Align integer conversion and byte controls by youknowdot · Pull Request #9702 · RustPython/RustPython

youknowdot · 2026-11-04T12:39:07Z

Summary

Align integer conversions and byte controls with CPython 3.15 in 427 changed production Rust lines across five files.

Retain derived argument binding for int.from_bytes and int.to_bytes, then perform length, byteorder type, signed truth and byteorder value checks in the native order. Keep raw controls alive through conversion and result construction, and share reverse-parameter cleanup on success and body-level errors.
Use the exact bytes fast path, SIMPLE buffer acquisition and existing bytes/iterable fallback in from_bytes. Release temporary exports and returned bytes before integer-subclass construction.
Share literal parsing and canonical bytes diagnostics between implicit and explicit-base integer construction. Preserve string repr callbacks, truncate repr by code points, and retain surrogate text.
Share __int__/__index__ result checks, normalize deprecated __int__ subclass results to exact integers, and propagate warning errors.
Reuse the same strict ssize helper as Align native sequence iterator state and lifecycle #9701 and lossless warning helper as Preserve Unicode in shared qualified type names #9700. These are identical shared helpers, not new per-method parsers.

No Python, Lib, tests, expected-failure markers or workflow changes.

Reference and validation

Compared with CPython commit d220409a13b77de7a6c30abe16ea90db01528edc: integer implementation, generated argument conversions, and numeric protocols.

332 bounded reference assertions plus 11 conversion/lifetime controls and nine independent destruction-order cases. These are CPython/source checks, not RustPython runtime execution.
Independent source review corrected early raw-argument release and declaration-order cleanup before publication. Separate source-composition review preserves numeric normalization, lossless qualified names and exactly one shared helper with Align numeric conversion and rounding boundaries #9697, Preserve Unicode in shared qualified type names #9700 and Align native sequence iterator state and lifecycle #9701. Textual conflicts require retaining both PyObject/PyComplex imports and the shared integer result checks; the combined peer composition was not compiled.
Focused host-env/VM/stdlib threading cargo check, normal all-targets Clippy, formatting, diff checks and ordinary commit hooks passed. Four Clippy diagnostics match unchanged main: one POSIX needless-collect and three ElementTree lints. No warning suppression; strict -D warnings remains blocked by that baseline.

Native RustPython execution, full workspace/C-API runtime suites and cross-platform tests were not run. Hosted CI remains required.

Remaining boundaries

Cleanup follows canonical parameter order. Arbitrarily reordered keyword evaluation and errors during the shared binder itself retain existing binder-level lifetime differences; no full call-stack finalizer parity is claimed.
Surrogate-qualified type names depend on the underlying helper migration in Preserve Unicode in shared qualified type names #9700. This PR's formatting accepts both current and migrated helper types.
Existing int.from_bytes('text') fallback wording and generic bytes() collection distinctions remain outside scope. Cross-thread scheduling and unrelated allocation timing are unchanged.

AI-assisted implementation and independent review using OpenAI Codex; model version is not exposed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

Bug Fixes
- Improved integer conversion from strings, bytes, bytearrays, and other bytes-like values, including more consistent handling of buffer inputs.
- Improved validation of int.from_bytes() and int.to_bytes() arguments, including the order in which invalid values are reported.
- int.from_bytes() now checks that values returned by __bytes__ are bytes.
- Limited long input details in integer-conversion errors to 200 characters or bytes.
- Strict integer subclasses returned by int() or index() now produce a deprecation warning.

Walkthrough

The changes update byte conversion argument handling, centralize integer literal parsing, bound selected error representations, and share validation for int() and __index__() results.

Changes: Integer conversion

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Byte conversion arguments and methods `crates/vm/src/builtins/int.rs`	`from_bytes` retains raw options and uses exact `bytes`, a buffer export, `__bytes__`, then the bytes constructor. `to_bytes` converts and validates `length` before `byteorder` and `signed`. Both methods release retained options after success or error.
Integer literal parsing `crates/vm/src/builtins/int.rs`, `crates/vm/src/protocol/number.rs`	String, bytes, bytearray, and generic bytes-like inputs use shared literal parsers. Generic buffer contents are copied before parsing. Selected error representations and type names are bounded.
int and index result validation `crates/vm/src/protocol/number.rs`	`int()` and `__index__()` share result validation. Exact integers pass, strict subclasses are accepted with a deprecation warning, and other result types raise `TypeError`.

Suggested reviewers: youknowone

Merge Risk: Low · up to dbbd8

Converting a very large bytes-like object with int() copies its contents first. If that copy cannot be allocated, the interpreter may abort instead of raising MemoryError. This is an uncommon edge case with a small fix, so the change is mergeable with that follow-up noted.

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 5 functions across 2 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Handle snapshot allocation failure.

When a large contiguous buffer leaves insufficient memory for its copy, to_vec() can abort the interpreter before parsing. Reserve the snapshot fallibly and return MemoryError instead.
