[libgpiod][PATCH 00/14] bindings: python: cleanup and support Python 3.15

[Vincent Fazio]

This series prepares the Python bindings for release to support Python
3.15 by performing some minor clean ups, fixes to the bindings
themselves, and fixes to the script that generates the PyPI artifacts.

Patches 1-9 apply fixes for linter callouts based on the default ruleset
selected by ruff 0.17. There are no functional changes.

Patch 10 bumps the minimal version of ruff to lint the bindings,
simplifies the linter configuration in pyproject.toml, reformats any
non-compliant files, and applies linter noqa flags where necessary.

Patch 11 fixes some compile warnings that were noticed when building the
bindings for Python 3.15.

Patch 12 adds the trove classifier to advertise Python 3.15 support.

Patch 13 fixes a few small oversights re directory validation in the
script used to generate the PyPI artifacts.

Patch 14 bumps the dependencies in the PyPI artifact script to use newer
utilities that support generating wheels for Python 3.15.

Note: changelog entries are not included in case changes are accepted
partially.

[libgpiod][PATCH 03/14] bindings: python: _internal: collapse isinstance checks

[Vincent Fazio]

The two isinstance checks can be combined to a single call that uses a
tuple of types to check against.

When 8c9d5b4 was prototyped, it originally used a single call but it
was falsely micro-optimized to use two separate calls due to the single
call being slower.

The performance overhead was likely due to the tuple of types being
created on each iteration of the loop. Using a module variable with the
proper types avoids this overhead.

  $ python3 -m timeit -s "x = 42; T = (int, str)" "isinstance(x, T)"
  20000000 loops, best of 5: 13.9 nsec per loop
  $ python3 -m timeit -s "x = 42" "isinstance(x, int) or isinstance(x, str)"
  20000000 loops, best of 5: 14.6 nsec per loop
  $ python3 -m timeit -s "x = 42" "isinstance(x, (int, str))"
  10000000 loops, best of 5: 30 nsec per loop

[libgpiod][PATCH 04/14] bindings: python: setup: use a context manager to manage files

[Vincent Fazio]

Previously, a number of places in setup.py did not use a context manager
to manage the lifetime of the underlying file descriptor for reading and
writing the `libgpiod-version.txt` file.

While the previous method works, it relies on the returned file object
being assigned to a temporary Python object that has its refcount
decremented immediately after statement execution. This then relies on
the file object's finalizer to close the underlying handle which can
emit ResourceWarnings:

  /bindings/python/setup.py:193: ResourceWarning: unclosed file <_io.TextIOWrapper name='libgpiod-version.txt' mode='w' encoding='UTF-8'>
    open("libgpiod-version.txt", "w").write(LIBGPIOD_VERSION)

Now, we specifically use a context manager to close the file descriptor
when done to explicitly manage its lifetime.

[libgpiod][PATCH 10/14] bindings: python: bump ruff linter dependency

[Vincent Fazio]

Bump ruff to the recently released 0.17. Most of the important changes
are from 0.16, but there were no incompatibilities found during testing.

Of note is the expansion of the default ruleset [0] which is now
leveraged over the previously selected rules and simplifies the tool
configuration section significantly.

Two things are explicitly disabled as part of this migration:

  * Formating of Python blocks in markdown files is disabled [1]
  * The typing-extensions flag is set to false since the bindings do not
    depend on this package [2] so appropriate lint rules get disabled

As part of this change:

  * Unused error suppression flags were removed from
    examples/toggle_multiple_line_values.py
  * tests/tests_line_requests.py was reformatted to bring it in line
    with the rest of the bindings
  * The `readlines` call in setup.py has FURB129 [3] suppressed since it
    only affects builds (edge case) on 3.10 (now EOL). When the minimal
    version is bumped to 3.11, the entire block will go away.

[libgpiod][PATCH 11/14] bindings: python: include Python.h before other headers

[Vincent Fazio]

Per the Python C API reference manual [0], Python.h should be included
before other headers since it specifies some pre-processor definitions
that may differ from system defaults.

This was noticed when testing on CPython 3.15 [1] which emitted warnings
due to redefinitions of _XOPEN_SOURCE and _POSIX_C_SOURCE during builds
of the Python bindings.

Note: despite the manual stating that `PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN` should also be
defined, it is intentionally not included. The Python bindings do not
use the `#` format specifier when parsing any arguments so defining it

I typically try to keep headers sorted alphabetically. Can you leave a blank
line between Python.h and other headers to make it clear this was intentional?

[libgpiod][PATCH 13/14] bindings: python: fix directory validation in artifact script

[Vincent Fazio]

The PyPI artifact generation script had two issues with its directory
validation:

  * When validating the source directory, it erroneously tested whether
    output_dir was a directory instead of source_dir.
  * When validating the output directory, it only tested for writability
    (-w), which would allow an existing writable regular file to pass
    validation and only fail later when copying build artifacts.

Fix the source_dir check to inspect source_dir, and ensure output_dir
is verified to be a directory in addition to being writable.

Hi!

Thanks for the series. All looks good to me but I had some comments on two of
the patches. I queued patche 1-8 so no need to resend those and I backported
commit 5524758ab4c3 ("bindings: python: _internal: collapse isinstance checks")
as it was marked as a fix.

Thanks!
Bartosz

I'll reply/fixup those couple of patches.

Also, part of my inexperience here, but I probably used the Fixes
trailer incorrectly.

The previous behavior worked but was not in the format i had
originally tested in my early patches but which i apparently didn't
commit [0]

If Fixes should only be used for actual errant behavior and not for
fixing mistakes from earlier commits, I can change my usage

Yes, in general Fixes: indicates a commit fixes a bug and should be backported
to stable branches if the commit it "fixes" was already released. Should I
remove the commit from the python-2.5.x branch then?

Yes it probably makes sense to revert as the previous code was
functionally equivalent, just less optimized.

Sorry for the confusion.
