[issue19171] pow() improvement on longs

2013-10-08 Thread Mark Dickinson

Mark Dickinson added the comment:

> It would be crazy to not apply this little fix-up.

Crazy?  How so?

Note that this change, while introducing a performance enhancement in some 
rather unlikely corner cases, also introduces a performance regression in some 
other unlikely corner cases:

Before the patch (2.7):

iwasawa:cpython mdickinson$ ./python.exe -m timeit -s "a=7**1; b=0; c=23" 
"pow(a, b, c)"
100 loops, best of 3: 0.232 usec per loop

After the patch:

iwasawa:cpython mdickinson$ ./python.exe -m timeit -s "a=7**1; b=0; c=23" 
"pow(a, b, c)"
10 loops, best of 3: 13.8 usec per loop

That can be easily fixed with more special-casing and more code, but I don't 
think this sort of experimentation is appropriate for a bugfix branch.

Given a spec hasn't been written (bytes.__mod__ can't support the same things 
as str.__mod__), and nobody seems to step up to write it, I'd say this is 
unlikely to appear in 3.4.

It's the default encoding for Unicode text files and APIs on Windows,
so I'd say it *is* widely used :-)

I've never seen any UTF-16 text files. Do you have other data?

APIs are irrelevant. You only pass very small strings to then (e.g.
file paths).

See the link I posted.

MS Notepad and MS Office save Unicode text files in UTF-16-LE,
unless you explicitly specify UTF-8, just like many other Windows
applications that support Unicode text files:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd374101%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
http://superuser.com/questions/294219/what-are-the-differences-between-linux-and-windows-txt-files-unicode-encoding

This is simply due to the fact that MS introduced Unicode plain
text files as UTF-16-LE files and only later added the possibility
to also use UTF-8 with BOM versions.

> APIs are irrelevant. You only pass very small strings to then (e.g.
> file paths).

You are forgetting that wchar_t is UTF-16 on Windows, so UTF-16
is all around you when working on Windows, not only in the OS APIs,
but also in most other Unicode APIs you find on Windows:

I'd be curious to know if people actually edit *text files* using
Microsoft Word (rather than Word documents).
Same for Notepad, which is much too poor to edit something else
than a 10-line configuration file.

Still, unless those APIs get passed rather large strings, the performance
different should be irrelevant IMHO. We're talking about using those APIs
from Python, not from a raw optimized C program.

UTF-16 codec still fast enough. Let first make it correct and then will try

The converting to/from wchar_t* uses different code.

The question is not so much which program they use for editing.
The format "Unicode text file" is defined as UTF-16-LE on
Windows (see the links I posted).

Antoine, I'm just pointing out that your statement that UTF-16
is not widely used may apply to the Unix world, but
it doesn't apply to Windows. Java also uses UTF-16
internally and makes this available via JNI as jchar*.

The APIs on those platforms are used from Python (the interpreter
and also by extensions) and do use the UTF-16 Python codec to
convert the data to Python Unicode/string objects, so the fact
that UTF-16 is used widely on some of the more popular
platforms does matter.

UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32 codecs need to be as fast as possible
in Python to not create performance problems when converting
between platform Unicode data and the internal formats
used in Python.

The real question is: Can the UTF-16/32 codecs be made fast
while still detecting lone surrogates ? Not whether UTF-16
is widely used or not.

2013-10-08 Thread Serhiy Storchaka

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

I repeat myself. Even with the patch, UTF-16 codec is faster than UTF-8 codec 
(except ASCII-only data). This is fastest Unicode codec in Python (perhaps 
UTF-32 can be made faster, but this is another issue).

"As fast as possible" is a platonic dream.
They only need to be fast enough not to be bottlenecks.
If you know of a *Python* workload where UTF-16 decoding is the
bottleneck, I'd like to know about it :-)

No, they need to be as fast as possible, without sacrificing
correctness.

This has always been our guideline for codec implementations
and string methods. As a result, our implementations are some
of the best out there.

[issue12892] UTF-16 and UTF-32 codecs should reject (lone) surrogates

2013-10-08 Thread STINNER Victor

STINNER Victor added the comment:

I don't think that performances on a microbenchmark is the good question.
The good question is: does Python conform to Unicode? The answer is simple
and explicit: no. Encoding lone surrogates may lead to bugs and even
security vulnerabilities.

Please open a new performance issue after fixing this one if you have
another patch improving performances.

I didn't read the patch yet, but strict, surrogatepass and surrogateescape
error handlers must be checked.

[issue12892] UTF-16 and UTF-32 codecs should reject (lone) surrogates

2013-10-08 Thread Martin v . Löwis

Martin v. Löwis added the comment:

Marc-Andre: please don't confuse "use in major operating systems" with "major 
use in operating systems".  I agree with Antoine that UTF-16 isn't widely used 
on Windows, despite notepad and Office supporting it. Most users on Windows 
using notepad continue to use the ANSI code page, most users of Word use Word 
files (instead of plain text).

Also, wchar_t on Windows isn't *really* UTF-16. Many APIs support lone 
surrogates just fine; they really are UCS-2 instead (e.g. the file system 
APIs). Only starting with Vista, MultiByteToWideChar will complain about lone 
surrogates.

Thank you for your reply.
But I just realised that in my bug issue, I completely forgot to indicate what

fix the client code side as the traceback could be confusing.

This is how is defined req.:
opener = urllib2.build_opener(proxy_handler)
req= urllib2.Request(url_src)

then:
while 1:
  read_list = select([req], ...)[0]
  if read_list:
req.read(CHUNK_SIZE)


I found this issue with python 2.7, but I don't care a lot for it to be fixed 
in 2.7. As I saw that the code looks unchanged in python 3.x, I just reported 
the issue for it to be fixed/better handled in 3.x :-)

That'd solve the immediate need, and it'd be obviously correct how to have

Punting this to 3.5 basically means we'll have to either wait for 3.5, or do

Hah. Probably too slow for anything beyond a proof of concept, no?

[issue19191] os.path.splitext in windows , a little question

2013-10-08 Thread xiaowei

New submission from xiaowei:

>>> print( os.path.splitext.__doc__ )
Split the extension from a pathname.

Extension is everything from the last dot to the end, ignoring
leading dots.  Returns "(root, ext)"; ext may be empty.
>>> os.path.splitext('.txt')
('.txt', '')

 
I think, in windows it should be ('','.txt'), because the first dot doesnot 
mean hiding. Actually, in windows file explorer , it will show a empty file 
name and hide the extension if the extension has been related a program except 
shell32.dll,just like the attachment show. So, in windows, the last dot , even 
it's the first character of the file name, it still means the start of the file 
extension name.

In this case, windows doesnot like linux, we donot have to make them same. 

If you agree, then
why we can talk ignoring leading dots or not ..
i mean
os.path.splitext('...ext')

Anyway, thank you , for your work, even you donot think so

[issue19154] AttributeError: 'NoneType' in http/client.py when using select when file descriptor is closed.

2013-10-08 Thread R. David Murray

R. David Murray added the comment:

It seems to me that there is indeed an issue of some sort here, but its locus 
is (to me) unclear.  I haven't commented before this because I wanted to read 
the docs...but I haven't had time yet :)  

One question is, is it even expected that passing a Request to select will 
work?  If it *is* expected, then what is the API that req should be conforming 
to?  This API may be an implicit one that is not documented, or perhaps it is 
documented in select (I haven't checked).  If req is conforming to the explicit 
or implicit API, then the bug would be in select.  Otherwise it is in httplib.

Or, if this isn't something we've been supporting in the past, then as Terry 
says it is a new feature.

[issue19142] Cross-compile fails trying to execute foreign pgen on build host

2013-10-08 Thread R. David Murray

R. David Murray added the comment:

make touch avoids rebuilding "pgen and stuff", and just uses what was checked 
out or provided in the tarball.  The release tarballs are supposed to have the 
time stamps in the correct order so that the compiletime/boostrapping utilities 
don't get built/rebuilt.

So for cross compilation, you should be able to use the existing files to build 
the target python.  If you then also want pgen *on the target*, you will need 
to build it for the target.  Like I said, I don't have much experience with 
this stuff, but if I understand correctly, you only really the utilities if you 
want to be able to do development *of python* on the target.

So, if running make in cross-compile "mode" (whatever that looks like, I have 
no clue) tries to rebuild pgen in your scenario, then *that* is what needs to 
be fixed, I think.

Of course, I could be completely wrong, which is why I've been pretty tentative 
about handing out advice :)

[issue19171] pow() improvement on longs

2013-10-08 Thread Tim Peters

Tim Peters added the comment:

I'll revert the 2.7 change if people agree that's a good thing.  I'm fine with 
it as-is.  Armin pulled the idea from timing a Python public-key crypto project 
(see the original message in this report), where he found a 14% improvement.

I don't care if the trivial exponent == 0 case slows down - that's _truly_ 
unlikely ;-)  The time spent special-casing it would marginally slow down other 
cases without good reason.  For any exponent other than 0, reduction by the 
base must be done.

[issue19158] BoundedSemaphore.release() subject to races

2013-10-08 Thread Tim Peters

Tim Peters added the comment:

This is the "right" way to do it:  the subclass wants to extend the behavior of 
the base class .release(), not to replace it.  Calling the base class 
.release() is the natural and obvious way to do that.  It's also utterly normal 
for a lock used by multiple methods to be acquired & released multiple times - 
that's what an RLock is for.  What's odd to my eyes is that Semaphore - before 
the patch - went out of its way to _not_ use an RLock in its condition variable 
(Conditions use an RLock by default, for good reasons).

About acquire(), this is a bugfix - I'm not looking here to change code that 
isn't broken ;-)

[issue19142] Cross-compile fails trying to execute foreign pgen on build host

2013-10-08 Thread Trevor Bowen

Trevor Bowen added the comment:

Thanks, David!  I have no interest in running pgen on the target/host.  My only 
interest is building python and its various modules to run on my embedded host. 
 I do not want to develop Python on the embedded host.  Unfortunately, the 
build process requires Parser/pgen to build the grammar files, which are needed 
for several object files.  Here's the relevant snippet from the Makefile.pre.in:

$(GRAMMAR_H): $(GRAMMAR_INPUT) $(PGENSRCS)
@$(MKDIR_P) Include
$(MAKE) $(PGEN)
$(PGEN) $(GRAMMAR_INPUT) $(GRAMMAR_H) $(GRAMMAR_C)
$(GRAMMAR_C): $(GRAMMAR_H) $(GRAMMAR_INPUT) $(PGENSRCS)
$(MAKE) $(GRAMMAR_H)
touch $(GRAMMAR_C)

$(PGEN):$(PGENOBJS)
$(CC) $(OPT) $(LDFLAGS) $(PGENOBJS) $(LIBS) -o $(PGEN)

Parser/grammar.o:   $(srcdir)/Parser/grammar.c \
$(srcdir)/Include/token.h \
$(srcdir)/Include/grammar.h
...
Python/compile.o Python/symtable.o Python/ast.o: $(GRAMMAR_H) $(AST_H)

If there is a way to eliminate the need for Parser/pgen to run on the build 
system to cross-compile the default "all" target, that would be great. ... I'll 
experiment with "make touch". ... Thanks!

[issue19154] AttributeError: 'NoneType' in http/client.py when using select when file descriptor is closed.

2013-10-08 Thread Florent Viard

Florent Viard added the comment:

R. David, what you say is correct, supporting "select" that would be nice but 
i'm also not sure that is supposed to, and in that case, maybe select as to be 
fixed for that.

But:
a) As urllib2 through httplib provide publicly a fileno, i was excepting so.
b) The real point of my issue is that i noticed that there is 3 different 
return values, for the similar fileno function in 3 different modules of 
python, when the file descriptor is closed or inexistant:
- in urllib2->httplib: AttributeError as "None" as no "fileno()" attribute.
- in socket : ValueError
- in fileinput: -1

And for the 2 firsts, one is finally using the fileno function of the other.

2013-10-08 Thread Trevor Bowen

Trevor Bowen added the comment:

I executed "make touch" between "configure" and "make", but the build process 
still created Parser/pgen and then tried to use it, which of course crashed the 
build, since pgen was compiled for the embedded host not the build system.  :(  
Was that the wrong usage?

Well... IMOHO it would be "natural and obvious" if those were in
different modules written by different developers.
Here I think that "practicality beats purity", though.
(although I'm not sure the person who originally wrote that sentence can
really be trusted ;-))

[issue19171] pow() improvement on longs

2013-10-08 Thread Mark Dickinson

Mark Dickinson added the comment:

No need to revert.  The improvement seems like a good one; I was just a bit 
surprised to see it land in the maintenance branches as well as the default 
branch.  My understanding was that minor performance improvements aren't 
normally candidates for inclusion in 2.7.  Maybe Benjamin can clarify the 
policy here.

> I don't care if the trivial exponent == 0 case slows down [...]

Sure; I guess my point was that even the simplest change can have unexpected / 
unintended consequences, which is one of the reasons that it makes sense to me 
to avoid non-bugfix changes in 2.7 / 3.3.

(We're not totally without use-cases for special-casing pow(a, 0, b), by the 
way:  such a pow operation occurs any time you do 
`hash(Decimal(some_integer))`, though admittedly not with an oversized a.)

Tim Peters added the comment:

I'm glad you pointed it out, Mark!  You're right about unintended consequences, 
and I confess I didn't think at all about the exponent == 0 case.

I didn't remind myself that 2.7 was a bugfix branch either:  I read Armin's 
"(which can be applied on both trunk and 2.7)" and reflexively checked it in.

I'd _say_ I'd be more careful about that in the future, but since I still use 
2.7.5 for most of my private work I wouldn't believe me either ;-)

[issue19167] sqlite3 cursor.description varies across Linux (3.3.1), Win32 (3.3.2), when selecting from a view.

2013-10-08 Thread mpb

mpb added the comment:

No, I have not checked to see if it is a bug in the Windows version of SQLite.

How would I even test that?

I just tried running the command line version of SQLite (version 3.8.0.2 
2013-09-03) on Windows (XP SP2, in VirtualBox).

I manually ran the same statements from the Python script.  I turned on headers 
(.headers ON).  The headers did not contain the quotes around foo_id.

That's probably all the testing I can do easily, unless there is some other way 
to access the cursor description.  I don't have a C development environment 
installed on Windows, nor have I ever written C code that calls SQLite.

[issue19158] BoundedSemaphore.release() subject to races

2013-10-08 Thread Tim Peters

Tim Peters added the comment:

Antoine, how strongly do you feel about this?  I confess I don't get it.  
Copy+paste code duplication doesn't help any of readability, correctness, or 
ease of future maintenance, so I guess it's some micro-efficiency concern.  
Really?! ;-)

Note that the patch doesn't _introduce_ calling the base class .release() - the 
code always did that.  All it does is put the pre-existing code in a `with:` 
block.  Minimal change.  Yes, the pre-existing code had to be indented, but no 
non-whitespace character changed.

Of course in this case it's trivial either way.  So if I have to duplicate the 
code to get your blessing, fine.  On the other hand, since it _is_ trivial 
either way, I'd rather not bother ;-)

Not very strongly, admittedly. It's just that I find the double locking
a bit silly while we control both implementations :-)

[issue19142] Cross-compile fails trying to execute foreign pgen on build host

2013-10-08 Thread R. David Murray

R. David Murray added the comment:

I believe that's the correct usage, in which case there must be a bug in the 
process somewhere.  My guess would be that it is looking for a file in the 
"wrong" place when doing a cross compile, but that's just a guess.

[issue19154] AttributeError: 'NoneType' in http/client.py when using select when file descriptor is closed.

2013-10-08 Thread R. David Murray

R. David Murray added the comment:

OK, I've looked at the docs and code, and as far as I can see this bug does not 
exist in Python3.  Or at least in 3.4, which is the only place I'd feel safe 
about making a change to the exception type.

To summarize: in 3.4 socket logic is based on RawIOBase, as is HTTPResponse.  
And RawIOBase checks to see if the file is closed and raises a ValueError if it 
is, when fileno is called on the 'fp' attribute of the HTTPResponse.  At least, 
that's what I think based on reading the code.

So, unless you can reproduce the error in 3.3 and/or 3.4, I think we should 
close this issue as out of date, since as Terry said there is a non-trivial 
danger of backward incompatibility if we were to change the exception type in 
2.7.

[issue19154] AttributeError: 'NoneType' in http/client.py when using select when file descriptor is closed.

2013-10-08 Thread Terry J. Reedy

Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

Florent, for future reference, marking an issue for 2.7 says to us "I  want 
this fixed for 2.7".

I agree that having 3 different error indicators for 3 similar functions is 
nasty. But this is partly due to the difference between object that *has* a fd 
(socket) versus a object that *wraps such an object. The problem is that 
changing any of them could break code that just uses one of them. 

The select doc says that a 'waitable' object must have .fileno() that return a 
valid fd int. It says nothing about an allowed error return. This could be 
interpreted as meaning that not returning an fd int makes the object (such as a 
closed HTTPResponse) unwaitable. Or this could be interpreted as a deficiency 
in the select doc or code. In the module/selectmodule.c code, the various poll 
methods interpret -1 as the error return for a closed fd. I do not know how it 
deals with socket.fileno raising ValueError (or returning None?).

In the client doc, none of several examples of using HTTPResponses use select. 
They just use the various methods to retrieve data. I could interpret this to 
mean that they are not intended to work with select. The fact that they do not, 
reinforces that.

Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

I think ValueError should generally be raised when calling fileno() on a closed 
file. However, this is not something we're gonna change in a bugfix release, so 
it would go in 3.4 at the earliest.
