From b7ea06b21456d465f2d9d11358fb803eb277357f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John Kacur Date: Tue, 23 Nov 2021 09:58:58 -0500 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] python-linux-procfs: Propagate error to user if a pid is completed If a pid is completed and disappears a FileNotFoundError will occur because /proc/pid/stat will disappear too. It is not possible to check for the file first because it could still disappear between the time of the check and the time of use. Propagate this error to the user. The user should handle this with a try, except clause and ignore it if an exception occurs.
