Correct me if I'm wrong, but this isn't actually an issue for CPython, right? The GIL ensures that when a thread writes to _shutdown, nothing else is reading it until the GIL is released and acquired by a new thread (which synchronizes _shutdown). It might conceivably be a problem on non-CPython interpreters if they have no other form of inter-thread synchronization involved; that said, the locking involved in the self.work_queue.get(block=True) call likely synchronizes by side-effect even there. ---------- nosy: +josh.r _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue23382> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
