protected by "if verbose:", which caused the test to fail on
all non-Windows boxes.
Note that I deliberately didn't convert this to unittest yet,
because I expect it would be even harder to debug this on Tru64
after conversion.
appears to be utterly insane. Plug some theoretical
insecurities in the test script:
- Verify that the SIGALRM handler was actually installed.
- Don't call alarm() before the handler is installed.
- Move everything that can fail inside the try/finally,
so the test cleans up after itself more often.
- Try sending all the expected signals in
force_test_exit(), not just SIGALRM. Since that was
fixed to actually send SIGALRM (instead of invisibly
dying with an AttributeError), we've seen that sending
SIGALRM alone does not stop this from hanging.
- Move the "kill the child" business into the finally
clause, so the child doesn't survive test failure
to send SIGALRM to other tests later (there are also
baffling SIGALRM-related failures in test_socket).
- Cancel the alarm in the finally clause -- if the
test dies early, we again don't want SIGALRM showing
up to confuse a later test.
Alas, this still relies on timing luck wrt the spawned
script that sends the test signals, but it's hard to see
how waiting for seconds can so often be so unlucky.
test_threadedsignals: curiously, this test never fails
on Tru64, but doesn't normally signal SIGALRM. Anyway,
fixed an obvious (but probably inconsequential) logic
error.
The first hunk changes the colon to an ! like other Windows variants.
We need to always wait on the child so the lock gets released and
no other tests fail. This is the try/finally in the second hunk.
at stopping test_signal from hanging forever on the Tru64
buildbot. That could be because there's no such thing as
signal.SIGALARM. Changed to the idiotic (but standard)
signal.SIGALRM instead, and added some more debug output.
64-bit boxes. I have no idea what the ctypes docs mean
by "integers", and blind-guessing here that it intended to
mean the signed C "int" type, in which case perhaps I can
repair this by feeding the thread id argument to type
ctypes.c_long().
Also made the worker thread daemonic, so it doesn't hang
Python shutdown if the test continues to fail.
of quoted test data relied on preserving a single trailing
blank. Changed the string from raw to regular, and forced
in the trailing blank via an explicit \x20 escape.
PyThreadState_SetAsyncExc(): internal correctness changes wrt
refcount safety and deadlock avoidance. Also added a basic test
case (relying on ctypes) and repaired the docs.
directories each time it ran, at least on Windows.
Several changes: explicitly closed all files; wrapped long
lines; stopped suppressing errors when removing a file or
directory fails (removing /shouldn't/ fail!); and changed
what appeared to be incorrect usage of os.removedirs() (that
doesn't remove empty directories at and /under/ the given
path, instead it must be given an empty leaf directory and
then deletes empty directories moving /up/ the path -- could
be that the conceptually simpler shutil.rmtree() was really
actually intended here).
In the 2.5 development cycle, MAKE_CLOSURE as changed to take free
variables as a tuple rather than as individual items on the stack.

on each iteration. I'm not positive this is the best way to handle
this. I'm also not sure that there aren't other cases where
the lnotab is generated incorrectly. It would be great if people
that use pdb or tracing could test heavily.
Also:
* Remove dead/duplicated code that wasn't used/necessary
because we already handled the docstring prior to entering the loop.
* add some debugging code into the compiler (#if 0'd out).

The test_run_abort() testcase produces a core file on Unix systems,
even though the test is successful. This can be confusing or alarming
to someone who runs 'make test' and then finds that the Python
interpreter apparently crashed.
These problems may mask more important, real problems.
One or both methods are known to fail on: Solaris, OpenBSD, Debian, Ubuntu.
They pass on Windows and some Linux boxes.

inspect.py, and pydoc.py. Specifically, this allows for querying the type of
an object against these built-in C types and more importantly, for getting
their docstrings printed in the interactive interpreter's help() function.
This patch includes a new built-in module called _types which provides
definitions of getset and member descriptors for use by the types.py module.
These types are exposed as types.GetSetDescriptorType and
types.MemberDescriptorType. Query functions are provided as
inspect.isgetsetdescriptor() and inspect.ismemberdescriptor(). The
implementations of these are robust enough to work with Python implementations
other than CPython, which may not have these fundamental types.
The patch also includes documentation and test suite updates.
I commit these changes now under these guiding principles:
1. Silence is assent. The release manager has not said "no", and of the few
people that cared enough to respond to the thread, the worst vote was "0".
2. It's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.
3. It's so dang easy to revert stuff in svn, that you could view this as a
forcing function. :)
Windows build patches will follow.
When a node number disagrees, keep track of all sources & the
node numbers they reported, and stick all that in the error message.
Changed all callers to supply a non-empty "source" argument; made
the "source" argument non-optional.
On my box, test_uuid still fails, but with the less confusing output:
AssertionError: different sources disagree on node:
from source 'getnode1', node was 00038a000015
from source 'getnode2', node was 00038a000015
from source 'ipconfig', node was 001111b2b7bf
Only the last one appears to be correct; e.g.,

to guess /which/ line the spawned thread is in at the time
sys._current_frames() is called: we know it finished
enter_g.set(), but can't know whether the instruction
counter has advanced to the following leave_g.wait().
The latter is overwhelming most likely, but not guaranteed,
and I see that the "x86 Ubuntu dapper (icc) trunk" buildbot
found it on the other line once. Changed the test so it
passes in either case.
that a 2.93 sec audio file will always take 3.1 sec (as it did on the
hardware I had when I first wrote the test), expect that it will take
2.93 sec +/- 10%, and only fail if it's outside of that range.
Compute the expected
Moved the code for _PyThread_CurrentFrames() up, so it's no longer
in a huge "#ifdef WITH_THREAD" block (I didn't realize it /was/ in
one).
Changed test_sys's test_current_frames() so it passes with or without
thread supported compiled in.
Note that test_sys fails when Python is compiled without threads,
but for an unrelated reason (the old test_exit() fails with an
indirect ImportError on the `thread` module). There are also
other unrelated compilation failures without threads, in extension
modules (like ctypes); at least the core compiles again.
Do we really support --without-threads? If so, there are several
problems remaining.
of values in the time tuple passed in. Unfortunately people came to rely on
undocumented behaviour of setting unneeded values to 0, regardless of if it was
within the valid range. Now those values force the value internally to the
minimum value when 0 is passed in.
The hppa ubuntu box sometimes hangs forever in these tests. My guess
is that the wait is failing for some reason. Use WNOHANG, so we won't
wait until the buildbot kills the test suite.
I haven't been able to reproduce the failure, so I'm not sure if
this will help or not. Hopefully, this change will cause the test
to fail, rather than hang. That will be better since we will get
the rest of the test results. It may also help us debug the real problem.
*** The reason this originally failed was because there were many
zombie children outstanding before rev 47158 cleaned them up.
There are still hangs in test_subprocess that need to be addressed,
but that will take more work. This should close some holes.
str() or repr()) would work, just not multi-value tuples. Probably not a
backport candidate, since it changes the behaviour of passing a
single-element tuple:

versus
'1'
handler would cause a segfault. This merges in Expat's lib/xmlparse.c
revisions 1.154 and 1.155, which fix this and a closely related problem
(the later does not affect Python).
Moved the crasher test to the tests for xml.parsers.expat.
