From fcfb9461d3cb726b3badee8ffdb6034f19882330 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Victor Stinner Date: Fri, 31 Jan 2014 13:02:44 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Issue #20311, #20452: poll and epoll now round the timeout away from zero, instead of rounding towards zero, in select and selectors modules: select.epoll.poll(), selectors.PollSelector.poll() and selectors.EpollSelector.poll(). For example, a timeout of one microsecond (1e-6) is now rounded to one millisecondi (1e-3), instead of being rounded to zero.
