Description: I'm sorry, my English is poor.
After many access to dbmail-imapd, somtimes the count of grandchild processes does not decrease to NCHILDREN all the time. I could know by using strace command that the child process of dbmail-imapd stopped at the waitpid() as follows. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# strace -p 21208 Process 21208 attached - interrupt to quit waitpid(3422, I sent SIGTERM to the grandchild process(in the above example:pid = 3422) with kill command, then the child process resume and the count of grandchild processes decreased. I think this cause is that the waitpid function is called without WNOHANG option in the pool.c:reap_child(). Is this intentional? Any idea? ====================================================================== Relationships ID Summary ---------------------------------------------------------------------- related to 0000361 IMAP zombies after about a day. ====================================================================== Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 12-Jun-06 09:22 ryo New Issue 12-Jun-06 18:11 aaron Relationship added related to 0000361 ======================================================================
