Hello, my name is Greg.
I've just started using python after many years of C programming, and
I'm also new to the list. I wanted to clarify this
first, so that maybe I will get a little less beating for my
stupidity :)
Welcome!
[snip]
Browsing the net I've found a patch to the python core
(http://bugs.python.org/issue1194378), dated 2005.
First of all, I would like to ask you guys, whether you know of any
way of doing this FD passing magic, or that you know
of any 3rd party module / patch / anything that can do this for me.
Aside from the patch in the tracker, there are several implementations of
these APIs as third-party extension modules.
Since I'm fairly familiar with C and (not that much, but I feel the
power) python, I would take the challenge of writing
it, given that the above code is still somewhat usable. If all else
fails I would like to have your help to guide me through
this process.
What would be great is if you could take the patch in the tracker and get
it into shape so that it is suitable for inclusion. This would involve
three things, I think:
1. Write unit tests for the functionality (since the patch itself
provides
none)
2. Update the patch so that it again applies cleanly against trunk
3. Add documentation for the new APIs
Once this is done, you can get a committer to look at it and either
provide
more specific feedback or apply it.
Thanks,
Jean-Paul

Hello again
So, after a little cleanup I've managed to integrate the code into
socketmodule.c/h. It works fine now, though I needed to
add it to Lib/socket.py, otherwise it wouldn't show up in the socket
module (I've searched for recvfrom and added it).
I've also cleaned up the code a little, fixed some codingstyle issues
(which might still exist).
Since I am not a python core developer the patch might still be in a
pretty outdated state. I'd like someone to look it over
and direct me to some documentation (the ones I've found so far were
pretty sketchy), for it to be acceptable for inclusion.
The sanity of the code is what matters to me the most. I've looked it
over though and found it in a sound state, but I guess
you guys might have a different opinion about that ;)
With writing the test cases, some documentation would be nice.
I've attached the patch generated with svn diff for revision 73434, and
the test code that I use to pass a file descriptor
between processes. It works just fine :).
Thanks
Kalman Gergely

#Help on built-in function sendmsg:
#
#sendmsg(...)
# sendmsg(data,[addr,[[(msg-level,msg-type,msg-data),...],[flags]]]) ->
# sendlen
#
# Send data over a socket. You can additionally send ancilliary messages
# over the socket by specifying them as a list (or any other iterable).
# All other parameters are just as they are to sendto().
#
#
#Help on built-in function recvmsg:
#
#recvmsg(...)
# recvmsg(len,[addr,[ancmsg,[flags]]]) ->
# (data,[data,...],msg_flags)
#
# Receive data (and possible ancilliary messages) from the remote end
# of this socket. Ancilliary messages are split into tuples, which are
# then returned as a list. In case no message is available, returns an
# empty list. Otherwise the function is similar to recv().
