Hello, NetBSD Users! I can't get /bin/sh to trap the SIGHUP signal on amd64 NetBSD 6.1_STABLE. Does anyone know why?
Here's a test program exhibiting the behavior: === test-program === #!/bin/sh trap 'echo SIGHUP; exit 1' 1 sleep 3600 & wait ==================== I start the test program in one terminal like this: $ ./test-program And then in another terminal, I find the process ID, 354 in this case, and send it the SIGHUP signal: $ kill -1 354 Nothing happens; test-program continues running. If I replace running sleep in the background and waiting with the following: === test-program-mod === #!/bin/sh trap 'echo SIGHUP; exit 1' 1 while true; do sleep 1 done ======================== It responds to a SIGHUP and exits. So, is something wrong with the wait command in /bin/sh? Thank you! Lewis
