问题
Please check this python code:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import requests
import multiprocessing
from time import sleep, time
from requests import async
def do_req():
r = requests.get("http://w3c.org/")
def do_sth():
while True:
sleep(10)
if __name__ == '__main__':
do_req()
multiprocessing.Process( target=do_sth, args=() ).start()
When I press Ctrl-C (wait 2sec after run - let Process run), it doesn't stop. When I change the import order to:
from requests import async
from time import sleep, time
it stops after Ctrl-C. Why it doesn't stop/kill in first example?
It's a bug or a feature?
Notes:
- Yes I know, that I didn't use async in this code, this is just stripped down code. In real code I use it. I did it to simplify my question.
- After pressing Ctrl-C there is a new (child) process running. Why?
multiprocessing.__version__ == 0.70a1,requests.__version__ == 0.11.2,gevent.__version__ == 0.13.7

Requests async module uses gevent. If you look at the source code of gevent you will see that it monkey patches many of Python's standard library functions, including sleep:
request.async module during import executes:
from gevent import monkey as curious_george
# Monkey-patch.
curious_george.patch_all(thread=False, select=False)
Looking at the monkey.py module of gevent you can see:
https://bitbucket.org/denis/gevent/src/f838056c793d/gevent/monkey.py#cl-128
def patch_time():
"""Replace :func:`time.sleep` with :func:`gevent.sleep`."""
from gevent.hub import sleep
import time
patch_item(time, 'sleep', sleep)
Take a look at the code from the gevent's repository for details.
