Machine Type: i686-pc-linux-gnu
Bash Version: 3.2
Patch Level: 48
Release Status: release
Description:
[See subject for test case.
Many scripts sit in a loop asking for user input - if script is
run in bg/without tty (by mistake) then high cpu usage results]
Repeat-By:
[while true ;do read </dev/null ;done]
Fix:
[ bash/the read code could
detect there's no stdin and sleep for 1-2 seconds]
