I can rewrite the PEP 446 to: * make all file descriptors and handles non-inheritable * remove the cloexec parameter * remove everything about non-blocking sockets (O_NONBLOCK), it should be discussed in a new PEP (it's no more related to O_CLOEXEC / HANDLE_INHERIT_FLAG) Should I rename os.set_cloexec(fd, cloexec) to os.set_inheritable(fd, inheritable), and os.get_cloexec(fd) to os.get_inheritable(fd)? Or do you prefer a simple os.make_inheritable(fd) with no inheritable parameter? I prefer an explicit parameter, so it's also possible to force again non-inheritable, which also makes sense if the file descriptor was not created by Python.
