Python 3.3+ support only NT and POSIX threads. 2.7 and 3.2 have GNU pth and other threading API but I neither have a system to test other threading libs nor the motivation to port my patch to an ancient threading library. It's not just RAND_bytes(). OpenSSL's PRNG is also used by OpenSSL internally, e.g. as entropy source for SSL/TLS handshakes. How many function do you want to patch? ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file31356/openssl_prng_atfork4.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18747> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
