Function Details

[hide private]

TestDelay(duration)

source code

Sleep for a fixed amount of time.

Parameters:

duration (float) - the sleep duration

Returns: boolean

False for negative value, True otherwise

CloseFdNoError(fd, retries=5)

source code

Close a file descriptor ignoring errors.

Parameters:

fd (int) - the file descriptor
retries (int) - how many retries to make, in case we get any other error than EBADF

SetCloseOnExecFlag(fd, enable)

source code

Sets or unsets the close-on-exec flag on a file descriptor.

Parameters:

fd (int) - File descriptor
enable (bool) - Whether to set or unset it.

SetNonblockFlag(fd, enable)

source code

Sets or unsets the O_NONBLOCK flag on on a file descriptor.

Parameters:

fd (int) - File descriptor
enable (bool) - Whether to set or unset it

IgnoreProcessNotFound(fn, *args, **kwargs)

source code

Ignores ESRCH when calling a process-related function.

ESRCH is raised when a process is not found.

Returns: bool: Whether process was found

ResetTempfileModule()

source code

Resets the random name generator of the tempfile module.

This function should be called after os.fork in the child process to ensure it creates a newly seeded random generator. Otherwise it would generate the same random parts as the parent process. If several processes race for the creation of a temporary file, this could lead to one not getting a temporary name.
