I add a commit to access the multiprocessing context explicitly. The context instance is set to spawn
above separating from the global default context.
import multiprocessing as mp
mp.set_start_method("spawn") # set global default context
# Use the global default context
process = mp.Process(...)
pipe = mp.Pipe(...)
lock = mp.Lock(...)
vs.
import multiprocessing as mp
ctx = mp.get_context("spawn")
# Use the spawn context explicitly
process = ctx.Process(...)
pipe = ctx.Pipe(...)
lock = ctx.Lock(...)
If this change is not desired or makes the code too complex, I can remove the last commit in the PR. cc @cclauss
