_close(PyFileObject * f=0x00bef5d8)  Line 651 + 0x9 bytes
python27_d.dll!call_function(_object * * * pp_stack=0x0145f228, int 
oparg=12514776)  Line 3996 + 0x10 bytes

The last Python runtime code is in the close_the_file frame (fileobject.c, line 
451), it's the line:

sts = (*local_close)(local_fp)

and local_fp has bad pointers inside its structure:

local_fp0x10311448  _iobuf *
_ptr0x00f4e009 char *
_cnt16383   int
_base   0x00f4e008 char *
_flag   34178   int
_file   3   int
_charbuf0   int
_bufsiz 16384   int
_tmpfname   0x char *

I've also seem some cases where _ptr isn't explicitly flagged as a Bad Ptr 
(e.g., value 0x00e56031 with r85816) but is still invalid to access.

The local_close code runs outside the GIL, so maybe some sort of race condition 
with the parent Python file object, though the file object internal file point 
is NULL'd before releasing the GIL so I don't know if that seems plausible.

I'm not sure of the best way to trace back across the C/Python interpreter 
boundary - the trace above this is really just a lot of 
PyEval_EvalFrameEx/fast_function/call_function entry points with Python objects 
that are fairly opaque to the VS debugger.

One thing I do find interesting is that sometimes after continuing past the 
failure point the tests actually run to completion.  Not sure if that means the 
issue might be more in test wrapper code than the tests themselves, or just 
that continuing past the flush failure in the debugger is something the test 
can't detect.

I'll try to break down the test module later tonight when I have some more time.

[issue10207] test_file2k crashes under Windows

2010-10-26 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

Ok, when it fails, the failure always appears to be one of the 
FileThreadingTests tests, with the affected close() call occurring within 
_close_file, called from _close_and_reopen_file, called from 
_test_close_open_io.  It seems tough to backtrace the VS traces to the exact 
parent test due to the threading involved, but so far I've only been able to 
see the problem (with some debugging output added) while in 
test_close_open_print_buffered.

It's a little tough to be positive, but I can seem to influence the odds of 
failure a bit with host I/O load, and I have yet to see a failure if I remove 
that test, while limiting the FileThreadingTests class to just that test fails 
with about the same frequency as the original full class did.  So even if the 
issue is more general, that test seems the best way to exercise/analyze it.

So there does seem to likely be a real race condition somewhere.

[issue11487] build_installer.py should avoid relying on a young Python

2011-03-13 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

Just a few thoughts that were in part in an earlier exchange with Antoine.

It seems to me that if the Python-ast.[ch] files are included in the repository 
then they ought to be up to date as part of any given change set.  So I think 
I'd actually prefer having them touched in the master copy to avoid needing to 
be rebuilt (e.g., what presumably has been true up until this most recent 
change, although I'm not sure if switching to hg has changed something in this 
area).

If that isn't feasible (but the files are still in the repository) then there 
probably does need to be some way for the build-installer process to permit a 
more-recent-than-system python to be used.  However, it goes to some lengths 
(understandably) to avoid the risk of corruption from local system files, so 
it's not clear how to generically make a build script that uses "/usr/bin/env 
python" to work.

Manually touching the output files, either by build-installer, or a separate 
step in the build process controlled by the master (like the current umask 
step) seems to be least attractive, since there's no way to know for sure that 
the files are really up to date that way, right?  If they are up to date, then 
a checkout ought to reflect that, no?

[issue11487] build_installer.py should avoid relying on a young Python

2011-03-13 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

Note that some of my last comment was before I saw the others, so I'm fine with 
script changes if that seems ok to others.

>From Ronald:

"This is because the header file and input grammar have the same timestamp, and 
which forces the rebuild."

Note in the buildbot case the .[ch] files have much older timestamps than the 
generator script.  I think if they were the same it would be ok.  

I suspect this may be an issue now because the old svn approach was a full 
checkout for each build, whereas the hg approach is to pull to the local clone, 
and then just update the build tree.  So in the svn case all the files would 
have a good shot at the same timestamp, whereas with the hg approach the 
generated files get stale if the contents don't change.

I wonder if just doing a full checkout from the local clone would be closer to 
the old svn behavior in general with respect to timestamps and maybe a 
reasonable policy?

[issue11487] build_installer.py should avoid relying on a young Python

2011-03-13 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

Note in the meantime, I've manually touched those two files on the dmg buildbot 
and it builds successfully.  As Antoine pointed out to me separately, the hg 
update used by the buildbot should leave that intact, so this should stop any 
buildbot failures for the time being, or until the source dependencies are 
touched again.

2011-03-13 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

Guess I cry uncle - not sure how it used to work then.  I just did a dummy svn 
checkout off of the older svn.python.org from trunk and the .[ch] files appear 
to have dates earlier than the asdl.py script, so I would have assumed it would 
have the same problem.  Yet I don't recall this being an issue on the DMG 
slave, so guess we were just lucky somehow.

[issue12143] packaging extension gcc linking fails on Ubuntu Shared

2011-05-21 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

I just ran a manual build/test on the buildbot, and these underlying failures 
appear to be due to the "-l python3.3" option, which can't be found.  I also 
don't see that library in the build tree.  Instead, the library is built as 
python3.3dm (the buildbot process uses --with-pydebug and --with-pymalloc is 
now default in 3.2+).

Haven't dug much deeper than that, so not sure how the packaging tests are 
figuring out the shared library to link with.  I did verify that the sysconfig 
module variables that are related do all have the dm suffix information so it 
should be available to the tests.

[issue10641] kill_python sometimes fails to kill processes on buildbots

2010-12-06 Thread David Bolen

New submission from David Bolen :

On the XP and Win7 buildbots, kill_python sometimes fails to kill hung 
processes.  I caught one instance recently and gathered some information though 
not yet enough to identify the issue.  I can say that no processes are killed 
and no error messages displayed.  I think that implies either a process 
ownership-related snapshot failure (which can exit without error) or a failure 
to identify the processes.

I noticed issue10136 and considered it might be related, but in testing I found 
cases where the exact same usage of kill_python as this failing case worked 
fine, whereas if it was a path mismatch problem I would expect it to fail 
consistently. 

I have attached a log showing the hung processes, attempt to use kill_python, 
and final successful operation with the pskill utility.

In this case it was important to restore the buildbot quickly, but if I can 
catch it again I'll try to add some debugging code to kill_python first.

One thing that confused me along the way is that kill_python is only run at the 
beginning of a build and not as part of the clean process.  So there are cases 
where I have hung processes around, but they turn out to be killable when the 
next build starts.  I'm wondering if kill_python shouldn't perhaps be used on 
every clean operation too.

[issue10641] kill_python sometimes fails to kill processes on buildbots

2010-12-07 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

> To kill python_d.exe, you should use kill_python_d.exe instead of
> kill_python.exe.

Crud, I thought I did.  Well, ok, so can't trust this test.

> Could you post the buildbot log url?

I think this is the last build in the sequence that was failing until I killed 
the processes:  
http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/all/builders/x86%20Windows7%203.x/builds/2297
  ... the processes had been around for maybe 45 hours at that point, but I 
can't find the last working run in the waterfall display (I get back to 2252 
and then it sort of goes blank).

Maybe the main problem is just the sequencing ... the fact that kill_python is 
only used at the start of a build (but after the svn step) and not during the 
clean step at the end of a test run?  In this case since the svn step was 
failing it probably never got as far as running kill_python[_d].

[issue10641] kill_python sometimes fails to kill processes on buildbots

2010-12-07 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

> I think #9973 is rather related.

Certainly could be another artifact of a python_d process still executing. In 
particular though, the suggested patch in that issue agrees with what I was 
thinking might be needed, in terms of moving kill_python_d over to clean.bat.

Can't think of any downsides of applying that change offhand, so if that were 
to be made, we could just then watch and wait to see if another hung condition 
occurred.

[issue9973] Sometimes buildbot fails to cleanup working copy

2010-12-07 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

I wonder if it might be better to have kill_python run at the tail end of 
test.bat, since there's a potential window where losing a connection to the 
build master might not run the clean step, so still risk blocking a future 
build after a reconnect due to still running processes.

[issue8719] buildbot: segfault on FreeBSD (signal 11)

2010-12-27 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

Wouldn't that module have to be put into the actual source tree, since the 
tests run beneath the interpreter/libraries that are built for the test?

That may be what you meant, but "installed on this host" made me think I could 
do something external on the buildbot which I don't think would work given that 
the module has to be called from within the tests themselves?

[issue9973] Sometimes buildbot fails to cleanup working copy

2011-01-30 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

Probably - it's just a general sequencing change, so I suppose should apply 
equally to all platforms.  I suppose even better would be to consolidate the 
two clean scripts into one (with a parameter for 32 v. 64), but just patching 
both is less of a change.  Unrelated, but it's interesting how the amd64 script 
makes sure to be in the PCBuild tree before deleting byte compiled files, but 
the standard script doesn't.

Oh, I should probably also update my prior thought in this ticket, since based 
on a python-dev thread Hirokazu pointed out that just having things at the end 
of test.bat could be exposed if the actual test itself never returns to the 
script.

That might have higher odds than the build master losing contact with the slave 
between build and clean step, so the original patch is likely the better 
choice.  Or maybe do it in both both places.  

But just moving things to clean first would cover the vast majority of cases I 
seem to see on my build slaves, which only rarely lose contact with the master.

Perhaps somewhat orthogonal to the patch, but in terms of the original hang

[issue9931] test_ttk_guionly hangs on XP5

2011-01-30 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

If I recall correctly, if you're not using localsystem then its much tougher, 
as by default it won't have access to your interactive desktop, just something 
internal that you won't see, maybe just a hidden windows station.  You're right 
that the interact setting is only for localsystem.

It's been many years, but I think I had some code that located and attached to 
the interactive desktop (if one was currently available) from within a 
background service that I used in a remote management system.  Our remote 
service (functioned similarly to rshd) also ran under a specific user.

At least in theory I think you might be able to tweak the local buildbot code 
to execute any tests from within a child process that does the same thing 
first.  In the end it's only the executing test code that needs the access, not 
the buildbot itself.

If I get a chance I'll see if I can scrounge up what I did, but will take that 
off-line from this ticket since it's a broader question.

David Bolen  added the comment:

I believe it's XCode 2.4.1.

I know the script worked fine prior to the change that clears the environment, 
and commenting out just that piece of the latest trunk copy continues to work.

To be honest, I'm not sure how the build even finds gcc-4.0 (e.g., why it 
doesn't fail until ld) once PATH is cleared, nor do I fully understand the 
change.  How is the process supposed to work without a PATH?

[issue8475] build-installer fix for doc building on OSX 10.4

2010-04-20 Thread David Bolen

New submission from David Bolen :

The attached suggested patch changes build-installer to pass along the same 
Python executable that it itself is running under to the documentation 
Makefile.  This fixes an issue on OSX where pruning the PATH reverts to the 
system python (2.3.5) which is too old for Sphinx.  

This does now mean that build-installer itself needs to be run under 2.5+ which 
contradicts its initial usage comments.  I suspect we should just give up 
supporting it under 2.3, since an underlying tool no longer supports that, but 
have not changed those comments in this patch

[issue8476] build-installer fix for setIcon when no script path specified

2010-04-20 Thread David Bolen

New submission from David Bolen :

The attached suggested patch fixes a small bug where if you execute the 
build-installer script without an explicit path (e.g., "python 
build-installer.py") the setIcon compilation will fail since dirname(__file__) 
is an empty string, so it ends up looking for files beneath "/".

It also normalizes the function slightly, since part of the previous code 
explicitly used dirname(__file__) whereas part of the code just assumed the 
output directory was relative to the current directory.

[issue8455] buildbot: test_urllib2_localnet failures (Connection refused) on Tiger buildbot

2010-04-21 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen  added the comment:

For what it's worth, I added a few debugging statements to a local trunk 
checkout, and it looks like the port is getting lost somewhere along the way to 
setup the proxy... So the refused error is accurate and because it's trying the 
default port 80.  Note also that I think all the Proxy tests fail, even those 
saying they're ok, because the refused error shows up as a URLError which is 
what the test expects, but for other reasons.

Oh, and small item I noted while doing the test - the urllib2_localnet module 
doesn't clean up properly during the tests - all the local servers are left 
listening on their ports until all the tests are done.  Adding a call to 
self.httpd.server_close() at the end of run() in LoopbackHttpServerThread 
appears to fix that.

Here's a sample of one test... 

test_proxy_qop_auth_int_works_or_throws_urlerror 
(test.test_urllib2_localnet.ProxyAuthTests) ... Init done

[issue36876] Global C variables are a problem.

2019-09-11 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

The new test_check_c_globals.ActualChecks test is failing with an "unexpected 
success" on the bolen-ubuntu buildbot (under Ubuntu 18.04.3).  I can reproduce 
the failure in a manually built tree.

[issue36670] regrtest: win_utils decodes typeperf output from the wrong encoding (test suite broken due to cpu usage feature on win 10/ german)

2019-10-02 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Just an FYI that this change is generating warnings on my Windows 10 buildbot 
with some regularity about a failure to parse testperf output, such as:

Warning -- Failed to parse typeperf output: '"10/01/2019 07:58:50.056"'

from https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/217/builds/487

Now, clearly there's no queue length in that output so the parsing warning is 
accurate, but does the overall build have to reflect a warning in such cases, 
given that it's just a test harness issue, and not anything going wrong with 
the actual tests?  Previously any such cases would be ignored silently, so this 
probably isn't a new issue but just one that is now shows up as an overall 
build warning.

I don't know why both fields aren't present although it seems plausible that 
it's just a partial line from the I/O (I don't think it guarantees it receives 
full lines), and the queue length field would appear on the following read.

[issue36670] regrtest: win_utils decodes typeperf output from the wrong encoding (test suite broken due to cpu usage feature on win 10/ german)

2019-10-02 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Oh, I agree it's just a warning, and I suspect few people look into warnings, 
but since it's not from an actual test, I'm not sure the overall build should 
be flagged.

The manual typeperf looks fine, but there's no way I could tell visually how 
the I/O is being done under the covers.  My bet is typeperf is probably issuing 
multiple output calls, one for the leading timestamp and then one for each 
value.  So regrtest just happens to interleave its own read in between the two. 
 The subsequent read would then get the trailing "," which the current code 
would parse normally as it only cares about the second field.  In which case 
it's not even affecting the load monitoring, other than the warning message.

I suspect it's happening on the Windows 10 buildbot as the machine is 
reasonably fast.  But to your earlier comment about things just working 
previously, I'm not sure there's that much value in adding code to deal with 
this case.

I'd probably just remove the warning to restore the earlier behavior.  The 
current code still ignores other issues like an actual read failure in 
read_output.  Or, if there's a way to generate the message without it being 
considered an overall test build warning, that would work too.

[issue36670] regrtest: win_utils decodes typeperf output from the wrong encoding (test suite broken due to cpu usage feature on win 10/ german)

2019-10-02 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I've confirmed the partial read with some local modifications, and the failures 
are always split between time stamp and value:

Warning -- Failed to parse typeperf output: '"10/02/2019 17:42:26.229"'
0.0
Warning -- Missing first field: ,"0.00"
0.0

Adding multiple variables to the typeperf command can vary the split position, 
but I've only seen it at a variable boundary (starting with the comma).  So I'm 
guessing with the current implementation the above is probably the only point 
where the I/Os can be interleaved.

Also, CRLF seems to only appear at the start of each read, never at the end.  
You can see that behavior interactively too where the cursor waits at the end 
of the line between samples.  So changes to wait for a complete line to be read 
would also delay load values by one sample interval.

So I'm thinking just reverting to silently ignoring this case is probably 
simplest.

[issue38502] regrtest: use process groups

2019-10-18 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I don't know for sure that this is the cause but both 3.x builds following this 
commit on my bolen-ubuntu worker (Ubuntu 18.04.3) have had test_pty crash in 
the first attempt, with the retry succeeding.  For example 
https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/141/builds/2679

In spot checking, the same behavior seems to be occurring on many other 
non-Windows builders as well, presumably those for which it gets used.

There doesn't seem to be anything useful produced by the first crash.  Just an 
entry for "test_pty crashed (Exit code -1)" in the test log.

[issue38502] regrtest: use process groups

2019-10-18 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I can recreate this manually by running regrtest.py against test_pty.  Crashes 
with any "-j#" option, but fine when run sequentially.  Removing the process 
group change avoids the crash.

With the process group change in place, the trigger point appears to be the 
final "os.close(master_fd)" in PtyTest.test_basic.  Commenting that out avoids 
the crash.

[issue37945] [Windows] test_locale.TestMiscellaneous.test_getsetlocale_issue1813() fails

2021-03-29 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I don't have much of a horse in the race, but since the test has historically 
been skipped on Windows, and the test hasn't and doesn't work on Windows, 
modifications to restore the skip behavior seem reasonable to me.  The trigger 
for this issue was Windows adding support for underscore in locale names (like 
tr_TR) so the test began executing.  But it's not a regression or new issue, 
it's just existing reality becoming exposed.

The user machine and buildbot discrepancy can be attributed to version 
differences, as the buildbot hadn't yet received the same underscore locale 
name support.

I'd be fine with removing the test entirely - always skipping on a failure just 
seems pointless.  Then again, issue1813 created the test for a purpose on other 
systems, though even back then it appears it was complicated.  Leaving the test 
but skipping known failing systems (I guess at least Windows and OpenBSD) might 
be slightly less intrusive of a change, assuming the test is still serving a 
purpose elsewhere.

Separately, there's a lot of useful/interesting detail here which could inform 
any eventual normalization changes on Windows, should the underlying issue be 
deemed worthy of addressing.  But that seems like something that could be a 
distinct operation from clearing up the test issue.

[issue27129] Wordcode, part 2

2021-04-01 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Unfortunately, not at the moment - what's in the buildbot log is what's 
available.  The RTL assertion aborts the process.

The tests involved (such as test_clinic) do seem reproducible in a few separate 
tries, though again, all they do is terminate.

As the assertion should be correct, I'm guessing it's reflecting an earlier 
corruption.  There's some other oddities, such as the "Leaf" related failures 
in test_peg_generator that showed up at the same time, in case that offers any 
hint.  Since Leaf and StringLeaf are almost next to each other in grammar.py I 
can't see how it can be undefined.

The worker only has the core build tools version of VS so can't directly debug 
this further locally.  I can look into using a different machine to try to get 
some details, but I'm not sure as to timing.

[issue27129] Wordcode, part 2

2021-04-02 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Ah, Victor, that helps.  I was having trouble reproducing the problem on a 
different system.  I was suspecting a small difference in compiler version, but 
I hadn't considered it being because I started fresh.

>From what I can see, a particular build tree can be successful if it remains

But a pristine checkout on the buildbot of the latest master works, as does a 
git clean on the tree. 

I always use the buildbot scripts for building and they invoke a full clean 
first.  So either the clean process on Windows is missing something, or there's 
an artifact that is supposed to be kept in sync in the source tree itself that 
isn't.  I'm not familiar enough with the internals to guess at which yet.  I 
suppose given that it's not a problem on other buildbots argues for the clean 
issue, although I suppose it could also be something that is only kept in the 
tree to benefit a subset of systems, like Windows.

(While resetting the checkouts on the buildbot should therefore fix the current 
exceptions, I'm going to leave that alone for the moment, since that leaves it 
positioned to confirm any subsequent fix)

2021-04-02 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I'm out of time for a bit, but it appears that the root issue is old pyc files 
in Tools/clinic/__pycache__ that aren't removed during a clean process, and 
appear to be the source of all of the errors.  Manually pruning that folder 
fixes things.

I believe the regular (non-Windows) makefile automatically prunes all 
__pycache__ folders in the tree during clean which is probably why that's not 
an issue on other systems.

[issue43709] Windows Tools\buildbot\clean.bat misses some needed pyc/pyo removal

2021-04-02 Thread David Bolen


New submission from David Bolen :

The Tools\buildbot\clean.bat script used on Windows only removes pyc/pyo files 
from the Lib tree, leaving some files beneath Tools (clinic and peg_generator) 
and Parser (asdl).  This can cause failures following commits that affect those 
files, such as fcb55c0037baab6f98f91ee38ce84b6f874f034a (in issue #27129) 
leading to subsequent crashes or anomalous behavior.

This appears to have been true for a while, though only the 3.10 branch ran 
into the issue, so any fix might also be back-ported to the other active 
branches.

[issue43709] Windows Tools\buildbot\clean.bat misses some needed pyc/pyo removal

2021-04-02 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Something like this is a quick 'n dirty minimal fix - at least it seems to 
solve the problem that arose in issue #27129 on the Win10 buildbot:

--- a/Tools/buildbot/clean.bat
+++ b/Tools/buildbot/clean.bat
@@ -11,6 +11,8 @@ call "%pcbuild%\build.bat" -t Clean -k -d %*
 
 echo Deleting .pyc/.pyo files ...

+del /s "%root%\Parser\*.pyc" "%root%\Parser\*.pyo"
 
 echo Deleting test leftovers ...
 rmdir /s /q "%root%\build"

but since this only covers the buildbot script, someone working within the 
regular VS IDE and just using the clean target of the projects could presumably 
run into the same issue.  Or is there some other way to fully clean a working 
tree from within the IDE?  Not sure how important that is to address in any 
event.

I don't think reverting the commit at this point would necessarily be helpful.  
While it might fix some systems, it could newly break anyone who happened to do 
their first build since the commit was in place.

I didn't want to bug anyone over the weekend, but I've got a PR as part of 
issue #43709 that I believe would fix this going forward, if anyone with access 
might have an opportunity to review it.

[issue43719] Master build failure on Windows getting file system encoding

2021-04-03 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Terry, it's not clear to me if this is the same issue (at first blush it 
appears different) but could you see if you have any pyc files in __pycache__ 
folders within the Tools or Parser directories in your tree that could be from 
prior builds?  If so, remove them and try a new build?

The build.bat script's clean process is not currently cleaning them up, which 
can lead to various oddities if you reuse a source tree across the commit 
Victor references, as that invalidates the older files but they aren't 
regenerated.

[issue43709] Windows Tools\buildbot\clean.bat misses some needed pyc/pyo removal

2021-04-03 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Based on further information in issue #27129 as well as issue #43719 it appears 
a source of the problem prompting this fix was a failure to update the magic 
number in the original commit for #27129.

The windows clean script does still leave more artifacts than, for example, the 
Unix Makefile, but it shouldn't have resulted in a problem if the magic number 
had changed, and it's not clear it has to change after all.  So this issue can 
probably be closed once that is corrected.

[issue44252] test_ssl and test_httplib.HTTPSTest crash randomly with "Windows fatal exception: access violation" on Windows

2021-05-28 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

The win10 buildbot appears to have this failure consistently (100%) on the 3.10 
branch.  The first such failure appears to be yesterday 
(https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/600/builds/79), following commit 
da8097aaf5a55c23f5b5ddbeffc2d90d06e00d93 - GC changes for mmap.

I'm not yet having much luck reproducing manually (which is perplexing given 
the consistent failures during the automatic tests).  I did see one test run 
where 8 other tests failed instead, but haven't been able to repeat.  The 3.x 
branch also seems to be doing fine on the buildbot while including the same 
patch that was cherry picked for 3.10.

So this could be a false lead, but it might be another place to review.  Or for 
anyone who can at least sporadically get a failure (I'm still trying), 
something to try reverting.

[issue44252] test_ssl and test_httplib.HTTPSTest crash randomly with "Windows fatal exception: access violation" on Windows

2021-05-28 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Oddly, it turns out it's the "--junit-xml" parameter during buildbot tests that 
is making it reproducible there.

  Pass: python_d -m test.regrtest test_ssl
  Fail: python_d -m test.regrtest --junit-xml out.xml test_ssl

The latter consistently fails all of the time for me manually.

I also found what I think is the same commit Pablo just referenced (albeit the 
cherry pick version on the 3.10 branch) - 
ea47a8a71ad56ec349f02bf8c6a1d3bf04acabcc.  Reverting just that commit as part 
of the latest 3.10 source passes.

[issue30570] issubclass segfaults on objects with weird __getattr__

2021-11-14 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I don't know if this is a buildbot, test or 3.9-specific issue but this commit 
appears to have introduced a permanent initial failure (but success on retry) 
in test_pickle on both Windows 10 3.9 builders.  First failure for my builder 
at https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/425/builds/450

Fatal Python error: _Py_CheckRecursiveCall: Cannot recover from stack overflow.
0:14:47 load avg: 4.57 Re-running failed tests in verbose mode
0:14:47 load avg: 4.57 Re-running test_pickle in verbose mode

The 3.x and 3.10 builders seem fine, and the second try on 3.9 always seems to 
succeed (perhaps because it's just a single test running at that point), so 
this is only being reported as a buildbot warning.

[issue30570] issubclass segfaults on objects with weird __getattr__

2021-11-14 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

So I'm guessing something is just borderline under 3.9 on Windows.

In some manual testing with a standalone build of 3.9 so far for me:
  -m test.test_pickle always succeeds (executed directly)
  -m test test_pickle always fails (executed via test module)
  -m test -w -j1 test_pickle  fails, but succeeds on retry

The failures seem to always occur in CPicklerTests.test_bad_getattr.  I'm not 
sure how to run that single test via the test module, but limiting to all 
CPicklerTests tests or all test_bad_getattr tests succeeds even through the 
test module.

The last scenario above (successful retry) has to use -j or else no retry (-w) 
takes place.  That's the path the buildbots are following.

[issue38547] test_pty fails when using setsid()

2019-11-24 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I think fixing the underlying pty issue should certainly be the goal, but the 
question is whether the process group change should remain active in the 
meantime, as its presence is causing a regression in the tests.  I think such 
cases in the past are usually rolled back, right?

I was originally on the fence since process groups address a real problem, 
especially in interactive testing, while creating an arguably aesthetic issue 
for my case of the buildbots (a warning rather than failure).

But Pablo's point about a normal manual full test run failing (not a warning as 
with the buildbots) feels persuasive since that's probably as common as the 
issue being addressed by the change.  Even if pre-existing, the pty failure is 
exposed by the process group change, so it might be best for the process group 
change to wait on fixing the pty issue.

I don't know how to weigh the relative impact though, e.g,. how many people are 
likely to run into each failure case.  There's probably more people doing a 
normal test run than breaking out of such tests though.  At the least, it's a 
worst impact than just the warnings on the buildbots.

Perhaps an intermediate fallback could be gating the process group change 
behind a regrtest option (opt-in) which could then preserve its benefits upon 
request, without negatively impacting the default test process, whether manual 
or on the buildbots.

At least until resource is available to resolve the pty issue.

[issue27973] urllib.urlretrieve() fails on second ftp transfer

2020-01-01 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

The issue appears to be the temporary flag (O_TEMPORARY) that is used under 
Windows with delete on close temporary files.  That appears to prevent any 
separate access to the file by anyone else including obtaining another 
reference in the same process:

>>> temp = tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile()
>>> temp, temp.name
(', mode 'w+b' at 0x017958E8>, 'd:\\temp\\tmp44kugh')
>>> other = open(temp.name, 'r')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in 
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'd:\\temp\\tmp44kugh'

Changing the mode (PR 17774) of the temporary file has no effect.  Setting 
delete=False will work, but would defeat the point of using NamedTemporaryFile 
for the cleanup.

I don't see any way to have both auto-delete and the ability to write 
separately to a file under Windows with NamedTemporaryFile.

Perhaps instead use test.support.temp_dir for the overall test, and let it take 
care of the iteration temp files when cleaning up the entire directory?  
Something like:

with test_support.temp_dir() as td:
for i in range(self.NUM_FTP_RETRIEVES):
urllib.FancyURLopener().retrieve(self.FTP_TEST_FILE, 
os.path.join(td, str(i)))

That seems to work fine under Windows.

[issue42328] ttk style.map function incorrectly handles the default state for element options.

2020-11-27 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

This change to the 3.8 branch appears to be consistently failing on the Windows 
7 buildbot (first failing build at 
https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/270/builds/126).

It's all failures in the new test_configure_custom_copy and 
test_map_custom_copy tests, such as:

FAIL: test_configure_custom_copy (tkinter.test.test_ttk.test_style.StyleTest) 
(theme='vista', name='.')

AssertionError: {'foreground': 'SystemWindowText', 'selec[233 chars]bar'} !=

and

==

AssertionError: {'foreground': [('disabled', 'SystemGrayTe[34 chars]1')]} != {}
+ {}

-  'foreground': [('disabled', 'SystemGrayText')]}

Since it seems related to themes, I should mention that the buildbot is running 
with a Windows 7 classic (non-Aero) theme with all appearance effects disabled 
(the "best performance" option).  So I'm not sure if this is an issue with the 
code changes, or behavior due to the host environment not anticipated by the 
tests.

[issue43271] AMD64 Windows10 3.x crash with Windows fatal exception: stack overflow

2021-02-28 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I don't think it's actually any change in ceval per se, or any new buffers, 
just how the compiler code generation has changed due to this commit.

Based on some local testing, the triggering issue is the exclusion of the 
optimization pragma entirely in debug mode.  It appears that the existing code 
required the pragma to be enabled to stay within the available stack space.

A quick reproduction is running test_pickletools.  It fails abruptly and 
quickly, at least on the worker, without the pragma, but runs to completion if 
enabled.

Perhaps that aspect of the commit should be reverted, maybe with a separate 
flag for debugging ceval (but not normal testing)?  Alternatively, is there a 
way to increase the stack in debug mode to compensate?  Though I guess that 
would risk missing a release-build only stack issue.

[issue43271] AMD64 Windows10 3.x crash with Windows fatal exception: stack overflow

2021-02-28 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I hadn't tested release mode earlier, since the commit only removed the pragma 
in debug builds, but I just built a release build with the commit in place on 
the worker and it seems fine.

So barring stack changes (enlarging or improving usage) it appears the optimize 
pragma is required on Windows, at least in order to pass the current test suite.

[issue43271] AMD64 Windows10 3.x crash with Windows fatal exception: stack overflow

2021-03-02 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Steve, where is that configured?  If reducing that further would resolve the 
crashes while retaining ceval debugging, maybe that's a reasonable trade-off, 
though based on my testing, reverting still seems simpler.

Right now the debug build on the buildbot appears use the standard recursion 
limit of 1000, and some quick grep-fu didn't find a clear spot (either 
internally or just for the tests) where it would be reduced.  Could perhaps how 
it's done be something that doesn't influence buildbot builds?

The failing tests do all appear to be recursion tests of one form or another.  
Based on further testing, we'd need to have a recursion limit of 290 or below 
to get most of the test suite to pass.  Presumably something like 250 for a bit 
of head room.

However, lowering the limit appears to cover only most of the failures, not 
all.  Some tests directly play with the limits (like 
test_exceptions.test_recursion_in_except_handler and 
test_sys.test_recursionlimit_recovery) and still get into trouble, aborting the 
process, no matter how low the default recursion limit is.  so those tests also 
need changes to pass.  In addition, lowering to 290 created one new failure - 
test_compile.test_extended_arg now fails with a recursion error.  It seems to 
need a limit of about 900 to pass; I guess the test could temporarily reset or 
something but that seems especially kludgy.

Out of curiousity, are these these failures not occurring elsewhere?  It seems 
like something that would be happening in general (at least for anyone 
compiling debug builds).  I thought of checking CI builds, but they appear to 
use release mode, so would be unaffected.

Yes, that was the idea (revert the PyDEBUG condition only); it sounds like 
everyone is on the same page.

I've been doing buildbot duties only for a while (no code contributions since 
long before the current process), so there may be a short delay while I figure 
out this newfangled PR thing...

[issue40826] PyOS_InterruptOccurred() now requires to hold the GIL: PyOS_Readline() crash

2020-06-03 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I haven't had a chance to look too deeply, but the final set of commits 
(starting with fa7ab6aa) appear to be the common thread with all branches now 
failing with timeout exceptions in test_repl on the Windows 10 buildbot.

The first instance was in the 3.x branch 
(https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/129/builds/1191) but they all seem 
similar.

[issue40826] PyOS_InterruptOccurred() now requires to hold the GIL: PyOS_Readline() crash

2020-06-03 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

It appears the recent commit is causing a CRT exception dialog in 
test_close_stdin (test_repl.TestInteractiveInterpreter).  The dialog can't get 
answered, which is what leads to the eventual timeout.

The assertion is "_osfile(fh) & FOPEN" from osfinfo.cpp on line 258.  It 
actually appears twice (if the first is ignored).  If both are ignored the test 
passes.

I was somewhat surprised to see the dialog, as I believe CRT exception dialogs 
are disabled during test runs (others are present in test logs).  Perhaps the 
child interpreter used by test_repl doesn't inherit that behavior.  If so, this 
was probably always a risk, there just weren't any assertions occurring before 
this in the child interpreter.

[issue40826] PyOS_InterruptOccurred() now requires to hold the GIL: PyOS_Readline() crash

2020-06-10 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

So a script I use on the buildbot intended to prevent hanging on assertions was 
failing to work in this particular case, which I've corrected.  That changes 
the failure mode for new Win10 buildbot runs.

The test in question (test_close_stdin) still fails, but does so immediately 
(return code not 0, as the child process aborts) rather than timing out.  

If the assertion is expected, and something to be ignored, the test itself 
still needs to handle that.

[issue41273] asyncio: proactor read transport: use recv_into instead of recv

2020-07-19 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I can at least confirm that this commit is the source of the issue on the 
Windows 10 buildbot.  Interactively, it fails every time with it in place 
(unlike the buildbot which has had the occasional success) and passes reliably 
with it reverted.

The error arises during the SubprocessProactorTests test suite, but seemingly 
not with a specific test, just something that shows up when the entire suite is 
run.  At least I haven't been able to get it to occur by running individual 
tests.

Since the buildbot test output hides the underlying exception, here's the 
details of the two unraisable exceptions in question from 
test_asyncio.test_subprocess.SubprocessProactorTests.  I enabled tracemalloc 
but the original allocation is from the common utils module so probably not 
that much extra help:

[issue41273] asyncio: proactor read transport: use recv_into instead of recv

2020-07-19 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

First, I also no longer see the error with a local PR 21446 build on the Win10 
buildbot.

As for timing, I believe policy is to revert, but in my view it can probably 
depend on how short "a bit" is for the fix.  We've been in this state for 4-5 
days already, so one more day, for example, probably won't matter that much.

If it looks like it'll be longer, or the timing is uncertain, then I'd probably 
suggest reverting until the new PR is ready.

[issue39010] ProactorEventLoop raises unhandled ConnectionResetError

2020-09-01 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I've been seeing failures on the Win10 buildbot 3.x branch that seem to 
correlate with the timing of this change - could there be some further work 
needed on Windows?  Or, if it's a test-only artifact and the warnings are 
innocuous, something to ignore the output during the tests?

Specifically, the following warnings occur during test_asyncio:
   Warning -- threading_cleanup() failed to cleanup 1 threads (count: 1, 
dangling: 2)
   Warning -- Dangling thread: <_MainThread(MainThread, started 5220)>

See https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/146/builds/23 for the first 
failing build.

[issue39010] ProactorEventLoop raises unhandled ConnectionResetError

2020-09-01 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I'm guessing the warning appears odd as we're seeing a thread shutdown data 
race.  The message is produced by threading_cleanup in 
support/threading_helper.py, and it appears that between the first and second 
lines one of the initially dangling threads goes away, so the only one left to 
be enumerated is the main thread, at which point the function is simply listing 
all threads currently alive.  But by that point it's just the main thread 
remaining.

I notice in the test that you have a comment about needing to wait for f to 
complete or you get a warning about thread not shutting down cleanly.  Was that 
a similar warning?  The run_until_complete(f) line seems to have no effect on 
the buildbot.

If I added a small sleep at the end of the test the warnings go away on the 
buildbot.  The buildbot is a fairly fast machine, so perhaps the test just 
needs to wait somehow for the event loop to fully shut down or something.

The most direct cause of the warnings seems to be the self.loop.close() call - 
if I just comment that out the test runs warning-free without any extra delay 
needed.

I don't know much about asyncio tests, but it would appear the close call in 
the test defeats some of the logic in the close_loop teardown code that runs 
under TestCase (in utils.py), which under Windows is just a call to 
run_until_complete(loop.shutdown_default_executor()).  If I add that same call 
to the test prior to the close it also passes cleanly.

So if closing the loop in the test itself is crucial, I'd suggest including the 
extra run_until_complete call.  If closing isn't crucial to the test, simply 
removing it seems to address the issue.  I'm not sure if its removal then has 
any implications for the extra run_until_complete(f) call in the test, as I 
can't see any impact from that on the buildbot.

[issue13507] Modify OS X installer builds to package liblzma for the new lzma module

universal build (i386/ppc) in a single step (as in the build script recipes).  
It appears to use some compile options incompatible with multiple -arch.

For my buildbot, I built it twice (as i386 and ppc) and then combined the 
libraries (static and shared) using lipo.  This appears to work for both the 
regular buildbot and the DMG creation.

In peeking at the build script this approach is a bit beyond the current recipe 
process, so would need more work than just a new recipe.  Assuming a build/lipo 
process is considered legitimate for release installers, of course, I'm not 
that sure how much I ended up "cheating".

[issue36948] NameError in urllib.request.URLopener.retrieve

2019-05-21 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Since this patch was introduced to the 3.x branch my Windows 7 and 10 buildbots 
have been failing in test_urlopener_retrieve_file.  See 
https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/3/builds/2661 for the first such 
failure on the Win10 worker.

The problem appears to be related to those workers having an explicit TEMP 
folder that happens to use a lowercase drive letter, causing the test assertion 
to fail due to differing case in the drive letter.

While I could work around this by changing my builder TEMP definition, the test 
seems fragile on case-insensitive filesystems, so perhaps it should be 
comparing a normalized path instead?

Oh, and just for historical purposes, it looks like the root cause was that the

[issue36511] Add Windows ARM32 buildbot

2019-05-23 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I've been investigating issues with test failures on my Windows buildbots 
seemingly not showing up in the master's web interface (but just showing 
warnings), and it appears likely due to this change.

For example, test_urllib (a test problem from issue 36948) was failing but only 
appeared as a warning (the first such case on my Win10 builder for example is 
https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/3/builds/2661).

This change appears to force the exit code of test.bat to be successful (0) 
regardless of the results of the test run, thus obscuring any test failures 
from a parent process such as the buildbot.  As an aside, it also looks like 
any failures along the new arm32ssh branch would be obscured, assuming that the 
ssh operation would otherwise have propagated the remote exit code.

I think just leaving off the exit code (so just "exit /b") should propagate the 
rt.bat result properly.  Or, a goto to a label at the end of the file and 
letting it exit naturally would mimic the prior behavior.

[issue35433] Correctly detect installed SDK versions

2018-12-10 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I'm not that familiar (ok, at all) with the build process configuration, but in 
looking at the changes to python.props, it appears to now enforce the minimum 
in the build process regardless of whether it is found, whereas before the 
build tool was allowed to pick a default.

On my Win8/10 builders, I don't have an SDK that matches anything in the new 
checks (10586, 14393, 15063), but instead just have a single later (16299) 
version installed.  The Win7 buildbot does, however, also have an earlier 15063.

So what happens if none of the checked versions exist?  Am I correct that it'll 
enforce trying to use the minimum (10586) which won't work on my Win8/10 
workers since it doesn't exist, while the default behavior to just use the SDK 
I have would be fine

Or is the build tool supposed to ignore the missing SDK and still use a default 
if later?

It seems to me the older default of letting the build tool apply its own 
defaults if no known matching SDK is found is better than specifying a possibly 
missing SDK, but obviously the older default caused an issue in Jeremy's 
original case.  And since the prior behavior was just to try to avoid the build 
tool from defaulting to too old an SDK, another solution to problems in that 
case might be to remove the oldest SDK, thus moving the default forward.

[issue35433] Correctly detect installed SDK versions

2018-12-10 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Well, correct me if I'm wrong, but installing 15063 would then match one of the 
checks, and become the selected SDK, so be expected to work fine, right?

I think (not sure) that the issue with my Win8/10 workers is they only have the 
later 16299.  So in that case the build process is trying to enforce 10586 as a 
minimum (due to not finding anything else) which can't work.  Assuming I'm 
interpreting the new WindowsTargetPlatformVersion definition correctly).

When you say the "others were going to fail too" I don't think that's correct 
in all cases.  That is, the installed version doesn't match the checked 
versions, but it's later, so it could work fine.  And in this case it's the 
only version available so the default build tool selection is fine.

I'm guessing Jeremy's case was having older (not workable) versions and still 
not matching one of the checked versions, in which case the build default of 
oldest would fail.  And yes, in that case enforcing a missing version is no 
real difference since both options fail.

Not sure if solving both cases is possible, but at least letting the build tool 
default to an available SDK if no match is found seems more conservative.  It 
might still fail, but there are cases where it won't.  And it seems more likely 
over time that someone may only have a later SDK than that they'll have an 
earlier one or a guaranteed match to those being checked.  Or if we want to 
enforce specific versions, publishing them and forcing the build to fail hard 
would be an option too.

I don't think the difference in registry vs. folder checks is an issue, at 
least not for me.  On the Win8/10 workers, both the registry and filesystem are 
in agreement - the only thing available is 16299.

I'm also not sure if it's possible, but it would be great to have some output 
somewhere about the selection.  Right now there's nothing in the compiler stage 
output of a working vs. failing build to indicate why they are behaving 
differently.  But that's probably a separate topic.

[issue35433] Correctly detect installed SDK versions

2018-12-10 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Oh, since my reading comprehension must be low today, it appears like Jeremy 
actually had a closer situation previously as I'm in now, with a later (not 
older) version of the SDK that wasn't in the list.

Which is interesting, since he got an error about the SDK whereas my workers 
weren't having an issue at that point.

But I guess it still comes down to what to do if the hardcoded list doesn't 
match what's on the system, but the SDK on the system will actually work.  
Complain or let the default get used anyway?

[issue35433] Correctly detect installed SDK versions

2018-12-10 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

(sorry for the rapid updates)

I'm also fairly sure that none of my workers have update 3 for VS2015.  They do 
however all have VS2017 - but I think VS2015 still gets picked for 3.6 if both 
are present, right?  So that's another variable, in that my workers wouldn't 
have run into the update 3 issue with the older configuration that Jeremy did.  

Not sure if there's a way to have the build setup to work for both cases.

[issue35433] Correctly detect installed SDK versions

2018-12-10 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

> So before the change, the 16299 SDK wasn't being detected either, but perhaps 
> the 10240 one was?

So I'm just confused

It does seems likely that 10240 of the UCRT was being used (based on the 
attached msbuild logs).  Howevr, the UCRT warning in the build process was 
fine, and said I was using 16299 (see 
https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/31/builds/717/steps/1/logs/stdio for 
the last working build on Win10).  

I'm not sure what to trust - the msbuild log or whatever the ucrtused test is 
doing for detection?

In either case, this issue commmit does seem to force selection of the 
non-existent 15063 SDK, at least based on msbuild.log - the process doesn't get 
far enough to run the UCRT version check.

Using Win10 for the moment, under "Program Files (x86)" I do seem to have some 
older UCRT SDKs (in "Microsoft SDKs/Windows 
Kits/10/ExtensionSDKs/Microsoft.UniversalCRT.Debug") as 10.0.10150.0, 
10.0.10240.0 and 10.0.16299.0.  Whereas only 10.0.16299.0 exists in the 
"Windows Kits/10/Platforms/UAP" directory.

So I guess msbuild is not strictly picking the "earliest" for UCRT as 10240 
isn't quite the earliest.

In comparison, my Windows 7 worker also has the 15063 UCRT SDK so the enforced 
minimum works there for the UCRT path.  Of course, the ucrtused test in the 
build process seems to always say 16299.

I ran the requested msbuild command on the Win10 worker as part of 
PCBuild\build.bat just after the first find_msbuild.bat call.  I'm attaching 
the log files as msbuild-win10-good.log (commit prior to this change) and 
msbuild-win10-bad.log (after this change).

So I guess the question is exactly what do we need to enforce in the build 
process and/or provide at a minimum on a worker?  Should I just install the 
older 15063 SDK on Win8/10, or should we include some more recent versions in 
the build time version check?  What is a new user trying to build Python likely 
to have (assuming they're still using VS2015).

[issue35433] Correctly detect installed SDK versions

2018-12-10 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Hmm, VS2015 started as a full installation (with UI), probably right from its 
initial release.  The build tools only installation (v141) is for VS2017.

Best I can tell I'm at update 1 - my update version in the registry is 
14.0.24720 (plus I have a .1 installer still in the filesystem).  Not sure why 
I don't have 10586 if that came with update 1.  But I wouldn't be surprised if 
I'm no further.  The last time I used the VS2015 installer it completely messed 
up one of my workers and took a bunch of time to recover from.

When switching to VS2017 I think I thought it was going to be preferred for the 
3.x series when available, so I probably treated the VS2015 version as less 
critical.  I guess that didn't end up happening for earlier than 3.7.

Anyway, best next steps to close out this issue...

I assume my installing any matching SDK (say 15063) would allow the workers to 
match the build script.  Alternatively, including more recent SDKs (16299 is 
the next in line) in the build script would work with the existing workers.  
I'm fine either way.

[issue35433] Correctly detect installed SDK versions

2018-12-10 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Oh, it's not the installation itself, I'm just wondering if allowing a newer 
version is ok too?

Of course, it doesn't preclude expanding the build script in the future, so 
I've installed 15063 to both Win8/10 workers.

I don't currently have access to restart builds through the buildbot web 
interface any more, but if someone who does wants to rerun the last 3.6 build 
on each builder we can make sure this resolves the issue on those workers.  

I've done a quick manual build that compiles with the exception of not finding 
midl.exe for pyshellext, but that seems separate (every SDK has the binary) so 
I'm assuming it's environmental outside of the regular build environment.

[issue35433] Correctly detect installed SDK versions

2018-12-10 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

Ah, got it (and see the pipelines comment by Steve).

Jeremy, I suspect you might actually be able to restart the most recent 3.6 
builds on my builders since you were the committer.  It changed in Sep to only 
allow python-core users and the "owner" of the build.  Though I don't think I 
learned for sure if owner was the author of the commit or just the actual 
committer.

I think Zachary was going to look into it time permitting.  We probably need a 
different GitHub group for buildbot owners or something.

Separately, I think in the context of this issue I think it's fair to say that 
the commit need not be rolled back.  I have to imagine that anyone trying to 
build 3.6 using VS 2015 at this point is going to be better represented by 
Jeremy's worker than mine (in terms of VS point release and default SDK 
installation), and I expect to be able to resolve any remaining issues 
worker-side once some 3.6 builds go through.

[issue30126] CheckTraceCallbackContent of test_sqlite3 fails on OS X Tiger

2017-04-21 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen added the comment:

No recent changes to the buildbot (I think the last was in September to bump 
the local python used to run the slave/build installer to 2.7).

The default system sqlite (/usr/lib) is 3.0.8.6, so extremely old, but 3.6.11 
is in /usr/local/{lib,include} from early days of setting up the slave, so only 
marginally less old.  As long as the python build process finds that (which it 
appears to) it should be consistent.

I configured and built a local 3.x branch version of python on the slave and 
modified it to dump the version info during module initialization:

> ./python.exe
Python 3.7.0a0 (heads/master:d1ae24e, Apr 21 2017, 15:06:29) 
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5367)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sqlite3
SQLITE_VERSION: 3.6.11
SQLITE_VERSION_NUMBER: 3006011
sqlite3_libversion: 3.6.11

so it appears to be in line.  This local build still fails the test.

Maybe whatever feature is needed for this test is broken with 3.6.11.

One thing I did notice, though I suspect it's not an issue, but the 3.6.11 this 
slave is using seems to fall into the gap in the original bpo-9303 _v2 support 
patch where a _v2 prepare with a plain close (versions >= 3.3.9 and <3.7.14).  
Both plain and _v2 close methods have the same signature, but I wonder if there 
might be an issue mixing and matching?

I don't think anything else has a hard dependency on my /usr/local libraries on 
the slave at this point (the dmg installer builds its own local copies), so I 
could try updating that to a more current sqlite3 if we wanted to see if that 
resolved the issue.

The test appears to pass against a local test build of sqlite3 3.18.0, so I'll

does the test have a higher minimum version than it currently declares).

[issue30173] x86 Windows7 3.x buildbot has the issue #26624 bug

2017-04-27 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen added the comment:

Yeah, there were a few transient build errors while I was getting the buildbot 
back online.  My initial attempt to fix this ticket involved using the VS 2015 
installer which turned out very badly, so I had to fall back to an older VM 
image and start over.  But the older image had an older buildbot version which 
didn't work with the git workflow, which hit a few pending builds before I got 
it fixed.

I'm not yet sure if there may be some other fallback (e.g., the link error in 
the recent 3.x build seems familiar but I can't recall why offhand)

David Bolen added the comment:

Hmm, I wonder if this is another race condition similar to issue 8458?

I think that was thought to be related to the subprocess exiting quickly, in 
which case the question might be why that might happen more so than the actual 
descriptor error.

BTW, Victor, in case it would help, your account (vstinner, ssh key 
haypo@marge) still exists on this buildbot from past testing in 2011.  The only 
thing I'd need to re-enable is the port forwarding on my firewall.

[issue30225] EBADF error on x86 Tiger 3.x buildbot

2017-05-03 Thread David Bolen

David Bolen added the comment:

In running the test under a local build, the issue is very repeatable, but I 
believe it's actually due to slow process startup rather than a quick exit.

That is, adding a brief sleep after process creation and just before the 
Request() call seems to fix the problem.  I'm guessing the buildbot is sluggish 
enough that it just takes a bit longer for the process to start and be ready to 
be used.  

Whether or not that's purely a machine or test problem, or whether it means 
that perhaps subprocess.Popen() is returning sooner than it should with a 
process that isn't ready yet is unclear.  (Or even if subprocess can tell)

With the machine fairly idle, it looks like the minimum workable delay is about 
200ms - probably something a bit longer would be safer under load, if looking 
for a quick workaround.

[issue33608] [subinterpreters] Add a cross-interpreter-safe mechanism to indicate that an object may be destroyed.

2019-02-28 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I suspect changes for this issue may be creating test_io failures on my windows 
builders, most notably my x86 Windows 7 builder where test_io has been failing 
both attempts on almost all builds.  It fails with a lock failure during 
interpreter shutdown, and commit ef4ac967 appears the most plausible commit out 
of the set introduced at the first failing build on Feb 24.

See https://buildbot.python.org/all/#/builders/58/builds/1977 for the first 
failure.  test_io has failed both attempts on all but 3 of the subsequent 16 
tests of the 3.x branch.

It might be worth noting that this builder is slow, so if there are timeouts 
involved or a race condition of any sort it might be triggering it more readily 
than other builders.  I do, however, see the same failures - albeit less 
frequently and not usually on both tries - on the Win8 and Win10 builders.

For what it's worth one other oddity is that while having test_multiprocessing* 
failures are relatively common on the Win7 builder during the first round of 
tests due to exceeding the timeout, they usually pass on the retry, but over 
this same time frame have begun failing - not due to timeout - even on the 
second attempt, which is unusual.  It might be coincidental but similar 
failures are also showing up sporadically on the Win8/Win10 builders where such 
failures are not common at all.

[issue33608] [subinterpreters] Add a cross-interpreter-safe mechanism to indicate that an object may be destroyed.

2019-03-01 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

If I can help with testing or builder access or anything just let me know.  It 
appears that I can pretty reliably trigger the error through just the 
individual tests (test_daemon_threads_shutdown_std{out,err}_deadlock) in 
isolation, which is definitely less tedious than a full buildbot run to test a 
change.

BTW, while not directly related since it was only just merged, and I won't 
pretend to have any real understanding of the changes here, I do have a 
question about PR 12024 ... it appears HEAD_UNLOCK is used twice in 
_PyInterpreterState_LookUpID.  Shouldn't one of those be HEAD_LOCK?

[issue36085] Enable better DLL resolution

2019-03-30 Thread David Bolen


David Bolen  added the comment:

I just wanted to acknowledge that this was breaking on my Windows 7 builder 
(with a bad DLL load parameter in both pythoninfo and test steps).

It looks like I was missing the required KB2533625 (the machine is mostly a 
virgin SP1 install), so I've installed that now.  I've restarted the most 
recent build and it's already past both previous error points successfully.

Windows 7 is clearly on the wane, but as there may still be other systems in a 
similar state as my worker, the new KB requirement for 3.8 should probably be 
documented with the release.
