server crash on SIGINT

[Antoine Martin]

Reproducible fairly reliably.
Trying to debug #2587: connect an android client (is this relevant?) multiple times, eventually send a SIGINT to the server (control-c).

Traceback (most recent call first):

[Antoine Martin]

Reproducible fairly reliably:

• xpra start
• xpra info
• xpra attach
• control-c the server

Bisecting with python3:

• r25100 bad
• r24800 bad
• r24000 bad
• r23000 bad
• r21000 bad

Bisecting with python2 is not possible.. as the bug does not occur.

There is a difference between python2 and python3 when it comes to handling subprocess signals.
r25237 fixes the problem by switching from ​os.setsid to ​os.setpgrp.

More information here: ​Making sure a Python script with subprocesses dies on SIGINT and here: ​How to stop python from propagating signals to subprocesses?

Still crashing, though less reliably??

[Antoine Martin]

Maybe r25237 really did fix the problem?
I'm not seeing the crash any more.
