[issue23618] PEP 475: handle EINTR in the socket module

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou added the comment:

About EINTR and connect(), I've found the following insightful page:
http://www.madore.org/~david/computers/connect-intr.html

Official POSIX wording is this:

"""If connect() is interrupted by a signal that is caught while blocked waiting to establish a connection, connect() shall fail and set errno to [EINTR], but the connection request shall not be aborted, and the connection shall be established asynchronously."""
