Bug description:

I'm using coverage and pytest-cov in CI to measure the line coverage of the unittests. It is achieved by registering a trace function with sys.settrace.

However, after binsecting my unittests, I found that when a RecursionError is raised, the system trace function will be cleared. That will cause a warning emitted by coverage:

~/Projects/cpython/venv/lib/python3.15t/site-packages/coverage/pytracer.py:355: CoverageWarning: Trace function changed, data is likely wrong: None != <bound method PyTracer._trace of <PyTracer at 0x200021dcc20: 2076 data points in 11 files>> (trace-changed)
  self.warn(

Reproducible code:

import sys


def tracer(*args, **kwargs):
    pass


def factorial(n: int) -> int:
    """Calculate the factorial of a number."""
    if n <= 1:
        return 1
    return n * factorial(n - 1)


sys.settrace(tracer)
assert sys.gettrace() is tracer

sys.setrecursionlimit(64)
assert sys.gettrace() is tracer

try:
    _ = factorial(100)
except RecursionError:
    pass

assert sys.gettrace() is None

研究方向

執行提供的 reproducer,並檢查遞迴呼叫 factorial 周圍 sys.settrace、sys.gettrace 和 RecursionError 的行為。追蹤 CPython 中涉及遞迴限制處理和 tracing 的實作路徑;完成的標準是已註冊的 trace 函式在 RecursionError 之後仍可用,並且為該 reproducer 提供回歸測試涵蓋。
