* For PyPy only, re-enable old behavior (likely to mask bugs), to avoid segfault with unknown root cause.
Change prompted by https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/issues/4075
* Undo the change in tests/test_exceptions.py
I turns out (I forgot) that PyPy segfaults in `test_flaky_exception_failure_point_init` already before the `MISMATCH` code path is reached:

```
* Add test_pypy_oserror_normalization
* Disable new `PYPY_VERSION` `#if`, to verify that the new test actually fails.
* Restore PYPY_VERSION workaround and update comment to reflect what was learned.
* [ci skip] Fix trivial oversight in comment.
* error_already_set::what() is now constructed lazily
Prior to this commit throwing error_already_set was expensive due to the
eager construction of the error string (which required traversing the
Python stack). See #1853 for more context and an alternative take on the
issue.
Note that error_already_set no longer inherits from std::runtime_error
because the latter has no default constructor.
* Do not attempt to normalize if no exception occurred
This is not supported on PyPy-2.7 5.8.0.
* Extract exception name via tp_name
This is faster than dynamically looking up __name__ via GetAttrString.
Note though that the runtime of the code throwing an error_already_set
will be dominated by stack unwinding so the improvement will not be
noticeable.
Before:
396 ns ± 0.913 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000000 loops each)
After:
277 ns ± 0.549 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1000000 loops each)
Benchmark:
const std::string foo() {
PyErr_SetString(PyExc_KeyError, "");
const std::string &s = py::detail::error_string();
PyErr_Clear();
return s;
}
PYBIND11_MODULE(foo, m) {
m.def("foo", &::foo);
}
* Reverted error_already_set to subclass std::runtime_error
* Revert "Extract exception name via tp_name"
The implementation of __name__ is slightly more complex than that.
It handles the module name prefix, and heap-allocated types. We could
port it to pybind11 later on but for now it seems like an overkill.
This reverts commit f1435c7e6b.
* Cosmit following @YannickJadoul's comments
Note that detail::error_string() no longer calls PyException_SetTraceback
as it is unncessary for pretty-printing the exception.
* Fixed PyPy build
* Moved normalization to error_already_set ctor
* Fix merge bugs
* Fix more merge errors
* Improve formatting
* Improve error message in rare case
* Revert back if statements
* Fix clang-tidy
* Try removing mutable

* See if we still need debug
* Remove unnecessary mutable
* Report "FATAL failure building pybind11::error_already_set error_string" and terminate process.
* Try specifying noexcept again
* Try explicit ctor
* default ctor is noexcept too
* Apply reviewer suggestions, simplify code, and make helper method private
* Remove unnecessary include
* Clang-Tidy fix
* detail::obj_class_name(), fprintf with [STDERR], [STDOUT] tags, polish comments
* consistently check m_lazy_what.empty() also in production builds
* Make a comment slightly less ambiguous.
* Bug fix: Remove `what();` from `restore()`.
It sure would need to be guarded by `if (m_type)`, otherwise `what()` fails and masks that no error was set (see update unit test). But since `error_already_set` is copyable, there is no point in releasing m_type, m_value, m_trace, therefore we can just as well avoid the runtime overhead of force-building `m_lazy_what`, it may never be used.
* Replace extremely opaque (unhelpful) error message with a truthful reflection of what we know.
* Fix clang-tidy error [performance-move-constructor-init].
* Make expected error message less specific.
* Various changes.
* bug fix: error_string(PyObject **, ...)
* Putting back the two eager PyErr_NormalizeException() calls.
* Change error_already_set() to call pybind11_fail() if the Python error indicator not set. The net result is that a std::runtime_error is thrown instead of error_already_set, but all tests pass as is.
* Remove mutable (fixes oversight in the previous commit).
* Normalize the exception only locally in error_string(). Python 3.6 & 3.7 test failures expected. This is meant for benchmarking, to determine if it is worth the trouble looking into the failures.
* clang-tidy: use auto
* Use `gil_scoped_acquire_local` in `error_already_set` destructor. See long comment.
* For Python < 3.8: `PyErr_NormalizeException` before `PyErr_WriteUnraisable`
* Go back to replacing the held Python exception with then normalized exception, if & when needed. Consistently document the side-effect.
* Slightly rewording comment. (There were also other failures.)
* Add 1-line comment for obj_class_name()
* Benchmark code, with results in this commit message.

* Changing call_repetitions_target_elapsed_secs to 0.1 for regular unit testing.
* Adding in `recursion_depth`
* Optimized ctor
* Fix silly bug in recurse_first_then_call()
* Add tests that have equivalent PyErr_Fetch(), PyErr_Restore() but no try-catch.
* Add call_error_string to tests. Sample only recursion_depth 0, 100.
* Show lazy-what speed-up in percent.
* Include real_work in benchmarks.
* Replace all PyErr_SetString() with generate_python_exception_with_traceback()
* Better organization of test loops.
* Add test_error_already_set_copy_move
* Fix bug in newly added test (discovered by clang-tidy): actually use move ctor
* MSVC detects the unreachable return
* change test_perf_error_already_set.py back to quick mode
* Inherit from std::exception (instead of std::runtime_error, which does not make sense anymore with the lazy what)
* Special handling under Windows.
* print with leading newline
* Removing test_perf_error_already_set (copies are under 7765113fbb).
* Avoid gil and scope overhead if there is nothing to release.
* Restore default move ctor. "member function" instead of "function" (note that "method" is Python terminology).
* Delete error_already_set copy ctor.
* Make restore() non-const again to resolve clang-tidy failure (still experimenting).
* Bring back error_already_set copy ctor, to see if that resolves the 4 MSVC test failures.
* Add noexcept to error_already_set copy & move ctors (as suggested by @skylion007 IIUC).
* Trying one-by-one noexcept copy ctor for old compilers.
* Add back test covering copy ctor. Add another simple test that exercises the copy ctor.
* Exclude more older compilers from using the noexcept = default ctors. (The tests in the previous commit exposed that those are broken.)
* Factor out & reuse gil_scoped_acquire_local as gil_scoped_acquire_simple
* Guard gil_scoped_acquire_simple by _Py_IsFinalizing() check.
* what() GIL safety
* clang-tidy & Python 3.6 fixes
* Use `gil_scoped_acquire` in dtor, copy ctor, `what()`. Remove `_Py_IsFinalizing()` checks (they are racy: https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/28525).
* Remove error_scope from copy ctor.
* Add `error_scope` to `get_internals()`, to cover the situation that `get_internals()` is called from the `error_already_set` dtor while a new Python error is in flight already. Also backing out `gil_scoped_acquire_simple` change.
* Add `FlakyException` tests with failure triggers in `__init__` and `__str__`
THIS IS STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS. This commit is only an important resting point.
This commit is a first attempt at addressing the observation that `PyErr_NormalizeException()` completely replaces the original exception if `__init__` fails. This can be very confusing even in small applications, and extremely confusing in large ones.
* Tweaks to resolve Py 3.6 and PyPy CI failures.
* Normalize Python exception immediately in error_already_set ctor.
For background see: https://github.com/pybind/pybind11/pull/1895#issuecomment-1135304081
* Fix oversights based on CI failures (copy & move ctor initialization).
* Move @pytest.mark.xfail("env.PYPY") after @pytest.mark.parametrize(...)
* Use @pytest.mark.skipif (xfail does not work for segfaults, of course).
* Remove unused obj_class_name_or() function (it was added only under this PR).
* Remove already obsolete C++ comments and code that were added only under this PR.
* Slightly better (newly added) comments.
* Factor out detail::error_fetch_and_normalize. Preparation for producing identical results from error_already_set::what() and detail::error_string(). Note that this is a very conservative refactoring. It would be much better to first move detail::error_string into detail/error_string.h
* Copy most of error_string() code to new error_fetch_and_normalize::complete_lazy_error_string()
* Remove all error_string() code from detail/type_caster_base.h. Note that this commit includes a subtle bug fix: previously error_string() restored the Python error, which will upset pybind11_fail(). This never was a problem in practice because the two PyType_Ready() calls in detail/class.h do not usually fail.
* Return const std::string& instead of const char * and move error_string() to pytypes.h
* Remove gil_scope_acquire from error_fetch_and_normalize, add back to error_already_set
* Better handling of FlakyException __str__ failure.
* Move error_fetch_and_normalize::complete_lazy_error_string() implementation from pybind11.h to pytypes.h
* Add error_fetch_and_normalize::release_py_object_references() and use from error_already_set dtor.
* Use shared_ptr for m_fetched_error => 1. non-racy, copy ctor that does not need the GIL; 2. enables guard against duplicate restore() calls.
* Add comments.
* Trivial renaming of a newly introduced member function.
* Workaround for PyPy
* Bug fix (oversight). Only valgrind got this one.
* Use shared_ptr custom deleter for m_fetched_error in error_already_set. This enables removing the dtor, copy ctor, move ctor completely.
* Further small simplification. With the GIL held, simply deleting the raw_ptr takes care of everything.
* IWYU cleanup

iwyu version: include-what-you-use 0.17 based on Debian clang version 13.0.1-3+build2
```
Command used:
```
iwyu -c -std=c++17 -DPYBIND11_TEST_BOOST -Iinclude/pybind11 -I/usr/include/python3.9 -I/usr/include/eigen3 include/pybind11/pytypes.cpp
```
pytypes.cpp is a temporary file: `#include "pytypes.h"`
The raw output is very long and noisy.
I decided to use `#include <cstddef>` instead of `#include <cstdio>` for `std::size_t` (iwyu sticks to the manual choice).
I ignored all iwyu suggestions that are indirectly covered by `#include <Python.h>`.
I manually verified that all added includes are actually needed.

* Added tests on error_already_set::matches fix for exception base classes
The builtin exception handler currently doesn't work across modules
under clang/libc++ for builtin pybind exceptions like
`pybind11::error_already_set` or `pybind11::stop_iteration`: under
RTLD_LOCAL module loading clang considers each module's exception
classes distinct types. This then means that the base exception
translator fails to catch the exceptions and the fall through to the
generic `std::exception` handler, which completely breaks things like
`stop_iteration`: only the `stop_iteration` of the first module loaded
actually works properly; later modules raise a RuntimeError with no
message when trying to invoke their iterators.
For example, two modules defined like this exhibit the behaviour under
clang++/libc++:
z1.cpp:
#include <pybind11/pybind11.h>
#include <pybind11/stl_bind.h>
namespace py = pybind11;
PYBIND11_MODULE(z1, m) {
py::bind_vector<std::vector<long>>(m, "IntVector");
}
z2.cpp:
#include <pybind11/pybind11.h>
#include <pybind11/stl_bind.h>
namespace py = pybind11;
PYBIND11_MODULE(z2, m) {
py::bind_vector<std::vector<double>>(m, "FloatVector");
}
Python:
import z1, z2
for i in z2.FloatVector():
pass
results in:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "zs.py", line 2, in <module>
for i in z2.FloatVector():
RuntimeError
This commit fixes the issue by adding a new exception translator each
time the internals pointer is initialized from python builtins: this
generally means the internals data was initialized by some other
module. (The extra translator(s) are skipped under libstdc++).
`error_already_set` is more complicated than it needs to be, partly
because it manages reference counts itself rather than using
`py::object`, and partly because it tries to do more exception clearing
than is needed. This commit greatly simplifies it, and fixes#927.
Using `py::object` instead of `PyObject *` means we can rely on
implicit copy/move constructors.
The current logic did both a `PyErr_Clear` on deletion *and* a
`PyErr_Fetch` on creation. I can't see how the `PyErr_Clear` on
deletion is ever useful: the `Fetch` on creation itself clears the
error, so the only way doing a `PyErr_Clear` on deletion could do
anything if is some *other* exception was raised while the
`error_already_set` object was alive--but in that case, clearing some
other exception seems wrong. (Code that is worried about an exception
handler raising another exception would already catch a second
`error_already_set` from exception code).
The destructor itself called `clear()`, but `clear()` was a little bit
more paranoid that needed: it called `restore()` to restore the
currently captured error, but then immediately cleared it, using the
`PyErr_Restore` to release the references. That's unnecessary: it's
valid for us to release the references manually. This updates the code
to simply release the references on the three objects (preserving the
gil acquire).
`clear()`, however, also had the side effect of clearing the current
error, even if the current `error_already_set` didn't have a current
error (e.g. because of a previous `restore()` or `clear()` call). I
don't really see how clearing the error here can ever actually be
useful: the only way the current error could be set is if you called
`restore()` (in which case the current stored error-related members have
already been released), or if some *other* code raised the error, in
which case `clear()` on *this* object is clearing an error for which it
shouldn't be responsible.
Neither of those seem like intentional or desirable features, and
manually requesting deletion of the stored references similarly seems
pointless, so I've just made `clear()` an empty method and marked it
deprecated.
This also fixes a minor potential issue with the destruction: it is
technically possible for `value` to be null (though this seems likely to
be rare in practice); this updates the check to look at `type` which
will always be non-null for a `Fetch`ed exception.
This also adds error_already_set round-trip throw tests to the test
suite.
This commit adds `error_already_set::matches()` convenience method to
check if the exception trapped by `error_already_set` matches a given
Python exception type. This will address #700 by providing a less
verbose way to check exceptions.
A flake8 configuration is included in setup.cfg and the checks are
executed automatically on Travis:
* Ensures a consistent PEP8 code style
* Does basic linting to prevent possible bugs
The custom exception handling added in PR #273 is robust, but is overly
complex for declaring the most common simple C++ -> Python exception
mapping that needs only to copy `what()`. This add a simpler
`py::register_exception<CppExp>(module, "PyExp");` function that greatly
simplifies the common basic case of translation of a simple CppException
into a simple PythonException, while not removing the more advanced
capabilities of defining custom exception handlers.
This clears the Python error at the error_already_set throw site, thus
allowing Python calls to be made in destructors which are triggered by
the exception. This is preferable to the alternative, which would be
guarding every Python API call with an error_scope.
This effectively flips the behavior of error_already_set. Previously,
it was assumed that the error stays in Python, so handling the exception
in C++ would require explicitly calling PyErr_Clear(), but nothing was
needed to propagate the error to Python. With this change, handling the
error in C++ does not require a PyErr_Clear() call, but propagating the
error to Python requires an explicit error_already_set::restore().
The change does not break old code which explicitly calls PyErr_Clear()
for cleanup, which should be the majority of user code. The need for an
explicit restore() call does break old code, but this should be mostly
confined to the library and not user code.
Use simple asserts and pytest's powerful introspection to make testing
simpler. This merges the old .py/.ref file pairs into simple .py files
where the expected values are right next to the code being tested.
This commit does not touch the C++ part of the code and replicates the
Python tests exactly like the old .ref-file-based approach.
