Description Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2023-10-24 20:05:18 UTC
When launching lib/portage/tests/ebuild/test_doebuild_fd_pipes.py via this script that runs pytest with the multiprocessing spawn start method, it fails and I'm not sure why:

> import multiprocessing
> import sys
> import pytest
> if __name__ == "__main__":
>     multiprocessing.set_start_method("spawn", force=True)
>     sys.exit(pytest.console_main())

Comment 1 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2023-10-25 03:49:00 UTC
DoebuildFdPipesTestCase attempts to pass a file descriptor (output_fd = 200) down to an ebuild process descended from ForkProcess, which only works with the multiprocessing fork start method.

I realized this after I added some debug messages to AbstractEbuildProcess and noticed this odd fd_pipes value where output_fd and stdin both refer to file descriptor 10:

{1: 5, 2: 5, 200: 10, 0: 10}
Comment 2 Zac Medico gentoo-dev 2023-10-25 04:15:38 UTC
If I remove the top-level fd_pipes then the test case basically works, until it fails like this:

> handle: <Handle _PostPhaseCommands._commands_exit.<locals>.<lambda>(<Task finishe...mp0cht39td/')>) at portage/lib/_emerge/EbuildPhase.py:592>

    test_doebuild_fd_pipes.py: multiprocessing spawn compat
    
    Use multiprocessing.Pipe for compatibility with the spawn
    start method. Also pass QueryCommand._db to the child
    process, like MergeProcess does.
