New submission from Ezio Melotti:
While running test_multiprocessing I get:
[...]
test_wait_return (test.test_multiprocessing.WithManagerTestBarrier) ... ok
Shared objects which still exist at manager shutdown:
b6b802d4: refcount=1
<threading.Barrier object at 0xb6b802d4>
b6b80ea4: refcount=1
<threading.Event object at 0xb6b80ea4>
b6b83264: refcount=1
[True, True, True, True]
b6b836fc: refcount=1
[16092, 16094, 16091, 16096]
b6b89884: refcount=2

b6b8bc3c: refcount=1
[16092, 16094, 16096, 16091]
test_notify (test.test_multiprocessing.WithManagerTestCondition) ... ok
[...]
test_event (test.test_multiprocessing.WithManagerTestEvent) ... ok
Shared objects which still exist at manager shutdown:
b6dcc7a4: refcount=1
<threading.Event object at 0xb6dcc7a4>
test_lock (test.test_multiprocessing.WithManagerTestLock) ... ok
[...]
This seems to be caused by the fact that when multiprocessing.active_children()
is called in test_multiprocessing.ManagerMixin.tearDownClass(), some of them
are still marked as active.
I tried to add a sleep before the active_children() call and the output
disappeared. On my machine it takes about half second.
The attached patch checks in loop that there no active children left, waiting
up to 5s in increasing time intervals starting from 0.01s (so in the best case
scenario it won't wait at all, and in the worst it will wait ~5s and possibly
report the shared objects that still exists).
