"""Subprocress execution
This module holds a subclass of subprocess.Popen with our own required
features, mainly that we get access to the subprocess output while it
is running rather than just at the end. This makes it easiler to show
progress information and filter output in real time.

This class deals with running a child process and filtering its output on
both stdout and stderr while it is running. We do this so we can monitor
progress, and possibly relay the output to the user if requested.
The class is similar to subprocess.Popen, the equivalent is something like:
Popen(args, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
But this class has many fewer features, and two enhancement:
1. Rather than getting the output data only at the end, this class sends it
to a provided operation as it arrives.
2. We use pseudo terminals so that the child will hopefully flush its output
to us as soon as it is produced, rather than waiting for the end of a
line.
Use CommunicateFilter() to handle output from the subprocess.

def CommunicateFilter(self, output):
"""Interact with process: Read data from stdout and stderr.
This method runs until end-of-file is reached, then waits for the
subprocess to terminate.
The output function is sent all output from the subprocess and must be
defined like this:
def Output([self,] stream, data)
Args:
stream: the stream the output was received on, which will be
sys.stdout or sys.stderr.
data: a string containing the data
Note: The data read is buffered in memory, so do not use this
method if the data size is large or unlimited.
Args:
output: Function to call with each fragment of output.
Returns:
A tuple (stdout, stderr, combined) which is the data received on
stdout, stderr and the combined data (interleaved stdout and stderr).
Note that the interleaved output will only be sensible if you have
set both stdout and stderr to PIPE or PIPE_PTY. Even then it depends on
the timing of the output in the subprocess. If a subprocess flips
between stdout and stderr quickly in succession, by the time we come to
read the output from each we may see several lines in each, and will read
all the stdout lines, then all the stderr lines. So the interleaving
may not be correct. In this case you might want to pass
stderr=cros_subprocess.STDOUT to the constructor.
This feature is still useful for subprocesses where stderr is
rarely used and indicates an error.
Note also that if you set stderr to STDOUT, then stderr will be empty
and the combined output will just be the same as stdout.
