--- Comment #1 from Conrad Meyer <c...@freebsd.org> --- > the unreaped child process remains present until the parent terminates (i.e. > the referenced target pid does exist) I don't know if it's true that we consider zombie processes "to exist" in the sense of this manual page. In implementation, we don't — setpgid(2) uses pfind(9), which ignores zombie processes, instead of pfind_any(9), which can locate zombie processes. This is relatively common: e.g., there are 30 invocations of pfind() in the core kernel, but only 5 of pfind_any(). I'm not sure this behavior difference with Linux matters. Can you explain more about why you think this is a bug? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
