From 42cf8aabfae964f2f1c3731c6013b9b41de1cfaf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: sakenuGOD Date: Mon, 20 Apr 2026 20:06:53 +0300 Subject: [PATCH 1/7] fix(client/stdio): let callers clean up multiple transports independently on asyncio (#577) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit `stdio_client` wrapped its reader / writer in `anyio.create_task_group()` inside the async context manager body. The task group binds its cancel scope to whichever task entered the generator, and anyio enforces a strict LIFO stack on those scopes within a single task. If a caller opened two transports from the same task and then closed them in the order they were opened (FIFO) — which is what happens in multi-client orchestrators, dependency-injection containers and pytest fixtures — teardown crashed with: RuntimeError: Attempted to exit a cancel scope that isn't the current task's current cancel scope On the asyncio backend we can spawn the reader / writer with `asyncio.create_task` instead. The background tasks then live outside any caller-bound cancel scope, so each transport becomes self-contained and the cleanup order of two transports no longer matters. Teardown keeps the documented shutdown sequence (close stdin, wait for the process with `PROCESS_TERMINATION_TIMEOUT`, escalate to `_terminate_process_tree`, then close the memory streams) in a shared `_cleanup_process_and_streams` helper so the two branches can't drift. On structured-concurrency backends (trio) an anyio task group is still required — trio intentionally forbids orphan tasks, and cross-task cleanup is fundamentally incompatible with its model. Those callers still have to clean up LIFO. The backend dispatch goes through `sniffio.current_async_library()`. Regression tests (all asyncio-only): - `test_stdio_client_supports_fifo_cleanup_on_asyncio` — the exact scenario from #577. Verified that it FAILS on the pre-fix code with the original RuntimeError, and passes on the fixed code. - `test_stdio_client_supports_lifo_cleanup_on_asyncio` — historical LIFO path must still work unchanged. - `test_stdio_client_shared_exit_stack_fifo_on_asyncio` — a single AsyncExitStack around two transports (already LIFO under the hood, but worth pinning so future refactors cannot silently break it). All 13 stdio tests pass locally (10 pre-existing + 3 new, 1 Unix-only sigint test skipped on Windows).

An anyio task group would have re-raised that through the `async with` block — the asyncio path has to reproduce that contract to keep the fix observably equivalent. Two changes: 1. `add_done_callback(_on_background_task_done)` — if a background task crashes while the caller is still inside the `yield`, close the memory streams immediately so any in-flight user read wakes up with `ClosedResourceError` instead of hanging forever. Mirrors the scope-cancellation side effect of a task group. The callback logs the exception at debug so operators can trace crashes that we only surface on the way out. 2. On `__aexit__` we now collect task results and re-raise the first non-cancellation, non-closed-resource exception. CancelledError and anyio.ClosedResourceError are expected during the teardown we just forced in `_cleanup_process_and_streams`, so they are swallowed; anything else (a real crash) propagates. New regression test: `test_stdio_client_reader_crash_propagates_on_asyncio` — injects a TextReceiveStream that raises on the first `__anext__`, asserts the exception is visible at the async-with exit. Confirmed it FAILS on the first-commit version ("Failed: DID NOT RAISE"), so it is real regression coverage, not a tautology. All 14 stdio tests pass (10 pre-existing + 4 new, 1 Unix-only skip).

Collapsed the first line of each docstring touched by this PR to sit on the opening-quote line. 2. ruff C901 — the asyncio-vs-task-group dispatch pushed ``stdio_client``'s cyclomatic complexity from below the project's max of 24 up to 29. Extracted the two branches into dedicated async context managers: _asyncio_background_tasks(...) — the asyncio path with add_done_callback to close streams on crash, and the ``__aexit__`` that re-raises non-cancellation exceptions. _anyio_task_group_background(...) — the trio / other-backend path that keeps the original task group. ``stdio_client`` now just picks one based on ``sniffio.current_async_library()`` and uses it as an ``async with`` alongside ``process``. The backend-dispatch behaviour is identical to the first commit — only the shape of the code changed. 3. pyright reportArgumentType — the callable types for the helpers needed to be ``Callable[[], Coroutine[Any, Any, None]]`` because ``asyncio.create_task`` requires a Coroutine, not an Awaitable. Imported ``Coroutine`` and ``Any`` accordingly.

Extracting the trio branch into its own helper function left lines 184-187 (the body of `_anyio_task_group_background`) and the `else:` on line 304 uncovered, because every existing test runs on asyncio. Added `test_stdio_client_supports_lifo_cleanup_on_trio` — parametrised with `anyio_backend=["trio"]`, it exercises the trio branch end-to-end with the LIFO cleanup pattern that is valid on trio. Removed the `# pragma: lax no cover` markers on the helper and the else branch since coverage is now genuine, not silenced. 15/16 stdio tests pass locally (15 real pass + 1 Unix-only SIGINT skip). pyright: 0 errors. ruff: clean. --- tests/client/test_stdio.py | 36 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------- 1 file changed, 29 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/tests/client/test_stdio.py b/tests/client/test_stdio.py index 964e5455c..3140c6d0b 100644 --- a/tests/client/test_stdio.py +++ b/tests/client/test_stdio.py @@ -574,7 +574,7 @@ def sigterm_handler(signum, frame): @pytest.mark.anyio @pytest.mark.parametrize("anyio_backend", ["asyncio"]) -async def test_stdio_client_supports_fifo_cleanup_on_asyncio(anyio_backend): +async def test_stdio_client_supports_fifo_cleanup_on_asyncio(anyio_backend: str): """Regression for https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/python-sdk/issues/577.

Removed them. (The Windows runs did not hit these branches — which explains why Windows matrix passed last round but Linux did not; strict-no-cover runs on the Linux jobs.)

Switched both to ``pragma: lax no cover``, which the project's coverage config already defines as the opt-out marker for exactly this case (exists on other lines in the same file, e.g. 247).
