New submission from STINNER Victor : I don't know why threading._get_ident() (which is _thread.get_ident()) is private: this function is safe. This function becomes useful with pthread_kill() which will be added by #8407. -- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation, Library (Lib

[issue8407] expose signalfd(2) and pthread_sigmask in the signal module

STINNER Victor added the comment: pending_signals-3.patch: doc nit, the link to Thread.ident doesn't work. The doc should be replaced by something like: *thread_id* can be read from the :attr:`~threading.Thread.ident` attribute of a :class:`threading.Thread` object. For

STINNER Victor added the comment: Note: we might expose pth_raise() which is similar to pthread_kill(), but... pth support was deprecated by the PEP 11 and pth support will be removed from Python 3.3 source code. -- ___ Python tracker
