Hi The Doctor,

Log rotation for innfeed has been deactivated in STABLE and CURRENT
snapshots for a few months owing to a bug reported by Florian, that
caused innfeed to stop logging after daily log rotation.
INN 2.5.3 is affected by this bug.
I believe the issue is now fixed. I have just committed a patch in both
STABLE and CURRENT. I hope it will properly work at your side tomorrow.

Hi Jesse,
I do not see why innfeed does not properly shut down. It definitively should
stop when innd closes its pipe to innfeed upon reloading.
Maybe people in the inn-workers mailing-list will have ideas for that.

Sujet: Multiple innfeed processes

De : Jesse Rehmer
Pour : Julien ?LIE
Julien,
I sorted out all of the weird CNFS issues I was having previously. Turned out
to be an issue on the SAN which caused a lot of strange server level issues on
the reader machine. I do have an issue on my feeder machine that I'm having
trouble diagnosing/resolving. I'm seeing multiple innfeed processes running
after INN has been up for more than a day or so. Seems to happen when I'm
reloading configurations such as newsfeeds or incoming.conf. The new innfeed
process starts fine but the old one never seems to die on its own. It also
doesn't stop using standard signals via kill. I have to kill -9 the process in
order for it to quit running.
Here is what it ends up looking like at the process level (if I leave this
alone for a few days there will be 4 or 5 innfeed processes running):
news 561 1.4 0.8 172104 34912 ? Ss 00:58 9:39
/usr/local/news/bin/innd
news 7403 0.3 0.0 12504 3004 ? S 08:13 0:54 \_
/usr/local/news/bin/innfeed
news 10971 0.1 0.2 148316 11984 ? S 12:02 0:00 \_ controlchan
news 10972 0.4 0.0 11432 1804 ? S 12:02 0:00 \_
/usr/local/news/bin/innfeed
news 10973 0.0 0.0 4580 1052 ? S 12:02 0:00 \_
/usr/local/news/bin/ninpaths -p -d /usr/local/news/log/path/inpaths.%d
When I do a strace on the old innfeed process I see the following:
[news@usenet ~]$ strace -p 7403
Process 7403 attached - interrupt to quit
select(17, [16], [], [], {7, 37802}) = 0 (Timeout)
select(17, [16], [], [], {30, 0}) = 0 (Timeout)
select(17, [16], [], [], {29, 0}) = 1 (in [16], left {21, 446303})
readv(16, [{"503 time out\r\njfrl2le8023d97mmcu"..., 256}], 1) = 14
sendto(3, "<61>Mar 8 12:07:34 innfeed[7403"..., 143, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) =
143
sendto(3, "<61>Mar 8 12:07:34 innfeed[7403"..., 138, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) =
138
close(16) = 0
select(0, [], [], [], {21, 0}
When this first started I thought it was happening due to certain configuration
parameters that I had tweaked, but I have since reverted those back to defaults
with no effect. I tried hunting around to see if anyone had run into this
before but came up empty. Have you ever seen this behavior?
Regards,
Jesse Rehmer
