os.name returns unicodes on py3 and we have pycompat.osname which returns
bytes. This series of 2 patches will change every ocurrence of os.name with
pycompat.osname.
Certain instances of os.sep has been converted to pycompat.ossep where it was
sure to use bytes only. There are more such instances which needs some more
attention and will get surely.
On Solaris, recvmsg() is provided by libsocket.so. We could try hard to look
for the library which provides 'recvmsg' symbol, but it would make little sense
now since recvfds() won't work anyway on Solaris. So this patch just disables
_recvmsg() on such platforms.
Thanks to FUJIWARA Katsunori for spotting this problem.
This is less portable than the C version, but PyPy can't load CPython
extensions. So for now, this will be used on PyPy.
I've tested it on Linux amd64 and Mac OS X.
This change treat the ESRCH error as ENOENT like WindowsError class
does in python 2.5 or later. Without this change, some try..execpt
code which expects errno is ENOENT may fail. Actually hg command does
not work with python 2.4 on Windows.
CreateFile() will fail with error code ESRCH
when parent directory of specified path is not exist,
or ENOENT when parent directory exist but file is not exist.
Two errors are same in the mean of "file is not exist".
So WindowsError class treats error code ESRCH as ENOENT
in python 2.5 or later, but python 2.4 does not.
Actual results with python 2.4:
>>> errno.ENOENT
2
>>> errno.ESRCH
3
>>> WindowsError(3, 'msg').errno
3
>>> WindowsError(3, 'msg').args
(3, 'msg')
And with python 2.5 (or later):
>>> errno.ENOENT
2
>>> errno.ESRCH
3
>>> WindowsError(3, 'msg').errno
2
>>> WindowsError(3, 'msg').args
(3, 'msg')
Note that there is no need to fix osutil.c because it never be used
with python 2.4.

Why is posixfile a class?
Because the implementation needs to use the Python library call os.fdopen [1],
which sets the 'name' attribute on the Python file object it creates to the
mostly meaningless string '<fdopen>', since file descriptors don't have a name.
But users of posixfile depend on the name attribute [2] being set to a proper
value, like Python's built-in 'open' function sets it on file objects.
Python file's name attribute is read-only, so we can't just assign to it after
the file object has alrady been created.
To solve this problem, we save the name of the file on a wrapper object,
and delegate the file function calls to the wrapped (private) file object
using __getattr__.

The posixfile_nt class has been superseded by posixfile in osutils.c,
which works on Windows NT and above. All other systems get the regular
python file class which is assigned to posixfile in posix.py (for POSIX)
and in the pure python version of osutils.py (for Win 9x or Windows NT
in pure mode).
