📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The patch modifies exception re-raising behavior within try-finally unwinding paths in the compiler's bytecode generation. It ensures that before emitting a RERAISE instruction, the FinallyEnd fblock is properly popped, the previous exception is explicitly copied from the stack, and the exception context is restored before re-raising to route exceptions to outer handlers correctly.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Exception Re-raising in Try-Finally Unwinding
crates/codegen/src/compile.rs
Modified RERAISE logic to pop FinallyEnd fblock prior to re-raising; added explicit stack manipulation (COPY index 2) to restore previous exception state; inserted POP_EXCEPT to restore exception context, ensuring exceptions route to outer exception handlers rather than intermediate cleanup blocks. Changes applied symmetrically across both normal and exception-path handling branches.

Poem

🐰 In finally blocks where exceptions dwell,
We pop the cleanup, then reraise bell,
Stack state aligned, the handlers now see,
Exceptions escape where they ought to be!
No more loops spinning, just control flow clean,

Docstring Coverage ⚠️ Warning Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.
Title check ❓ Inconclusive The title is vague and generic, using non-descriptive language that doesn't clarify what specific asyncio compilation issue is being fixed. Revise the title to be more specific, such as 'Fix exception routing in try-finally with async/await' or 'Fix CancelledError re-raising in asyncio Condition.wait', to better convey the nature of the fix.

Description Check ✅ Passed Check skipped - CodeRabbit’s high-level summary is enabled.
Linked Issues check ✅ Passed The code changes directly address the core issue: fixing exception routing so that re-raised exceptions in finally blocks proceed to outer handlers rather than re-entering cleanup loops, matching CPython behavior.
Out of Scope Changes check ✅ Passed All changes in compile.rs are focused on fixing the exception routing logic in try-finally-await control flow, directly addressing the linked issues without introducing unrelated modifications.

2550-2566: Good: pop FinallyEnd before RERAISE to avoid cleanup re-entry.
This ordering plus the Copy/PopExcept restore keeps the rethrow routed to the outer handler as intended.


2850-2865: Consistent exception-path rethrow handling in finally.
Popping FinallyEnd before restoring prev_exc keeps the rethrow targeted at the outer handler, not cleanup.
