Align contextvars, CLI startup, and stat validation with CPython - #8657
Conversation
Validate Context and ContextVar arguments and mapping keys, hash names through the Python protocol, and preserve string contents without invoking __str__. Set the main module loader for command and stdin execution, report missing scripts with exit status 2, and reject file descriptors combined with follow_symlinks=False. Enable the nine corresponding stdlib regression tests. Assisted-by: Codex:gpt-6

In `@crates/stdlib/src/contextvars.rs`:
- Line 527: Update the ContextVar name storage around the name conversion so all
Python str code points, including lone surrogates, are preserved using a
WTF-8-compatible representation instead of Rust String conversion. Ensure
ContextVar.name returns the original value and add a regression test covering
ContextVar("\ud800").name == "\ud800".
In `@crates/vm/src/vm/vm_new.rs`:
- Line 365: Update ensure_main_module so the existing __main__ module path also
invokes set_main_builtin_importer before returning, while preserving the current
setup for newly created modules. Prefer centralizing the importer initialization
after both creation paths if that keeps the behavior equivalent.
In `@src/lib.rs`:
- Line 241: Update the file-loading branch around run_any_file so host-side read
failures from run_simple_file are routed through the existing cant_open_file
helper, preserving its SystemExit(2) diagnostic; keep successful reads and other
execution paths unchanged.
- Line 251: Update the error handling around std::fs::read_to_string so
ErrorKind::InvalidData is handled as a UTF-8 decoding failure rather than passed
to cant_open_file; retain cant_open_file only for genuine file-open errors and
preserve the existing non-decoding behavior.

Preserve all Python str code points in ContextVar.name.
ContextVar.name is stored as a Rust String, and line 527 converts the validated PyStr with to_string(). Rust String cannot represent lone surrogates, so ContextVar("\ud800").name cannot preserve the input. Store the name as a WTF-8-compatible value and add a regression test for ContextVar("\ud800").name == "\ud800".

Map host-side read failures to cant_open_file.
run_any_file calls run_simple_file, which reads the file with crate::host_env::fs::read and converts failures to new_os_error. Therefore, a failure after metadata(path) succeeds bypasses cant_open_file and its required SystemExit(2) diagnostic. Route this read failure through the same helper.

🌐 Web query:
site:doc.rust-lang.org/std/fs/fn.read_to_string.html read_to_string InvalidData UTF-8 ErrorKind
💡 Result:
In Rust, the std::fs::read_to_string function is designed to read the entire contents of a file into a String [1]. Because a Rust String must be valid UTF-8, this function will return an error if the file's contents are not valid UTF-8 [1]. When this occurs during the conversion process, the resulting std::io::Error will typically have an ErrorKind of InvalidData, which indicates that the data provided does not conform to the expected format (in this case, UTF-8 encoding). If you encounter this error, it signifies that the file you are attempting to read contains non-UTF-8 bytes [1].
Citations:
Handle UTF-8 decoding errors separately from file-open errors.
If std::fs::read_to_string returns ErrorKind::InvalidData for invalid UTF-8, this branch passes it to cant_open_file. That helper reports “can't open file”, defaults the missing OS error to 2, and exits with SystemExit(2). Handle decoding errors separately, or read bytes and decode before calling cant_open_file.
