Eric Snow <ericsnowcurren...@gmail.com> added the comment:
FWIW, I think it would make sense to keep "signals_pending" under _PyRuntimeState rather than moving it to PyInterpreterState. Signals are only handled by the main interpreter (in its main thread). Even though "signals_pending" is useful to only one interpreter in the runtime, making it per-interpreter sends the wrong message that it is significant at that level. This may be confusing to readers of the code. At the very least there should be a clear comment with the field in Include/internal/pycore_interp.h explaining how it is only used by the main interpreter and why we made it per-interpreter anyway. ---------- nosy: +eric.snow _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40513> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
