changeset:   79704:751a91e332d9
branch:      2.7
parent:      79675:c0a2294de787
user:        Gregory P. Smith <greg at krypto.org>
date:        Fri Oct 12 13:02:06 2012 -0700
summary:
  Fixes Issue #12268 for the io module - File readline, readlines and
read or readall methods no longer lose data when an underlying read
system call is interrupted within an io module object.  IOError is no
longer raised due to a read system call returning EINTR from within
these methods.

This is a backport of changeset 781b95159954 from 3.2.
The earlier 2.7 changeset 67dc99a989cd already fixed this for the
builtin python 2.x file object.

+# Written to test interrupted system calls interfering with our many buffered
+# IO implementations.  http://bugs.python.org/issue12268
+#
+# This tests the '_io' module.  Similar tests for Python 2.x's older
+# default file I/O implementation exist within test_file2k.py.
+#
+# It was suggested that this code could be merged into test_io and the tests
+# made to work using the same method as the existing signal tests in test_io.
+# I was unable to get single process tests using alarm or setitimer that way
+# to reproduce the EINTR problems.  This process based test suite reproduces
+# the problems prior to the issue12268 patch reliably on Linux and OSX.
