[New-bugs-announce] [issue12958] test_socket failures on Mac OS X

[Nick Coghlan]

New submission from Nick Coghlan <ncoghlan at gmail.com>:

Several of the new socket tests introduced in #6560 are failing on the Mac OS X buildbots. These appear to be due to platform problems rather than anything in the test suite or the new sendmsg/recvmsg code, but it would be good if a developer on Mac OS X could take a closer look at them.

To avoid polluting the buildbot results, the affected tests will be flagged as expected failures when run on Mac OS X (this isn't in the repo yet, but once it is, the tests will be marked with "anticipate_failure" in the test_socket code).
