self._manager is None when proxy gets passed between processes and causes AttributeError

Reproduisez l’échec avec l’exemple minimal test.py, puis examinez Lib/multiprocessing/managers.py autour de BaseProxy._callmethod ainsi que la PR liée gh-99598. C’est terminé lorsqu’un proxy transmis à un autre processus peut appeler make_child sans l’AttributeError et que la régression est couverte par un test.

Bug report

When a proxy derived from multiprocessing.managers.BaseProxy is passed between processes, the self._manager attribute becomes None. self._manager is however accessed to retrieve its _registry attribute, which contain the method_to_typeid map recorded into the manager viaBaseManager.register(), causing an AttributeError. The solution is to decouple the role of the manager from the role of the registry and propagate the registry separately. I'll submit a pull request to fix this.

Minimal failing example

test.py

from multiprocessing import Process
from multiprocessing.managers import BaseProxy, BaseManager


class Parent(object):
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        pass

    def make_child(self):
        return Parent()


class MyManager(BaseManager):
    pass


def child_generator(parent):
    parent.make_child()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    MyManager.register('Parent', callable=Parent,
                       method_to_typeid={'make_child': 'Parent'})

    with MyManager() as manager:
        parent = manager.Parent()
        process = Process(target=child_generator, args=(parent, ))
        process.start()
        process.join()
