common: share the bzip2 stream engine - #8638
Conversation
Move the VM-independent bzip2 stream owner into a `bz2`-gated `rustpython-common` module beside the zlib and lzma engines, and keep `rustpython-stdlib` as the Python object and exception adapter. The adapter no longer names the `bzip2` crate; the `bz2` feature carries it. `_bz2` was the last user of the generic `DecompressState` / `DecompressStatus` / `Decompressor` machinery in `stdlib/src/compression.rs`, so that goes with it; `DecompressArgs` stays for zlib and lzma. The decompressor feeds the stream through the existing `Chunker`, so buffered and freshly supplied input are no longer joined into a new allocation first. `test_decompress_after_data_error` passes on the ported engine, so its `expectedFailure` marker goes.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The bzip2 migration can raise EOFError before returning already-decoded output when input is exhausted and the output buffer is full, creating a user-visible correctness bug that should be fixed before merge. The shared stream API also leaves terminal-state enforcement to callers, requiring owner awareness for future consumers. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

bzip2-rs Decompress decompress output buffer full input exhausted BZ2_bzDecompress contract
💡 Result:
In the context of the libbzip2 C library, which underpins many Rust wrappers (such as the bzip2 crate), the function BZ2_bzDecompress is designed to decompress data from a user-supplied input buffer to a user-supplied output buffer [1][2]. Regarding the behavior when the output buffer is full or input is exhausted: 1. BZ2_bzDecompress Contract: The function operates by transferring data between the provided input and output buffers. It stops when the input buffer is empty or the output buffer is full [1][3]. 2. Output Buffer Full (BZ_OUTBUFF_FULL): If the output buffer is insufficient to hold the decompressed data produced by the current input segment, the function returns BZ_OUTBUFF_FULL [1][4]. When this happens, you must empty the output buffer (or provide a new one) and call BZ2_bzDecompress again to continue decompression [1]. 3. Input Exhausted: If the input buffer is exhausted but the stream has not reached its end, the function typically returns BZ_OK (or similar) indicating that it requires more input [1][4]. You should replenish the input buffer and call the function again. 4. Handling in Rust: - The bzip2 crate (bindings to libbz2) provides a Decompress struct that manages these buffers [5][2]. Its decompress method returns a Status, which informs you if it needs more input or has filled the output buffer, requiring the caller to handle the state accordingly [5]. - The bzip2-rs crate (a pure Rust implementation) manages this internally through its Decoder interface, where Read and Write implementations abstract away the manual buffer management [6][7][8]. To ensure correct operation, you should repeatedly call the decompression function in a loop, checking the status or return code, until BZ_STREAM_END is returned, which signifies the logical end of the compressed stream and ensures all output has been fully processed [1][3].

Reorder the exhausted-input check after the output-full check.
When chunks.is_empty() and produced == block.len(), libbz2 can still have decoded output pending. The current order sets needs_input = true, so _compression.DecompressReader can raise EOFError at end of file before returning that output.
Handle a full output block first, then break when input is exhausted. Add a regression test for this case.

Follow-up to #8631. Move the VM-independent bzip2 stream owner into a
bz2-gatedrustpython-common::compression::bz2module, beside the zlib andlzma engines, and keep
rustpython-stdlibas the Python object and exceptionadapter. The adapter no longer names the
bzip2crate — thebz2featurecarries it.
_bz2was the last user of the genericDecompressState/DecompressStatus/Decompressormachinery incrates/stdlib/src/compression.rs, so that goeswith it.

is what the zlib engine already does.
