@BurntSushi BurntSushi commented Aug 20, 2024

This commit refactors how deal with requires-python so that instead of
simplifying markers of dependencies inside the resolver, we do it at the
edges of our system. When writing markers to output, we simplify when
there's an obvious requires-python context. And when reading markers
as input, we complexity markers with the relevant requires-python
constraint.

There are some lingering problems though:

  • This PR doesn't leverage the type system as much as I would hope to
    force folks into dealing with marker serialization correctly. It's a
    very subtle problem and I think we should invest in that, but I think
    it would be better in a follow-up PR since this one is already pretty
    big.
  • Some of the snapshot updates are wrong, some are fixing a bug and
    still others require investigation to figure out whether they're
    correct or not.
  • I side-stepped the issue of MarkerTree's hidden state by
    implementing requires-python marker simplification in a cursed way:
    run restrict_versions, serialize the marker to string form and then
    re-parse it. This should ensure any hidden state in the MarkerTree
    is removed. Of course, this isn't what we should do. I think we should
    just remove the hidden state entirely, but I took a shortcut to prove
    out the idea.

Fixes #6269, Fixes #6412, Fixes #6836

Looking at this..

Here is my current state: I still cannot fully explain the diff on the transformers ecosystem test and I haven't yet investigated the root cause in the change to the error message.

I've spent a lot of time looking at the transformers test case. I've minimized the pyproject.toml down a bit, although it is still quite a large number of dependencies:

[project]
name = "transformers"
version = "4.39.0.dev0"
requires-python = ">=3.9.0"
dependencies = []

[project.urls]
repository = "https://github.com/huggingface/transformers"

[project.optional-dependencies]
accelerate = [
    "accelerate>=0.21.0",
]
flax = [
    "flax>=0.4.1,<=0.7.0",
]
torch-speech = [
    "librosa",
]
quality = [
    "datasets!=2.5.0",
]
all = [
    "tensorflow>=2.6,<2.16",
    "onnxconverter-common",
    "tensorflow-text<2.16",
    "jax>=0.4.1,<=0.4.13",
]
agents = [
    "opencv-python",
]

[build-system]
requires = ["hatchling"]
build-backend = "hatchling.build"

Then lock this using main. Then mv uv.lock main.lock and re-lock using this PR. You end up with a pretty sizeable diff:

$ diff main.lock pr1.lock | wc -l
434

Here's one example of a difference. This is from main:

[[package]]
name = "tensorflow-macos"
version = "2.15.1"
source = { registry = "https://pypi.org/simple" }
resolution-markers = [
    "python_full_version < '3.10' and platform_machine == 'aarch64' and platform_system == 'Linux'",
]
dependencies = [
    { name = "tensorflow-cpu-aws", marker = "python_full_version < '3.10' and platform_machine == 'aarch64' and platform_system == 'Linux'" },
]
wheels = [
    { url = "https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/b3/c8/b90dc41b1eefc2894801a120cf268b1f25440981fcf966fb055febce8348/tensorflow_macos-2.15.1-cp310-cp310-macosx_12_0_arm64.whl", hash = "sha256:b8f01d7615fe4ff3b15a12f84471bd5344fed187543c4a091da3ddca51b6dc26", size = 2158 },
    { url = "https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/bc/11/b73387ad260614ec43c313a630d14fe5522455084abc207fce864aaa3d73/tensorflow_macos-2.15.1-cp311-cp311-macosx_12_0_arm64.whl", hash = "sha256:58fca6399665f19e599c591c421672d9bc8b705409d43ececd0931d1d3bc6a7e", size = 2159 },

]

And this is from this branch:

[[package]]
name = "tensorflow-macos"
version = "2.15.1"
source = { registry = "https://pypi.org/simple" }
resolution-markers = [
    "python_full_version < '3.10' and platform_machine == 'arm64' and platform_system == 'Darwin'",
]

    { url = "https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/bc/11/b73387ad260614ec43c313a630d14fe5522455084abc207fce864aaa3d73/tensorflow_macos-2.15.1-cp311-cp311-macosx_12_0_arm64.whl", hash = "sha256:58fca6399665f19e599c591c421672d9bc8b705409d43ececd0931d1d3bc6a7e", size = 2159 },
    { url = "https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/3a/54/95b9459cd48d92a0522c8dd59955210e51747a46461bcedb64a9a77ba822/tensorflow_macos-2.15.1-cp39-cp39-macosx_12_0_arm64.whl", hash = "sha256:cca3c9ba5b96face05716792cb1bcc70d84c5e0c34bfb7735b39c65d0334b699", size = 2158 },
]

Here's another example. From main:

[[package]]
name = "flatbuffers"
version = "24.3.25"
source = { registry = "https://pypi.org/simple" }
resolution-markers = [
    "python_full_version < '3.10' and platform_machine == 'aarch64' and platform_system == 'Linux'",
]

From this branch:

[[package]]
name = "flatbuffers"
version = "24.3.25"
source = { registry = "https://pypi.org/simple" }
resolution-markers = [
    "python_full_version < '3.10' and platform_machine == 'arm64' and platform_system == 'Darwin'",
]

This represents a key thing I don't yet understand: why does flatbuffers 24.3.25 end up in only one fork? Why doesn't it end up in both forks in both cases? I don't know.

One thing I do know is that this is related to fork prioritization. If I remove forks.sort() from uv-resolver/src/resolver/mod.rs in both main and this branch, then the differences in the lock file go away.

Because of that, I spent some time trying to making fork prioritization in this branch work in the same way as in main. But I think this is very hard to do because of the different requires-python handling and because of the hidden state for Python versions inside of MarkerTree. I think fork prioritization in this branch, as-is, matches the spirit of what it's trying to do: solve for more constraining python_version requirements before less constraining.

Here are my thoughts in summary for where to go from here:

  • Keep trying to discover whether the resolution in this branch is actually incorrect, or if it is just a "different but correct" resolution. If both resolutions are correct, then I'd be tempted to merge (after fixing the error message issue) since this PR does fix other outstanding bugs.
  • I am wondering whether both resolutions are actually incorrect, and perhaps there is a deeper unresolved bug that this PR is exacerbating or just letting manifest in a different way. What leads me to this thought is the shenanigans around tensorflow-macos in both lock files. Moreover, in both cases, dependencies like flatbuffers have a version that end up in one single fork, but the fork it ends up in is different between this branch in main. Why is that? Should it be in both in both cases?
  • I believe it is correct to say that the instigator for all of this is numpy. Because the dependency tree is so large, there are a number of different numpy dependencies with interesting markers. I believe it is the only reason we fork at all in this case.

This is rather odd overall

I think the resolve_warm_jupyter_universal benchmark is pretty noisy. We should probably be good to merge. With that said, this PR does put more pressure on marker ops that could probably be amortized with some refactoring. For example:

impl Forks {
    fn new(
        name_to_deps: BTreeMap<PackageName, Vec<PubGrubDependency>>,
        python_requirement: &PythonRequirement,
    ) -> Forks {
        let python_marker = python_requirement.to_marker_tree();
        let python_marker = python_marker.as_ref();

I've added regression tests for #6269, #6412 and #6836.

These are regression tests for #6269, #6412 and #6836. In this commit,
their test outputs are all wrong. We'll update these snapshots after
fixing the underlying bug by refactoring how `requires-python`
simplification works.
Conversions from strings to paths are always infallible.
When I first wrote this routine, it was intended to only emit a trace
for the final "unioned" resolution. But we actually moved that semantic
operation to the construction of the resolution *graph*. So there is no
unioned `Resolution` any more.

But this is still useful to see. So I changed this to just emit a trace
of *every* resolution right before constructing the graph.

It might be nice to also emit a trace of the unioned graph too. Or
perhaps we should do that instead if this proves too noisy. (Although
this is only emitted at TRACE level.)
This commit refactors how deal with `requires-python` so that instead of
simplifying markers of dependencies inside the resolver, we do it at the
edges of our system. When writing markers to output, we simplify when
there's an obvious `requires-python` context. And when reading markers
as input, we complexity markers with the relevant `requires-python`
constraint.
This update changes the error message to one that is worse than the
status quo, but it is still correct because `datasets >= 2.19` doesn't
actually exist given our `EXCLUDE_NEWER` in tests at present.

The underlying cause here seems to be in how PubGrub deals with
reporting incompatibilities. Namely, when it has `foo < 1` and
`foo >= 1`, it reports an incompatibility immediately before looking for
versions. But when it has `foo < 1` and `foo >= 1 ; marker`, then
because they aren't both pubgrub "packages," it starts requesting
versions first and hits the "not available" error path instead of the
"incompatible" error path.

Since this is more of an underlying issue with how we setup
`PubGrubPackage` and our interaction with pubgrub, we ended up deciding
to move forward here with the regression since this PR is fixing a
correctness issue. In particular, if one changes the `requires-python`
to `>=3.8`, then both `main` and this PR produce similarly bad error
messages.
It is not clear whether this update is correct or not. Moreover, it's
not clear whether the status quo is correct or not. The problem is that
`transformers` is so big that it's very hard to understand what the
right output is without a deeper investigation.

One thing that is interesting is if fork prioritization is removed in
this PR *and* on `main`, then the differences in this ecosystem test go
away.

We've decided for now to move forward with this update even though we're
uncertain because this PR fixes a few outstanding correctness issues.
Unlike the previous update, this message is specifically referring to a
fork's markers inside the resolver. We probably *could* massage the
message to be simplified with respect to requires-python, but it's not
obvious to me that that is the right thing to do.
A `Dependency` now has both "simplified" and "complexified" markers, so
just update the snapshots to match the new reality.
The output no longer results in installig two different versions of
astroid unconditionally on Python 3.10.

Fixes #6269
The `tomli` dependency is now included for `python_version <= 3.11`,
which is what is expected.

Fixes #6412
The `importlib-metadata` is no longer unconditionally repeated in the
output for Python 3.10 (or Python 3.7).

Fixes #6836
Previously we were using `[+-~]`, but this includes the full range of
characters from `+` to `~`. Incidentally, this does include `-`. We
instead rewrite this as `[-+~]`, which probably matches the intent.
The key change here is to use raw strings so that we don't need to
double-escape things like `\d`. And in particular, we rely on the fact
that `"\n"` and `r"\n"` are precisely equivalent when fed to
`Regex::new` in the `regex` crate.
This is to account for slight differences on our Windows CI.

BurntSushi added a commit that referenced this pull request Sep 6, 2024
I split this change into its own commit because I'm hoping it
crystalizes what it means when we say "a `MarkerTree` has hidden state."
That is, it isn't so much that there is some explicit member of a
`MarkerTree` that is omitted, but rather, the lower and upper version
bounds on `python_full_version` are are rewritten as "unbounded" when
traversing the ADD for display.

We will actually retain this functionality, but rejigger it so that it's
explicit when we do this. In particular, this simplification has been
problematic for us because it fundamentally changes the truth tables of
a marker expression *unless* you are extremely careful to interpret it
only under the original context in which it was simplified. This is
quite difficult to do generally, and in prior work in #6268, we
completed a refactor where we worked around this type of simplification
and moved it to the edges of uv.

In subsequent commits, we'll re-implement this form of simplification as
a more explicit step.
