signal.sigtimedwait(sigset, timeout)
Like sigwaitinfo()
, but takes an additional timeout argument specifying a timeout. If timeout is specified as 0
, a poll is performed. Returns None
if a timeout occurs.
Availability: Unix (see the man page sigtimedwait(2) for further information).
See also pause()
, sigwait()
and sigwaitinfo()
.
New in version 3.3.
Changed in version 3.5: The function is now retried with the recomputed timeout if interrupted by a signal not in sigset and the signal handler does not raise an exception (see PEP 475 for the rationale).
