Bug#309582: p3scan: hangs while getting new ip

[Luc Milland]

Hi,
I have the same problem and adding this script to /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/
seems to fix the problem :

---code---

#!/bin/sh -e

### /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/p3scan


# test if p3scan is running
is_running() {
        RUNNING=""
        if [ -f /var/run/p3scan/p3scan.pid ]; then
                pid=$(cat /var/run/p3scan/p3scan.pid)
# get the pid if exists
                exe=$(ls -l /proc/$pid/exe 2>/dev/null | sed 's/.* //')
                if [ "X$exe" = "X/usr/sbin/p3scan" ]; then
# check if we have the good pid
                        RUNNING="Y"
                fi
        fi
        logger p3scan ip-up "is_running" : $RUNNING
}

# peaceful p3scan stop
cool_stop() {
        logger p3scan ip-up "cool_stop"
#       /etc/init.d/p3scan stop
        /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d p3scan stop
}

# p3scan violent death
violent_stop() {
        logger p3scan ip-up "violent_stop"
        kill -9 $pid
        rm -f /var/run/p3scan/p3scan.pid
}

## Main loop
is_running
if [ -n "$RUNNING" ]; then
        cool_stop
        sleep 5
        is_running
                if [ -n "$RUNNING" ]; then
                violent_stop
                fi
fi
# restart
# /etc/init.d/p3scan start
/usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d p3scan start
exit 0

----end code-----

I'm not sure if the "violent_stop" function is necessary, but I added it
since the only thing to do when p3scan hangs this way is to kill the
process.
Hope this help.

Cheers,
