Hello there,
in my application, a user tread is starting another thread with
clone(). This thread is interacting with the rt-kernel thread.
when the new thread exits, is stays in memory as zombie, after a time
I've got a lot of zombies around. Are they decreasing the performance
of the whole RT-application? Can the system run out of memory by too
much zombies?
What is the reason for the zombies at all? I have a long running
master process and from time to time I start a thread with clone().
Every thread, (which I close with exit()) stays as a zombie unless the
master process is killed.
Bernd
