https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D251227 --- Comment #1 from Conrad Meyer <cem@freebsd.org> --- > the unreaped child process remains present until the parent terminates (i= .e. the referenced target pid does exist) I don't know if it's true that we consider zombie processes "to exist" in t= he sense of this manual page. In implementation, we don't =E2=80=94 setpgid(2= ) uses pfind(9), which ignores zombie processes, instead of pfind_any(9), which can locate zombie processes. This is relatively common: e.g., there are 30 invocations of pfind() in the core kernel, but only 5 of pfind_any(). I'm not sure this behavior difference with Linux matters. Can you explain = more about why you think this is a bug? --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
