New submission from Xinmeng Xia <xi...@smail.nju.edu.cn>:

The following code recursively calls function test_forkserver(). However, the 
output is not expected RecursionError(recursively calling) or OSError(too many 
open files). An unexpected EOFError ( inside module multiprocessing, not this 
code itself) is reported. According to the error message, Python interpreter 
seems to behavior abnormal on line 1, "import multiprocessing". I try other 
cases in my machine, multiprocessing module can work well. Only this case will 
crash module multiprocessing.

test.py
======================================
import multiprocessing
import os

def do(i):
      print(test_forkserver(), os.getpid())

def test_forkserver():
      mp = multiprocessing.get_context('forkserver')
      mp.Pool(2).map(do(mp), range(3))
if __name__ == '__main__':
      test_forkserver()
======================================

Attached output:
------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/python3.10/lib/python3.10/multiprocessing/forkserver.py",
