New submission from STINNER Victor <vstin...@python.org>:

I added os.waitstatus_to_exitcode() in bpo-40094. I propose to replace 
_compute_returncode() with os.waitstatus_to_exitcode() in 
Lib/asyncio/unix_events.py to simplify the code *and* to raise an exception if 
asyncio gets an unexpected wait status from os.waitpid().

There is a comment which suggest to detect when asyncio gets an unexpected 
status, see the last comment of:

def _compute_returncode(status):
    if os.WIFSIGNALED(status):
        # The child process died because of a signal.
        return -os.WTERMSIG(status)
    elif os.WIFEXITED(status):
        # The child process exited (e.g sys.exit()).
        return os.WEXITSTATUS(status)
    else:
        # The child exited, but we don't understand its status.
        # This shouldn't happen, but if it does, let's just
        # return that status; perhaps that helps debug it.
        return status

Replacing _compute_returncode() with os.waitstatus_to_exitcode() in 
Lib/asyncio/unix_events.py is trivial. The problem is to update 
Lib/test/test_asyncio/test_unix_events.py which uses tons of mocks on os.W*() 
functions (ex: os.WIFEXITED()).

I'm not sure how tests should be updated.

Is there someone interested to propose a PR for that?
