[issue23830] Add AF_IUCV support to sockets
Neale Ferguson added the comment: Updated patch against head (96580:3156dd82df2d). Built on s390x and x86_64. Test suite ran on both - tests successfully ignored on x86_64 and passed on s390x. -- versions: +Python 3.6 -Python 3.5 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file39683/af_iucv_cpython.patch ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue23830> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue23830] Add AF_IUCV support to sockets
New submission from Neale Ferguson: IUCV is a hypervisor mediated communications method for z/VM guest virtual machines. Linux on z Systems (aka s390x) has supported this via the use of AF_IUCV sockets for many years (added to kernel Feb 2007). This suggested patch adds support to Python 2.7.9 for this socket type. I have built Python on both s390x and x86_64: both build cleanly and the test added to test_socket.py runs cleanly on s390x and is skipped on other platforms. -- components: Library (Lib) files: af_iucv.patch keywords: patch messages: 239743 nosy: neale priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Add AF_IUCV support to sockets type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file38765/af_iucv.patch ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue23830> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Will do, I was going to let the caller strip() but I will do it here instead. Is there an existing strip routine that I could call rather than writing my own (trivial) stripper? Do I resubmit the patch in the bug/enhancement report I had created?

Neale Ferguson added the comment: I can provide one if required. I have access to an s390x Linux Foundation machine where I have a couple of virtual machines that could be used. Original message From: Nick Coghlan Date:2015/04/02 06:35 (GMT-05:00) To: Neale Ferguson Subject: [issue23830] Add AF_IUCV support to sockets Nick Coghlan added the comment: Slavek, there's an s390x patch here to add AF_IUCV support to the socket module. One interesting point to note is that s390x isn't an officially supported CPython architecture by the terms of PEP 11. While I can vouch for it working there (courtesy of beaker-project.org), I don't see any reasonable way we could provide an upstream buildbot for it. -- nosy: +bkabrda, ncoghlan ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue23830> ___ -- ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue23830> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Neale Ferguson added the comment: Attaching a patch based off 3.5.0a3. Note, for Py_ssize_t I had to add: #ifdef PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN Py_ssize_t lNode, lUser, lName; #else int lNode, lUser, lName; #endif As if I did not, the values I got back were garbage. Is this because of some configuration parameter I failed to use? However, the patch builds on s390x and x86_64 and the test passes on the former and is skipped on the latter. -- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file38850/af_iucv.patch35 ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue23830> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
