But we weren't talking about asynchronous exceptions, we were talking about floating point exceptions. Unless your TLB miss handler uses floating point arithmethic, there's no way it can get interrupted by one. (And if it does use floating point arithmetic in a way that can cause an exception, you'd better write it to deal with that!) -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
