New submission from STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com>: pthread_kill() doesn't work on the main thread on FreeBSD6: sending a signal to the main thread does nothing. It works on the main thread just after the creation of the first thread.
PyThread__init_thread() has 3 implementations in Python/thread_pthread.h: - call pthread_init() - create a dummy thread (no-op) and join it - do nothing pthread_init() doesn't exist on FreeBSD6. If the dummy thread implementation is used, pthread_kill() works directly on the main thread at startup. ---------- messages: 138875 nosy: haypo, neologix priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: pthread_kill() doesn't work on the main thread on FreeBSD6 versions: Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12392> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
