Description
Documentation
[Note: This issue is, in a way, a continuation of gh-125025.]
Near the end of the documentation of the _thread
module there is a list of caveats. One of them – the third one – seems no longer accurate:
It is not possible to interrupt the acquire() method on a lock — the KeyboardInterrupt exception will happen after the lock has been acquired.
– whereas it appears that (since Python 3.2) lock acquisitions can be interrupted by signals, at least on platforms using Pthreads.
