python3-setuptools: patch entrypoints for faster initialization
setuptools' pkg_resources module has major performance issues with how
it loads entry points (e.g. the console_script entry point, which sets
up a module as a command-line executable), leading even the simplest
"hello world" scripts to take on the order of 150ms to run if
pkg_resources is incorporated. This is prohibitive for code that needs
to run quickly, and so we patch setuptools to reduce this time. As of
Python 3.7, importlib.resources is available and intended to replace
much of the functionality that causes this sluggishness, but since
many projects still utilize the legacy setuptools modules, a patch is
still required. Note that python3-fastentrypoints (which is available
in the meta-virtualization layer) is also intended to help alleviate
the problem, but since it must be added to existing projects it has
the same disadvantage as resorting to importlib.resources, requiring
manual additions to existing code to see the performance gains.
The intent here is to patch easy_install to load module entry points
directly with the installed setuptools, rather than importing
pkg_resources and having it search out the entry points itself. This
leads to a drastic performance improvement - the changes in this patch
have been shown to result in load time ~6-8x lower, depending on the
complexity of the code it is tested with. A simple "hello world"
example on core-image-full-cmdline gave these results with and without
the patch:
core-image-full-cmdline, without setuptools ScriptWriter patch:
root@qemux86-64:~# time /usr/bin/minimal
hello world
real 0m0.198s
user 0m0.174s
sys 0m0.023s
core-image-full-cmdline, with setuptools ScriptWriter patch:
root@qemux86-64:~# time /usr/bin/minimal
hello world
real 0m0.034s
user 0m0.024s
sys 0m0.010s

4 | Subject: [PATCH] ScriptWriter: create more efficient /usr/bin wrappers | ||
5 | |||
6 | Upstream setuptools writes scripts to /usr/bin that do insanely much | ||
7 | stuff at runtime. https://github.com/pypa/setuptools/issues/510 | ||
8 | |||
9 | Since the script entry points are already known at build time, we can | ||
10 | just write those directly into the /usr/bin wrapper, avoiding the | ||
11 | expensive 'pkg_resources' import at runtime. The idea is from | ||
12 | https://github.com/ninjaaron/fast-entry_points but patched directly into | ||
13 | the native build of setuptools here, so that all Python modules under | ||
14 | bitbake automatically use it without needing additional build time | ||
15 | dependencies. | ||
