Sébastien Sablé <sa...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment: The problem does not happen with Python 2.6. The difference is that:
* in Python 2.6, the subprocess module would try to write at most 512 bytes cf L1221 in subprocess.py chunk = input[input_offset : input_offset + 512] * in Python 2.7 and py3k, the subprocess module will try to write at most _PIPE_BUF bytes cf L1319 in subprocess.py chunk = input[input_offset : input_offset + _PIPE_BUF] When forcing PIPE_BUF to 512 in selectmodule.c, the test will pass. PIPE_BUF seems to be broken on AIX. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9862> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
