STINNER Victor added the comment:
It's related to bpo-30807, "setitimer() can disable timer by mistake".
Test code:
def test_setitimer_tiny(self):
# bpo-30807: C setitimer() takes a microsecond-resolution interval.
# Check that float -> timeval conversion doesn't round
# the interval down to zero, which would disable the timer.
self.itimer = signal.ITIMER_REAL
signal.setitimer(self.itimer, 1e-6)
time.sleep(1)
self.assertEqual(self.hndl_called, True)
