Message 208539 - Python tracker (original) (raw)

AFAICT, this also affects poll(). Although it's supposed to be passed an integer, passing a float will result in a truncation towards 0: """ $ strace -e poll python -c "import select; p = select.poll(); p.poll(0.9)" poll(0x23321b0, 0, 0) = 0 (Timeout) """

See also this line in PollSelector: """ def select(self, timeout=None): timeout = None if timeout is None else max(int(1000 * timeout), 0) """

This will round timeout=1e-4 to 0.
