Hello List!

I deployed a dnsmasq installation[0] in a Docker container that is built on top of debian and the s6-overlay software. It also contains a custom software that reads data from a mariadb and writes the dnsmasq config files.

This software will then send the HUP signal to dnsmasq when the config files change.

The problem will then appear one to three days later and dnsmasq will just stop working. The process won't exit, and doesn't react to signals anymore. Only using `kill` with SIGKILL will stop dnsmasq, which is then restarted by s6. dnsmasq will not answer any DHCP or DNS requests in that time.

Is that a known bug? Is this a new one? Can i somehow help reproducing/debugging the bug? I have experience in C development, so i can use gdb if it is required/wanted.

Best regards
- Felix "xq" Queißner
