I split this fix out, so this PR is easier to review: #95009

this was patching the wrong attribute - asyncio calls asyncio.get_child_watcher().__enter__().is_active()

LGTM. We'll probably merge this ASAP.

This same function is also introduced by @kumaraditya303's PR GH-98024 (which uses PidfdChildWatcher when supported). I propose to refactor things so that everything uses Kumar's version. We can do that in Kumar's PR once this PR is merged.

Curious why we can't pass the loop as an argument as well? (Though maybe that creates an unhealthy self-reference to the loop.)

Not sure what's wrong with the docs build.

Reverted the "fix" because apparently it was caused by an unrelated commit in main.

Please do. You might need to rebase this PR to the latest main.

The macOS build hit some GitHub Actions limit. I'm going to merge without waiting for it.

There is no reason for this watcher to be attached to any particular loop.
This should make it safe to use regardless of the lifetime of the event loop running in the main thread
(relative to other loops).

> PidfdChildWatcher is a “Goldilocks” child watcher implementation. It doesn’t require signals or threads, doesn’t interfere with any processes launched outside the event loop, and scales linearly with the number of subprocesses launched by the event loop. The main disadvantage is that pidfds are specific to Linux, and only work on recent (5.3+) kernels.
