Research direction

Start by comparing uvloop's Server API with Python 3.13's asyncio.Server.close_clients documentation, using the reported AttributeError as the initial reproduction. Done means uvloop's Server provides close_clients with behavior matching the documented asyncio API; the issue mentions FastAPI and uvicorn as integration contexts.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Hello!
First of all - thanks for the amazing project.

I am using python3.13 and I noticed that uvloop's Server doesn't have close_clients.

Since running projects with fastapi and uvicorn uses uvloop, it means that any code that uses them might not support python3.13.

The exception I receive is:

AttributeError: 'uvloop.loop.Server' object has no attribute 'close_clients'

And in my humble opinion it should behave as https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-eventloop.html#asyncio.Server.close_clients
