By default, a thread signal can receive any signal and the signal handler implemented in C will be called in the context of the thread. CPython ensures that a signal handler implemented in Python and installed by signal.signal() will be called in the main thread. It uses a signal handler implemented in C which only store the notification and will be the Python signal handler later (as early as possible). pthread_sigmask() can be used to mask some signals (or all signals) on a specific thread. ---------- nosy: +haypo, neologix _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14456> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
