https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D212829 --- Comment #5 from prj@rootwyrm.com --- Yes; after some discussion with feld@ I actually realized that this issue is the actual root cause of problems I've been having with socat in my own environment. The 'proper' way to terminate socat is SIGKILL, not SIGTERM. R= ight now it sounds like daemon(8) isn't even working as intended and desired; now we've got cases that are exposing further shortcomings. (And no, I'm not us= ing rc.subr.)=20 What's supposed to happen is that when I issue a SIGKILL to daemon(8) it is supposed to pass that SIGKILL through to the child immediately, then termin= ate itself. Basically any signal should be passed through verbatim, then handle= d by daemon(8) itself. That doesn't appear to be what's happening; at least not reliably. So, it seems to be a mix of bug and shortcoming. This definitely warrants some further discussion to see what the preferred resolution to both issues would be. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
