Summary
uvloop.loop.Server(None) constructs an object, but calling close() on it terminates the interpreter.
I found this while fuzzing Python C extension modules.
I realize this is not a realistic input or usage pattern, but I would expect a Python exception rather than a process crash.
Versions
uvloop 0.22.1, CPython 3.12.3, Debian 12 x86_64, glibc 2.36
Reproducer
from uvloop.loop import Server
server = Server(None)
server.close()
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
ASan/UBSan result
I built uvloop 0.22.1 from source with Clang 18 using ASan and UBSan instrumentation.
ASan reports a read from address 0x158 on the Server.close() path:
AddressSanitizer:DEADLYSIGNAL
ERROR: AddressSanitizer: SEGV on unknown address 0x000000000158
The signal is caused by a READ memory access.
Hint: address points to the zero page.

SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: SEGV in PyType_IsSubtype
The sanitizer process exits with code 134 after ASan aborts.
UBSan did not emit a separate diagnostic before the ASan failure.
