Zope has been hooking the 'asyncore.loop' function (wrapping it in order
to add a "clean shutdown' flog) since 2001 at least (the 2.5 branch is
the earliest checkout I have, and it was branched in early January 2002).
Zope also began patched asyncore's logging functions in 2.7, and later
updated that patch to make the logger use the stdlib 'logging' module.
I think the change we need to make (in ZServer/medusa/http_server.py) is
to emulate the new 'writeable' implementation in asynchat, at least when
running under 2.6.
Zope's 'ZServer.medusa.http_server.http_request.writable()'
implementation is::
def writable (self):
# this is just the normal async_chat 'writable',
# here for comparison
return self.ac_out_buffer or len(self.producer_fifo)
The Python 2.5 asynchat.asynchat.writable does::
def writable (self):
"predicate for inclusion in the writable for select()"
# return len(self.ac_out_buffer) or len(self.producer_fifo) or
# (not self.connected)
# this is about twice as fast, though not as clear.
return not (
(self.ac_out_buffer == '') and
self.producer_fifo.is_empty() and
self.connected
)
The Python 2.6 asynchat.asynchat.writable now does::
def writable (self):
"predicate for inclusion in the writable for select()"
return self.producer_fifo or (not self.connected)
medusa 0.5.4's medusa.http_server.http_request doesn't override
'writable', but it does have a broken 'writeable_for_proxy':
def writable_for_proxy (self):
# this version of writable supports the idea of a 'stalled'
# producer
# [i.e., it's not ready to produce any output yet] This is
# needed by
# the proxy, which will be waiting for the magic combination of
# 1) hostname resolved
# 2) connection made
# 3) data available.
if self.ac_out_buffer:
return 1
elif len(self.producer_fifo):
p = self.producer_fifo.first()
if hasattr (p, 'stalled'):
return not p.stalled()
else:
return 1
