Hello Victor,
The patch looks for fine for a timeout enforcement.
A couple of changes required.
- if isinstance(err[0], timeout):
+ if isinstance(err[0], socket.timeout):
And, in this portion:
+ try:
+ with test_support.transient_internet():
+ buf = f.read()
+ except socket.timeout:
+ print >>sys.stderr, "<timeout: %s>" % url
f.close()
debug("read %d bytes" % len(buf))
The last line references, buf. It wont be available if a socket.timeout had
happened. So, it can simply be moved to the line below buf = f.read().
Attaching the patch with these changes.
Question: Were you able to simulate a timeout at kernel.org site to test this?
If yes, how? I am unable to simulate (by changing the kernel.org:81,
kernel42.org etc), it immediately throws a connection refused. ( In general, I
could simulate the timeout by urlopen('www.google.com:81', timeout=30) and test
the exception)
As build-bot seems to be hung, a timeout enforcement as the patch accomplishes
is fine.
