New submission from Jakub Kulik <kulik...@gmail.com>:
Python presumes that any negative number returned from sched_get_priority_min or sched_get_priority_max indicates that error has occurred. However, neither Linux manual pages nor POSIX.1-2001 specification forbids negative values to be returned; only -1 has a special meaning for error. On Solaris, sched_get_priority_min can, in some instances, return -60, and while this is a legitimate scheduling priority value, Python throws an OSError. Checking for -1 rather than all negative values fixes this issue. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 377363 nosy: kulikjak priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Fix error checking in sched_get_priority_ functions type: behavior versions: Python 3.10, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41839> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
