I need no convincing that mixing forks and threads isn't just a problem but a problem factory. Given that the rest of this code seems to try to avoid similar deadlocks with similar mutexes, I figured we'd want to include this mutex to make a best-effort at being safe here. That made it worth reporting. To be sure, I still believe that the application code that led us here needs deeper fixes to address the fork/thread problems. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30395> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
