New submission from Christian Heimes <li...@cheimes.de>:
eventfd is a Linux syscall that returns a file descriptor for event/notify systems. I propse to add a simple eventfd(initval, flags) function that is a wrapper around glibc's eventfd abstraction layer. High level notify and semaphores can then be implemented in pure Python. See https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/eventfd.2.html for more details See https://bugs.python.org/issue40485 for a use case. ---------- components: Extension Modules, Library (Lib) messages: 371727 nosy: christian.heimes priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Provide wrapper for eventfd versions: Python 3.10 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41001> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
