Subject: bpo-24658: os.read() reuses _PY_READ_MAX (GH-10657)
X-Git-Tag: v3.7.2rc1~113
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=18f3327d9a99163a658697465eb00c31f86535eb;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git

bpo-24658: os.read() reuses _PY_READ_MAX (GH-10657)


os_read_impl() now also truncates the size to _PY_READ_MAX
on macOS, to avoid to allocate a larger buffer even if _Py_read() is
limited to _PY_READ_MAX bytes (ex: INT_MAX on macOS).
(cherry picked from commit 9a0d7a7648547ffb77144bf2480155f6d7940dea)
