STINNER Victor added the comment: And now, something completly different.
nanosec-wip.patch is a work-in-progress patch to use a unified (64 bits) integer type to store a timestamp: _PyTime_t. The type is written to be opaque, the unit is undefined, you must use functions to convert from and to this type. Well, in fact it's just a number of nanoseconds. The patch is large: Include/pytime.h | 125 ++++++----- Modules/_datetimemodule.c | 43 ++-- Modules/_testcapimodule.c | 25 +- Modules/_threadmodule.c | 156 +++++++------- Modules/gcmodule.c | 12 - Modules/posixmodule.c | 29 +- Modules/selectmodule.c | 33 --- Modules/signalmodule.c | 20 - Modules/socketmodule.c | 151 ++++++++------ Modules/socketmodule.h | 2 Modules/timemodule.c | 40 ++- Python/pytime.c | 480 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------------- 12 files changed, 645 insertions(+), 471 deletions(-) Conversion functions require a rounding mode. I didn't update all tests yet. For example, test_datetime crash, test_time and test_threading fail. There are also 3 remaining FIXME for myself in pytime.c. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file36538/nanosec-wip.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22117> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
