Summary

FuncArgs::bind_for rejects surplus positional arguments before converting any (#9242), but a missing required argument is found only when FromArgs::from_args reaches it, after the arguments ahead of it have been converted. A conversion can run user code, so itertools.compress(it) raises whatever it.__iter__() raises. CPython's _PyArg_UnpackKeywords checks both bounds before itertools_compress_impl calls iter().

mmap() is the exception. CPython still parses it with PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords, which converts the arguments it was given before it reports a missing one, so mmap.mmap(x) raises whatever x.__index__() raises. Among the 3.15.2 callers of PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords with two or more required arguments, it is the only one RustPython binds natively where converting an earlier argument runs user code.

date() and datetime() moved to Argument Clinic in 3.15 and get the early check. They were bound with no name, so a missing argument was reported as function missing required argument.

AS-IS

>>> class FailingIter:
...     def __iter__(self): raise RuntimeError
...
>>> itertools.compress(FailingIter())

>>> math.isclose(FailingFloat(), rel_tol=1)  # __float__ raises RuntimeError
RuntimeError
>>> datetime.date(FailingIndex())  # __index__ raises RuntimeError
RuntimeError
>>> datetime.date(1)
TypeError: function missing required argument 'month' (pos 2)

TO-BE

>>> itertools.compress(FailingIter())
TypeError: compress() missing required argument 'selectors' (pos 2)
>>> itertools.compress(data=FailingIter())
TypeError: compress() missing required argument 'selectors' (pos 2)
>>> math.isclose(FailingFloat(), rel_tol=1)

TypeError: date() missing required argument 'month' (pos 2)
>>> datetime.date(1)
TypeError: date() missing required argument 'month' (pos 2)
>>> mmap.mmap(FailingIndex())  # unchanged
RuntimeError

(matching CPython 3.15.2)

Changes

  • In crates/vm/src/function/argument.rs, when fewer positional arguments are given than the lower arity bound, bind_for walks T::PARAMS for the first required positional parameter that neither a positional argument nor a keyword fills, and reports it before from_args runs. The walk, missing_positional(), follows duplicate_name_and_position(): a positional-or-keyword parameter gives MissingRequiredArgument, a positional-only one gives TooFewArgs.
  • Only bindings that declare PARAMS, which the FromArgs derive does, are covered. Tuple bindings of bare objects, such as math.comb(x) or list.insert(x), keep converting first, and required keyword-only parameters are not checked early.
  • Add FromArgs::CONVERTS_BEFORE_MISSING, set by #[pyarg(convert_before_missing)] on a derived struct, which skips the early check. A tuple binding, as a #[pyfunction] uses, and a struct flattening such a field inherit it. Both MmapNewArgs set it.
  • In crates/stdlib/src/_datetime.rs, bind the date() and datetime() arguments by name.
  • Extend extra_tests/snippets/vm_argument_errors.py with compress() missing selectors, given data by position, by keyword, and alongside an unrelated keyword, and date() given a raising __index__. Extend stdlib_mmap.py with mmap() given one, which still raises it; mmap is not built on WASI.

Test plan

Built and run on macOS aarch64 against upstream/main 713e14c, using the CI feature set --no-default-features --features stdlib,importlib,stdio,encodings,sqlite,ssl-rustls-aws-lc,host_env,doc,ucd_3_2_0, plus threading, compared with CPython 3.15.2.

  • The extended extra_tests/snippets/vm_argument_errors.py fails on an unpatched build of that commit (at compress(FailingIter())) and passes with the patch and under CPython 3.15.2.
  • rustpython -m test test_itertools test_math test_builtin test_datetime test_mmap: 1,598 run, 162 skipped, all pass.
  • The stdlib_datetime.py and extended stdlib_mmap.py snippets pass.
  • cargo test -p rustpython-vm --lib function::argument::tests passes, and fails with the tuple forwarding removed.
  • cargo fmt --check clean, and ruff format --check and ruff check pass on the snippet.
  • The Windows MmapNewArgs is not built here.

I used Claude Code (claude-opus-5-5) to draft the analysis, the patch and this description; I reviewed the change and ran every command above myself.

Walkthrough

Argument binding now checks for missing required arguments before converting supplied values. A new legacy parser supports derived argument structs and is used by selected standard-library callables, including Windows API functions.

Changes: Argument parsing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Missing argument validation
crates/vm/src/function/argument.rs, crates/vm/src/function/mod.rs, extra_tests/snippets/vm_argument_errors.py
bind_for checks for missing required arguments before conversion. Metadata and tuple implementations track required keyword-only arguments. Tests cover missing-argument errors and method-instance handling.
Legacy parser API
crates/vm/src/function/legacy_args.rs, crates/vm/src/function/getargs.rs, crates/vm/src/function/mod.rs
ArgSpec and ArgSlots provide sequential parsing, conversion checks, and argument validation. The function module replaces the getargs module and re-exports the new parser API.
Derived legacy argument bindings
crates/derive-impl/src/from_args.rs, crates/derive/src/lib.rs
The FromArgs derive supports validated legacy and fname options, generates bindings through ArgSpec, and retains normal-mode generation. Documentation and tests cover the options and field restrictions.
Standard-library parser adoption
crates/stdlib/src/_datetime.rs, crates/stdlib/src/json.rs, crates/stdlib/src/mmap.rs, crates/stdlib/src/posixshmem.rs, crates/vm/src/stdlib/_functools.rs, crates/vm/src/stdlib/_winapi.rs, extra_tests/snippets/*
Selected standard-library argument structs use legacy parsing. Windows API functions bind through argument structs. Tests check missing-argument precedence and conversion behavior.

Explanation

[#9506] FuncArgs::bind_for checks for missing arguments before conversion. Parameter metadata identifies selectors for both positional and keyword data. The argument-error snippets cover the missing-argument behavior. The legacy parser preserves convert-first behavior for mmap.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

[#9506] The early check, legacy-parser support, and regression tests relate to argument-conversion order. However, _functools.rs also changes _lru_cache_wrapper arguments from positional-only to keyword-capable and renames function to user_function. _winapi.rs likewise changes several positional function parameters to named legacy-parser fields. These changes expand keyword acceptance independently of the missing-argument check.

Resolution

Separate the keyword-acceptance changes from this pull request, or provide issue scope that requires them. Keep the changes needed to preserve conversion order.

Docstring coverage is 32.35% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2.

crates/vm/src/function/argument.rs:327-330
Minor · Functional Correctness · Low value

The early missing-argument check misses a required positional that follows an optional one.

The check runs only when the positional count is below arity.start(). That value counts the required positional fields. The gate therefore assumes required fields fill a prefix of the positions. TkAppConstructorArgs declares want_tk (default = true) before the required use_. Seven positional arguments equal the required count, so the gate skips the check. from_args then converts want_tk before it reaches use_. A conversion error from want_tk then hides the missing-argument error for use_.

Add a datetime.datetime missing-month case to the snippet.

The snippet checks the named missing-argument message for date() and compress(), but no case checks it for datetime.datetime(). The constructor now binds with args.bind_for(vm, "datetime"). A revert to unnamed bind would not fail the snippet. Add a case that omits month and asserts the named message:

         TypeError,
         "date() missing required argument 'month' (pos 2)",

Narrow the derive doc on missing-argument order.

The doc says a missing argument is reported before conversion when convert_before_missing is absent. missing_positional skips required keyword-only parameters, so an earlier argument that fails conversion raises first. The doc should state only the cases the binder checks early.

Nitpick Add a behavior test for mixed tuple binding order.

1137-1142: Trivial · Maintainability & Code Quality · Quick win

Add a behavior test for mixed tuple binding order.

The test converts_before_missing_reaches_every_binding checks only CONVERTS_BEFORE_MISSING constants. A change to bind_for that reorders missing-argument and conversion errors for (OptionalArg<i32>, ConvertsFirst) would leave this test passing. Add a test that binds this tuple with a raising conversion and a missing required argument. Assert the raised exception and whether the conversion ran.

ok, the patch is aligning default behavior to argument clinic. but added converts_before_missing for non-clinic parsing. I agree this is good direction to go.

1166-1197: Trivial · Maintainability & Code Quality · Quick win

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

Remove the duplicated multi-element check_before_convert body.

The second arm of tuple_check_before_convert! repeats the default FromArgs::check_before_convert at Lines 705-732. Both bodies run the same sequence of checks: excess positional arguments, duplicate name and position, then the missing-argument walk. Both read Self::PARAMS, Self::HAS_REQUIRED_KEYWORD_ONLY and Self::missing_from, and the tuple impl overrides all three.

Only the one-element tuple needs an override, so that it delegates to its element. Make the multi-element arm expand to nothing and let the trait default apply. Otherwise the two copies can drift apart when the default changes.

FuncArgs::bind_for counted surplus positional arguments before
converting any, but a missing required argument was found only when
FromArgs::from_args reached it, after converting the arguments ahead
of it. A conversion can run user code, so itertools.compress(it)
raised whatever it.__iter__() raised instead of the TypeError for the
missing selectors argument.

When fewer positional arguments are given than the lower arity bound,
walk T::PARAMS for the first required positional parameter that no
argument fills and report it before from_args runs.

mmap() is parsed by PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords, which converts the
arguments it was given before it reports a missing one, so
mmap.mmap(x) raises whatever x.__index__ raises. Reporting the missing
length first broke that. Add FromArgs::CONVERTS_BEFORE_MISSING, set by
for it, and mark both MmapNewArgs.

date and datetime moved to Argument Clinic in 3.15, so they now report
the missing argument first, but bound with no name and said
"function missing required argument". Bind them for "date" and
"datetime".

A #[pyfunction] binds its arguments as a tuple, and the tuple FromArgs
impl did not forward CONVERTS_BEFORE_MISSING, so the attribute only
worked for a struct bound directly, such as a constructor's Args. OR
it over the tuple's members, and over a derived struct's flattened
fields, and cover both with a unit test.

Move the mmap() case to stdlib_mmap.py: mmap is not built on WASI, which
runs vm_argument_errors.py but skips stdlib_mmap.py.

…s with ArgSpec

Remove FromArgs::CONVERTS_BEFORE_MISSING and #[pyarg(convert_before_missing)].

The missing-argument check in FuncArgs::bind_for is now FromArgs::missing_from.
A binding with no PARAMS and arity 1..=1 counts as one required positional-only
parameter, and tuple bindings walk their components, so math.comb(x) and
list.insert(x) report "expected 2 arguments, got 1" before converting x. A
method's instance argument is skipped without advancing the position.

A required keyword-only parameter missing from the keywords is reported before
any conversion. FromArgs::HAS_REQUIRED_KEYWORD_ONLY is computed from PARAMS at
compile time, so a call that gives every required positional argument walks
nothing unless the type has such a parameter.

Make ArgSpec public and parse with it, converting each argument in kwlist
order, the callables that 3.15.2 parses with PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords or
_PyArg_ParseStackAndKeywords and whose earlier required arguments can fail to
convert: mmap.mmap, _functools._lru_cache_wrapper, _json.make_encoder,
_posixshmem.shm_open, and _winapi CreateEventW, CreateMutexW, OpenEventW,
OpenMutexW, LCMapStringEx, ReadFile, WriteFile, CopyFile2. The pyfunctions take
FuncArgs and carry their text signature in the Rust docstring.

has_signature returns false for a bare FuncArgs argument, and a non-empty Rust
docstring of such a function is used as written.

Rename function/getargs.rs to function/legacy_args.rs. Add ArgSpec::bind,
which hands the kwlist slots to a closure in order through ArgSlots, and
reimplement parse and parse_with on top of it.

Move the checks FuncArgs::bind_for runs before converting (surplus
positional arguments, a keyword that fills a parameter given by position,
a missing required argument) into FromArgs::check_before_convert.

A #[derive(FromArgs)] struct marked #[from_args(legacy, fname = "...")]
overrides check_before_convert to do nothing and binds its fields through
ArgSpec::bind, converting each in kwlist order. PARAMS is generated as for
any other struct. The derive rejects positional-only and flatten fields, a
required field after an optional one, and a positional field after a
keyword-only one.

mmap.mmap, _functools._lru_cache_wrapper, _json.make_encoder,
_posixshmem.shm_open and the eight _winapi functions now take such structs
instead of FuncArgs or a slot_new override. The hand-written signature
docstrings and the has_signature and internal_doc_tokens changes are
reverted. _lru_cache_wrapper's text signature is now
(user_function, maxsize, typed, cache_info_type).

Do not count keyword-only parameters as positional slots.

If a derived binding declares #[pyarg(named)] key before #[pyarg(positional)] value, the valid call f(1, key=2) fails. This line advances pos for key, so the walk treats value as a missing second positional argument. A second positional argument exceeds the binding’s arity, leaving no valid way to call it. Track positional consumption separately from the declaration position used in error messages. The ordinary derive accepts this field order and binds the fields by their declared kinds.

@jseop-lim Thanks! I changed the default behavior to clinic as you suggested and elaborated the behavior a little bit more.

youknowdot added a commit to youknowdot/RustPython that referenced this pull request Nov 6, 2026
Use the check_before_convert hook added by RustPython#9513 instead of a separate duplicate-keyword policy in the binder and derive macros. Bind queue arguments into fixed tuples before invoking Clinic converters, removing the temporary parsed Vec and index unwraps while preserving error precedence and conversion order.
