Gregory Szorc <gregory.szorc@gmail.com> [Tue, 24 Nov 2015 22:50:04 -0800] rev 27223
mercurial: be more strict about loading dual implemented modules With this change in place, we should have slightly stronger guarantees about how modules with both Python and C implementations are loaded. Before, our module loader's default policy looked under both mercurial/* and mercurial/pure/* and imported whatever it found, C or pure. The fact it looked in both locations by default was a temporary regression from the beginning of this series. This patch does 2 things: 1) Changes the default module load policy to only load C modules 2) Verifies that files loaded from mercurial/* are actually C modules This 2nd behavior change makes our new module loading mechanism stricter than from before this series. Before, it was possible to load a .py-based module from mercurial/*. This could happen if an old installation orphaned a file and then somehow didn't install the C version for the new install. We now detect this odd configuration and fall back to loading the pure Python module, assuming it is allowed. In the case of a busted installation, we fail fast. While we could fall back, we explicitly decide not to do this because we don't want people accidentally not running the C modules and having slow performance as a result.

Gregory Szorc <gregory.szorc@gmail.com> [Thu, 03 Dec 2015 21:48:12 -0800] rev 27222
setup: refactor handling of modules with C/Python implementations Previously, .py files under mercurial/pure/ were copied to mercurial/* during installation if we were performing a pure Python installation. Now that the new import hooks and module load policy are in place, this hackery from the past is no longer necessary. With this patch, we stop copying modules from mercurial/pure/* to mercurial/*. Instead, we preserve the files at their original hierarchy, mirroring the source repository structure. In addition, we always install the pure modules. Before, we would only include the pure modules in the distribution/installation if the install-time settings requested a pure Python installation. The upside of this change is that CPython and PyPy can run from the same Mercurial installation, making packaging and distribution of Mercurial simpler. The inclusion of pure Python modules in the installation sounds risky, as it could lead to inadvertent loading of non-C modules. This shouldn't be a problem. The default module load policy is "C only" (or at least will be shortly) and the only way to load pure modules from an installation is if a) pure installation was requested b) the HGMODULELOADPOLICY overrides the requirement for C modules. The default module load policy as defined in source is a special string whose default value from the checkout is equivalent to the "C only" policy (again, not exactly the state right now). For pure installations, this default policy is not appropriate and will not work. This patch adds support for rewriting __init__.py during installation to reflect the module load policy that should be in place accoding to the installation settings. For default CPython installs, the value in the source file will change but there will be no functional change. For pure installations, the default policy will be set to "py," allowing them to work without having to set environment variables.

check-seclevel: set module load policy to Python only If we don't change this, the upcoming change to make the module loading policy only load C modules will cause this script to fail if run with CPython against an unbuilt source checkout.
Thu, 03 Dec 2015 21:37:01 -0800 mercurial: implement import hook for handling C/Python modules
Gregory Szorc <gregory.szorc@gmail.com> [Thu, 03 Dec 2015 21:37:01 -0800] rev 27220
mercurial: implement import hook for handling C/Python modules There are a handful of modules that have both pure Python and C extension implementations. Currently, setup.py copies files from mercurial/pure/*.py to mercurial/ during the install process if C extensions are not available. This way, "import mercurial.X" will work whether C extensions are available or not. This approach has a few drawbacks. First, there aren't run-time checks verifying the C extensions are loaded when they should be. This could lead to accidental use of the slower pure Python modules. Second, the C extensions aren't compatible with PyPy and running Mercurial with PyPy requires installing Mercurial - you can't run ./hg from a source checkout. This makes developing while running PyPy somewhat difficult. This patch implements a PEP-302 import hook for finding and loading the modules with both C and Python implementations. When a module with dual implementations is requested for import, its import is handled by our import hook. The importer has a mechanism that controls what types of modules we allow to load. We call this loading behavior the "module load policy." There are 3 settings: * Only load C extensions * Only load pure Python * Try to load C and fall back to Python An environment variable allows overriding this policy at run time. This is mainly useful for developers and for performing actions against the source checkout (such as installing), which require overriding the default (strict) policy about requiring C extensions. The default mode for now is to allow both. This isn't proper and is technically backwards incompatible. However, it is necessary to implement a sane patch series that doesn't break the world during future bisections. The behavior will be corrected in future patch. We choose the main mercurial/__init__.py module for this code out of necessity: in a future world, if the custom module importer isn't registered, we'll fail to find/import certain modules when running from a pure installation. Without the magical import-time side-effects, *any* importer of mercurial.* modules would be required to call a function to register our importer. I'm not a fan of import time side effects and I initially attempted to do this. However, I was foiled by our own test harness, which has numerous `python` invoked scripts that "import mercurial" and fail because the importer isn't registered. Realizing this problem is probably present in random Python scripts that have been written over the years, I decided that sacrificing purity for backwards compatibility is necessary. Plus, if you are programming Python, "import" should probably "just work." It's worth noting that now that we have a custom module loader, it would be possible to hook up demand module proxies at this level instead of replacing __import__. We leave this work for another time, if it's even desired. This patch breaks importing in environments where Mercurial modules are loaded from a zip file (such as py2exe distributions). This will be addressed in a subsequent patch.

changegroup: note during bundle apply if the repo was empty An upcoming change for exchanging treemanifest data will need to update the repository capabilities, which we should only do if the repository was empty before we started applying this changegroup. In the future we will probably need a strategy for upgrading to treemanifest in requires during a pull (I'm assuming at some point we'll make it possible to have a flag day to enable treemanifests on an existing history.)

(You'll need less-481 to display non-BMP unicode character.) [ui] graphnodetemplate = {ifeq(obsolete, 'stable', graphnode, '\xf0\x9f\x92\xa9')}
