Content
Now that sendmsg()/recvmsg() are exposed in socketmodule, we could use them to replace the ad-hoc FD-passing routines used by multiprocessing.reduction. Antoine suggested adding sendfd()/recvfd() methods to socket objects, but I'm not sure about this, since those only make sense for Unix domain sockets. Two remarks on the patch attached: - this removes sendfd()/recvfd() from _multiprocessing (but AFAICT those were never documented as part of the public API) - EOF/invalid data received result in a RuntimeError
