Description Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2024-02-04 01:49:10 UTC
When I tried to make process.spawn call the event loop in order to address bug 916566 comment 10, it triggered this "RuntimeError: This event loop is already running" error because the _create_pty_or_pipe copy_term_size parameter triggers synchronous spawn in an async context:

We can use returnproc and then wait for it asynchronously if the event loop is already running:

We also need to prevent spawn recursion via _create_pty_or_pipe copy_term_size. This works:

When testing with multiprocessing.set_start_method("spawn", force=True), got a pickling error for os.environ that was solved by copying it to a dict like this:

For now I've omitted this patch from https://github.com/gentoo/portage/pull/1252 because it applies on top of 305612d1b04aa06d3d1a1c8b51d046a644742fd5 which I reverted due to bug 923755.

    set_term_size: Wait asynchronously if event loop is running
    
    When set_term_size is called from an asynchronous context, we
    can wait for the process to exit asynchronously. This will
    prevent a "RuntimeError: This event loop is already running"
    error in the future when synchronous spawn calls will need
    to run the event loop in order to wait for the spawned
    process(es).

I've found a better fix that prevents ForkProcess from unnecessarily calling self._pipe and clobbering self.fd_pipes[1] and self.fd_pipes[2] from SpawnProcess:

    SpawnProcess: Wait for async set_term_size
    
    Use the SpawnProcess _unregister method to handle async
    set_term_size results, avoiding possible messages like
    bug 925456 triggered:
    
        [ERROR] Task was destroyed but it is pending!
    
    Also update _BinpkgFetcherProcess and _EbuildFetcherProcess
    which inherit the _pty_ready attribute from SpawnProcess.
    
    Fixes: f97e414ce980 ("set_term_size: Wait asynchronously if event loop is running")
