From ffe5a060a1b24bedc2aac5d60d6b3b7e40f55adc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vincent Fazio <5265893+vfazio@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 28 Feb 2024 13:55:04 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] gh-115382: Fix cross compiles when host and target use same SOABI Previously, when a build was configured to use a host interpreter via --with-build-python, the PYTHON_FOR_BUILD config value included a path in PYTHONPATH that pointed to the target's built external modules. For "normal" foreign architecture cross compiles, when loading compiled external libraries, the target libraries were processed first due to their precedence in sys.path. These libraries were then ruled out due to a mismatch in the SOABI so the import mechanism continued searching until it found the host's native modules. However, if the host interpreter and the target python were on the same version + SOABI combination, the host interpreter would attempt to load the target's external modules due to their precedence in sys.path. Despite the "match", the target build may have been linked against a different libc or may include unsupported instructions so loading or executing the target's external modules can lead to crashes. Now, the path to the target's external modules is no longer defined in PYTHONPATH to prevent accidentally loading these foreign modules. One caveat is that during certain build stages, the target's sysconfig module requires higher precedence than the host's version in order to accurately query the target build's configuration. This worked previously due to the target's sysconfig data module having precedence over the host's (see above). In order to keep this desired behavior, a new environment variable, _PYTHON_SYSCONFIGDATA_PATH, has been defined so sysconfig can search this directory for the target's sysconfig data.
