No, I'm not sending a signal within a signal. The signal handler is this: pthread_mutex_lock(&keep_running_mutex); KEEP_RUNNING = 0; pthread_cond_signal(&keep_running_cond); pthread_mutex_unlock(&keep_running_mutex); This works fine, but at some point it seems to stop working. The app just continues to run as if it never received the -2 signal. We have to use a kill -9 to kill it, which we want to avoid because this prevents our shutdown code from executing. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
