Petr Viktorin added the comment: Here is a proof of concept patch from Jaroslav Škarvada. It fixes the problem by holding the mutex used for PyThread_create_key while forking.
To make it more than PoC it needs adding _PyThread_AcquireKeyLock and _ReleaseKeyLock (similar to _PyImport_AcquireLock() etc.) and calling those. Other than that, does this approach look reasonable? ---------- keywords: +patch nosy: +encukou Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file46682/fork_hold_keymutex.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29640> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
