Dear all, Procd supports instance_writepid and instance_removepid in the file instance.c. The removepid is called when stopping a daemon or restarting it. However, when a daemon dies and it is not configured to respawn the pidfile is not removed.
When other daemon watch the pidfile because they rely on the daemon they cannot rely to stop when the pidfile disappears. This other daemon cannot just continue after procd would respawn the died daemon. Before restarting the procd managed daemon, the depending daemons need to stop. Would a fix in the function instance_exit be the right solution to remove the pid after dying without a configured respawn? Is there a reason to keep a pidfile after a daemon terminates without any procd request. regards, _______________________________________________ Lede-dev mailing list Lede-dev@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/lede-dev
