* bpo-36046: posix_spawn() doesn't support uid/gid (GH-16384)Victor Stinner2019-09-251-1/+4
| | | | | * subprocess.Popen now longer uses posix_spawn() if uid, gid or gids are set. * test_subprocess: add "nobody" and "nfsnobody" group names for test_group(). * test_subprocess: test_user() and test_group() are now also tested with close_fds=False.
* bpo-36046: Add user and group parameters to subprocess (GH-11950)Patrick McLean2019-09-121-5/+100
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | * subprocess: Add user, group and extra_groups paremeters to subprocess.Popen This adds a `user` parameter to the Popen constructor that will call setreuid() in the child before calling exec(). This allows processes running as root to safely drop privileges before running the subprocess without having to use a preexec_fn. This also adds a `group` parameter that will call setregid() in the child process before calling exec(). Finally an `extra_groups` parameter was added that will call setgroups() to set the supplimental groups.
* bpo-37424: Avoid a hang in subprocess.run timeout output capture (GH-14490)Gregory P. Smith2019-09-111-9/+27
| | | | | | | Fixes a possible hang when using a timeout on subprocess.run() while capturing output. If the child process spawned its own children or otherwise connected its stdout or stderr handles with another process, we could hang after the timeout was reached and our child was killed when attempting to read final output from the pipes.

* bpo-37380: subprocess: don't use _active on win (GH-14360)Ruslan Kuprieiev2019-06-281-16/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As noted by @eryksun in [1] and [2], using _cleanup and _active(in __del__) is not necessary on Windows, since: > Unlike Unix, a process in Windows doesn't have to be waited on by > its parent to avoid a zombie. Keeping the handle open will actually > create a zombie until the next _cleanup() call, which may be never > if Popen() isn't called again. This patch simply defines `subprocess._active` as `None`, for which we already have the proper logic in place in `subprocess.Popen.__del__`, that prevents it from trying to append the process to the `_active`. This patch also defines `subprocess._cleanup` as a noop for Windows.

| | | | | | Fix an unintended ValueError from :func:`subprocess.run` when checking for conflicting `input` and `stdin` or `capture_output` and `stdout` or `stderr` args when they were explicitly provided but with `None` values within a passed in `**kwargs` dict rather than as passed directly by name.

* bpo-35537: subprocess can use posix_spawn with pipes (GH-11575)Victor Stinner2019-01-231-28/+64
| | | | | | * subprocess.Popen can now also use os.posix_spawn() with pipes, but only if pipe file descriptors are greater than 2. * Fix Popen._posix_spawn(): set '_child_created' attribute to True. * Add Popen._close_pipe_fds() helper function to factorize the code.
* Revert "bpo-35537: subprocess can now use os.posix_spawnp (GH-11579)" (GH-11582)Victor Stinner2019-01-161-10/+3

* bpo-35537: subprocess can now use os.posix_spawnp (GH-11579)Victor Stinner2019-01-161-3/+10
| | | | The subprocess module can now use the os.posix_spawnp() function, if it is available, to locate the program in the PATH.
* bpo-35537: subprocess uses os.posix_spawn in some cases (GH-11452)Victor Stinner2019-01-151-0/+82
| | | | | | | | | | | | The subprocess module can now use the os.posix_spawn() function in some cases for better performance. Currently, it is only used on macOS and Linux (using glibc 2.24 or newer) if all these conditions are met: * executable path contains a directory * close_fds=False * preexec_fn, pass_fds, cwd, stdin, stdout, stderr and start_new_session parameters are not set Co-authored-by: Joannah Nanjekye <nanjekyejoannah@gmail.com>
* bpo-34812: subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags(): add isolated (GH-10675)Victor Stinner2018-11-231-2/+8
| | | | | | | | The "-I" command line option (run Python in isolated mode) is now also copied by the multiprocessing and distutils modules when spawning child processes. Previously, only -E and -s options (enabled by -I) were copied. subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() now copies the -I flag.
* bpo-32236: open() emits RuntimeWarning if buffering=1 for binary mode (GH-4842)Alexey Izbyshev2018-10-201-1/+10
| | | | | | | | | If buffering=1 is specified for open() in binary mode, it is silently treated as buffering=-1 (i.e., the default buffer size). Coupled with the fact that line buffering is always supported in Python 2, such behavior caused several issues (e.g., bpo-10344, bpo-21332). Warn that line buffering is not supported if open() is called with binary mode and buffering=1.
* closes bpo-32490: Fix filename duplication in subprocess exception message. ↵Zackery Spytz2018-09-111-2/+0
| | | | | (GH-9163) 8621bb5d93239316f97281826461b85072ff6db7 sets the filename in directly in the FileNotFoundError, so we may revert the earlier fix 5f780400572508a8179de6a6c13b58b7be417ef5.
* bpo-8110: Refactor platform detection in subprocess (GH-9053)Zachary Ware2018-09-101-55/+56

* bpo-34044: subprocess.Popen copies startupinfo (GH-8090)Victor Stinner2018-07-051-0/+17
| | | | | | | subprocess.Popen now copies the startupinfo argument to leave it unchanged: it will modify the copy, so that the same STARTUPINFO object can be used multiple times. Add subprocess.STARTUPINFO.copy() method.

| | | | Add "capture_output=True" option to subprocess.run, this is equivalent to setting stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE but is much more readable.
* bpo-25942: make subprocess more graceful on ^C (GH-5026)Gregory P. Smith2018-01-301-13/+72
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Do not allow receiving a SIGINT to cause the subprocess module to trigger an immediate SIGKILL of the child process. SIGINT is normally sent to all child processes by the OS at the same time already as was the established normal behavior in 2.7 and 3.2. This behavior change was introduced during the fix to https://bugs.python.org/issue12494 and is generally surprising to command line tool users who expect other tools launched in child processes to get their own SIGINT and do their own cleanup. In Python 3.3-3.6 subprocess.call and subprocess.run would immediately SIGKILL the child process upon receiving a SIGINT (which raises a KeyboardInterrupt). We now give the child a small amount of time to exit gracefully before resorting to a SIGKILL. This is also the case for subprocess.Popen.__exit__ which would previously block indefinitely waiting for the child to die. This was hidden from many users by virtue of subprocess.call and subprocess.run sending the signal immediately. Behavior change: subprocess.Popen.__exit__ will not block indefinitely when the exiting exception is a KeyboardInterrupt. This is done for user friendliness as people expect their ^C to actually happen. This could cause occasional orphaned Popen objects when not using `call` or `run` with a child process that hasn't exited. Refactoring involved: The Popen.wait method deals with the KeyboardInterrupt second chance, existing platform specific internals have been renamed to _wait(). Also fixes comment typos.
* bpo-19764: Implemented support for subprocess.Popen(close_fds=True) on ↵Segev Finer2017-12-181-19/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Windows (#1218) Even though Python marks any handles it opens as non-inheritable there is still a race when using `subprocess.Popen` since creating a process with redirected stdio requires temporarily creating inheritable handles. By implementing support for `subprocess.Popen(close_fds=True)` we fix this race. In order to implement this we use PROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_HANDLE_LIST which is available since Windows Vista. Which allows to pass an explicit list of handles to inherit when creating a process. This commit also adds `STARTUPINFO.lpAttributeList["handle_list"]` which can be used to control PROC_THREAD_ATTRIBUTE_HANDLE_LIST directly.
* bpo-29240: PEP 540: Add a new UTF-8 Mode (#855)Victor Stinner2017-12-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Add -X utf8 command line option, PYTHONUTF8 environment variable and a new sys.flags.utf8_mode flag. * If the LC_CTYPE locale is "C" at startup: enable automatically the UTF-8 mode. * Add _winapi.GetACP(). encodings._alias_mbcs() now calls _winapi.GetACP() to get the ANSI code page * locale.getpreferredencoding() now returns 'UTF-8' in the UTF-8 mode. As a side effect, open() now uses the UTF-8 encoding by default in this mode. * Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now use the UTF-8 encoding in the UTF-8 Mode. * Update subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle -X utf8 * Skip some tests relying on the current locale if the UTF-8 mode is enabled. * Add test_utf8mode.py. * _Py_DecodeUTF8_surrogateescape() gets a new optional parameter to return also the length (number of wide characters). * pymain_get_global_config() and pymain_set_global_config() now always copy flag values, rather than only copying if the new value is greater than the old value.
* bpo-32230: Set sys.warnoptions with -X dev (#4820)Victor Stinner2017-12-121-4/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rather than supporting dev mode directly in the warnings module, this instead adjusts the initialisation code to add an extra 'default' entry to sys.warnoptions when dev mode is enabled. This ensures that dev mode behaves *exactly* as if `-Wdefault` had been passed on the command line, including in the way it interacts with `sys.warnoptions`, and with other command line flags like `-bb`. Fix also bpo-20361: have -b & -bb options take precedence over any other warnings options. Patch written by Nick Coghlan, with minor modifications of Victor Stinner.
* bpo-32089: Fix warnings filters in dev mode (#4482)Victor Stinner2017-11-211-6/+2
| | | | | | | | | | The developer mode (-X dev) now creates all default warnings filters to order filters in the correct order to always show ResourceWarning and make BytesWarning depend on the -b option. Write a functional test to make sure that ResourceWarning is logged twice at the same location in the developer mode. Add a new 'dev_mode' field to _PyCoreConfig.
* bpo-32094: Update subprocess for -X dev (#4480)Victor Stinner2017-11-201-1/+22
| | | | | | | | Modify subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle -X dev option. Add also unit tests for test.support.args_from_interpreter_flags() and test.support.optim_args_from_interpreter_flags().
