+ WARNING! ASYNCHRONOUSLY EXECUTING CODE!
+ This code is used for signal handling in python that isn't built
+ with WITH_THREAD.
+ Don't use this implementation when Py_AddPendingCalls() can happen
+ on a different thread!
+
There are two possible race conditions:
- (1) nested asynchronous registry calls;
- (2) registry calls made while pending calls are being processed.
- While (1) is very unlikely, (2) is a real possibility.
+ (1) nested asynchronous calls to Py_AddPendingCall()
+ (2) AddPendingCall() calls made while pending calls are being processed.
+
+ (1) is very unlikely because typically signal delivery
+ is blocked during signal handling. So it should be impossible.
+ (2) is a real possibility.
The current code is safe against (2), but not against (1).
The safety against (2) is derived from the fact that only one
- thread (the main thread) ever takes things out of the queue.
-
- XXX Darn! With the advent of thread state, we should have an array
- of pending calls per thread in the thread state! Later...
+ thread is present, interrupted by signals, and that the critical
+ section is protected with the "busy" variable. On Windows, which
+ delivers SIGINT on a system thread, this does not hold and therefore
+ Windows really shouldn't use this version.
+ The two threads could theoretically wiggle around the "busy" variable.
