New submission from Palle Ravn <p.r...@samsung.com>:
Using socket.makefile in read-write mode had a bug introduced between version
3.6.6 and 3.6.7. The same bug is present in version 3.7.x.
The below code example will behave very differently between 3.6.6 and 3.6.7.
It's based on the echo-server example from the docs.
import socket
HOST = '127.0.0.1'
PORT = 0
with socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) as s:
s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
s.bind((HOST, PORT))
print(f'Waiting for connection on port {s.getsockname()[1]}')
s.listen(1)
conn, addr = s.accept()
print(f'Connected by {addr}')
with conn:
f = conn.makefile(mode='rw')
while True:
m = f.readline()
print(f'msg: {m!r}')
if not m:
exit(0)
f.write(m)
f.flush()
Python 3.6.7:
Sending the string "Hello\nYou\n" will only print "Hello\n" and also only
return "Hello\n" to the client.
Removing the lines with f.write(m) and f.flush() and both "Hello\n" and "You\n"
will be returned to the client.
It's like the call to f.write() somehow empties the read buffer.
Python 3.6.6:
Sending "Hello\nYou\n" will return "Hello\n" and "You\n" to the client without
any modifications to the above code.
