instead of `bool`, as there are many contradicting signatures: <https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html#socket.socket.setblocking> names the arguments `flags` and uses `false` in the descriptive text, but uses `bool` in the given examples. <https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/socketmodule.c#L149> uses `bool` in the module documentation, but the internal wrapper in <https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/socketmodule.c#L658> uses `int` which is called by the public function in <https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/socketmodule.c#L2783> using `PyLong_AsLong()` to get the value of `flags` as an `int`. So `int` is correct as `bool` is a subtype of it and gets promoted to it automatically. Signed-off-by: Philipp Hahn <hahn@univention.de>

I'm -1 on this change. The argument is clearly used as a boolean value. With the same justification we could change nearly all |

instead of
bool, as there are many contradicting signatures:https://docs.python.org/3/library/socket.html#socket.socket.setblocking
names the arguments
flagsand usesfalsein the descriptive text,but uses
boolin the given examples.https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/socketmodule.c#L149
uses
boolin the module documentation, but the internal wrapper inhttps://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/socketmodule.c#L658
uses
int, which is called by the public function inhttps://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Modules/socketmodule.c#L2783
using
PyLong_AsLong()to get anint.So
intis correct asboolis a subtype of it and gets promoted to itautomatically.
