Gunicorn worker fails to boot due to NotImplementedError

[codebanesr]

Description:
I'm encountering a NotImplementedError: unsupported platform which causes my Gunicorn worker process to fail. This seems to be originating from the httpx/trio libraries. Has anyone else experienced similar issues?

Error Traceback:

The error originates here, and it only happens when i try to run the app with gunicorn and eventlet

This sounds incredibly similar to #2848.

EDIT:
In #2848, we found out that basically gevent monkey-patches some things in the select module and that breaks things for trio. Apparently this is intended according to gevent/gevent#2008.

According to gunicorn docs (https://docs.gunicorn.org/en/stable/settings.html#worker-class),
apparently you might want to create a subclass for gunicorn.workers.base.Worker that uses trio

EDIT II:
It might be worth looking into https://github.com/pgjones/hypercorn, which is also a wsgi server. I've personally had a lot of success working with it (my project sane scanner server uses it), and it has built-in support for a trio worker class.

right yeah, if we're getting here in the logic then we're neither on windows nor linux (true), and the select module does not appear to have kqueue (so apparently gevent.select does not have kqueue either. So indeed similar to #2848, but would not be resolved by #2928.

Yeah in #2928 I could make things work via gevent.monkey.get_original but I don't think that's really the right behavior. That will make trio.run block, I think.

Not entirely sure what is the best outcome to have here.
