Hi,

I get IOError Interrupted system call in pytest-xdist slave. Don't know why, can't see signal anywhere but fail

creating slavegateway on <__main__.Popen2IO instance at 0x20fa2d8>

gateway_base.Unserializer.load(self) can be made work by retry if get IOError with errno == 4

while True:
    opcode = self.stream.read(1)  # Retry this if IOError raised here
    if not opcode:
        raise EOFError

从 gateway_base.Unserializer.load 开始，重点检查报告中指出的 stream.read(1) 调用，并审查那里如何处理 IOError。如果可能，复现 pytest-xdist slave 失败；当反序列化期间发生 Interrupted system call 时不再中止接收器路径，并且正常的消息处理能够继续，即表示完成。
