Summary

  • Root cause: The fake python3 shebang lacked -S, so under CBTS coverage its sitecustomize treated each fake process as a nested pytest and ran MPI_Init (~1.3 s each), overrunning the test's 1/5/15 s budgets.
  • Fix: Run the launcher test's python3 stand-in with -S so start-up hooks cannot initialize MPI; launcher path, budgets and assertions unchanged.
  • Original test: bash .repair-bot/reproduce/6911393-03d50f6535f5-1791845121186232629/tot/repro_driver.sh
  • Automated fix generated by repair-bot

Test plan

  • Verify fix on the same GPU type as the original failure
  • Check for regressions in related tests

Reproduction comparison

  • Failed commit: skipped_on_failed_commit
    Not run: the NVBug report states the failure ToT reproduced (TimeoutExpired: Command '['bash', '/code/tensorrt_llm/tensorrt_llm/llmapi/trtllm-llmapi-launch', ' 'task']' timed out after 15 seconds)
  • ToT: repro_on_tot at 03d50f6
    Signature: TimeoutExpired: Command '['bash', '/code/tensorrt_llm/tensorrt_llm/llmapi/trtllm-llmapi-launch', ' 'task']' timed out after 15 seconds
  • Signature relation: same (NVBug report vs. ToT signature; failed leg not run)

Dev Engineer Review

The python3 stand-in now runs with -S. This prevents site startup hooks from running in stand-in processes. The launcher path, time budgets, and assertions remain unchanged. No current review findings were supplied.

QA Engineer Review

One test file changed. The change does not add or modify test functions, IDs, selectors, or waivers. The test covers launcher supervision and shutdown behavior, including child processes and failure paths. The test is listed in tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/l0_cpu.yml. Test execution results were not supplied. Coverage verdict: needs follow-up to confirm the updated test passes in the target environment.

Per-File QA Perspective

  • tests/unittest/llmapi/test_mpi_launcher_shutdown.py: The test covers launcher supervision and shutdown behavior. Its python3 stand-in now skips site initialization, and the test is listed in the CI test list tests/integration/test_lists/test-db/l0_cpu.yml.

Walkthrough

The generated python3 stub in the MPI launcher shutdown test now uses -S. Nine related test entries were removed from the integration skip list.

…n with -S

The stand-in interpreter in test_mpi_launcher_shutdown.py ran with site
enabled, so under the CBTS post-merge environment every stand-in process
imported the coverage sitecustomize. Its substring check for "pytest"
matched the /tmp/pytest-of-* tmp_path, classified the stand-in as a nested
pytest and imported mpi4py, paying MPI_Init (~1.3 s) in each guard, payload
and task process. That pushed ten cases past their 1 s/5 s/15 s budgets.

The stand-in only uses the standard library and already re-executes guards
with -S, so starting it with -S keeps the launcher supervision path and all
assertions unchanged.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Pass -S to the descendant interpreter.

start_child() still launches sys.executable -c without -S. Under CBTS coverage, the inherited startup hook can initialize MPI or block before ready\n is printed. The timeout-free readline() then prevents the three newly unwaived shutdown tests from completing and can fail the coverage/integration workflow after the outer 15-second timeout.

Suggested fix
     child = subprocess.Popen([
-        sys.executable, "-c", child_code,
+        sys.executable, "-S", "-c", child_code,
     ], stdout=subprocess.PIPE, text=True)
