Issue #2556 has been updated by vsrinivas.

Commit e0836e94092043dfdc5c34d00c214369c411de76 in -master should resolve this 
issue.

When traced, truss marked tmux to stop on certain events (syscall entry/exit, 
...); truss was then killed. The close of the procfs filedescriptor through 
which truss controlled tmux should have unset the stop latch and woken tmux. 
However, procfs's close() VOP was not waking on the same variable that 
stopevent() was sleeping on, so the process was ready to wake but wouldn't do 
so.

Needs to be MFCed.

Bug #2556: DragonFly v3.5.0.81.gd3479 - Process signal weirdness

Hi,

tmux has a memory leak somewhere and it was causing a lot of swap memory to be 
used. I started using truss(1) to see what it was doing and after 3-4 tracing 
attempts the tmux process was stuck in status "stopevent". After sending to it 
all sorts of signals (CONT, HUP, KILL) the process is kept stopped in the same 
situation. I also tried disabling tracing with ktrace(1) but it didn't help. 

Eventually I tried to reboot the virtual machine but it got stuck for around 10 
minutes without actually being able to shutdown. Last step was dropping to DDB 
and producing a dump. Dump is available on leaf on demand. See below the 
backtrace of the thread involved (tmux process)

Best regards,
Antonio Huete
