MAINT: move comparison operator special-handling out of ufunc parsing. #11282

mhvk · 2018-06-08T15:29:57Z

The argument parsing for ufuncs contains special logic to enable returning NotImplemented for comparison functions. The ufuncs, however, should not have to know whether they were called via a python comparison operator, so this PR moves the logic to the operators, checking after ufunc failed
whether a NotImplemented should be returned.

Follow-up of #11260, in particular #11260 (comment)

numpy/core/src/multiarray/arrayobject.c

I tried using the seemingly more logical PyArray_FromAny(other, NULL, 0, 0, 0, NULL) but somehow this returns a failure when other is a python string.

You probably need to PyErr_Fetch above, before you start calling any more functions - most python functions are not willing to run if an exception is actively being thrown

Ah, yes, that indeed does it!

eric-wieser · 2018-06-08T15:47:18Z

This presumably means np.equal("one", 1) no longer returns `NotImplemented?

mhvk · 2018-06-08T15:52:05Z

@eric-wieser - yes, indeed, the ufuncs themselves will no longer return NotImplemented - which means this would definitely need a note to that extent. So, not for 1.15!

eric-wieser · 2018-06-08T15:55:08Z

Can you add some tests for ufuncs no longer returning NotImplemented?

eric-wieser · 2018-06-08T15:56:37Z

numpy/core/src/multiarray/arrayobject.c

Maybe better to just add a PyObject *warning_type argument to the original function, and use PyErr_WarnEx(warning_type, msg, 1) in place of DEPRECATE_FUTUREWARNING

Since I needed the fetch the error anyway, the need for the new function disappeared...

It would be nice even at this early stage to document the user-visible changes and change the tests appropriately

mhvk · 2018-06-08T17:18:11Z

OK, now simpler with PyArray_FromAny - and some tests that were ready to go enabled.

@mattip - agreed about documentation, but there isn't even a file for the 1.16 release notes yet... But the main effect is the one @eric-wieser noted: now the ufuncs themselves will error rather than return NotImplemented (surely a good thing...)

charris · 2018-06-08T17:40:52Z

Just to emphasize, do not merge before the 1.15 branch.

mhvk · 2018-06-08T18:34:07Z

OK, tests now all pass - further review much appreciated!

mhvk · 2018-06-10T17:17:28Z

Rebased, so now this is just a single commit.

mhvk · 2018-06-14T17:41:21Z

With 1.15 branches, I rebased this and added a release note for 1.16. If everyone is still happy with this, it would be nice to merge it, since I have other changes to the ufunc parsing in the pipeline (#11333 in particular).

mhvk · 2018-06-18T19:36:08Z

@mattip, @eric-wieser - any further comments on this?

eric-wieser · 2018-06-18T19:50:27Z

numpy/core/src/multiarray/arrayobject.c

Would be clearer if other_is_flexible and ndim_other were assigned in this path, rather than initialized.

The argument parsing for ufuncs contains special logic to enable returning NotImplemented for comparison functions. The ufuncs, however, should not have to know whether they were called via a python comparison operator, so this PR moves the logic to the operators, checking after ufunc failed whether a NotImplemented should be returned.

mhvk · 2018-06-18T20:11:36Z

OK, thanks, did all three.

eric-wieser · 2018-06-18T20:42:24Z

numpy/core/src/multiarray/arrayobject.c

I think this should

Appear before the DEPRECATE_FUTUREWARNING line

say placeholder warning, not placeholder error.

It is just that if the deprecation is removed, the chained exception should be replaced (I wanted to have code that would at least work, but didn't feel like creating the array now...). I clarified this.

I'd say that's obvious, in the same way that the return NULL should also be replaced

eric-wieser · 2018-06-18T20:44:51Z

numpy/core/src/multiarray/arrayobject.c

Can you extract the contents of this long if to _failed_compare_workaround(self, other, op), or something similar (documented to expect an exception to already be in flight)

mhvk · 2018-06-18T21:39:56Z

OK, pushed an extra commit moving the failure path to its own function.

I think it would be tidy to move this to a fail: label

eric-wieser · 2018-06-18T22:26:56Z

numpy/core/src/multiarray/arrayobject.c

This could also be the fail label - PyArray_ChainExceptionsCause is a shorhand for PyErr_Restore if no exception is set.

Yes, this makes a lot more sense.

mhvk · 2018-06-19T00:51:50Z

@mattip, @eric-wieser - all implemented.

eric-wieser · 2018-06-19T02:09:08Z

numpy/core/src/multiarray/arrayobject.c

This line should be the ChainExceptions, not PyErr_Restore. The former implies the latter, not vice versa

A comment here saying "Reraise the original exception, or chain the new one" might be nice too

eric-wieser · 2018-06-19T04:39:31Z

doc/release/1.16.0-notes.rst

"such as np.equal" might be helpful here.

eric-wieser · 2018-06-19T04:39:57Z

doc/release/1.16.0-notes.rst

Can you point out that the comparison operators continue to return NotImplemented as before?

eric-wieser · 2018-06-19T04:41:57Z

numpy/core/src/multiarray/arrayobject.c

Perhaps just "when this warning is removed, it should return a correctly-shaped array of bool.

eric-wieser · 2018-06-19T04:42:35Z

numpy/core/src/multiarray/arrayobject.c

I'd probably add an else { goto fail; } here, just to have somewhere obvious to tie the comment to. The compiler should optimize it just the same anyway

mhvk · 2018-06-19T11:18:44Z

@eric-wieser - thanks for the further comments; all done.

eric-wieser

Implementation looks good now.

Did you just cut up the original long comment, or did you throw it out and reword it? I haven't yet checked to see if all of the important bits survived.

mhvk · 2018-06-20T13:10:50Z

Yes, I reworded the long comment, removing parts not relevant for comparison operators. I think it now (even) more clearly states where we want to go.

mhvk · 2018-06-21T12:55:07Z

As this was approved, I'll go ahead and merge so I can can rebase some of the other PRs (which will be easier to look at without the long distracting stuff in get_ufunc_arguments)

eric-wieser · 2018-06-21T16:40:44Z

numpy/core/src/multiarray/arrayobject.c

+    }
+    else {
+        /* LE, LT, GT, or GE with non-flexible other; just pass on error */
+        goto fail;


I'm not clear on why this path doesn't return NotImplemented in py3

The reason is that the comparison is actually implemented, i.e., the error is real and we act just like we would do for __add__ (note that the behaviour was the same before this PR).
