v5 cover Support building with py2 or py3

This is an update for my previously posted series:

v2: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-08/msg06528.html
v3: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-01/msg02978.html
v4: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-01/msg03150.html

This series enables some level of CI testing for py3 so that our CI jobs will get coverage of both py2 and py3 builds to avoid bitrot.

I did a test travis build with py 3.0 and py 3.6 and got success:

https://travis-ci.org/berrange/qemu/builds/328223261

The goal was to achieve the following

  ./configure --python=/usr/bin/python3
  make
  make check

This still requires passing python path to configure explicitly. A further improvement would be for configure to automatically detect a pythjon 3 binary and use it preferentially to python 2.

I have not attempted to fix/validate the block I/O tests. I would expect them to be broken, but easily fixable with the similar kind of scope changes as seen here. I felt it better to tackle that separately to avoid this initial series getting too large.

Although the Python 2 EOL date is 2020, we already have distros which are not shipping Python 2 by default (Fedora >= 26 has dropped Py2 from the default install). Any new releases of long life and/or enterprise distros may well not ship Python 2 given that it would go EOL long before the EOL of the distro itself. IOW QEMU does have a fairly pressing need to be able to support Python 3 for building.

A request for py3 is tracked here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1708462

If, rather than supporting py2+py3 in parallel, we wish to entirely drop py2 support, this series would not change significantly

- The "from __future__ import print_function" line can be removed from patch 1.
- The code in patches 2, 3, 4 to deal with changed module names for a few functions can be simpified to only try the py3 location
- The travis + docker jobs would be fully updated to install py3, or delete jobs which can't support py3

Given how little code is removed should we drop py2 support, I don't believe it is in our immediate interests to do this. It would create extra pain for consumers of QEMU, with little benefit to QEMU code maintainance. The key thing is ensuring our travis+docker jobs provide satisfactory automated test coverage for the variety of python versions in the distros we care about targetting.

NB, Patch 11 here is not related to python 3 work - it was just a temporary pre-requisite of pulling in the keycodemapdb update.

Changes since v4:

- Fix broken rebase which accidentally squashed first two patches together
- Unset LC_ALL, and set LANG + LC_CTYPE, instead of only LANG (Eric)

Changes since v3:

- Remove space before '(' in print() function calls (Phillippe)
- Force use of en_US.UTF-8 for QAPI code generation (Patchew)

Changes since v2:

- Pull in fix for keycodemapdb
- Enable testing with Travis
- Enable testing with Fedora Docker images
- Fix for sort ordering to fix 'make check-qapi-schema'
- Fix for signrom data

PATCH v5 1/14 qapi: convert to use python print function instead of statement

Python 3 no longer supports the bare "print" statement, it must be called as a normal function with round brackets. It is possible to opt-in to this new syntax with Python 2.6 onwards by importing the "print_function" from the "__future__" module, making it easy to support Python 2 and 3 in parallel.

PATCH v5 2/14 qapi: use items()/values() intead of iteritems()/itervalues()

In reply to Daniel P. Berrange

The iteritems()/itervalues() methods are gone in py3, but the items()/values() methods are still around. The latter are less efficient than the former in py2, but this has unmeasurably small impact on QEMU build time, so taking portability over efficiency is a net win.

The OrderedDict class appeared in the 'collections' module from python 2.7 onwards, so use that in preference to our local backport if available.

PATCH v5 6/14 qapi: remove '-q' arg to diff when comparing QAPI output

In reply to Daniel P. Berrange

When the qapi schema tests fail they merely print that the expected output didn't match the actual output. This is largely useless when trying diagnose what went wrong. Removing the '-q' arg to diff means that it is still silent on successful tests, but when it fails we'll see details of the incorrect output.

And just now I'm noticing that this produces an ed-script diff (which is useless), instead of a context diff. We want -c. I guess I'll be submitting the obvious followup patch.

Well not entirely useless - it showed me the problems that we happening with the py3 port, but yeah, a saner diff format would be nice :-)

Daniel

PATCH v5 7/14 qapi: ensure stable sort ordering when checking QAPI entities

In reply to Daniel P. Berrange

Some early python 3.x versions will have different default ordering when calling the 'values()' method on a dict, compared to python 2.x and later 3.x versions. Explicitly sort the items to get a stable ordering.

PATCH v5 8/14 qapi: force a UTF-8 locale for running Python

In reply to Daniel P. Berrange

Python2 did not validate locale correctness when reading input data, so would happily read UTF-8 data in non-UTF-8 locales. Python3 is strict so if you try to read UTF-8 data in the C locale, it will raise an error for any UTF-8 bytes that aren't representable in 7-bit ascii encoding. e.g.

UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 54: ordinal not in range(128) Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/tmp/qemu-test/src/scripts/qapi-commands.py", line 317, in <module>
schema = QAPISchema(input_file)
File "/tmp/qemu-test/src/scripts/qapi.py", line 1468, in __init__
parser = QAPISchemaParser(open(fname, 'r'))
File "/tmp/qemu-test/src/scripts/qapi.py", line 301, in __init__

File "/tmp/qemu-test/src/scripts/qapi.py", line 348, in _include
exprs_include = QAPISchemaParser(fobj, previously_included, info)
File "/tmp/qemu-test/src/scripts/qapi.py", line 271, in __init__
self.src = fp.read()
File "/usr/lib64/python3.5/encodings/ascii.py", line 26, in decode
return codecs.ascii_decode(input, self.errors)[0]

More background on this can be seen in

https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0538/

Many distros support a new C.UTF-8 locale that is like the C locale, but with UTF-8 instead of 7-bit ASCII. That is not entirely portable though. This patch thus sets the LANG to "C", but overrides LC_CTYPE to be en_US.UTF-8 locale. This gets us pretty close to C.UTF-8, but in a way that should be portable to everywhere QEMU builds.

This patch only forces UTF-8 for QAPI scripts, since that is the one showing the immediate error under Python3 with C locale, but potentially we ought to force this for all python scripts used in the build process.

PATCH v5 13/14 travis: improve python version test coverage

In reply to Daniel P. Berrange

Currently travis declares ancient python 2.4 is desired. Update that to 2.6 which is the oldest version any targetted distros still needs. If we just list a python 3 version at the top level this will double the number of travis jobs we run which is unreasonable.

So arbitrarily pick the clang test matrix entries to build with python 3.0 and 3.6, to extend coverage of python versions, without increasing job count or build time.

Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 13/14] travis: improve python version test coverage

Hi Daniel,

Quoted 8 lines · Daniel P. Berrange

Currently travis declares ancient python 2.4 is desired. Update that to 2.6 which is the oldest version any targetted distros still needs. If we just list a python 3 version at the top level this will double the number of travis jobs we run which is unreasonable.

So arbitrarily pick the clang test matrix entries to build with python 3.0 and 3.6, to extend coverage of python versions, without increasing job count or build time.

I'm seeing 3.0 builds taking the double time than 3.6 builds (and triggering the 50min timeout), any idea what could cause this huge difference?

Ouch, that's real bad. I don't have any bright ideas, other than fact that its a .0 release, so perhaps it was just really bad.

Wonder at which 3.x release it got "fast"

I'm sorry I didn't get to this when you posted it. However I'd like to know what the minimum build configuration we can get which will still ensure that the python is exercised? Would a TARGET_LIST="x86-64-softmmu" be good enough?

Most important stuff to exercise is the QAPI code generator and the trace tool backends, as those the main python pieces users will hit during build. So yes, it is sufficient to just have 1 target arch

PATCH v5 14/14 docker: change Fedora images to run with python3

In reply to Daniel P. Berrange

Fedora has switched to Python 3 by default, so it makes sense to use that for testing QEMU builds, so we get testing of Python 3 compatibility.

This is an update for my previously posted series:

v2: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-08/msg06528.html
v3: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-01/msg02978.html
v4: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-01/msg03150.html

This series enables some level of CI testing for py3 so that our CI jobs will get coverage of both py2 and py3 builds to avoid bitrot.

I'm queueing this on python-next. Thanks!

Quoted 105 lines

I did a test travis build with py 3.0 and py 3.6 and got success:

https://travis-ci.org/berrange/qemu/builds/328223261

The goal was to achieve the following

  ./configure --python=/usr/bin/python3
  make
  make check

This still requires passing python path to configure explicitly. A further improvement would be for configure to automatically detect a pythjon 3 binary and use it preferentially to python 2.

I have not attempted to fix/validate the block I/O tests. I would expect them to be broken, but easily fixable with the similar kind of scope changes as seen here. I felt it better to tackle that separately to avoid this initial series getting too large.

Although the Python 2 EOL date is 2020, we already have distros which are not shipping Python 2 by default (Fedora >= 26 has dropped Py2 from the default install). Any new releases of long life and/or enterprise distros may well not ship Python 2 given that it would go EOL long before the EOL of the distro itself. IOW QEMU does have a fairly pressing need to be able to support Python 3 for building.

A request for py3 is tracked here:

   https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1708462

If, rather than supporting py2+py3 in parallel, we wish to entirely drop py2 support, this series would not change significantly

- The "from __future__ import print_function" line can be removed from patch 1.
- The code in patches 2, 3, 4 to deal with changed module names for a few functions can be simpified to only try the py3 location
- The travis + docker jobs would be fully updated to install py3, or delete jobs which can't support py3

Given how little code is removed should we drop py2 support, I don't believe it is in our immediate interests to do this. It would create extra pain for consumers of QEMU, with little benefit to QEMU code maintainance. The key thing is ensuring our travis+docker jobs provide satisfactory automated test coverage for the variety of python versions in the distros we care about targetting.

NB, Patch 11 here is not related to python 3 work - it was just a temporary pre-requisite of pulling in the keycodemapdb update.

Changes since v4:

- Fix broken rebase which accidentally squashed first two patches together
- Unset LC_ALL, and set LANG + LC_CTYPE, instead of only LANG (Eric)

Changes since v3:

- Remove space before '(' in print() function calls (Phillippe)
- Force use of en_US.UTF-8 for QAPI code generation (Patchew)

Changes since v2:

- Pull in fix for keycodemapdb
- Enable testing with Travis
- Enable testing with Fedora Docker images
- Fix for sort ordering to fix 'make check-qapi-schema'
- Fix for signrom data

Daniel P. Berrange (13):
qapi: convert to use python print function instead of statement
qapi: use items()/values() intead of iteritems()/itervalues()
qapi: Use OrderedDict from standard library if available
qapi: adapt to moved location of StringIO module in py3
qapi: Adapt to moved location of 'maketrans' function in py3
qapi: remove '-q' arg to diff when comparing QAPI output
qapi: ensure stable sort ordering when checking QAPI entities
qapi: force a UTF-8 locale for running Python
scripts: ensure signrom treats data as bytes
configure: allow use of python 3
ui: update keycodemapdb to get py3 fixes
travis: improve python version test coverage
docker: change Fedora images to run with python3
