asyncio.create_subprocess_shell().communicate() hangs about viztracer

[gaogaotiantian]

Can you provide a minimum reproducing example so I can take a look at it?

[gaogaotiantian]

The root cause is my monkey patch to subprocess.Popen when shell=True. I fixed it in #434 and it will be out in the next release. In the mean time, if you need the feature immediately, feel free to install from the github source directly.

Ok here you go. Looks like it has to do with subprocessing out to python as well. (Using an echo command doesn't have the same issue.) Viztracer version is 0.16.3. Python is 3.12.3 on Arch Linux.

In subpython.py:

print("hello viztracer")

In viztracer_asyncio_subprocess.py:

import asyncio

async def run_echo():
    process = await asyncio.create_subprocess_shell(
        "python subpython.py",
        stdout=asyncio.subprocess.PIPE,
        stderr=asyncio.subprocess.PIPE)
    stdout, stderr = await process.communicate()
    print(stdout)

asyncio.run(run_echo())

Run python viztracer_asyncio_subprocess.py and get:

b'hello viztracer\n'

Run viztracer viztracer_asyncio_subprocess.py and it hangs. ctrl-c gives:

Thank you so much!

[tannewt]

I installed from source and it works. Thanks again!

[gaogaotiantian]

No problem :)
