Alex Willmer 85d6046f2f mitogen: Fix non-blocking IO errors in first stage of bootstrap
When /etc/sudoers has log_output (or similar) enabled the process spawned by
`ctx.sudo()` via `mitogen.parent.Connection.start_child()` receives a stdin
that is in non-blocking mode. The immediate symptom is that `os.openfd(0,
...).read(n)` sometimes returns `None`, causing the first stage to raise an
unhandled TypeError.

The fix (for now) is to use `select.select()` in a while loop to read stdin.
This increases the command size slightly, but I think it's a reasonable
tradeoff until/unless the cause is more fully understood.

All CI tests are now run with sudoers log_output enabled, in order to catch
regressions. `first_stage_test.CommandLineTest` has been amended, because it
relied on implementation details of the bootstrap process that are no longer
true.

README.md

.ci

This directory contains scripts for Continuous Integration platforms. Currently GitHub Actions, but ideally they will also run on any Debian-like machine.

The scripts are usually split into _install and _test steps. The _install step will damage your machine, the _test step will just run the tests the way CI runs them.

There is a common library, ci_lib.py, which just centralized a bunch of random macros and also environment parsing.

Some of the scripts allow you to pass extra flags through to the component under test, e.g. ../../.ci/ansible_tests.py -vvv will run with verbose.

Hack these scripts until your heart is content. There is no pride to be found here, just necessity.

ci_lib.run_batches()

There are some weird looking functions to extract more paralellism from the build. The above function takes lists of strings, arranging for the strings in each list to run in order, but for the lists to run in parallel. That's great for doing setup.py install while pulling a Docker container, for example.

Environment Variables

  • MITOGEN_TEST_DISTRO_SPECS: a space delimited list of distro specs to run the tests against. (e.g. centos6 ubuntu2004-py3*4). Each spec determines the Linux distribution, target Python interepreter & number of instances. Only distributions with a pre-built Linux container image can be used.

    • debian-py3: when generating Ansible inventory file, set ansible_python_interpreter to python3, i.e. run a test where the target interpreter is Python 3.
    • debian*16: generate 16 Docker containers running Debian. Also works with -py3.
  • MITOGEN_TEST_IMAGE_TEMPLATE: specifies the Linux container image name, and hence the container registry used for test targets.
