Tools should _not_ catch their own SIGPIPE #59037

UNIX03 conformance requires utilities to flush stdout before exiting and raise an error if writing fails. Flushing already happens on a call to exit and thus automatically on a return from main. Write failure is then detected by LLVM's default SIGPIPE handler. The handler already exits with a non-zero code, but conformance additionally requires an error message.

This appears to be the differential review but I am not sure the author is on GitHub: https://reviews.llvm.org/D124607 cc @jh7370 |

What a mess. @TNorthover committed this without retaining authorship details... (make sure to use cc @isanbard @bwendling @dmcyk See also #25723 where we had these annoying warnings with 51b557a landed in clang-15; cc @tstellar in case we want to consider a revert for a clang 15.0.6 release. |

There's at least one situation in |

I don't know anything about Unix 03 conformance really - I approved on the basis that the referenced commit just prints a message to the error stream, and on the claim by the author that this is required. A slight correction on words being used in this ticket though: strictly, LLVM already had a SIGPIPE handler before this patch, so technically, this patch didn't change the fact that LLVM tools "handle" SIGPIPEs (what they do as part of that handling is another matter of course). I took a look through the Unix 03 standadds docs (as best I could - they aren't easy to navigate), and I couldn't find a reference to the thing being talked about in the original patch description. I'd therefore support this being reverted, if the original author and/or committer don't come back with the full standard citation. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a misinterpretation of the standards somewhere. |
|
Thanks for bringing this up, the error message is indeed redundant and I'm sorry this is causing problems. We specifically care about llvm-nm in this case, so I'm going to make a patch to handle this requirement only there too. I can remove the error message from the signal handler in the same patch, or if you want to already revert the change that's fine for me too, I have no commit access to do that myself. Like @jh7370 already noticed, the patch only added the error message though, the exit code was already there and I think it might be correct, the code (74) comes from sysexits(3). |
|
@bwendling pushed a revert for review already. It would probably be easiest to go with a revert and new patch so that the revert can be cherry-picked to LLVM 15.0.6 easily, unless people think the new patch deserves to go too (perhaps that is up to @tstellar and co.). |
|
I'll submit the revert patch and you can go with the new patch. I'll re-word the commit message to include the new information. Thank you! |

This patch is spamming compiles with unhelpful and confusing messages. E.g. the Linux kernel uses "grep -q" in several places. It's meant to quit with a return code of zero when the first match is found. This can cause a SIGPIPE signal, but that's expected, and there's no way to turn this error message off to avoid spurious error messages. UNIX03 apparently doesn't require printing an error message on SIGPIPE, but specifically when there's an error on the stdout stream in a normal program flow, e.g. when SIGPIPE trap is disabled. A separate patch is planned to address the specific case we care most about (involving llvm-nm). This reverts commit b89bcef.

In the follow-up of commit fb3041d ("kbuild: fix SIGPIPE error message for AR=gcc-ar and AR=llvm-ar"), Kees Cook pointed out that tools should _not_ catch their own SIGPIPEs [1] [2]. Based on his feedback, LLVM was fixed [3]. However, Python's default behavior is to show noisy bracktrace when SIGPIPE is sent. So, scripts written in Python are basically in the same situation as the buggy llvm tools. Example: $ make -s allnoconfig $ make -s allmodconfig $ scripts/diffconfig .config.old .config | head -n1 -ALIX n Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/masahiro/linux/scripts/diffconfig", line 132, in <module> main() File "/home/masahiro/linux/scripts/diffconfig", line 130, in main print_config("+", config, None, b[config]) File "/home/masahiro/linux/scripts/diffconfig", line 64, in print_config print("+%s %s" % (config, new_value)) BrokenPipeError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe Python documentatin [4] notes how to make scripts die immediately and silently: """ Piping output of your program to tools like head(1) will cause a SIGPIPE signal to be sent to your process when the receiver of its standard output closes early. This results in an exception like BrokenPipeError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe. To handle this case, wrap your entry point to catch this exception as follows: import os import sys def main(): try: # simulate large output (your code replaces this loop) for x in range(10000): print("y") # flush output here to force SIGPIPE to be triggered # while inside this try block. sys.stdout.flush() except BrokenPipeError: # Python flushes standard streams on exit; redirect remaining output # to devnull to avoid another BrokenPipeError at shutdown devnull = os.open(os.devnull, os.O_WRONLY) os.dup2(devnull, sys.stdout.fileno()) sys.exit(1) # Python exits with error code 1 on EPIPE if __name__ == '__main__': main() Do not set SIGPIPE’s disposition to SIG_DFL in order to avoid BrokenPipeError.

[ Upstream commit 87c7ee67deb7fce9951a5f9d80641138694aad17 ]
In the follow-up of commit fb3041d61f68 ("kbuild: fix SIGPIPE error
message for AR=gcc-ar and AR=llvm-ar"), Kees Cook pointed out that
tools should _not_ catch their own SIGPIPEs [1] [2].
Based on his feedback, LLVM was fixed [3].
However, Python's default behavior is to show noisy bracktrace when
SIGPIPE is sent. So, scripts written in Python are basically in the
same situation as the buggy llvm tools.
Example:
$ make -s allnoconfig
$ make -s allmodconfig
$ scripts/diffconfig .config.old .config | head -n1
-ALIX n
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/masahiro/linux/scripts/diffconfig", line 132, in <module>
main()
File "/home/masahiro/linux/scripts/diffconfig", line 130, in main
print_config("+", config, None, b[config])
File "/home/masahiro/linux/scripts/diffconfig", line 64, in print_config
print("+%s %s" % (config, new_value))
BrokenPipeError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe
Python documentation [4] notes how to make scripts die immediately and
silently:
"""
Piping output of your program to tools like head(1) will cause a
SIGPIPE signal to be sent to your process when the receiver of its
standard output closes early. This results in an exception like
BrokenPipeError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe. To handle this case,
wrap your entry point to catch this exception as follows:
import os

def main():
try:
# simulate large output (your code replaces this loop)
for x in range(10000):

# flush output here to force SIGPIPE to be triggered

os.dup2(devnull, sys.stdout.fileno())
sys.exit(1) # Python exits with error code 1 on EPIPE
if __name__ == '__main__':

Do not set SIGPIPE’s disposition to SIG_DFL in order to avoid
BrokenPipeError. Doing that would cause your program to exit
unexpectedly whenever any socket connection is interrupted while
your program is still writing to it.

Since commit 51b557a, tools are catching their own
SIGPIPEsignals. This is wrong: the caller needs to be the one handling these. This is the long-standing behavior for *nix utilities. For example:No error generated, but
seqis being killed bySIGPIPE:It is the caller (the shell, here) that is filtering out
SIGPIPE. The tool itself should not catch the signal, and caller are expecting tools to be killed early bySIGPIPEso that needless CPU resources (and time) are not wasted. (For example, when usinghead, orgrep -mN, etc.)The
SIGPIPEhandler should be left explicitly untouched, i.e. set toSIG_DFL. If the error is wanted, callers (shells) can be configured to report it:The LLVM tool behavior is incorrect:
And we can see that the signal is being caught internally:
