Add StringIO newline tracking - #8539
Conversation
Constraint: Match CPython StringIO newline reporting without changing configured newline translation. Rejected: Separate newline-tracking representation | reuse the existing SeenNewline bitflags. Confidence: high Scope-risk: narrow Directive: Keep observed newline state separate from the configured newline mode. Tested: prek run --all-files; test_memoryio; cargo clippy -p rustpython-vm --lib -- -D warnings; workspace tests excluding the macOS C-API baseline SIGSEGV. Not-tested: Full macOS workspace suite is blocked by the existing rustpython-capi SIGSEGV; the Linux suite is running. Assisted-by: Codex:gpt-5.6-sol
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change shares newline detection between ChangesNewline tracking
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The change adds newline tracking, but existing StringIO instances may retain stale newline state after reinitialization and closed objects may return newline information instead of raising ValueError. The PR is otherwise mergeable with owner awareness and follow-up for these bounded correctness fixes. Possibly related PRs

Reset seennl when reinitializing StringIO.
When StringIO.__init__ runs on an existing instance, it replaces the buffer but retains prior newline bits. Reset seennl before observing the new content.
Proposed fix
*zelf.buffer.write() = BufferedIO::new(Cursor::new(raw_bytes));
zelf.newline.store(newline);
+ zelf.seennl.store(SeenNewline::empty());
if let Some(object) = object {
zelf.observe_newlines(object.as_wtf8(), newline);

Raise ValueError when reading newlines after close.
StringIO.close() sets closed to true, but this getter returns the stored newline state. Raise io_closed_error(vm) when self.closed is set.
