no default __reduce__ due to non-trivial __cinit__

• uvloop version: 0.17.0
• Python version: 3.11
• Platform: Linux - python:3.11-slim-buster docker image on ubuntu VM
• Can you reproduce the bug with PYTHONASYNCIODEBUG in env?: Yes
• Does uvloop behave differently from vanilla asyncio? How?: Unknown. Uvicorn installs uvloop by default, so we would need to switch the web server.

Summary

• We are running fastapi web app with uvicorn web server and uvloop as the event loop. For CPU heavy handlers with asynchronous dependencies (in this case, we have ETL handlers that depends on AsyncOpenSearch client), we submit asynchronous tasks to ProcessPoolExecutor to distribute the load over multiple CPU cores.
  The approach worked fine for classic non async handlers. For async ones, the runtime eventually starts raising exceptions on subsequent asynchronous handlers submitted. Upon runtime start, everyting work fine for several hours. After some time (or perhaps some trigger I failed to find), the handlers stop working completely, always raising the same exception. Restarting the server helps for several hours before issues start to reappear.

How to reproduce

• Unknown, probably happens every time the server gets idle for unknown period of time. Switching multiprocessing context between fork / spawn has not changed the outcome.

Code snippet

ProcessPoolExecutor wrapper

def run_and_block_coroutine(func: Callable, *args, **kwargs):
    return asyncio.run(func, *args, **kwargs)

class ProcessPoolOrchestrator:
    _worker_pool: ProcessPoolExecutor

    def __init__(self, worker_count: int = multiprocessing.cpu_count() * 2):
        self._worker_pool = ProcessPoolExecutor(
            max_workers=worker_count,
            mp_context=multiprocessing.get_context("spawn"),
        )

    def submit_task_async(self, task: Coroutine, *args, **kwargs) -> Future:
        new_args = (task, *args)
        return self._worker_pool.submit(run_and_block_coroutine, *new_args, **kwargs)

Example fastapi endpoint

app = FastAPI()
worker_orchestrator = ProcessPoolOrchestrator()

@app.post("/upload_data/")
async def upload_data_endpoint(
    input_data: int,
    async_client: AsyncOpenSearch = Depends(AsyncOpenSearch),
    use_case: AsyncLoaderUseCase = Depends(AsyncLoaderUseCase),
):
    result = worker_orchestrator.submit_task_async(
        use_case.execute,
        async_client,
        input_data,
    )
    logging.info(result.result()) # calling result.result() raises the internal error that was raised in the process pool
    return "Successfully uploaded."

Example use case / handler

class AsyncLoaderUseCase:
    async def execute(
        self,
        async_client: AsyncOpenSearch
        input_data: int
    ):
         domain_data = input_data**5 # just to simulate some cpu heavy call
         return await async_client.index(json.dumps(domain_data))

Any idea what I am dealing with here would be appreciated. 🙏

Il traceback punta a uvloop.loop.Loop.reduce_cython mentre ProcessPoolExecutor serializza un’attività inviata; inizia riducendo l’esempio con Python 3.11, uvloop 0.17.0 e multiprocessing spawn intorno a ProcessPoolOrchestrator.submit_task_async e all’endpoint FastAPI. Il lavoro è completo quando viene identificato un errore riproducibile di uvloop oppure viene confermato che gli oggetti inviati non sono supportati, con un test di regressione mirato se il problema è in uvloop.
