New submission from STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com>: While reading floatsleep() (time.sleep) code for issue #12459, I noticed that the Python signal handler is not called in floatsleep() if a signal interrupted the sleep. Well, it just "works" because the bytecode evaluation loop will call PyErr_CheckSignals() before executing the next instruction (the C signal handler signals calls Py_AddPendingCall whichs signals that the pending call to the eval loop using "eval_breaker"), but it would be better to call it directly.
Attached calls explicitly and immediatly PyErr_CheckSignals() in the sleep and Windows implementations of floatsleep(). It's not really a bug, so I prefer to not touch Python 2.7 and 3.2, only Python 3.3. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: sleep_signal.patch keywords: patch messages: 139562 nosy: haypo, pitrou priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: time.sleep(1): call PyErr_CheckSignals() if the sleep was interrupted versions: Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file22534/sleep_signal.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12462> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
