File descriptor leak if view compaction is cancelled ----------------------------------------------------
Key: COUCHDB-1384 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1384 Project: CouchDB Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 1.2 Reporter: Filipe Manana Priority: Critical Fix For: 1.2 Attachments: 0001-Close-view-compaction-file-when-compaction-is-cancel.patch If a view compaction is canceled, the compact file's fd remains open as long as the view group is alive. This is because the couch_file the compactor uses is spawn_linked by the view group and not linked to the compactor process, therefore when the compactor is shutdown the corresponding couch_file is not shutdown. The view group doesn't keep track of the compact file's couch_file, so it can't explicitly shutdown it either. This affects only the 1.2.x branch and is addressed by simply linking the file process to the compactor process. Patch attached. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
