Hi, I tried replicating this by truncating normal files but that doesn't crash. The above mentioned call of ftruncate only crashes for when the file descriptor passed points to a shared memory segment. And only, multiprocessing.shared_memory is currently creating shared_memory using _posixshmem.shm_open. So, it can be fixed in ftruncate implementation or this can also be handled by multiprocessing.shared_memory. Please let me know your thoughts about the same. ---------- nosy: +christian.heimes _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39584> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
