Follow-up to #9706, which made if_nameindex and if_indextoname decode interface names with vm.fsdecode.

if_nametoindex encoded its argument as UTF-8, so a non-UTF-8 name returned by those functions could not be passed back. FsPath::to_cstring now encodes str arguments with the filesystem encoding and surrogateescape on Unix (PyUnicode_FSConverter). Its only caller is socket.if_nametoindex.

A lone surrogate that surrogateescape cannot produce ("\ud800") raises UnicodeEncodeError.
"\udcff\udcfe" encodes to raw bytes and fails the lookup with OSError.
The snippet test in extra_tests/snippets/stdlib_socket.py passes on both CPython and RustPython.

Summary by CodeRabbit

Bug Fixes
- Filesystem paths on Unix and WASI now use their operating-system encoding when converted for system interfaces, improving compatibility with paths that the standard byte conversion cannot represent. Other platforms retain their existing behavior.
Tests
- Added checks for socket interface-name conversions, including invalid Unicode input, unresolved names, and converting a valid interface index to a name and back.

Sorry, something went wrong.

          socket: filesystem-encode names passed to if_nametoindex

ff8c934

FsPath::to_cstring now encodes str arguments with the filesystem
encoding and surrogateescape on Unix, so a name returned by
if_indextoname or if_nameindex round-trips, and a lone surrogate that
surrogateescape cannot produce raises UnicodeEncodeError.

Walkthrough

FsPath::to_cstring now uses OS-encoded path bytes on Unix and most WASI targets. POSIX socket tests check interface-name encoding errors, lookup errors, and conversion between interface names and indices.

Changes: Filesystem path encoding

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Path encoding and interface-name checks `crates/vm/src/function/fspath.rs`, `extra_tests/snippets/stdlib_socket.py`	`FsPath::to_cstring` uses OS-encoded bytes on Unix and WASI targets except `target_env = "p2"`. POSIX tests check interface-name conversion errors and confirm that the name for index 1 converts back to index 1.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Possibly related PRs

RustPython/RustPython#9706: Adds filesystem-decoded interface-name output functions; this PR adds filesystem encoding for if_nametoindex.
RustPython/RustPython#9689: Changes vm.fsencode, which FsPath::as_os_str uses for string paths.

Suggested reviewers: terryluan12, 1ndahous3

Merge Risk: Low · up to ff8c9

The change makes interface names that are not valid UTF-8 usable with socket.if_nametoindex. The only open point is a redundant snippet test that could fail on hosts without interface index 1, so it is safe to merge once that test is trimmed.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the main change: names passed to if_nametoindex are now filesystem-encoded. The raw summary shows FsPath::to_cstring now uses OS-encoded bytes on Unix and WASI (except p2), and the PR objectives state that if_nametoindex is the only caller. The added snippet tests cover the same behavior, so the title matches the changeset.

Remove the redundant fixed-index round trip.

If interface index 1 does not exist, this lookup raises OSError and aborts the snippet. Lib/test/test_socket.py, in testInterfaceNameIndex, already checks this conversion using enumerated interfaces. Remove these two lines and retain the surrogate tests. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

As per coding guidelines: “Never add tests to extra_tests/snippets that duplicate coverage in Lib/test.”
