Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Raise L. Sail (fullsail) Assigned to: Neal Norwitz (nnorwitz) Summary: fcntl.ioctl have a bit problem. Initial Comment: First, I write python program on Linux. The function ioctl of fcntl module, take a integer parameter as ioctl command. in python 2.3.x, if this command value is more than 0x80000000, interpreter will popup some warnning message. but in python 2.4.x, it raise a exception directly. My solution is writing one cutoms module in C. but this is so ugly. There are some ioctl command value are more than 0x80000000, I think we should not reject "negative" ioctl command. enjoy. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Michael Hudson (mwh) Date: 2005-10-04 11:10 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=6656 Uh, no, that patch is about fcntl, this report is about ioctl. ioctl has been fixed in CVS, afaik, so this report should probably be closed unless the OP shows up and tells us it isn't. Something similar should almost certainly be done to fcntl. That's what 1309352 is about. Maybe I should have fixed fcntl when I did ioctl, but I actually use ioctl and don't use fnctl myself... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Neal Norwitz (nnorwitz) Date: 2005-10-04 05:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=33168 This could be related to: patch 1309352. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Michael Hudson (mwh) Date: 2005-08-23 13:10 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=6656 I think this is fixed in CVS HEAD. Can you try that? As a workaround, you can probably pass ~int(~v&0xFFFFFFFF) to ioctl instead of v (which is very ugly, yes, but probably not as ugly as a C extension). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1262856&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
