Bug description:
KqueueSelector.select()
may not get all events if a fd is registered for both read and write.
kqueue requires to register two filters, one for read and one for write. But KqueueSelector.select() calls kqueue.control() counting the number of registered fds, not the filters. As a result a single call to select() won't return all the available events.
>>> import socket, selectors
>>> sel = selectors.KqueueSelector()
>>> s1, s2 = socket.socketpair()
>>> sel.register(s1, selectors.EVENT_READ | selectors.EVENT_WRITE)
SelectorKey(fileobj=<socket.socket fd=4, family=1, type=1, proto=0>, fd=4, events=3, data=None)
>>> s2.send(b"foo")
3
>>> sel.select()
[(SelectorKey(fileobj=<socket.socket fd=4, family=1, type=1, proto=0>, fd=4, events=3, data=None), 2)]
>>> sel.select()
[(SelectorKey(fileobj=<socket.socket fd=4, family=1, type=1, proto=0>, fd=4, events=3, data=None), 1)]
(Note that the two events are only visible on two subsequent selects)
For users like asyncio, this might mean missing a loop cycle or more (depending on number of registered readers/writers and ready events) before an event is seen. I previously said that this might cause deadlocks but I could not produce an example where a read/write event is never seen.
