First, note that Python just calles the underlying recv() syscall, so it's not at fault here. And actually, noone's at fault here, because what you're trying to do doesn't make sense: ICMP is datagram-oriented, so you should use recvfrom(): and if you try to receive less bytes than the datagram size, the rest will be discarded, like UDP. ---------- nosy: +neologix resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21819> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
