// Thread A is here, holding the GIL and waiting for self->lock to be // released by thread B ENTER_HASHLIB(self) Py_BEGIN_ALLOW_THREADS // Thread B is here, holding self->lock and waiting for the GIL to be // released by thread A Py_END_ALLOW_THREADS LEAVE_HASHLIB(self) _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4751> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
