* Issue #19811, #22022: test_pathlib uses support.rmtree() instead of
shutil.rmtree() to remove the temporary directory.
* Issue #19629: Fix support.rmtree(), use os.lstat() to check if the file is a
directory, not os.path.isdir()
- Use _testcapi.raise_signal() in test_signal
- close also os.pipe() file descriptors in some test_signal tests where they
were not closed properly
- Remove faulthandler._sigill() and faulthandler._sigbus(): reuse
_testcapi.raise_signal() in test_faulthandler
Since Python 3.3, the C signal handler writes the signal number into the wakeup
file descriptor and then schedules the Python call using Py_AddPendingCall().
asyncio uses the wakeup file descriptor to wake up the event loop, and relies
on Py_AddPendingCall() to schedule the final callback with call_soon().
If the C signal handler is called in a thread different than the thread of the
event loop, the loop is awaken but Py_AddPendingCall() was not called yet. In
this case, the event loop has nothing to do and go to sleep again.
Py_AddPendingCall() is called while the event loop is sleeping again and so the
final callback is not scheduled immediatly.
This patch changes how asyncio handles signals. Instead of relying on
Py_AddPendingCall() and the wakeup file descriptor, asyncio now only relies on
the wakeup file descriptor. asyncio reads signal numbers from the wakeup file
descriptor to call its signal handler.
