The Queue._feed does not properly handle the size of the Queue on errors. This can lead to a situation where the Queue is considered as Full when it is empty. Here is a reproducing script:

import multiprocessing as mp

q = mp.Queue(1)


class FailPickle():
    def __reduce__(self):
        raise ValueError()

q.put(FailPickle())
print("Queue is full:", q.full())
q.put(0)
print(f"Got result: {q.get()}")

This PR fixes this behavior.

Can you add a comment explaining why you need to adjust the semaphore's value?

q.put(True)

Should you add a check for q.qsize() as well?

Typo: "handling".

q = self.Queue(maxsize=1)
q.put(NotSerializable())
q.put(True)
self.assertEqual(q.qsize(), 1)

Is this check correct? Depending on when the worker thread triggers, it might return 2, no?

I think it is correct because maxsize=1 so the second q.put should return only once the failure has been triggered.

That's a good point, thank you.
