Hello,

Does anyone can help me? I a need a solution for this, 'cause i have a
process/daemon, it reaches about 200 zombie processes, after open a new
libvirt connection with qemu+tls.

Best regards,


From the script you've attached:

    $SIG{'CHLD'} = sub { print "receive chld","\n"; };

You should either waitpid() child here or at the end of the script. The former approach won't leave any zombies hanging around, the latter requires you to keep return values of fork(). So I think your script needs to look like this:

$ diff -up test-chldhandle-bug.pl test-chldhandle-bug-fixed.pl

+        do { $kid = waitpid(-1, WNOHANG); } while $kid > 0; };

     while(1){
                print "while...","\n";
