Description Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2018-04-30 06:44:47 UTC
All portage internals have been migrated to use asyncio compatible APIs, so the next step is to use asyncio's default event loop for version of python that have asyncio. Due to lack of support for forks in asyncio's default event loop policy (see https://bugs.python.org/issue22087), it would make sense for portage to set a customized event loop policy in any forks that is spawns, which can easily be done after the fork in the ForkProcess._spawn method.

    Minimize _asyncio_wrapper usage (bug 654390)
    
    Since migration to asyncio compatible APIs is now complete,
    minimize _asyncio_wrapper usage. Also remove _asyncio_wrapper from
    SchedulerInterface, since there are no more consumers.

    RetryTestCase: support ThreadPoolExecutor (bug 654390)
    
    In order to support the default asyncio event loop's
    ThreadPoolExecutor, use a threading.Event instance to
    support cancellation of tasks.

    asyncio: add _wrap_loop helper (bug 654390)
    
    In order to deal with asyncio event loop compatibility issues, add
    a _wrap_loop helper. For example, since python3.4 does not have the
    AbstractEventLoop.create_future() method, this helper function can
    be used to add a wrapper that implements the create_future method
    for python3.4.

    RetryTestCase: test ThreadPoolExecutor and ForkExecutor (bug 654390)
    
    ThreadPoolExecutor is the default asyncio event loop's default executor,
    so explicitly test it. Also explicitly test ForkExecutor, since it is
    more useful in cases where tasks may need to be forcefully cancelled.

    rsync: explicitly use ForkExecutor for key refresh retry (bug 654390)
    
    The ThreadPoolExecutor that asyncio uses by default does not support
    cancellation of tasks, therefore use ForkExecutor for task cancellation
    support, in order to enforce timeouts.

Comment 7 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2018-05-07 10:24:59 UTC
I've posted a patch for review, which will make portage use asyncio's default event loop for python3.4 and later:

    global_event_loop: use asyncio event loop (bug 654390)
    
    For python3.4 and later, in the main process, replace portage's
    internal event loop with the standard library's asyncio event
    loop. Continue to use portage's internal event loop in subprocesses,
    since asyncio's event loop is not guaranteed to work well in
    subprocesses (see upstream python issues 22087 and 29703).
    
    An _AsyncioEventLoopPolicy class, derived from _PortageEventLoopPolicy,
    is needed for some unit tests that modify asyncio's event loop policy.
    This policy is not needed for anything other than unit testing. Portage
    uses asyncio's default event loop policy, and API consumers are free to
    use any desired event loop policy.
    
    Portage's asynchronous functions that accept a 'loop' parameter will
    work with any compatible asyncio.AbstractEventLoop implementation, since
    an internal _wrap_loop function automatically adapts the loop for
    internal use.
