gh-129005: Align FileIO.readall between _pyio and _io

[cmaloney]

Utilize bytearray.resize() and os.readinto() to reduce copies and match behavior of _io.FileIO.readall().

There is still an extra copy which means twice the memory required compared to FileIO because there isn't a zero-copy path from bytearray -> bytes currently.

On my system reading a 2GB file
./python -m test -M8g -uall test_largefile -m test.test_largefile.PyLargeFileTest.test_large_read -v

Goes from ~2.7 seconds -> ~2.2 seconds. The C _io implementation is ~1.2 seconds, so still some performance gap, but less.

• Issue: Reduce copies when reading files in pyio, match behavior of _io #129005

result = memoryview(result)[bytes_read:] would avoid a truncation which can imply a memory copy in the worst case, no?

[cmaloney]

the resize "shrink" in bytearray doesn't actually resize unless the buffer's "capacity" is 2x the requested size (https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/Objects/bytearrayobject.c#L201-L214). Just updates its internal "this is how long the bytes is" counter (which for things like full-file readall with known size, this should already be just one byte over the right size).

My plan currently is to make it so bytes(bytearray(10)) and bytearray(b'\0' * 10) both don't copy (Ongoing discussion in https://discuss.python.org/t/add-zero-copy-conversion-of-bytearray-to-bytes-by-providing-bytes/79164). Having a memoryview would mean there's more than one reference to the bytearray, and I couldn't do / use that optimization.

Ok, I'm fine with using result.resize() here.

Hypothesis test failure in binascii / pretty sure unrelated

In the C code, new_buffersize() argument is bytes_read, not bufsize. You may keep new_buffersize() as a private module-level function.

[cmaloney]

Updated the loop to no longer use bufsize at all, this is the only line that used it, and it feels more Pythonic to me to just use len(result).

That enables rewriting to:

try: # Read until EOF (n == 0)whilen:=os.readinto(self._fd, memoryview(result)[bytes_read:]): bytes_read+=nifbytes_read>=len(result): result.resize(_new_buffersize(bytes_read)) exceptBlockingIOError: ifnotbytes_read: returnNoneassertlen(result) -bytes_read>=1, \ "os.readinto buffer size 0 will result in erroneous EOF / returns 0"result.resize(bytes_read) returnbytes(result)

which feels cleaner, but also starts changing structure relative to _io version.

[cmaloney]

decided to refactor to this. Control flow feels a lot simpler to me and a lot more readable than the branches and breaks.

Tests / Windows / build and test (Win32) failure is a urllib.error.HTTPError : HTTP error 504: Gateway Timeout [D:\a\cpython\cpython\PCbuild\pythoncore.vcxproj], believe unrelated

LGTM

Merged, thank you.
