* libvirtio: lazy create the Event object in drain()Daniel P. Berrangé2022-06-081-5/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The drain method uses an asyncio.Event object to be notified when other coroutines have removed all registered callbacks. The Event object needs to be associated with the coroutine that the event loop is running with and currently this is achieved by passing in the 'loop' parameter. Unfortunately Python 3.10 has removed the 'loop' parameter and now the object is associated implicitly with the current thread's event loop. At the time the virEventAsyncIOImpl constructor is called, however, there is no guarantee that an event loop has been set for the thread. The explicitly passed in 'loop' parameter would handle this scenario. For portability with Python >= 3.10 we need to delay creation of the Event object until we have a guarantee that there is a loop associated with the current thread. This is achieved by lazily creating the Event object inside the 'drain' method, which is expected to be invoked from coroutine context and thus ensure a loop is associated. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

* libvirtaio: convert to using 'async' / 'await' syntaxChris Gunn2022-06-081-9/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The 'async' keyword is new in Python 3.5, as a way to declare that a method is a coroutine. This replaces the '@asyncio.coroutine' decorator that is deprecated since 3.8 and scheduled to be removed in 3.11 The 'await' keyword has to be used instead of 'yield' from any coroutines declared with 'async'.

* Revert "libvirtaio: Drop object(*args, **kwargs)"v6.7.0Philipp Hahn2020-08-281-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit f4be03b330125ab1e5a2bb10b4f12674aeff4691. While object.__init__() does not expect any additional arguments, this construct is required for Pythons multiple inheritance implementation. The original author Wojtek Porczyk <woju@invisiblethingslab.com> explained is this way: > I'm sorry I didn't notice this earlier, but the commit f4be03b3 dated > 2020-04-20 [0] is wrong. The super().__init__(*args, **kwargs) in > Callback.__init__ was there on purpose, because of how Python's inheritance in > new-style classes works. > > Let me explain this a bit, because it is not obvious. > > Suppose you had diamond inheritance like this: > > class A(object): pass > class B(A): pass > class C(A): pass > class D(B,C): pass > > And those classes needed a common function with varying arguments: > > class A(object): > def spam(self, a): print(f'A: {a}') > class B(A): > def spam(self, b): print(f'B: {b}') > class C(A): > def spam(self, c): print(f'C: {c}') > class D(B,C): > def spam(self, d): print(f'D: {d}') > > The way to call all parent's functions exactly once (as per MRO) and accept > all arguments and also forbid unknown arguments is to accept **kwargs > everywhere and pass them to super().spam(): > > class A: > def spam(self, a): > print(f'A: {a}') > class B(A): > def spam(self, b, **kwargs): > print(f'B: {b}') > super().spam(**kwargs) > class C(A): > def spam(self, c, **kwargs): > print(f'C: {c}') > super().spam(**kwargs) > class D(B, C): > def spam(self, d, **kwargs): > print(f'D: {d}') > super().spam(**kwargs) > > Let's run this: > > >>> B().spam(a=1, b=2) > B: 2 > A: 1 > >>> D().spam(a=1, b=2, c=3, d=4) > D: 4 > B: 2 > C: 3 > A: 1 > > You may notice that super() in B.spam refers to two different classes, either > A or C, depending on inheritance order in yet undefined classes (as of B's > definition). > > That's why the conclusion that super() in Callback.__init__ refers to object > is wrong. In this example, spam=__init__, A=object, B=Callback and C and D are > not yet written, but theoretically possible classes that could be written by > someone else. Why would they be needed, I don't know, but if someone writes > them, s/he would be out of options to invent new arguments to C.__init__. > > Note that super().__init__(*args, **kwargs) when super() refers to object > isn't harmful, and just ensures that args and kwargs are empty (i.e. no > unknown arguments were passed).

* libvirtaio: Fix return types of callbackPhilipp Hahn2020-07-271-6/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | libvirt defines the signature for the callback functions, e.g. the functions for remove() must return -1 on error and 0 on success. Raising an exception violates that contract. _remove_timeout() did not explicitly handle a double-remove and implicitly passed on the exception. update() expects no return value, so remove the pointless return to pass on None.

* Add asyncio event loop implementationWojtek Porczyk2017-04-041-0/+399
This is usable only on python >= 3.4 (or 3.3 with out-of-tree asyncio), however it should be harmless for anyone with older python versions. In simplest case, to have the callbacks queued on the default loop: >>> import libvirtaio >>> libvirtaio.virEventRegisterAsyncIOImpl() The function is not present on non-compatible platforms.
