Ok my problem goes like this :
i'm, at the present time, writing a concurrent server communicating
with his clients through TCP/IP. One part of the code is :
if signal(SIGCHLD, sighandler) < 0
{
...
}
...
socket(...); /* those are classics */
bind(...);
Listen(...);
while (1)
{
if ((sd = accept(...)) < 0)
{
printf("accept error\n");
/* i have to go on since its a concurrent server */
}
....
if ((pid = fork()) == 0)
{
/* child process */
}
}
I use the SIGCHLD handling to maintain a table of the running childs.
But when a child finish, (SIGCHLD is delivered to the father process)
he send me thousand "accept error" until i kill (-9) the father process.
And when i disable the SIGCHLD handling, everything is ok !
Can someone tell me why ? and what can i do ?
thanx and sorry for this litterature :-)
