Subject: gh-154352: Fix killing a worker process in regrtest on OpenBSD (GH-154353)
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bfd774d61eeb384b74380deb1fc5b726decba75e;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git

gh-154352: Fix killing a worker process in regrtest on OpenBSD (GH-154353)

os.getsid() is only allowed for a process in the same session on
OpenBSD.  Worker processes are started in their own session, so the
failure means that the process group can be killed.
