New submission from Facundo Batista <facu...@taniquetil.com.ar>: If something bad happens between a os.pipe() call is called, and the returned file descriptors are closed, those file descriptors are never closed.
In a long lived process this is a problem. Patch (against trunk) to solve this is attached. ---------- assignee: facundobatista files: subprocess.py.diff keywords: patch messages: 89301 nosy: facundobatista severity: normal status: open title: subprocess.Popen() may leak file descriptors type: resource usage versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file14278/subprocess.py.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6274> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
