Every morning when I first try to get to Trac, I get this error on the
first request:

{{{

Comment:

See also #2472, where this error was also reported and discussed.
As that other ticket was about another issue with the 1.3.0 bindings,
it has been closed and this ticket should be used to focus on the
`'apr_pool_t *' is expected` issue.

Comment (by Manuzhai):

This error seems to appear quite often on editing a wiki page. Refreshing
the edit (resending POST data) gives the same error again, going back to
the wiki page, then sending it again too, hard-refreshing the page then
redoing the changes and submitting them still seems to work. Not sure
whether this is always true...

Comment:

I installed mod_python 3.1.4 / Python 2.3 / Subversion 1.3.0 on a single
processor RHEL4 machine and I can't reproduce this issue. Ideas?

Comment (by pjenvey [at] groovie):

I am seeing this problem with python 2.4. The original bug reported to the
subversion-users list also occured under python 2.4

Myabe the fact that you're using python 2.3 is a factor, or possibly some
other dependency version mismatch?

Comment (by Manuzhai):

Yes, I'm also using Python 2.4. The change of import order doesn't solve
all of the problem, though it does seem that it doesn't happen as often
now. That might have to do with my usage pattern, though...

Can you try to split the `import` in several lines, i.e.
{{{
try:
from svn import core
from svn import fs
# etc.
}}}

Comment:

I think I understand the issue: having all the imports
in one line allows two threads (A and B) to start
simultaneously the import process:
* A: trac/versioncontrol/svn_fs.py: `from svn import fs, repos, core,
delta`
* B: trac/versioncontrol/svn_fs.py: `from svn import fs, repos, core,
delta`
* A: in svn/fs.py, line 19: `from libsvn.core import *`,
* A: now in libsvn/core.py, is going through the > 3000 lines...
* B: in svn/fs.py, line 19: `from libsvn.core import *`,
* B: now in libsvn/core.py, is going through the > 3000 lines...
* A: in libsvn/core.py, line 3049: does a `_core.svn_pool_create` [[BR]]
and here, `_core` is ''really'' `_core` (i.e. the native extension)
* A: in svn/fs.py, line 29: `import svn.core as _core`
* B: in libsvn/core.py, line 3049: does a `_core.svn_pool_create` [[BR]]
and now, `_core` is '''not''' `_core` but `svn.core` and therefore,
`_core.svn_pool_create` is not the native function but the (deprecated)
compatibility function, which expects a pool as first argument...
hence the error.

Hopefully splitting the imports does solve the issue,
but the bindings should really be more robust about that
and ''not'' rename different things to a same name...

I have not been able to reproduce the problem (even with Python 2.4 and
mod_python 3.1.3), but, I think I have figured out how to fix it. Please
try the below patch (for Subversion 1.3.0).

Comment (by james82 [at] gmail):

'''Important note:'''
In order for the above patch to take effect, you'll need to install SWIG
1.3.25, and run the following commands:
{{{
make extraclean
./autogen.sh
./configure
make swig-py
make install-swig-py
}}}
Note that you need to `make extraclean` to remove any old headers shipped
with the tarball.

Manuzhai -

Did splitting the import into multiple lines solve the problem?

If not, I'll see if I can give james' patch a shot later today

Splitting the import didn't solve the problem.

James' fix is a little involved for me, I just install SVN & bindings
through emerge, I'm afraid. I could try it, but I'm not sure when I get to
it.

Comment (by pjenvey [at] groovie):

james - I upgraded to swig 1.3.27, applied your patch and did the whole
make extraclean/autogen. Now I am noticing a different, similar error:

{{{

Instead of seeing the stack trace in my error log (where I saw the
original apr_pool_t exception), it shows up on an actual trac "Oops...
Trac detected an internal error:" error page. I can't tell if this is due
to your patch, the swig upgrade, or both

This new error is intermittent like the old one. Occasionally I receive
either 404 responses or blank pages instead of the error message. Nothing
in the error_log

Also: I got the impression the make extraclean/reautogen would end up
creating a brand new subversion/includes/svn_types.h file corresponding to
your change to svn_types.swg. That was not the case -- the patch was
successfully applied, but I ended up with the same svn_types.h file. Let
me know if that is actually a problem

Hi pjenvey,

It looks like you applied the patch correctly, but my patch did not help.
I am not surprised by your new error message, because it is the same as
the one that was reported earlier on the users list.

Could you send the full details for your system, and the full details of
your apache configuration including your httpd.conf and a description of
which "mpm" you are using (e.g. the worker mpm, or the prefork mpm). I
would like to try to reproduce the problem by copying your configuration.
Are you using Linux, Mac OS, or something else?

Here's a question for the group: In mod_python, does the "global
interpreter lock" lock just the current interpreter or does it lock all
interpreters? If the "global interpreter lock" only locks the current
interpreter, then it explains our problem. We will need to use a different
locking system in order to prevent race conditions during pool
initialization. Perhaps an APR lock would do the trick?

Cheers,

David

Comment (by Manuzhai):

From http://docs.python.org/api/threads.html (and my understanding), the
GIL just locks all but one threads '''within''' one interpreter. So if
multiple interpreters are at work, we need a different locking mechanism
(in which case the APR lock would seem like the best solution).

Comment (by David James <james82 [at] gmail>):

Hi pjenvey, Manzuhai:

After thinking about this problem some more, I have written a patch which
uses Python locking to solve the race condition in application pool
initialization. Could you give this patch a try?

Could you attach this patch to the ticket insteading of showing it inline?
I'm having a hard time getting it applied correctly. Thanks!

Hi Manzuhai,

The patch is attached. I've also posted it to the Subversion developers
list, at http://svn.haxx.se/dev/archive-2006-01/0946.shtml

Cheers,

David
