New submission from Xinmeng Xia <xi...@smail.nju.edu.cn>:
Python interpreter will exit when using Ctrl C to interrupt some Python module functions with read operations. e.g. sndhdr.what(0), pdb.find_function('abs/'*100000,False), mimetypes.read_mime_types(0). This is not the expected behavior. Ctrl C is to raise a KeyboardInterrupt, it should not crash Python and make interpreter exit. Reproduce: 1. type 'python3' in command console; 2. type 'import sndhdr;sndhdr.what(0)' 3. type ctrl C Expected behavior: type ctrl c, raise a KeyboardInterrupt, Python does not exit. ======================================== xxm@xxm-System-Product-Name:~$ python Python 3.9.2 (default, Mar 12 2021, 15:08:35) [GCC 7.5.0] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> KeyboardInterrupt >>> ======================================== Unexpected behavior: type ctrl c, raise a KeyboardInterrupt, Python exits. =========================================================== xxm@xxm-System-Product-Name:~$ python Python 3.9.2 (default, Mar 12 2021, 15:08:35) [GCC 7.5.0] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import sndhdr;sndhdr.what(0) ^CTraceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/home/xxm/Desktop/apifuzz/Python-3.9.2/Lib/sndhdr.py", line 54, in what res = whathdr(filename) File "/home/xxm/Desktop/apifuzz/Python-3.9.2/Lib/sndhdr.py", line 61, in whathdr h = f.read(512) KeyboardInterrupt >>> xxm@xxm-System-Product-Name:~$ =========================================================== System: Ubuntu 16.04 ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 389431 nosy: xxm priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Ctrl C makes interpreter exit type: crash versions: Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43610> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
