Mark Dickinson added the comment: > I'm not sure that "Waiting for the GIL" line is reliable
Right; I was interpreting that line more as "I don't have the GIL at the moment", which I think applies to all threads, including the main thread. It's pretty clear that threads 2-5 really are waiting for the GIL, and (as you point out), for thread 1 to be where it is, it must have also released the GIL by that point. Agreed about the gdb results for the -O3 build. So it looks as though something's gone wrong with the "I've just released the GIL; now someone else can pick it up" signaling mechanism. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26360> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
