STINNER Victor <vstinner at python.org> added the comment:

Thomas Moreau: "One solution would be to use the `self._shutdown_lock` from the executor to protect the call to `close` in `terminate_broken` and the call to `self._thread_wakeup.wakeup` in `shutdown`. That way, the lock is only acquired at critical points without being used all the time. This could also be done by adding `lock=True/False` to only lock the potentially dangerous calls."

I wrote a conservative PR 19760 which always lock ProcessPoolExecutor._shutdown_lock while accessing _ThreadWakeup.

PR 19760 fix test_killed_child(): it doesn't fail anymore, even with my msg367463 patch (add sleep).
