Debian 10 is not anymore a supported distro, since Debian 12 was
released on June 10, 2023. Our supported build platforms as of today
all support at least 3.8 (and all of them except for Ubuntu 20.04
support 3.9):
openSUSE Leap 15.5: 3.6.15 (3.11.2)
CentOS Stream 8: 3.6.8 (3.8.13, 3.9.16, 3.11.4)
CentOS Stream 9: 3.9.17 (3.11.4)
Fedora 37: 3.11.4
Fedora 38: 3.11.4
Debian 11: 3.9.2
Debian 12: 3.11.2
Alpine 3.14, 3.15: 3.9.16
Alpine 3.16, 3.17: 3.10.10
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS: 3.8.10
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS: 3.10.12
NetBSD 9.3: 3.9.13*
FreeBSD 12.4: 3.9.16
FreeBSD 13.1: 3.9.18
OpenBSD 7.2: 3.9.17
Note: NetBSD does not appear to have a default meta-package, but offers
several options, the lowest of which is 3.7.15. However, "python39"
appears to be a pre-requisite to one of the other packages we request
in tests/vm/netbsd.
Since it is safe under our supported platform policy, bump our
minimum supported version of Python to 3.8. The two most interesting
features to have by default include:
- the importlib.metadata module, whose lack is responsible for over 100
lines of code in mkvenv.py
- improvements to asyncio, for example asyncio.CancelledError
inherits from BaseException rather than Exception
In addition, code can now use the assignment operator ':='
Because mypy now learns about importlib.metadata, a small change to
mkvenv.py is needed to pass type checking.

There are many Python 3.12 issues right now, but a particularly
problematic one when debugging them is that one cannot even use
minreqs.txt in a Python 3.12 virtual environment to test with
locked package versions.
Bump the mypy and wrapt versions to fix this, while remaining
within the realm of versions compatible with Python 3.7.
This requires a workaround for a mypy false positive
qemu/qmp/qmp_tui.py:350: error: Non-overlapping equality check (left operand type: "Literal[Runstate.DISCONNECTING]", right operand type: "Literal[Runstate.IDLE]") [comparison-overlap]
where mypy does not realize that self.disconnect() could change
the value of self.runstate.

The version of pyflakes that is listed in python/tests/minreqs.txt
breaks on Python 3.8 with the following message:
AttributeError: 'FlakesChecker' object has no attribute 'CONSTANT'
Now that we do not support EOL'd Python versions anymore, we can
update to newer, fixed versions. It is a good time to do so, before
Python packages start dropping support for Python 3.7 as well!
The new mypy is also a bit smarter about which packages are actually
being used, so remove the now-unnecessary sections from setup.cfg.

Python 3.6 was EOL 2021-12-31. Newer versions of upstream libraries have
begun dropping support for this version and it is becoming more
cumbersome to support. Avocado-framework and qemu.qmp each have their
own reasons for wanting to drop Python 3.6, but won't until QEMU does.
Versions of Python available in our supported build platforms as of today,
with optional versions available in parentheses:
openSUSE Leap 15.4: 3.6.15 (3.9.10, 3.10.2)
CentOS Stream 8: 3.6.8 (3.8.13, 3.9.16)
CentOS Stream 9: 3.9.13
Fedora 36: 3.10
Fedora 37: 3.11
Debian 11: 3.9.2
Alpine 3.14, 3.15: 3.9.16
Alpine 3.16, 3.17: 3.10.10
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS: 3.8.10
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS: 3.10.4
NetBSD 9.3: 3.9.13*
FreeBSD 12.4: 3.9.16
FreeBSD 13.1: 3.9.16
OpenBSD 7.2: 3.9.16
Note: Our VM tests install 3.9 explicitly for FreeBSD and 3.10 for
NetBSD; the default for "python" or "python3" in FreeBSD is
3.9.16. NetBSD does not appear to have a default meta-package, but
offers several options, the lowest of which is 3.7.15. "python39"
appears to be a pre-requisite to one of the other packages we request in
tests/vm/netbsd. pip, ensurepip and other Python essentials are
currently only available for Python 3.10 for NetBSD.
CentOS and OpenSUSE support parallel installation of multiple Python
interpreters, and binaries in /usr/bin will always use Python 3.6. However,
the newly introduced support for virtual environments ensures that all build
steps that execute QEMU Python code use a single interpreter.
Since it is safe to under our supported platform policy, bump our
minimum supported version of Python to 3.7.

This command is to be used to add various packages (or ensure they're
already present) into the configure-provided venv in a modular fashion.
Examples:
mkvenv ensure --online --dir "${source_dir}/python/wheels/" "meson>=0.61.5"
mkvenv ensure --online "sphinx>=1.6.0"
mkvenv ensure "qemu.qmp==0.0.2"
It's designed to look for packages in three places, in order:
(1) In system packages, if the version installed is already good
enough. This way your distribution-provided meson, sphinx, etc are
always used as first preference.
(2) In a vendored packages directory. Here I am suggesting
qemu.git/python/wheels/ as that directory. This is intended to serve as
a replacement for vendoring the meson source for QEMU tarballs. It is
also highly likely to be extremely useful for packaging the "qemu.qmp"
package in source distributions for platforms that do not yet package
qemu.qmp separately.
(3) Online, via PyPI, ***only when "--online" is passed***. This is only
ever used as a fallback if the first two sources do not have an
appropriate package that meets the requirement. The ability to build
QEMU and run tests *completely offline* is not impinged.

[Use distlib to lookup distributions. - Paolo]
Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
This script will be responsible for building a lightweight Python
virtual environment at configure time. It works with Python 3.6 or
newer.
It has been designed to:
- work *offline*, no PyPI required.
- work *quickly*, The fast path is only ~65ms on my machine.
- work *robustly*, with multiple fallbacks to keep things working.
- work *cooperatively*, using system packages where possible.
(You can use your distro's meson, no problem.)
Due to its unique position in the build chain, it exists outside of the
installable python packages in-tree and *must* be runnable without any
third party dependencies.
Under normal circumstances, the only dependency required to execute this
script is Python 3.6+ itself. The script is *faster* by several seconds
when setuptools and pip are installed in the host environment, which is
probably the case for a typical multi-purpose developer workstation.
In the event that pip/setuptools are missing or not usable, additional
dependencies may be required on some distributions which remove certain
Python stdlib modules to package them separately:
- Debian may require python3-venv to provide "ensurepip"
- NetBSD may require py310-expat to provide "pyexpat" *
(* Or whichever version is current for NetBSD.)

The pipenv tool was nice in theory, but in practice it's just too hard
to update selectively, and it makes using it a pain. The qemu.qmp repo
dropped pipenv support a while back and it's been functioning just fine,
so I'm backporting that change here to qemu.git.

Now that we are fully switched over to the new QMP library, move it back
over the old namespace. This is being done primarily so that we may
upload this package simply as "qemu.qmp" without introducing confusion
over whether or not "aqmp" is a new protocol or not.
The trade-off is increased confusion inside the QEMU developer
tree. Sorry!
Note: the 'private' member "_aqmp" in legacy.py also changes to "_qmp";
not out of necessity, but just to remove any traces of the "aqmp"
name.

Add start_server() and accept() methods that can be used instead of
start_server_and_accept() to allow more fine-grained control over the
incoming connection process.
(Eagle-eyed reviewers will surely notice that it's a bit weird that
"CONNECTING" is a state that's shared between both the start_server()
and connect() states. That's absolutely true, and it's very true that
checking on the presence of _accepted as an indicator of state is a
hack. That's also very certainly true. But ... this keeps client code an
awful lot simpler, as it doesn't have to care exactly *how* the
connection is being made, just that it *is*. Is it worth disrupting that
simplicity in order to provide a better state guard on `accept()`? Hm.)

Refactor _do_accept() into _do_start_server() and _do_accept(). As of
this commit, the former calls the latter, but in subsequent commits
they'll be split apart.
(So please forgive the misnomer for _do_start_server(); it will live up

just cutting down on some churn.)

These two methods attempted to entirely envelop the logic of
establishing a connection to a peer start to finish. However, we need to
break apart the incoming connection step into more granular steps. We
will no longer be able to reasonably constrain the logic inside of these
helper functions.
So, remove them - with _session_guard(), they no longer serve a real
purpose.
Although the public API doesn't change, the internal API does. Now that
there are no intermediary methods between e.g. connect() and
_do_connect(), there's no hook where the runstate is set. As a result,
the test suite changes a little to cope with the new semantics of
_do_accept() and _do_connect().
Lastly, take some pieces of the now-deleted docstrings and move
them up to the public interface level. They were a little more detailed,
and it won't hurt to keep them.

Previously, I had a method named "accept()" that under-the-hood calls
bind(2), listen(2) *and* accept(2). I meant this as a simplification and
counterpart to the one-shot "connect()" method.
This is confusing to readers who expect accept() to mean *just*
accept(2). Since I need to split apart the "accept()" method into
multiple methods anyway (one of which strongly resembling accept(2)), it
feels pertinent to rename this method *now*.
Rename this all-in-one method "start_server_and_accept()" instead.

Setuptools v60 and later include a bundled version of distutils, a
deprecated standard library scheduled for removal in future versions of
Python. Setuptools v60 is only possible to install for Python 3.7 and later.
Python has a distutils.sysconfig.get_python_lib() function that returns
'/usr/lib/pythonX.Y' on posix systems. RPM-based systems actually use
'/usr/lib64/pythonX.Y' instead, so Fedora patches stdlib distutils for
Python 3.7 and Python 3.8 to return the correct value.
Python 3.9 and later introduce a sys.platlibdir property, which returns
the correct value on RPM-based systems.
The change to a distutils package not provided by Fedora on Python 3.7
and 3.8 causes a regression in distutils.sysconfig.get_python_lib() that
ultimately causes false positives to be emitted by pylint, because it
can no longer find the system source libraries.
Many Python tools are fairly aggressive about updating setuptools
packages, and so even though this package is a fair bit newer than
Python 3.7/3.8, it's not entirely unreasonable for a given user to have
such a modern package with a fairly old Python interpreter.
Updates to Python 3.7 and Python 3.8 are being produced for Fedora which
will fix the problem on up-to-date systems. Until then, we can force the
loading of platform-provided distutils when running the pylint
test. This is the least-invasive yet most comprehensive fix.

Run mypy and pylint on the iotests files directly from the Python CI
test infrastructure. This ensures that any accidental breakages to the
qemu.[qmp|aqmp|machine|utils] packages will be caught by that test
suite.
It also ensures that these linters are run with well-known versions and
test against a wide variety of python versions, which helps to find
accidental cross-version python compatibility issues.

Try using avocado to manage our various tests; even though right now
they're only invoking shell scripts and not really running any
python-native code.
Create tests/, and add shell scripts which call out to mypy, flake8,
pylint and isort to enforce the standards in this directory.
Add avocado-framework to the setup.cfg development dependencies, and add
avocado.cfg to store some preferences for how we'd like the test output
to look.
Finally, add avocado-framework to the Pipfile environment and lock the
new dependencies. We are using avocado >= 87.0 here to take advantage of
some features that Cleber has helpfully added to make the test output
here *very* friendly and easy to read for developers that might chance
upon the output in Gitlab CI.
[Note: ALL of the dependencies get updated to the most modern versions
that exist at the time of this writing. No way around it that I have
seen. Not ideal, but so it goes.]
Provided you have the right development dependencies (mypy, flake8,
isort, pylint, and now avocado-framework) You should be able to run
"avocado --config avocado.cfg run tests/" from the python folder to run
all of these linters with the correct arguments.
(A forthcoming commit adds the much easier 'make check'.)
