git checkout -b pr104
git am -3 https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/104

URLs:

  • Add ?w=1 in a pull request to ignore whitespace changes
  • Add .patch to a pull request to get the change as an unified diff
  • In a message, <details> ... </details> creates a drop-down

vim for developer

In these examples, I’m using Mercurial with the command “hg”. To use git, just replace “hg” with “git”. I prefer the graphical editor gvim. To use the console version, replace “gvim” with “vim”.

View differences:

hg diff | gvim -

Shortcuts:

  • a/asyncio/events.py: to open the file, delete a\, put the cursor on the file type, type vs for a vertial split, and type gf (goto file) to open the file
  • %bd: close all buffers

Python:

  • [[, ]]: jump to previous/next of the class or fnuction

Fedora

Search a package without updating yum cache:

yum search -C pattern

Which package provides the program route?

$ rpm -qf $(which route)
net-tools-2.0-0.15.20131119git.fc20.x86_64

Or if the package is not installed:

$ yum whatprovides route
...
net-tools-2.0-0.15.20131119git.fc20.x86_64 : Basic networking tools
...
Nom de fichier: /usr/sbin/route

Listing the files in a package:

rpm -ql mongodb-server

Install dependencies to build the package digikam:

yum-builddep digikam

Rebuild a Fedora package

Rebuild a package: Fedora Source RPM.

If you get a .src.rpm package, you can rebuild it with:

rpmbuild --rebuild wrk-3.1.0-1.fc21.src.rpm

Unpack RPM

Unpack file.rpm in a new dir/ subdirectory:

mkdir dir
cp file.rpm dir/
cd dir
rpm2cpio file.rpm | cpio -idmv

Git

Remove latest commit

git reset --hard HEAD~1

Remote branches

  • List remote branches: git branch -r

  • Create a new branch fix_1369426_icehouse tracking the remote branch origin/stable/icehouse:

    git branch --track fix_1369426_icehouse origin/stable/icehouse

  • (Track and) Pull a remote branch:

    git branch --track NAME_REMOTE_BRANCH
git fetch --all   # or: git pull --all

Send email

First install git send-email. On Fedora:

yum install -y git-email

Generate a .patch file for a single commit:

git format-patch origin/master

Generate a patch serie for multiple commits:

git format-patch origin/master --cover-letter

Now modify 0000-cover-letter.patch: replace *** BLURB HERE ***. By default, patches create a thread on a mailing list: [PATCH 0/n] is the top message, [PATCH 1/n], [PATCH 2/n], etc. are replied to the top message. See Message-Id and In-Reply-To headers in emails.

To generate a version 2 of a patch (use [PATCH v2] subject prefix instead of [PATCH]):

git format-patch origin/master --subject-prefix 'PATCH v2'

Send patches:

git send-email --to=EMAIL --suppress-cc=all *.patch

For your first try, just send emails to yourself ;-)

Shell script

  • bash8: A pep8 equivalent for bash scripts
  • checkbashisms: static analysis tool for shell scripts. It looks for particular patterns which indicate a script might be relying on /bin/sh being bash.
  • shellcheck: static analysis and linting tool for sh/bash scripts
  • $'...' interprets escape sequences (like \n) in '...'

Example:

haypo@selma$ echo $'a\rb'|hexdump -C
00000000  61 0d 62 0a                                       |a.b.|
00000004

Mercurial

bisect with a command

Shell script cmd.sh:

set -e -x
make
./python script.py

where script.py is the script to reproduce the bug.

Cleanup everything:

hg bisect --reset
hg update -C

We know that the most recent version is bad (./cmd fails):

./cmd.sh
# cmd.sh failed
hg bisect -b

Find a good revision using a date:

hg up -r "branch(default) and date('May 2015')"
./cmd.sh
# it's still failing, take an older date
hg up -r "branch(default) and date('Jan 2015')"
./cmd.sh
# iterate until the test pass
(...)
hg bisect -g

Ok, we have a good and a bad revision, and a script to automate the bisection:

hg bisect --command ./cmd.sh
# enjoy watching your computer working for you

cannot edit immutable changeset: xxx

You can force the phase of a changeset back to draft like so:

hg phase -d -f <changeset_id>

Only do that for private changes!

Find tags containing a specific changeset

Let’s say that you want to check which versions contains the _FUTURE_CLASSES variable:

$ grep '_FUTURE_CLASSES =' trollius/*.py
trollius/futures.py:    _FUTURE_CLASSES = (Future, events.asyncio.Future)
trollius/futures.py:    _FUTURE_CLASSES = Future

$ hg blame trollius/futures.py|grep '_FUTURE_CLASSES ='
1712:     _FUTURE_CLASSES = (Future, events.asyncio.Future)
1688:     _FUTURE_CLASSES = Future

$ hg log -r 1688 --template '{date|isodate}\n'
2014-07-25 10:05 +0200

Ok, so the _FUTURE_CLASSES was added by the changeset 1688 which was made the 2014-07-25. We pick the oldest changeset, 1712 was probably a fix.

Find the tags which contains the changeset 1688:

$ hg log -r "reverse(descendants(1688)) and tag()" --template "{tags}\t{rev}:{node|short}\n"
trollius-1.0.2  1767:41ac07cd2d03
trollius-1.0.1  1738:83e574a42e16

$ hg log -r trollius-1.0.1 --template '{date|isodate}\n'
2014-07-30 17:45 +0200
$ hg log -r trollius-1.0.2 --template '{date|isodate}\n'
2014-10-02 16:47 +0200

The _FUTURE_CLASSES was introduced in trollius-1.0.1 which was released the 2014-07-30. The following release trollius-1.0.2 (2014-10-02) also contains it, which is expected since trollius-1.0.2 is based on trollius-1.0.1.

Check versions:

$ hg up trollius-1.0.1
$ grep '_FUTURE_CLASSES =' trollius/*.py
trollius/futures.py:    _FUTURE_CLASSES = (Future, events.asyncio.Future)
trollius/futures.py:    _FUTURE_CLASSES = Future

$ hg up trollius-1.0
$ grep '_FUTURE_CLASSES =' trollius/*.py
trollius/tasks.py:    _FUTURE_CLASSES = (futures.Future, asyncio.Future)
trollius/tasks.py:    _FUTURE_CLASSES = futures.Future

Ok, so in fact the variable was moved from the Python module trollius.tasks to the modle trollius.futures between versions 1.0 and 1.0.1.

Share files files from Linux to OSX

I tried NFS: issues with non-ASCII characters, issue with Unicode NFC normalization on OS X. Since OS X 10.9, the only way is to use the command line to pass the option -o nfc to mount -t nfs ....

I tried Samba: well, it’s not easy. Let’s say that the directory to share is /data.

Prepare permissions, readable by everybody, UNIX and SELinux permissions:

sudo find  /data -type f -print0|xargs -0 chmod 644
sudo find -type d -print0|xargs -0 chmod 755
sudo semanage fcontext -a -t samba_share_t "/data(/.*)?"
sudo restorecon -R -v data/

Install Samba:

sudo yum install samba samba-common samba-client cups-lib system-config-samba

Use system-config-samba to share /data:

  • run sudo system-config-samba
  • add /data directory as public and make it readable for everybody
  • add a Windows user which is binded to your user (Preference, Samba users)

Start Samba server and run it at boot:

sudo systemctl start smb.service
sudo systemctl start nmb.service
sudo systemctl enable smb.service
sudo systemctl enable nmb.service

Mac OS X:

  • Finder, Go, Access server: use smb://192.168.0.1/data URL
  • Type the user and password
  • Enjoy!

Very good tutorial for Fedora 20: How to enable samba share for a specific directory - Fedora 20.

systemd

list servers

Find the name of the systemd unit for MariaDB or RabbitMQ server.

List all installed services, including disabled services, and search for “maria”:

systemctl list-unit-files --type=service | grep maria

Alternative if you know the package:

$ rpm -ql mariadb-server|grep service
/usr/lib/systemd/system/mariadb.service

List enabled services:

systemctl list-units

Note: it looks like “list-units” doesn’t show mariadb.service, probably because it is disabled (not started at boot).

system logs (syslogs), journald

  • Show syslog from the most recent to the oldest logs: journalctl --reverse
  • Show all logs since the last boot: journalctl -b 0
  • List boots: journalctl --list-boots
  • tail -f /var/log/syslog: journalctl -f
  • tail -f /var/log/syslog but only for apache: journalctl -u apache.service -f

PostgreSQL

Install PostgreSQL server on Fedora 21. Type as root:

yum install postgresql-server
postgresql-setup initdb

Modify /var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf to accept connections from 192.168.0.0/24 network, replace:

#listen_addresses = 'localhost'         # what IP address(es) to listen on;
...
max_connections = 100                  # (change requires restart)

with:

listen_addresses = '*'
...
max_connections = 1000                  # (change requires restart)

Modify /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf to allow login using a password from 192.168.0.0/24 network, replace:

host    all             all             127.0.0.1/32            ident

with:

host    all             all             192.168.0.0/24          md5

Start PostgreSQL:

systemctl start postgresql

Switch to the postgres user (sudo -u postgres -H -s), open the psql client (psql) and type:

CREATE USER bigdata;
ALTER ROLE bigdata WITH CREATEDB;
ALTER USER bigdata WITH ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'password';
CREATE DATABASE bigdata;

Programming advices

  • Coding style: 80 columns, PEP 7 for C, PEP 8 for Python
  • Avoid variable globals
  • Signal handlers: only use signal-safe functions

rsync

Local copy with progress bar and handle sparse files:

rsync -Sav --progress /mnt/vm/images/ /var/lib/libvirt/images/

Thunderbird

Checking for new messages in other folders - Thunderbird.

Set mail.server.default.check_all_folders_for_new=true in advanced settings (Edit > Preference > Advanced > General tab > Config editor).

Gnome-Terminal

Configure Gnome-Terminal to select a full URL double-click:

dconf write /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/:${Profile_ID}/word-char-exceptions '@ms "-,.;/?%&#_=+@~·:"'

Replace ${Profile_ID} with the profile identifier. To get it:

$ gsettings get org.gnome.Terminal.ProfilesList list
['b1dcc9dd-5262-4d8d-a863-c897e6d979b9']

Example:

dconf write /org/gnome/terminal/legacy/profiles:/:b1dcc9dd-5262-4d8d-a863-c897e6d979b9/word-char-exceptions '@ms "-,.;/?%&#_=+@~·:"'

It looks like you don’t have to restart Gnome-Terminal.

IRC

List operators of channel:

/msg ChanServ access #python-fr list

Give operator permission to someone:

/msg ChanServ flags #python-fr skyice +Aeiortv

SSH keygen

Create an SSH key:

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -o -a 100 -C "haypo2017" -f ssh_key
  • -t: key type, http://ed25519.cr.yp.to/
  • -a 100: use 100 rounds of the key derivation function for the passphrase, increase resistance to brute-force password cracking
  • -C: comment
  • -f: filename
  • -o: save private keys using the new OpenSSH format, increased resistance to brute-force password cracking (in fact, -t ed25519 already enables this option)

Issues with ed25519:

Links:

SSH agent:

  • Modify /etc/pam.d/* to lines containing “pam_gnome_keyring.so”
  • Make sure that login still works after the change!!!

Gnome and SSH passphrase:

sudo dnf install -y openssh-askpass

Replace gnome-keyring with ssh-agent to support elliptic curves:

Fedora process:

/usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --daemonize --login

Disable gnome-keyring:

mkdir -p ~/.config/autostart/
cp /etc/xdg/autostart/gnome-keyring-ssh.desktop ~/.config/autostart/
echo "X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false" >>~/.config/autostart/gnome-keyring-ssh.desktop

Rounding

Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding

Rounding modes for floating point numbers:

  • ROUND_FLOOR: Round towards minus infinity (-inf).
    • C: floor()
    • Python: math.floor(float)
    • Python: math.floor(-0.1) == -1
    • Python: math.floor(0.9) == 0
    • For example, used to read a clock.
  • ROUND_CEILING: Round towards infinity (+inf).
    • Python: math.ceil(float)
    • Python: math.ceil(0.1) == 1
    • Python: math.ceil(-0.1) == 0
  • ROUND_HALF_EVEN: Round to nearest with ties going to nearest even integer.
    • For example, used to round from a Python float.
    • Python: round(float)
    • Python: round(0.5) == 0
    • Python: round(1.5) == 2
    • Python: round(2.5) == 2
  • ROUND_UP: Round away from zero.
    • For example, used for timeout. ROUND_CEILING rounds -1e-9 to 0 milliseconds which causes bpo-31786 issue. ROUND_UP rounds -1e-9 to -1 millisecond which keeps the timeout sign as expected. select.poll(timeout) must block for negative values.
  • ROUND_DOWN: Round towards zero.
    • C: (int)double, ex: (int)0.9 == 0
    • Python: int(float)
    • Python: int(0.9) == 0
    • Python: int(-0.9) == 0
    • Python: float.__trunc__()

Other rounding modes (ex: Python decimal module):

  • ROUND_HALF_DOWN: Round to nearest with ties going towards zero.
  • ROUND_HALF_UP: Round to nearest with ties going away from zero.
  • ROUND_05UP: Round away from zero if last digit after rounding towards zero would have been 0 or 5; otherwise round towards zero.

IEEE 754 defines 4 modes:

  • ROUND_HALF_EVEN: default mode
  • ROUND_FLOOR
  • ROUND_CEILING
  • ROUND_DOWN

Process wide vs multithreading

Multithreading is hard because many functions of system C library (libc):

  • modify a state for the whole process: change process wide
  • is not reentrant
  • rely on a global state
  • is not “async signal safe”

Examples of process-wide states:

  • Current working directory aka cwd
    • Modified by chdir()
    • Most “legacy” filesystem functions taking a filename rely on the “current working directory” (cwd), especially using relative path. Exampes: open() or chmod().
    • The new Linux “at” functions don’t rely on the current working directory. Examples: openat() or chmodat().
  • Locales
    • Modified by setlocale()
    • For example, used by strftime() and localeconv().
    • Functions using “wide character strings” (wcs) avoid some issues. Example: wcsftime().
    • Some libraries don’t rely on a global locale but expect a locale argument
  • Unix signals
    • Signal handlers are registered by signal() and sigaction()
    • raise() or kill() to send a signal to a process
    • Per thread API: pthread_kill() (send a signal to a thread), pthread_sigmask() (block signals)

Others:

  • File descriptors: not really an issue in practice if a FD is only used in a single thread.
  • Heap memory, malloc()/free(): modern malloc() implementations scales on threads/CPUs. Not an issue if a memory block is only used in a single thread.
  • User and groups
