Gregory P. Smith <g...@krypto.org> added the comment: This bug has brought up a broader issue. the pipe2 syscall on Linux is very new. It is perfectly reasonable to expect a Python binary will be compiled against a C library that has a pipe2() function but run on a system with an older (pre 2.6.27) linux kernel. I have many systems like that at work.
I'm going to make subprocess_cloexec_pipe check for a not implemented error from the pipe2 call and use the fallback pipe+fcntl code in that case instead. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10802> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
