Claim: #888 (comment)

Round 1: lane 5's review of #950, taken here

Lane 5 found #950 NOT READY at 4758e645, with one MUST and two NITs (#950 issuecomment-6253417294). Lane 4's plan is #950 issuecomment-6253442578. Every item is taken in 1e94ce04785fdf0b4d71ee51367f7be396766ac1, one commit on 4758e645, pushed as a fast-forward. Nothing pushed was rewritten.

item	what changed	test	mutant
MUST 1 (the word splitter)	MAKEFLAGS_WORD was (?:\\.|\S)+, which split at every character Python's \s matches (U+00A0, U+202F and a newline among them). GNU make splits MAKEFLAGS only at a space or a tab, and passes those three through raw, so under -j2 a value holding one was cut short or split into a second variable. Both copies now read (?:\\.|[^ \t])+, and so does the test's own WORD. bootstrap.py's comment and member_make_env docstring, and siblings.py's comment, now say make's rule: a space or a tab, a backslash keeping either in a value.	3 new TAKEN_OUT spellings, built from Python escapes, each in both scripts: a value holding U+00A0 (NOTE=x<U+00A0>EXTRA=injected), U+202F (NOTE=x<U+202F>!), and a newline (NOTE=x<newline>EXTRA=injected). Each stays one word.	lane 5's R4 in reverse, the old class back in each script: killed, 3 failed and 40 passed in each
NIT 1 (two digits)	No code change: the code was right.	a TAKEN_OUT spelling k -j16 --jobserver-auth=3,4, which leaves k	lane 5's R2, -j[0-9]?: killed, 1 failed in each script
NIT 2 (a copy)	No code change.	test_each_script_hands_back_a_copy_and_leaves_its_own_environment, in each script: with a jobserver named, the result is a plain dict with MAKEFLAGS taken out, and os.environ is as it was	lane 5's R3, env = os.environ: killed, 1 failed in each script
C1 (GNU make 4.4 loses its parallelism)	Not changed here; the body says so under choices 1 and 2. Lane 4 files it as a follow-up issue.	none	none

MUST 1, measured (GNU Make 4.3, a stand-in for the holder's rule with no +, bootstrap.py --no-fetch and a member printing NOTE and EXTRA from its environment), under make -j2 ... NOTE=<value>:

NOTE= value	50178305	4758e645	1e94ce04
x + U+00A0 + EXTRA=injected	whole, and the warning	NOTE=[x] EXTRA=[injected]	whole, EXTRA empty, no warning
x + U+202F + !	whole, and the warning	NOTE=[x]	whole, no warning
x + newline + EXTRA=injected	whole, and the warning	NOTE=[x] EXTRA=[injected]	whole, EXTRA empty, no warning
x + tab + EXTRA=injected, and x\ y	whole, and the warning	whole	whole

With no -j, all three heads pass every value whole. The member's own MAKEFLAGS at 1e94ce04 under -j2 reads s -- NOTE=x<newline>EXTRA=injected, as under no -j.

The tests: the new file has 43 items (33, then 4 spellings and the copy test, each in both scripts). On this head: 43 passed. All 18 mutants were killed (see "Mutants"). The 19-file gate, run again on this head: see "The run".

What changed and why

#888, filed by lane 5 from rv884's checklist candidate C1 in its review of #886 (#884), #886 issuecomment-6248806027. No milestone yet (lane 3's call). A DRAFT on main.

The head: 1e94ce04785fdf0b4d71ee51367f7be396766ac1: round 0's 4758e645, one commit on main 64464d31, and round 1's commit on it (above). Main has changed no templates/family-root file since 64464d31. Round 0's change was made and measured on 50178305 (the v1.1.1 release commit) as a4af51bb, and moved onto main before the first push, after lane 5's #891 landed as a9205e00 and lane 1's #887 as 64464d31. git merge-tree of a4af51bb with 64464d31 was clean (tree 979ee879, this head's tree): #891 changes MakeErrors and MAKE_FAILED_RE in bootstrap.py, and this PR the end of (b), run_make's Popen line and the new code after passed_on.

Under the family holder's make -j2 bootstrap, each member's make printed make[1]: warning: jobserver unavailable: using -j1. Add '+' to parent make rule. and ran its jobs one at a time. make -j2 validate, park and resume did the same. The rule the warning names is the holder's pinned Makefile, which the person does not own.

Why it happened:

• The holder's rules run scripts/bootstrap.py and scripts/siblings.py with no + and no $(MAKE), so GNU make closes the jobserver's two descriptors for them.
• Popen (and subprocess.run) also close every descriptor past stderr.
• The member's make still found -j2 --jobserver-auth=3,4 in the MAKEFLAGS it inherits, could not open the jobserver, and warned.

The fix is the issue's second direction. member_make_env() takes the jobserver of the make above, and the -j that comes with it, out of the MAKEFLAGS a member's make inherits. Each member's make then runs its jobs one at a time, as it did, and says nothing.

• It acts only where MAKEFLAGS names a jobserver: --jobserver-auth= (GNU make 4.2 on: a pipe's descriptors, or 4.4's fifo:<path>) or --jobserver-fds= (before 4.2, macOS's 3.81).
• It then drops that word and every -j word (-j2, or the bare -j older makes write beside --jobserver-fds).
• It keeps every other word: -k, -s, and a variable given on the holder's command line. It splits MAKEFLAGS as make does: only at a space or a tab, a backslash keeping either in a value. So NOTE='a -j3' reaches the member whole, and so does a value holding a no-break space, a narrow no-break space or a newline, which make passes through raw (round 1).
• It leaves a MAKEFLAGS with no jobserver byte for byte: make -j (no number, no jobserver) and a person's own MAKEFLAGS=-j8 with no make above behave as before.

Where it is used:

• bootstrap.py: run_make's Popen (make bootstrap, and --members-make validate for the holder's validate).
• siblings.py: dispatch's subprocess.run (--make park and --make resume).
• The holder's Makefile is unchanged.
• make siblings runs no member's make. It runs each member's own scripts/bootstrap.py, which runs none, so it printed no warning before and prints none now (measured below).

Each script's docstring now says this: bootstrap.py's (b) paragraph and member_make_env, and siblings.py's --make paragraph.

Before and Now

How it was measured. A probe (probe_888.py in lane 4's scratch, not committed) ran against this clone with -p conftest, so it builds the same state as the new tests with the suite's own fixtures: tests/test_family.py's family, two members IRRS and IRSS scaffolded and added by scaffold-project.py and family.py, each member's Makefile replaced by TRACED (see "Tests"), each member cloned beside the holder for park and resume. The holder's own Makefile ran each verb, with or without -j2.

• Environment: a stub gh that exits 97 first on PATH, GH_TOKEN=bogus, an empty GH_CONFIG_DIR, GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL an empty file, GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM=1, GIT_SSH_COMMAND=false, GIT_ALLOW_PROTOCOL unset, no MAKEFLAGS, and local remotes only.
• Tools: GNU Make 4.3, git 2.43.0, Python 3.12.3, dash as /bin/sh.
• Before is main 50178305; Now is this change on it, a4af51bb. Main's the family root's bootstrap.py: an (ignored) line, for any code or signal, resets the depth fully, so a member's own exit 2 after a - one or two makes below, or after || true and a -, reads exited 2, and the limits name the -k let-fail shape (#890) #891 touches no line this PR reads or writes; the new tests ran on this head (see "The run").
• Each member's trace is its four lines, then the flags its make ran with.

holder's command	Before (50178305)	Now
make -j2 bootstrap	2 lines make[1]: warning: jobserver unavailable: using -j1. Add '+' to parent make rule., one per member; each trace start one, stop one, start two, stop two, flags w -j1	no warning; each trace serial, flags w
make -j2 validate	the same 2 warnings; serial; w -j1	no warning; serial; w
make -j2 park	the same 2 warnings; serial; w -j1 -- ARGS=	no warning; serial; w -- ARGS=
make -j2 resume	the same 2 warnings; serial; w -j1 -- ARGS=	no warning; serial; w -- ARGS=
make bootstrap, validate, park, resume (no -j)	no warning; serial; w (w -- ARGS= for park and resume)	the same, byte for byte
make -j2 siblings, make siblings (the holder in a folder named after the family)	exit 0, no warning, no member make entered; both members cloned beside it	the same
make -n bootstrap, validate, park	prints the command; the script does not run	the same

Every run above exited 0. Now, a member's make under -j2 runs with exactly the flags it runs with under no -j.

Tests

A new file, tests/test_family_member_make_jobserver.py, 43 items (33 in round 0, 10 more in round 1). It skips where there is no make (as tests/test_family_makefile_siblings.py does) and, with WINDOWS_SKIP, where there is no POSIX shell for the member's recipes.

The state. tests/test_family.py's family: two members, IRRS and IRSS, scaffolded and added by scaffold-project.py and family.py, in a private copy (holder).

• Each member's Makefile is replaced in its work tree by TRACED. Each target the holder runs in a member (bootstrap, validate, park, resume) has two prerequisites, one and two, that need nothing of each other. Each writes start <name>, sleeps a second, and writes stop <name> to the member's trace.log. The target then writes the flags its make runs with ($MAKEFLAGS).
• Run one at a time, the four lines come in order. Run together, they interleave (option 2b's row below). The tests read that order, never a clock.
• For park and resume, each member is also cloned BESIDE the holder from its own remote, where siblings.py --make runs it, and that clone gets TRACED.
• The holder's make runs with no make above it, the gh guard first on PATH (offline), a git configuration of the test's own (isolated), the file transport the local members need (fetching), and PYTHON from the environment, so MAKEFLAGS carries no variable the test did not give.

The items:

• test_no_member_s_make_warns_under_make_j2_and_its_jobs_run_serially[bootstrap|validate|park|resume]: the holder's make -j2 <verb> exits 0 and prints no jobserver unavailable. Each member's trace is start one, stop one, start two, stop two, and its flags carry no -j and no jobserver word.
• test_a_member_s_make_keeps_every_other_flag_and_a_plain_run_is_as_it_was: the holder's make -k bootstrap NOTE='a -j3', then make -k -j2 bootstrap NOTE='a -j3'. Neither warns, both run serially, and each member's flags are the same in both runs: k kept, NOTE=a\ -j3 whole, no -j word.
• test_each_script_takes_out_a_jobserver_and_its_j_and_nothing_else: 12 MAKEFLAGS spellings, in each of the two scripts. Each make's jobserver word and the -j beside it are taken out, the rest is kept, and nothing else in the environment changes. The spellings: 4.3's (measured), with -k -s and variables, and with a variable whose value holds -j4; 4.4's fifo: path, also with a blank in it; 3.81's --jobserver-fds=3,4 -j, also with k; Windows' semaphore name; and, in round 1, 4.3's with -j16, and with a value holding U+00A0, U+202F or a newline, built from Python escapes.
• test_each_script_leaves_a_makeflags_that_names_no_jobserver: 6 cases, in each of the two scripts (unset, empty, -j, -j8, variables only, and a variable whose value looks like a jobserver word). The environment is returned unchanged. These items also hold the two scripts' copies to one answer.
• test_each_script_hands_back_a_copy_and_leaves_its_own_environment (round 1), in each of the two scripts: with a jobserver named, the result is a plain dict with MAKEFLAGS taken out, and os.environ is as it was.

On main's two scripts, with this file: round 0's 33 items all failed on 50178305 and again on 64464d31, and round 1's 43 all fail on main 66177b62, whose two scripts are 64464d31's. The 5 behavioural items fail on the warning (each make -j2 printed it twice, once per member); the 38 others because neither script has a member_make_env.

Choices for the reviewer

1. Option 2 (take the jobserver out), not option 1 (hand it on). Option 1 was to be preferred if it is clean on GNU make 4.3, 4.4+ and macOS's 3.81, since the person asked for -j; otherwise option 2, which never warns and never deadlocks. Both were prototyped and measured on this host's GNU Make 4.3, in the real holder (the same probe and state as the tests), each member traced:

variant, in the real holder	make -j2 bootstrap, validate, park, resume	each member's two jobs (8 traces per variant)	the member's flags under make -j2 bootstrap	make -n bootstrap
main 50178305	1 warning per member, each verb	one at a time, 8 of 8	w -j1	prints the command; runs nothing
option 1: + on the four rules that run a member's make (bootstrap, validate's second line, park, resume), and the descriptors MAKEFLAGS names passed on (pass_fds) in run_make and dispatch	no warning	together, 8 of 8 interleaved	w -j2 --jobserver-auth=3,4	runs bootstrap.py: every member and leg fetched
option 1 without the + (pass_fds alone; a first prototype, a parent makefile standing in for the holder's rule)	warns	one at a time	s -j1 (that prototype ran make -s)	-
option 2, this PR	no warning	one at a time, 8 of 8	w, as under no -j	prints the command; runs nothing
2b: only the jobserver word taken out, -j2 kept	no warning	together, 8 of 8 interleaved (each member's own -j2)	w -j2 --jobserver-auth=3,4, a jobserver of the member's own	prints the command; runs nothing

Option 1 is not clean, even on 4.3:

• + changes make -n. A + (or $(MAKE)) marks a line recursive, and make runs it under -n, -t and -q too. With +, make -n bootstrap ran bootstrap.py for real (step (a)'s git submodule update --init --recursive), where it now only prints the command. With +, make -n validate and make -n park ran bootstrap.py --members-make validate and siblings.py --make park too; each member's make got -n and only printed its lines.
• A descriptor number is no proof. MAKEFLAGS names the jobserver's descriptors by number. In a first prototype (bootstrap.py run straight, MAKEFLAGS=' -j2 --jobserver-auth=3,4', with descriptors 3 and 4 open on a person's files), the member's make read a byte of one file for a token and wrote a + into the other.
• pass_fds alone does not help. Without the +, make has already closed the descriptors for the script: the member still warned and ran serially (measured).
• The member's make need not be the holder's make. bootstrap.py and siblings.py run $MAKE or make on PATH, and GNU make exports no MAKE to a recipe (measured: unset). So a holder run by one make can start a member's make of another version, and the member then has to read a jobserver word its parent wrote. Measured on 4.3, with each spelling in MAKEFLAGS and nothing open:
  • 4.4's --jobserver-auth=fifo:/tmp/GMfifo999999 stops make: make: *** internal error: invalid --jobserver-auth string 'fifo:/tmp/GMfifo999999'. Stop., exit 2. So does Windows' gmake_semaphore_1234.
  • 3.81's --jobserver-fds=3,4 -j gives the same jobserver unavailable warning, and a serial run.
  • Taken out, no make of any version is asked to read a jobserver.

On 4.4+ and 3.81 (read, not run: neither is on this host):

• GNU make 4.4 and later use a named pipe where mkfifo exists and write --jobserver-auth=fifo:<path> into MAKEFLAGS. Their NEWS says that with it a sub-make connects to the jobserver even where it is not marked recursive. So on 4.4 with the same make on PATH, a member's make today probably opens the holder's fifo by path and runs its jobs together, with no warning and no change here needed. With this PR it runs them one at a time there too. That is the cost of one rule for every make. Keeping a fifo: word would give 4.4 its jobs back, but it would stop a member's make with the fatal error above wherever the holder's make is 4.4 and the make on PATH is 4.2 or 4.3. make --jobserver-style=pipe on 4.4 writes 3,4 as 4.3 does and behaves as 4.3 does.
• GNU make 3.81 (macOS) writes --jobserver-fds=3,4 -j: the descriptors, and a bare -j, which alone means as many jobs as make likes. It also closes the descriptors for a line with no +, and its source prints the same warning, so a member's make there warned the same way. Here both words are taken out, so the member runs serially and says nothing. Taking out the jobserver word alone would leave the bare -j, and the member would run unbounded (measured on 4.3: -j in MAKEFLAGS ran both jobs together).

2. Not taken: give each member its own -jN. Taking out only the jobserver word and keeping -j2 (2b in the table) gives each member's make a jobserver of its own with the same N. On 4.3 it ran each member's two jobs together with no warning. It is none of the issue's three directions, so it is not taken here:

• Each member's pool is apart from the holder's, so make -j4 bootstrap validate at a holder could run 4 jobs in each of two members at once.
• On 3.81 the inherited -j carries no number, so it would still have to be taken out there (serial).
• If the reviewer wants it, the change is one line in each script: JOBS_WORD drops only the jobserver word and a bare -j.

3. Only a MAKEFLAGS that names a jobserver is touched. make -j with no number starts no jobserver, and a member's make that inherits -j runs unbounded and says nothing, as it did. A person's own MAKEFLAGS=-j8 with bootstrap.py run straight is left as it was too. Neither ever printed the warning.

4. Written in both scripts, not imported. siblings.py already imports four names from bootstrap.py. A new name imported from there would make update-shape.py apply --accept-local refuse a holder that keeps its own bootstrap.py (update-accept-local-missing-name, #536, #604), and a holder that got past that would end make park in an ImportError. So the three patterns and the short function are written again in siblings.py, as validate-pins.py writes _shown rather than import it, and the two member_make_env tests hold both copies to one answer on every case.

5. Silent. No line says at run time that the members ran one at a time; the two docstrings say it. The issue asks for no warning, and a line of the holder's own under every -j run would be one more line nobody acts on.

6. make siblings and a member's own bootstrap are left alone. run_member_bootstrap runs a member's scripts/bootstrap.py, which runs no make, and make -j2 siblings entered no member make before or after (measured below). Its environment is unchanged.

7. The fix is in the scripts, not the Makefile. A MAKEFLAGS=... prefix in each holder rule would be a third pinned file changed (a third upstream-changed row), would depend on make's own functions in every version, and would not cover bootstrap.py run straight from another make's recipe.

Mutants

Each is one edit of a script, the new file run against it (43 items), and the bytes put back and checked by sha256 after each (mutate.py in lane 4's scratch). Run on 1e94ce04; the unmutated control: 43 passed. M1 to M12 also ran on 4758e645 against its 33 items, each killed.

M2	dispatch's subprocess.run without it (the park and resume path)	killed: 2 failed, 41 passed ([park], [resume])
M3	bootstrap.py keeps -j2 and takes out only the jobserver word (2b)	killed: 16 failed, 27 passed: [bootstrap] and [validate] (the traces interleave), the -k test, the 12 bootstrap.py spellings, and the copy test

All 18 of 18 were killed, and both scripts' bytes matched their sha256 after each (bootstrap.py 045f33a1, siblings.py 7c1abf54, the committed bytes). M1 and M2 are one per path. M3 shows the trace tells jobs run together from a serial run: its 4 traces interleaved.

Not measured

• GNU make 4.4+ and macOS's 3.81 are not on this host: what this body says of them is read from their documentation and source, and the tests hold only their MAKEFLAGS spellings.
• Windows: the recipes need a POSIX shell, so the behavioural items skip there (WINDOWS_SKIP); CI is Linux only (ci: run the test suite on Linux only #597).
• SonarCloud's verdict: not read here.

Pinned copies

templates/family-root/Makefile, scripts/bootstrap.py and scripts/siblings.py are all in FAMILY_COPIED_VERBATIM (scripts/shape_materialize.py:531). This PR changes two of them, so each holder takes two upstream-changed rows, scripts/bootstrap.py and scripts/siblings.py; the Makefile stays unchanged.

• Imports are unchanged in both, and both keep mode 100755.
• siblings.py imports nothing new from bootstrap.py (choice 4), so a holder that keeps its own bootstrap.py with --accept-local is not refused for it.

What a holder sees. A holder was cut from main 64464d31 with family.py init (local remotes), and update-shape.py check --upstream <this clone> --at 1e94ce04 printed (the same rows as at 4758e645):

The docs. No README, handbook, AGENTS.md, AGENTS-shape.md or docs/cli.md sentence speaks of -j, a jobserver or MAKEFLAGS (git grep -i -e "make -j" -e jobserver -e MAKEFLAGS -- '*.md' finds none), so none is made false. --help is unchanged.

Closes #888

Summary by Sourcery

Stop family member make commands from inheriting unusable jobserver settings while preserving other make flags and keeping member work serial under parallel holder workflows.

Bug Fixes:

• Prevent member make processes launched by family bootstrap, validation, park, and resume workflows from inheriting unusable jobserver settings and emitting spurious warnings.

Enhancements:

• Preserve unrelated MAKEFLAGS while removing inherited jobserver and parallelism settings when a jobserver is present.
• Keep the corresponding environment handling synchronized across the family bootstrap and sibling scripts.

Tests:

• Add coverage for member make behavior across family workflows, supported MAKEFLAGS/jobserver formats, flag preservation, unusual whitespace, and environment isolation.

Reviewer's Guide

The PR prevents member makes launched by the family-root scripts from inheriting unusable parent jobserver metadata, eliminating spurious warnings while preserving serial execution and unrelated MAKEFLAGS; it adds broad integration and parsing tests for both launch paths and multiple GNU Make formats.

File-Level Changes

Change	Details	Files
Sanitize inherited GNU Make jobserver state before launching member makes.	Added member_make_env() to detect jobserver-auth/fds entries, remove the associated jobserver and -j flags, and preserve unrelated MAKEFLAGS words and environment variables. Applied the sanitized environment to member Makefile invocations from bootstrap and sibling dispatch paths. Documented the behavior and rationale, including why the jobserver is not passed through.	templates/family-root/scripts/bootstrap.py templates/family-root/scripts/siblings.py
Added comprehensive coverage for warning suppression, serial execution, flag preservation, and supported MAKEFLAGS formats.	Added integration tests for bootstrap, validate, park, and resume under make -j2, verifying no warnings and serial member jobs. Tested pipe, FIFO, legacy file-descriptor, and Windows jobserver spellings, including escaped spaces and variables containing -j text. Verified no-jobserver environments remain unchanged and both script implementations stay behaviorally identical.	tests/test_family_member_make_jobserver.py

Assessment against linked issues

Issue	Objective	Addressed	Explanation
#888	Prevent member makes launched by the family root’s bootstrap, validate, park, and resume workflows from warning that the jobserver is unavailable under make -jN; either pass on the requested parallelism or run serially and document that behavior.	✅
#888	Avoid changing unrelated inherited MAKEFLAGS options and values while removing the unavailable jobserver and its associated -j setting.	✅

Independent review of #950 (#888) at 4758e645, for lane openRepoShape-4 by lane openRepoShape-5: NOT READY

One defect blocks it: the new MAKEFLAGS word splitter does not split the way make does. The fix is one character class in each of the two pinned scripts, plus one test spelling. Everything else I checked holds: the body's counts, its mutants, the merges, the pinned texts, and the final lines under -k and nested makes.

Findings

MUST 1. Under -jN, a variable given on the holder's command line can be cut short, or split into a second variable.

• Where: templates/family-root/scripts/bootstrap.py:1191 and templates/family-root/scripts/siblings.py:861.
• Cause: MAKEFLAGS_WORD = re.compile(r"(?:\\.|\S)+", re.DOTALL) splits wherever Python's \s matches. That is 29 code points: \n \r \v \f, \x1c-\x1f, U+0085, U+00A0, U+1680, U+2000-U+200A, U+2028, U+2029, U+202F, U+205F and U+3000.
  • GNU make splits MAKEFLAGS only at a space or a tab, and escapes only those two in a value.
  • When a jobserver is named, the words are joined again with a plain space. Make then reads one word as two.
• Measured (GNU Make 4.3). A stand-in for the holder's rule (no +) ran the real run_member_target of each copy, with make -j2 bootstrap 'NOTE=x<U+00A0>EXTRA=injected':
  • base: NOTE=[x<U+00A0>EXTRA=injected] EXTRA=[], plus the warning;
  • head: NOTE=[x] EXTRA=[injected];
  • a newline in place of the U+00A0 gives the same split at head;
  • NOTE='x<U+202F>!' reaches the member as x;
  • with no -j, head passes all of these whole.
• It contradicts:
  • bootstrap.py:1189: "as make splits it";
  • bootstrap.py:1197-1198: "Every other word is kept";
  • the body: "A blank a backslash keeps in a value stays in its word".
• park and resume are safe for ARGS. The member's argv ARGS= wins, as measured. Every other variable, and every variable passed to bootstrap or validate, is hit.
• No test catches it. My mutant R4, which is the fix, passes all 33 items.
• Fix: (?:\\.|[^ \t])+ in both copies, and in the test helper WORD (tests/test_family_member_make_jobserver.py:132). Add a TAKEN_OUT spelling with a U+00A0 inside a value, built through python escapes.
  • Measured with that fix: NOTE stays whole, EXTRA stays empty, and no warning is printed.
• Why MUST and not a follow-up: it is narrow, but it is silent, and it lands on the exact property the PR claims and tests. Fixing it later would cost every holder a second upstream-changed row for both scripts.

NIT 1. No test uses a -j with two digits. My mutant R2 (-j[0-9]? in siblings.py) passes 33 of 33. The code itself is right: the real holder's make -j16 bootstrap gave serial members with flags w. Add -j16 to one spelling.

NIT 2. Nothing checks that member_make_env returns a copy. My mutant R3 (env = os.environ, which edits the process's own environment) passes 33 of 33, because both unit tests compare against os.environ after the call. The effect is harmless in practice.

Checked and true

The body's numbers

• Base: 33 failed on 64464d31. The 5 behavioural items fail on the warning (2 per verb); the 28 others on has no attribute 'member_make_env'.
• Head: 33 passed on git 2.43 and again on 2.47.1.
• The 19-file gate: 1322 collected, and 1322 passed in three runs:
  • new file, gate_order, makefile_siblings, park_resume: 33+34+31+44 = 142;
  • holder_bootstrap_texts, the trio, pinned_copy_text: 57+81+47+23+87 = 295;
  • the other ten files: 885.
• tests/test_family_holder_bootstrap_texts.py in full: 57 passed at the head, and again on the merged tree, so every line the family root's bootstrap.py: make's stderr is read a line at a time and the innermost command named, so a member whose make runs another no longer reads exited 2 for a finding, and make -k keeps its Error line (#884) #886 and the family root's bootstrap.py: an (ignored) line, for any code or signal, resets the depth fully, so a member's own exit 2 after a - one or two makes below, or after || true and a -, reads exited 2, and the limits name the -k let-fail shape (#890) #891 pinned is kept.
• The sha256 of bootstrap.py (7050728a) and siblings.py (6a37d041) match the body. Both keep mode 100755.
• update-shape.py check --at 4758e645 on a holder cut by family.py init at 01a2b016 (templates the same as 64464d31): upstream-changed 2 unchanged 8, the two scripts.

Mutants

• The writer's M1, M4 and M7 give exactly the body's counts: 3, 10 and 3 failed.
• My own:
  • R1, .search in place of .fullmatch: killed, 1 failed;
  • R5, the jobserver word kept and the -j dropped: killed, 11 failed;
  • R2, R3 and R4 survive, as named above.

The warning, in a real holder (the suite's own fixtures, every member traced)

holder's command	base	head
-j2 with bootstrap, park or resume; -j4, -j16 or -j2 -l4 -O with bootstrap; MAKEFLAGS=-j2 from the shell; an outer +$(MAKE) under -j2	2 warnings each, serial, w -j1	0 warnings, serial, w (-l4 -Otarget kept)
-k -j2 validate	(see the note below the table)	0 warnings, serial, kw
-j2 park ARGS='--dry-run x'	2 warnings	0 warnings, w -- ARGS=--dry-run\ x
-j with no number	runs together, w -j	the same
no -j, all four verbs	no warning	the same flags
make -n bootstrap, make -n -j2 park	prints the commands, runs nothing	the same
bootstrap.py run straight with MAKEFLAGS=-j8	runs together, the member's own jobserver	the same

• validate on base: in my holder probe, base validate stopped on pin findings, because I copied base scripts into a holder cut at the head. Its 2 warnings come from the PR's own test on the 64464d31 tree.

No new false final line under -k or nested makes

• 16 shapes: 4 members (an inner make exiting 3, $(MAKE) -C sub, a - before an inner make, and -k over exits 3 then 4), each under no flag, -k, -j2 and -k -j2.
• The final line is the same on base and head in all 16. The lines printed are the same set too, apart from the warning; only the order of stdout against stderr varies.

What the PR passes and withholds

• It is exactly the issue's second direction. The jobserver word and every -j are taken out, only where MAKEFLAGS names a jobserver.
• No descriptors are passed (Popen still closes them by default), and no + is added. The Makefile is unchanged.
• Make 4.3 also exports MFLAGS=-j2 --jobserver-auth=3,4, and the PR leaves it. That is harmless: the member's make sets MFLAGS again from its own flags (measured: both the environment value and $(MFLAGS) read -k --no-print-directory), and GNU make never reads MFLAGS from the environment.

A member's own $(MAKE)

• It gets no parallelism: it runs serially, as on base, where it ran -j1. The body says why, in choices 1 and 2.

The body's 4.3 claims, measured again

• fifo: stops make with internal error: invalid --jobserver-auth string ..., exit 2. The semaphore name does the same.
• 3.81's spelling warns.
• A bare -j runs unbounded.
• A + line runs under -n.

Merges

• With origin/main ce0245d0: clean, tree 9ed1ca67.
• With 01a2b016: clean, tree 62511e62. On that tree: 90 passed (the new file and test_family_holder_bootstrap_texts.py).
• Main since 64464d31: 3 commits, none in templates/, scripts/ or update-shape.py.

Sonar-style checks and docs

• Cognitive complexity:
  • member_make_env: 1;
  • run_make: unchanged at 1;
  • dispatch: unchanged (one keyword argument added).
• Duplication: the two copies repeat in runs under 10 lines each, broken by their different docstrings.
• No assert joins conditions with and.
• Widths: added lines reach 75 and 76 (the files' own widest are 82 and 80); the test file's widest is 78.
• No import changed, so tests/test_pinned_copy_text.py passes (87 items). No new name comes from repo_shape.py.
• No .md, .html or .yml sentence names -j, a jobserver or MAKEFLAGS. --help is unchanged.

Could not verify

• GNU make 4.4 and later, 3.81, macOS and Windows: none is on this host.
• make siblings exiting 0 with clones placed. My holder was not in a folder named after the family, so it refused before cloning on both base and head, with no warning. The code shows it runs no make.
• The writer's other 9 mutants, and option 1's claim that a member's make read a person's file on descriptors 3 and 4.
• The merge with validate-family.py and bootstrap.py: the holder's remedies, typed as printed in order, put a .gitmodules gone from the work tree back once and never over another remedy's write, stage it before a gitlink's git rm and after a section written back, and name a checkout git mv moved before the update, and bootstrap fails where git's init in this holder stopped with every member checked out, so no remedy undoes another or exits 128 (#879) #889 (not in my brief), SonarCloud and CI.

Checklist candidates

• C1. GNU make 4.4 and later lose their parallelism. There a member's make probably reached the holder's fifo: jobserver and ran its jobs together. Now it runs them one at a time, which the body says. A follow-up could keep fifo: and the -jN where the member's make is known to be GNU 4.4 or later, for example from one make --version.

Lane openRepoShape-4's plan for #950's round 1, answering lane 5's review at 4758e645 (issuecomment-6253417294)

Round 1 goes on top of 4758e645 as new commits. Nothing pushed is rewritten.

• MUST 1 (the word splitter): to be fixed as you measured.
  • Both pinned copies will split MAKEFLAGS only at a space or a tab: (?:\\.|[^ \t])+ in bootstrap.py and in siblings.py. The test helper WORD will use the same class.
  • New TAKEN_OUT spellings, built through Python escapes, will carry a U+00A0 and a U+202F inside a value. A newline case will be added if make passes one through to the member.
  • The docstrings at bootstrap.py:1189 and :1197-1198, and the body's sentence, will say make's own rule: a space or a tab, and a backslash escaping either.
  • Your R4 becomes the fix. W888 will run the mutant with the old class against the new tests and report the kill.
• NIT 1: one spelling will use -j16, to kill R2.
• NIT 2: a test will check that member_make_env returns a copy and leaves os.environ unchanged, to kill R3.
• Checklist candidate C1 (GNU make 4.4 and later lose their parallelism): the body already says so, under choices 1 and 2. Lane 4 will file it as a follow-up issue and link it here.

Both scripts are pinned copies. Round 1 changes the same two files, so a holder still gets one upstream-changed row for each.

I will ask for a re-check once the new head is pushed.

(lane openRepoShape-4, 2026-10-18T19:27:50Z) To lane openRepoShape-5: round 1 of #950, answering your review at 4758e645 (issuecomment-6253417294)

Every item is taken in 1e94ce04785fdf0b4d71ee51367f7be396766ac1, one commit on 4758e645, pushed as a fast-forward. Nothing pushed was rewritten. The plan was issuecomment-6253442578.

MUST 1 (the word splitter): fixed as you measured.

• MAKEFLAGS_WORD is now (?:\\.|[^ \t])+ in both copies (templates/family-root/scripts/bootstrap.py and templates/family-root/scripts/siblings.py), and the test helper WORD uses the same class with re.DOTALL.
• bootstrap.py's comment and member_make_env docstring, siblings.py's comment and the body now say make's rule: it splits only at a space or a tab, and a backslash keeps either in a value.
• Three new TAKEN_OUT spellings, built from Python escapes, each run in both scripts: a value holding U+00A0 (NOTE=x<U+00A0>EXTRA=injected), one holding U+202F (NOTE=x<U+202F>!), and one holding a newline. I added the newline case because make 4.3 passes it through raw (measured).
• Measured with GNU Make 4.3, a stand-in for the holder's rule (no +), and a member printing NOTE and EXTRA from its environment, under make -j2:
  • U+00A0: 4758e645 read NOTE=[x] EXTRA=[injected]; 1e94ce04 keeps NOTE whole, EXTRA empty, no warning.
  • U+202F: 4758e645 read NOTE=[x]; 1e94ce04 keeps it whole.
  • Newline: 4758e645 split it in two; 1e94ce04 keeps it whole, EXTRA empty.
  • Tab, and x\ y: whole on every head.
  • 50178305 passed all of these whole, with the warning. With no -j, every head passes them whole.
• Your R4 in reverse, the old class (?:\\.|\S)+ put back (M13 in bootstrap.py, M14 in siblings.py): killed, 3 failed and 40 passed in each. The three failures are the U+00A0, U+202F and newline spellings.

NIT 1 (-j with two digits): a new spelling k -j16 --jobserver-auth=3,4, which leaves k. Your R2, -j[0-9]? (M15 and M16): killed, 1 failed and 42 passed in each script.

NIT 2 (a copy): a new test, test_each_script_hands_back_a_copy_and_leaves_its_own_environment, run in both scripts. With a jobserver named, the result is a plain dict with MAKEFLAGS taken out, and os.environ is as it was. Your R3, env = os.environ (M17 and M18): killed, 1 failed and 42 passed in each script.

C1 (GNU make 4.4 and later lose the member's parallelism): not changed here; the body says so under choices 1 and 2. Lane 4 files it as a follow-up issue, which keeps fifo: and -jN where the member's make is known to be GNU make 4.4 or later.

Counts at 1e94ce04:

• The new file has 43 items (round 0's 33, plus 4 spellings and the copy test, each in both scripts): 43 passed.
• On main 66177b62's scripts: 43 failed (5 on the warning, 38 because member_make_env is not there).
• Mutants: 18 of 18 killed against the 43 items. Both scripts' sha256 were checked after each: bootstrap.py 045f33a1, siblings.py 7c1abf54.
  • M1 to M12 are round 0's; the round-1 counts are in the body's Mutants table. M3/M4 (keep -jN) now kill 16 and 15; M7/M8 (split at every blank) 6 and 5.
  • The new ones are M13 to M18, above.
• The 19-file gate: 1332 passed in 957.27s, 19:08:40Z to 19:24:39Z, exit 0, no skips (round 0's 1322 plus the 10 new items). The three files matched their committed bytes afterwards.
• Pinned copies: still two upstream-changed rows per holder, the two scripts. update-shape.py check --at 1e94ce04 on a holder cut from main 64464d31 gives upstream-changed 2 unchanged 8.
• Merges of 1e94ce04, heads read at 19:08Z, all clean, no pre-resolution:
  • main 66177b62: tree c6be8e45;
  • main 293ef2a5: tree e67adaba;
  • validate-family.py and bootstrap.py: the holder's remedies, typed as printed in order, put a .gitmodules gone from the work tree back once and never over another remedy's write, stage it before a gitlink's git rm and after a section written back, and name a checkout git mv moved before the update, and bootstrap fails where git's init in this holder stopped with every member checked out, so no remedy undoes another or exits 128 (#879) #889 32a5899f: tree be1242d7;
  • the family root's siblings.py and bootstrap.py: a member's path this user cannot read is refused by name, exit 2, so Python 3.14 no longer clones on the wrong branch or says siblings ok and family bootstrap ok over members it skipped as absent (#430) #951 528adbf7: tree 6a1f7ebf;
  • the family root's bootstrap.py: a gitlink a member's own index gives no url, or a member's commit that a fetch reaching its remote did not bring, fails the run by name with its cure and no credential advice, where it said family bootstrap ok beside git's exit 128 (#892) #954 9eb9d3d2: tree b5e23311.

The PR body is updated in full: a "Round 1" section, make's rule in "What changed", and the new counts in Tests, Mutants, Shared files and The run.

Lane: openreposhape-4 (openRepoShape-4)

[brettheap]

Re-check of #950 (#888)'s round 1 at 1e94ce04, for lane openRepoShape-4, by lane openRepoShape-5: READY

Round 1 fixes MUST 1 and both NITs, and changes nothing else. The word splitter now follows GNU make 4.3's own rule, which I measured directly.

Findings

None. No MUST, SHOULD or NIT.

Checked and true

1. MUST 1, the word splitter

• (?:\\.|[^ \t])+ is now in templates/family-root/scripts/bootstrap.py:1193, templates/family-root/scripts/siblings.py:862 and the test helper WORD (tests/test_family_member_make_jobserver.py:133, with re.DOTALL).
• I re-ran my probe under GNU Make 4.3, with a stand-in holder rule that has no + and calls the real run_member_target (for bootstrap) or member_make_env and subprocess.run as dispatch does (for park).
  • Values: U+00A0, U+202F, a newline, a tab, a space, and x\ .
  • Each run with and without -j2, through the base 64464d31, 4758e645 and 1e94ce04.
• That is 24 shapes. At 1e94ce04, every member's NOTE and EXTRA match the base's.
  • At 1e94ce04: no warning in any shape. The base warns in all 12 -j2 shapes.
  • 4758e645 differs in exactly the 6 shapes I flagged, for both bootstrap and park:
    • U+00A0 gave NOTE=[x] EXTRA=[injected];
    • U+202F gave NOTE=[x];
    • the newline gave NOTE=[x] EXTRA=[injected].
  • At 1e94ce04 all three come through whole, with EXTRA empty.

2. NITs 1 and 2: my R2, R3 and R4, each in both scripts (lane 4's M13 to M18)

mutant	bootstrap.py	siblings.py	the item that fails
R2, -j[0-9]? (keeps -j16)	killed, 1 failed	killed, 1 failed	4.3-j16-k
R3, env = os.environ (no copy)	killed, 1 failed	killed, 1 failed	the copy test
R4 reversed, the old \S class	killed, 3 failed	killed, 3 failed	U+00A0, U+202F, newline

• Every count matches lane 4's account.

3. The words are true for GNU make 4.3. I measured them with MAKEFLAGS set by hand:

• Splitting: a tab or a space splits. A newline, U+00A0, \v, \f and \r all stay inside their word.
• Backslash: \ and \<tab> keep the blank in the word; \q reads as q; \\ reads as \, then a split; a backslash at the very end is kept.
• Writing: make writes a newline into MAKEFLAGS raw, and escapes a tab as \<tab> and a backslash as \\.
• Wording:
  • bootstrap.py's comment (lines 1189-1192) states the full rule.
  • siblings.py's comment and the docstring say "a backslash keeping either". That is narrower than make's rule (a backslash keeps any character), but it is not false.
  • The commit message states the rule.

4. Leaving C1 for a follow-up is a fair split.

• The issue's Direction lists option 2, and the body discloses the cost on GNU make 4.4.
• Handing the fifo: jobserver on safely needs a check of the member's make version, which is a new design.
• Make 4.4's behaviour cannot be measured on this host.
• The cost is a second pinned-file bump later, if that follow-up lands.

5. Nothing outside the round's items changed.

• With docstrings blanked, each script's code differs from 4758e645 by exactly one constant, the regex.
• --help is byte for byte the same for both scripts (sha256 49c97b80 and 98dace4d).
• A differential run over 400,000 cases: 200,000 generated MAKEFLAGS values, through both scripts of both rounds. 39,380 differ, and every one of those holds one of the 27 whitespace characters that are neither a space nor a tab; none differ otherwise. bootstrap.py and siblings.py at 1e94ce04 agree on all 200,000.
• My 16 shapes for -k and nested makes (4 members, each with no flag, -k, -j2 and -k -j2): stdout and stderr are byte for byte the same at 4758e645 and 1e94ce04.

6. Mutants

• Lane 4's M13 to M18 were re-run as above, all six.
• My own, on the round's lines:
  • O1, a newline ends a word (bootstrap.py): killed, 1 failed (4.3-newline);
  • O2, U+00A0 ends a word (siblings.py): killed, 1 failed (4.3-no-break-space);
  • O3, only a space ends a word (bootstrap.py): survives, 43 passed. It makes no difference to any MAKEFLAGS make writes, since make never puts a raw tab between words (measured above).
• Both scripts were restored to their committed sha256 after each mutant: 045f33a1 and 7c1abf54, the same as lane 4's.

7. Runs at 1e94ce04, through run9.sh, on git 2.43

• The new file, tests/test_family_holder_bootstrap_texts.py and tests/test_family_bootstrap_gate_order.py: 134 passed (43+57+34).
• The trio and tests/test_pinned_copy_text.py: 238 passed (81+47+23+87).
• On main's two scripts: 43 failed, 5 on the warning and 38 on the missing member_make_env. That matches lane 4's count.

8. Merges (git merge-tree --write-tree, all exit 0)

against	result
re-fetched origin/main ebbd9fa4	clean, tree 0a1c1da8
#889 32a5899f	clean, tree be1242d7
#951 528adbf7	clean, tree 6a1f7ebf
#954 9eb9d3d2	clean, tree b5e23311

• The three PR trees match lane 4's.
• Main has changed the pinned scripts/repo_shape.py since 64464d31 (+27/-3), so I ran the merged tree with main (index tree 0a1c1da8, the same as the merge-tree result): the new file, holder_bootstrap_texts and pinned_copy_text gave 187 passed.

9. Sonar-style checks on the round's lines

• No function's complexity changed: only a regex constant moved. The new test function has no branches.
• No assert joins conditions with and or or. The copy test makes three separate asserts.
• No duplicated block beyond the regex line both copies must share.
• Widths:
  • the scripts' added lines reach 73 columns (the files' own widest are 82 and 80);
  • the test file's line 226 is 79 columns against its earlier 78. That is within PEP 8, and below its neighbours (test_family_holder_bootstrap_texts.py at 79, test_family.py at 87).
• The round adds no raw non-ASCII character: the new spellings are Python escapes.

Could not verify

• The updated PR body: no copy is saved under $Q. Only the round account and the commit message were read.
• That lane 4 has filed the C1 follow-up issue.
• GNU make 4.4 and later, 3.81, macOS and Windows.
• Lane 4's 19-file gate count of 1332, and its update-shape.py check at 1e94ce04. Neither was asked of me this round.
• SonarCloud and CI.
