Describe the bug

Currently python-flint has a CI job that tests against Cython master branch to measure coverage (gh-6341). That job was passing but has recently (today?) started failing.

Code to reproduce the behaviour:

I don't have a simple reproducer but here is the error message:

Note that I am editing this source file so this might not be triggered by a very new change in Cython but this is only seen with Cython master branch and not with latest released Cython

Expected behaviour

Thanks for the quick report. The failing lines are (apparently) here:
https://github.com/flintlib/python-flint/blob/53a1c3f62161d6137bcbcdbda02ee4bca411004a/src/flint/types/nmod.pyx#L38-L39
The only special thing about them is the (converted) f-string, which injects optimised syntax tree nodes. I suspect that this might make a difference. However, I tried running the above cython command on the file and it succeeded on my side (latest master). I noticed that the setup.py is different from this (meson?) build command line in that it passes binding=False, so I tried that as well but it also succeeded. Thus, I cannot currently reproduce this failure locally.

That said, I pushed a rewrite of the position building code that should make it more robust. Could you try if that works for you?

I noticed that the setup.py is different from this (meson?) build command line in that it passes binding=False, so I tried that as well but it also succeeded.

The meson build is what we use now. The setup.py is just there for compatibility purposes in case someone happens to be using it. After we have had a full release with the meson build if there seem to be no problems then we will remove it.

I'm not sure why setup.py sets binding=False and I don't think that it was intentional that we changed that in the meson build. Apparently I set binding=False in flintlib/python-flint#35 which was about Cython 3's change to __radd__ etc methods (c_api_binop_methods). The comments in the PR indicate that at the time I was having issues with different versions of cython so it may have just been something needed for some particular prerelease or it may have just been something that I decided was a good idea...

Does binding=True affect performance in any way when calling methods from cython code?

Thus, I cannot currently reproduce this failure locally.

I have just reproduced it locally using the commit cython 26fd2ba (current master^ which precedes your suggested commit above) but only in python-flint's coverage-enabled build with bin/coverage.sh:

https://github.com/flintlib/python-flint/blob/53a1c3f62161d6137bcbcdbda02ee4bca411004a/bin/coverage.sh#L18
https://github.com/flintlib/python-flint/blob/53a1c3f62161d6137bcbcdbda02ee4bca411004a/meson.build#L62-L65

I have just tried ccc54f9 (current master, i.e. your suggested commit) and I can still reproduce it so that change hasn't fixed it:

$ meson setup --wipe build --pkg-config-path=.local/lib/pkgconfig -Dadd_flint_rpath=true -Dbuildtype=debug -Dcoverage=true
$ bin/coverage.sh 
Directory already configured.

Just run your build command (e.g. ninja) and Meson will regenerate as necessary.
Run "meson setup --reconfigure to force Meson to regenerate.

If build failures persist, run "meson setup --wipe" to rebuild from scratch
using the same options as passed when configuring the build.
$ meson compile -C build

However I only see that failure in my PR branch and not with python-flint master: flintlib/python-flint#179.

So I guess these are the lines you wanted to point to:

I'm not sure why setup.py sets binding=False

Now I remember it was because binding=True made it 2-3x slower to get a coverage enabled build: #4425 (comment)

That seems less of an issue now that we have meson with fast incremental parallel rebuilds.
