I'm not sure that it's possible to implement this atomically. It's probably better to leave the application to choose how the inheritance is defined. Example: for handle in handles: os.set_inheritable(handle, True) subprocess.call(...) for handle in handles: os.set_inheritable(handle, False) This example is safe if the application has a single thread (if a single thread spawn new programs). Making handles non-inheritable again may be useless.
