New submission from William Grzybowski <willia...@gmail.com>: Hello,
Currently the GIL is not disabled when calling pwd.getpwnam nor pwd.getpwuid. It could be the C library call may take some time for completion, especially when using third-party modules on the system (nss-ldap, nss-pgsql, sss, etc). Disabling GIL before calling them makes sure other threads can run in the meantime. ---------- components: Extension Modules messages: 317445 nosy: wg priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Disable GIL on getpwnam and getpwuid versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33625> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
