正确配置 signal.setitimer()

Question

我很难弄清楚程序无限期暂停的原因，即表现出类似无限循环的行为

def class foo():
    '''
    ...
    '''
    def __catcher(self, signum, _):
        print "TIME OUT EXCEEDED"
        # Reset timer
        signal.setitimer(signal.ITIMER_REAL, 0.0, _SENDERTMOUT_)
        # Do something 
        for i in range (self.base, self.next_seqno):
            '''
            ...
            '''
    def start(self):
        while something:
            '''
            Start doing some work
            '''
            if self.base == self.next_seqno:
                old_handler = signal.signal(signal.SIGALRM, self.__catcher) 
                signal.setitimer(signal.ITIMER_REAL, _SENDERTMOUT_)

            '''
            Do more work until timer goes off
            '''

也许我不知道执行的顺序，当start()中timer超时的时候，程序跳转到__catcher()，对吧？然后定时器被重置，剩下的语句，那么程序在哪里恢复执行？

感谢您的帮助！

我猜它会回到计时器中断的地方？
