             Summary: Avoid fork after import dangerous libraries
                 Key: SPARK-54456
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-54456
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: PySpark
    Affects Versions: 4.2.0
            Reporter: Tian Gao


It's impossible to guarantee the safety of a fork after multiple threads are 
used.

[https://discuss.python.org/t/switching-default-multiprocessing-context-to-spawn-on-posix-as-well/21868]

That's why Python issues a warning in such cases after 3.12. However, our 
daemon is not designed to be safe. It could import an arbitrary library before 
fork and potentially cause a deadlock after fork.
