host_env: Use close_range syscall (FreeBSD/Linux) - #9016
joshuamegnauth54 wants to merge 1 commit into
Conversation
FreeBSD and Linux implement a syscall for close_range. It's faster than looping through the file descriptors to close which would cause a context switch per descriptor. CPython also uses the syscall where available. See: * https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?close_range(2) * https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/close_range.2.html

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Close valid descriptors when fd_low is negative.
The Python-facing caller accepts an i32 lower bound. For closerange(-1, 4), the old loop attempted descriptors 0 through 3, but c_uint::try_from(-1) now fails and the function closes none. Clamp the lower bound to zero before conversion, while keeping an empty range as a no-op. (man7.org)

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Fall back when close_range fails.
Linux added close_range in kernel 5.9. If the syscall is unavailable, it fails and this function silently leaves every descriptor in the range open. Check its return value and use the existing per-descriptor behavior on failure. This also preserves closing behavior for other syscall errors. (man7.org)

When RustPython runs with a userspace that exports close_range on a host kernel that does not implement the syscall (for example, an upstream pre-5.9 Linux kernel), this call returns -1 with ENOSYS; discarding that result makes os.closerange() return normally while leaving the entire requested range open. The old per-descriptor path is cfg'd out here, so callers that use this for child cleanup can leak descriptors into the executed process; retain that loop as an ENOSYS fallback.

For os.closerange() calls where fd_low < 0 < fd_high (for example, (-1, 4)), this failed conversion skips the syscall entirely, so even descriptors 0 through 3 remain open. Invalid descriptor numbers are meant to have their close errors ignored while iteration continues—the previous implementation and the documented half-open-range contract both close the nonnegative suffix—so clamp the low endpoint or fall back to the loop rather than abandoning the range.
