Turns out fixing this only in importlib is not sufficient and we
need to backport CPython part of the fix too.
This patch is based on https://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/c16063765d3a
but because the code around is different there are some changes (C-strings
instead of Python objects etc.)
With this patch Tensorflow builds successfully on many-core machine.
This commit adds a Nix-specific module that recursively adds paths that
are on `NIX_PYTHONPATH` to `sys.path`. In order to process possible
`.pth` files `site.addsitedir` is used.
The paths listed in `PYTHONPATH` are added to `sys.path` afterwards, but
they will be added before the entries we add here and thus take
precedence.
The reason for adding support for this environment variable is that we
can set it in a wrapper without breaking support for `PYTHONPATH`.
This is python bug https://bugs.python.org/issue13146. Fixed since
python 3.4. It makes pyc creation atomic, preventing a race condition.
The patch has been rebased on our deterministic build patch.
It wasn't backported to python 2.7 because there was a complaint about
changed semantics. Since files are now created in a temporary directory
and then moved, symlinks will be overridden. See
https://bugs.python.org/issue17222.
That is an edge-case however. Ubuntu and debian have backported the fix
in 2013 already, making it mainstream enough for us to adopt.
Patching numpy.distutils used to be required for pythonPackages.cython
to build on darwin. It was later accidentally disabled during one of the
refactorings, but that did not break cython. This change reinstantiates
the patch. It still applies, so it should be low maintenance and it can
still be useful.
Originally introduced in 8970a9c and 1531b5e, these patches were lost in
efbe87f when the CPython version files were merged, likely due to
CPython 3.7 not needing them anymore. These patches should remain
in-tree until CPython 3.5 and 3.6 support is dropped completely.
Found with the diffoscope ( https://diffoscope.org/ ).
The upstream patch for distutils does not apply cleanly to Python
3.7.3's sources. (The patch applies cleanly to Python 3.7.2's sources,
but nixpkgs commit 0ddae82e6a upgraded
Python to 3.7.3.) Fix the patch to make python37 build on macOS.
The wrapper is not needed because the runpath is already set correctly,
and LD_LIBRARY_PATH was breaking child processes linked against
different libc versions.

These interpreters are prebuilt by upstream and patched using patchelf.
They are primarily added for testing purposes and development on the
non-prebuilt PyPy interpreters as it can speed up translation
significantly.
Drop `python.majorVersion`. For Python language version, use `python.pythonVersion`.
For implementation version, use `python.sourceVersion`.
Some expressions were broken. Those that were identified were fixed.

This changeset allows for cross-compilation of Python packages. Packages
built with buildPythonPackage are not allowed to refer to the build
machine. Executables that have shebangs will refer to the host.
Each time a new major/minor version of CPython was released, a new
expression would be written, typically copied from the previous release.
Often fixes are only made in the current/latest release. By merging the
expressions it's more likely that modifications end up in all versions,
as is likely intended.
This commit introduces one expression for Python 3, and another for 2.7.
These two may also be merged, but it will result in a lot of extra
conditionals making the expression harder to follow.
A common passthru is introduced for CPython and PyPy.
python 2.7: use common passthru
updateScript accepts a list, in which case, it will execute the head with the
tail as arguments. Switching to this style will allow us to get rid of the need
to create extra script doing just that.
All Python packages now have an updateScript. The script calls
`update-python-libraries` and passes it the position of the derivation
expression obtained using `meta.position`. This works fine in case a Nix
expression represents only a single derivation. If there are more in it,
`update-python-libraries` will fail.
Python 3.4 will receive it's final patch release in March 2019 and there won't
be any releases anymore after that, so also not during NixOS 2019.03.
Python 3.4 is not used anymore in Nixpkgs. In any case, migrating code from
3.4 to 3.4+ is trivial.
By default all warnings were printed. This occasionally resulted in
a lot of warnings leading to builds being killed.
This commit reduces the amount of warnings printed.
`python.buildEnv` would already wrap executables exporting `PYTHONHOME`.
With this change, it is possible to pass in additional arguments to the
underlying `makeWrapper`.
This also updates the bootstrap tool builder to LLVM 5, but not the ones
we actually use for bootstrap. I'll make that change in a subsequent commit
so as to provide traceable provenance of the bootstrap tools.

With meson 0.47.0 (or 0.47.1, or git)
things are very wrong re:rpath handling
resulting in at best missing libs but
even corrupt binaries :(.
When we run patchelf it masks the problem
by removing obviously busted paths.
Which is probably why this wasn't noticed immediately.
Unfortunately the binary already
has a long series of paths scribbled
in a space intended for a much smaller string;
in my testing it was something like
lengths were 67 with 300+ written to it.
I think we've reported the relevant issues upstream,
but unfortunately it appears our patches
are what introduces the overwrite/corruption
(by no longer being correct in what they assume)
This doesn't look so bad to fix but it's
not something I can spend more time on
at the moment.
--
Interestingly the overwritten string data
(because it is scribbled past the bounds)
remains in the binary and is why we're suddenly
seeing unexpected references in various builds
-- notably this is is the reason we're
seeing the "extra-utils" breakage
that entirely crippled NixOS on master
(and probably on staging before?).
Fixes#43650.
This reverts commit 305ac4dade.

Note that a bunch of non-python packages use this attribute already.
Some of those are clearly unaware of the fact that this attribute does
not exists in stdenv because they define it but don't to add it to
their `bulidInputs` :)
Also note that I use `buildInputs` here and only handle regular
builds because python and haskell builders do it this way and I'm not
sure how to properly handle the cross-compilation case.
upstream issue:
https://bugs.python.org/issue31940
There are two PR's proposed to fix this,
but both seem to be stalling waiting for review.
I previously used what appears to be the favored
of the two approaches[1] to fix this,
with plan of keeping it musl-only until PR was merged.
However, while writing up a commit message
explaining the problem and why it needed fixing...
I investigated a bit and found it increasingly
hard to justify anything other than ...
simply not using lchmod.
Here's what I found:
* lchmod is non-POSIX, seems BSD-only these days
* Functionality of lchmod isn't supported on Linux
* best scenario on Linux would be an error
* POSIX does provide lchmod-esque functionality
with fchmodat(), which AFAICT is generally preferred.
* Python intentionally overlooks fchmodat()[2]
electing instead to use lchmod() behavior
as a proxy for whether fchmodat() "works".
I'm not sure I follow their reasoning...
* both glibc and musl provide lchmod impls:
* glibc returns ENOSYS "not implemented"
* musl implements lchmod with fchmodat(),
and so returns EOPNOTSUPP "op not supported"
* Python doesn't expect EOPNOTSUPP from lchmod,
since it's not valid on BSD's lchmod.
* "configure" doesn't actually check lchmod usefully,
instead checks for glibc preprocessor defines
to indicate if the function is just a stub[3];
somewhat fittingly, if the magic macros are defined
then the next line of the C source is "choke me",
causing the compiler to trip, fall, and point
a finger at whatever is near where it ends up.
(somewhat amusing, but AFAIK effective way to get an error :P)
I'm leaving out links to threads on mailing lists and such,
but for now I hope I've convinced you
(or to those reading commit history: explained my reasons)
that this is a bit of a mess[4].
And so instead of making a big mess messier,
and with hopes of never thinking about this again,
I propose we simply tell Python "don't use lchmod" on Linux.

Documents the reason why it's needed and also prevents the
ensureNewerSourcesHook call being evaluated again and again for every
single Python package.
