Victor, sorry. I spent about 4 days in total trying to figure out what is the reason for hanging. I see that the signal handler is installed; but, in a rare situation, it is not called when the process is killed. If I reduce an amount of code executed in a signal handler by spawning a auxiliary thread, setting threading. Event in sighandler, and doing all dirty work in this secondary thread -- the problem goes away. I'm not happy with this "patch" because it looks like reducing a change of the race without the elimination of the root cause. I've mastered a quick hack to skip the problematic test on a hang, it may unblock other developers. I want to spend more time on the issue detection. Unfortunately, it is not easy because of non-determenistic problem source. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue38323> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
