> I'm not aware of an OS API call that binds both IPv4 and IPv6 to the same > random port. Sure, but `loop.create_server` is already higher-level than a single OS API call. By default `create_server` will already bind multiple sockets if `host=""`, `host=None`, or if `host` is a list. I'm arguing that the current behavior with `port=0` in these situations is unexpected. Other libraries (like tornado) have come to the same conclusion, and have implemented logic to handle this that seems to work well in practice (though can fail, as you've pointed out). Is there a use case where the current behavior (binding to multiple random ports) is desired? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45693> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
