      bigfile/py: Stop using Plan9 C extensions · bf44905b
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      Starting from 5755a6b3 (Basic setup.py / Makefile to build/install/sdist
      stuff + bigfile.so skeleton) and 35eb95c2 (bigfile: Python wrapper
      around virtual memory subsystem) we were using Plan9 C extensions[1] for
      simple inheritance. Those extensions are supported by GCC with
      -fplan9-extensions option. However that option is supported only for C,
      while for C++ it does not work at all with error produced by the compiler
      on Plan9 syntax.
      
      Soon we'll need to add another extension - written in C++ - to
      wendelin.core . This extension will be providing client side of WCFS and
      integrating that with virtmem. In that extension we'll need to use
      _bigfile data structures - in particular we'll need to use PyBigFile and
      extend it with another `cdef class` children written in Cython/C++.
      
      This patch prepares for that: first stop using Plan9 C extensions in
      _bigfile py module data structures and adapt the code correspondingly.
      In the next patch we'll move those data structures into an .h file.
      
      We don't drop -fplan9-extensions from setup.py, because Plan9-style
      inheritance continues to be used internally by virtmem - e.g. in
      ram_shmfs.c and friends.
      
      A bit pity to drop that good stuff, but given that we'll need to use C++
      for WCFS client for other good stuff provided by pygolang[2], it is a
      reasonable compromise.

      bigfile/zodb: FIXME invalidations are not working correctly on blocks topology change · 8c32c9f6
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      I noticed this while working on WCFS: if file blocks topology change,
      the invalidation process is not working correctly. It is also not
      correct with respect to live cache pressure.
      
      Add FIXME in the code and test for live cache pressure.

      bigfile/zodb: Explain why we always mark ZBlk object changed if block data change · d27ade8e
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      For ZBlk0 this is trivial, but for ZBlk1 it may seem that we could avoid
      changing ZBlk object itself and mark only pointed-to ZData object as
      changed. However that would be not correct to do if we consider
      invalidations.
      
      Noticed while working on WCFS.

      *: Add package-level documentation to ZODB-related packages · d5e0d2f9
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      Add package-level documentation to
      
        - bigfile/file_zodb.py,
        - bigarray/array_zodb.py, and
        - lib/zodb.py
      
      The most interesting read is file_zodb.py .
      
      Slightly improve documenation for functions in a couple of places.
      
      Improving documentation was long overdue and it is improved only slightly by this commit.

      tests: Keep ZEO test database on /tmp/ · 70c998c1
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      We already keep FileStorage test database on /tmp/ and NEO itself (via
      neo.tests.functional.NEOCluster) also keeps test data on tmpfs. However
      test database for ZEO was created in current directory and was wearing
      out SSD unnecessarily.
      
      FIXME zeo_forker currently does not provide API to keep all server files
      in particular place. This way server conf and log are still emitted in
      current directory, but at least we move data.fs away. Since conf and log
      are uniquely named, e.g. server-<ΧΧΧ>.conf and tmpYYY.log, and it was
      only that Data.fs was named non-uniquely, by moving Data.fs into unique
      per-server place, this also helps with-ZEO tests to execute correctly in
      parallel with `tox -p`.

      bigfile/py: It is ok to have .fileh_open() as BigFile method · 7ee02038
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      There was an XXX of whether fileh_open should be a BigFile method or
      global function. However if it would be a global function it will need
      to anyway accept file parameter to indicate which file is opened, and
      that in turn suggests that it should be a file method. Remove XXX.

      *: Use defer for dbclose & friends · 5c8340d2
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      For tests this makes sure that if one test fails, it won't make following
      tests fail just because the next test will fail trying to lock test database.
      
      For regular code (demo_zbigarray.py) this is also a good thing to do -
      to always close the database irregardless of whether an exception was
      raised before program reached end of main.
      
      Pygolang becomes regular - not test only - dependency. Being regular
      dependency is currently required only by demo_zbigarray.py, but it will
      be also used in upcoming wcfs, so adding pygolang into wendelin.core
      dependencies aligns with the plan.
      
      dbclose now uses defer almost everywhere - there are still few places in
      tests, where one test function is opening/closing test database multiple
      times - those were not (yet ?) converted.

      bigfile/test/test_ram: Don't forget to free allocated Page structs · e8eca379
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      test_ram is low-level test that tests RAM pages allocation/mmapping.
      As allocated pages are not integrated with virtmem (not added to any
      file mapping and RAM->lru_list) the Page structs have to be explicitly
      freed. Fixes e.g.

      Fix build for Python 3.7 · bca5f79e
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      Starting from Python 3.7 the place to keep exception state was changed:
      https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/ae3087c638
      
      NOTE ZEO4 does not wok with Python3.7, because ZEO4 uses "async" for a
      variable and that breaks because starting from Python3.7 "async" became
      a keyword.
      
      After the fix wendelin.core tests pass under all python2.7, python3.6
      and python3.7.

      bigfile/zodb: Resync _ZBigFileH to Connection.transaction_manager on every connection reopen · d9d6adec
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      This continues c7c01ce4 (bigfile/zodb: ZODB.Connection can migrate
      between threads on close/open and we have to care): Until now we were
      retrieving zconn.transaction_manager on _ZBigFileH init, and further using
      that transaction manager for every connection reopen. However that is
      not correct because on every reopen connection can be given new
      transaction manager.
      
      We were not practically hitting the bug because until recently ZODB was,
      by default, using the same ThreadTransactionManager manager instance as
      Connection.transaction_manager for all connections, and not doing all
      steps needed to keep _ZBigFileH.transaction_manager in sync to
      Connection was forgiven - a particular transaction manager that was used
      was TransactionManager instance implicitly associated with current
      thread by global threading.Local transaction.manager . However starting
      from ZODB 5.5.0 Connection code was changed to remember as
      .transaction_manager the particular TransactionManager instance without
      any threading.Local games:
      
          https://github.com/zopefoundation/ZODB/commit/b6ac40f153
          https://github.com/zopefoundation/ZODB/issues/208
          https://github.com/zopefoundation/ZODB/pull/226
      
      Given that we were not syncing properly that broke wendelin.core tests, for
      example:
      
          bigfile/tests/test_filezodb.py::test_bigfile_filezodb_vs_conn_migration Exception in thread Thread-1:

          AssertionError
      
      What is happening here is that one thread used the connection and
      ZBigFile/_ZBigFileH associated with it, then the connection was closed
      and released to DB pool. Then the connection was reopened but by another
      thread and thus with different TransactionManager instance and oops -
      _ZBigFileH.transaction_manager is different because it is
      TransactionManager instance that was used by the first thread.
      
      Fix it by resyncing _ZBigFileH.transaction_manager on every
      connection reopen. No new test as existing tests already cover the
      problem when run with ZODB >= 5.5.0 .

      This has practical effect to restore line wrapping for xterm, as kernel,

      It is convenient not to see large kernel boot log on every test run. "1"

      Continuing 76d8f76d (Script to run compiled linux kernel with root fs
      mounted from host) update the script to run/debug linux inside QEMU:
      
      - teach it to run specified program + args, instead of hardcoded /bin/sh;
      - before tailing to user program, builtin init mounts /proc, /sys, ...
        inside - previously it was /proc, /sys from host seen on those
        mountpoints and it was very misleading - e.g. ps was showing processes
        from host, not inside, etc.
      - builtin init also cares to run specified program with the same current
        directory that was current on host, and environments such as $HOME,
        $PATH, $TERM, ... are also propagated.
      - allow to optionally run QEMU with graphics, instead of stdout only;
      - increase available RAM from 128M to 512M (with 128M running py.test
        inside is failing with fork: not enough memory).

      bigfile/py: Properly untrack PyVMA from GC before dealloc · d97641d2
      Kirill Smelkov authored
      On a testing instance we started to see segfaults in pyvma_dealloc()
      with inside calls to vma_unmap but with NULL pyvma->fileh. That was
      strange, becuse before calling vma_unmap(), the code explicitly checks
      whether pyvma->fileh is !NULL.
      
      That was, as it turned out, due to pyvma_dealloc being called twice at the
      same time from two python threads. Here is how that was possible:
      
      T1 decrefs pyvma and finds its reference count drops to zero. It calls
      pyvma_dealloc. From there vma_unmap() is called, which calls virt_lock()
      and that releases GIL first. Another thread T2 was waiting for GIL, it
      acquires it, does some work at python level and somehow triggers GC.
      Since PyVMA supports cyclic GC, it was on GC list and thus GC calls
      dealloc for the same vma again. Here is how it looks in the backtraces:
      
      T1:

      	#8  0x00007f6ac6d3dd30 in virt_lock () at bigfile/virtmem.c:92
      	#9  0x00007f6ac6d3e724 in vma_unmap (vma=0x7f6a7e0c4100) at bigfile/virtmem.c:271
      	#10 0x00007f6ac6d3a0bc in pyvma_dealloc (pyvma0=0x7f6a7e0c40e0) at bigfile/_bigfile.c:284
      	...
      	#13 0x00000000004d76b0 in PyEval_EvalFrameEx ()
      
      T2:
      
      	#5  0x00007f6ac6d3a081 in pyvma_dealloc (pyvma0=0x7f6a7e0c40e0) at bigfile/_bigfile.c:276
      	#6  0x0000000000500450 in ?? ()
      	#7  0x00000000004ffd82 in _PyObject_GC_New ()
      	#8  0x0000000000485392 in PyList_New ()
      	#9  0x00000000004d3bff in PyEval_EvalFrameEx ()
      
      T2 does the work of vma_unmap and clears C-level vma. Then, when T1 wakes up and
      returns to vma_unmap, it sees vma->file and all other fields cleared -> oops
      segfault.
      
      Fix it by removing pyvma from GC list before going to do actual destruction.
      This way if a concurrent GC triggers, it won't see the vma object on its list,
      and thus won't have a chance to invoke its destructor the second time.
      
      The bug was introduced in 450ad804 (bigarray: ArrayRef support for BigArray)
      when PyVMA was changed to be cyclic-GC aware. However at that time, even Python
      documentation itself was not saying PyObject_GC_UnTrack is needed, as it was
      added only in 2.7.15 after finding that many types in CPython itself are
      vulnerable to similar segfaults:
      
      https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/4cde4bdcc86
      https://bugs.python.org/issue31095
      
      It is pity, that CPython took the approach to force all type authors to
      care to invoke PyObject_GC_UnTrack explicitly, instead of doing that
      automatically in Python runtime before calling tp_dealloc.
