The before_run never actually ran because:
You're right to suspect an issue with before_run not being called and a potential deadlock. The way you've implemented the run_wrapper using __getattribute__ for the run method of BaseProcess is a common pitfall in Python's multiprocessing, especially when combined with how multiprocessing.Process works internally.
Here's a breakdown of why before_run isn't being called and why you might be experiencing a deadlock:
The Problem: __getattribute__ and Process Serialization
When you create a multiprocessing.Process object and call start(), the multiprocessing module needs to serialize the process object (or at least enough of it to re-create the process in the new interpreter). It then pickles this serialized object and sends it to the newly spawned process.
The issue with your __getattribute__ implementation for run is that:
run is retrieved during serialization: When multiprocessing tries to pickle your Process object to send to the new process, it will likely access the run attribute. This triggers your __getattribute__ wrapper, which then tries to bind run_wrapper to self.
run_wrapper is bound to the parent process's self: The run_wrapper closure, when created in the parent process, captures the self (the Process instance) from the parent's memory space.
Deserialization creates a new object: In the child process, a new Process object is created by deserializing the pickled data. However, the run_wrapper method that was pickled still holds a reference to the self from the parent process. This is a subtle but critical distinction.
The child's run is not your wrapped run: When the child process starts, it internally calls its own run method. Because of the serialization and deserialization process, the run method that's ultimately executed in the child process is the original multiprocessing.Process.run or the Process.run if you had directly overridden it. Your __getattribute__ magic, which wraps run, isn't correctly applied to the Process object within the child's context.
* Cleanup
* Logging bugfix (#18465)
* use mp Manager to handle logging queues
A Python bug (https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/91555) was preventing logs from the embeddings maintainer process from printing. The bug is fixed in Python 3.14, but a viable workaround is to use the multiprocessing Manager, which better manages mp queues and causes the logging to work correctly.

* Added stop_event to util.Process
util.Process will take care of receiving signals when the stop_event is
accessed in the subclass. If it never is, SystemExit is raised instead.
This has the effect of still behaving like multiprocessing.Process when
stop_event is not accessed, while still allowing subclasses to not deal
with the hassle of setting it up.
* Give each util.Process their own logger
This will help to reduce boilerplate in subclasses.
* Give explicit types to util.Process.__init__
This gives better type hinting in the editor.
* Use util.Process facilities in AudioProcessor
Boilerplate begone!
* Removed pointless check in util.Process
The log_listener.queue should never be None, unless something has gone
extremely wrong in the log setup code. If we're that far gone, crashing
is better.
* Make sure faulthandler is enabled in all processes
This has no effect currently since we're using the fork start_method.
However, when we inevidably switch to forkserver (either by choice, or
by upgrading to python 3.14+) not having this makes for some really fun
failure modes :D
* Subclass Process for audio_process
* Introduce custom mp.Process subclass
In preparation to switch the multiprocessing startup method away from
"fork", we cannot rely on os.fork cloning the log state at fork time.
Instead, we have to set up logging before we run the business logic of
each process.
* Make camera_metrics into a class
* Make ptz_metrics into a class
* Fixed PtzMotionEstimator.ptz_metrics type annotation
* Removed pointless variables
* Do not start audio processor when no audio cameras are configured
