This could be a combination of several factors. First, for some reason nc gets EINTR in one of its system calls (poll(2)). Second, nc treats EINTR as a serious error and exits. Third, this is what happens on the dtrace side: 30495 100974 dtrace CALL write(0x1,0x8035c2000,0x1a) 30495 100974 dtrace GIO fd 1 wrote 26 bytes "libc.so.7`__sys_accept+0xc" 30495 100974 dtrace RET write 26/0x1a 30495 100974 dtrace CALL write(0x1,0x8035c2000,0x1) 30495 100974 dtrace GIO fd 1 wrote 1 byte " " 30495 100974 dtrace RET write 1 30495 100974 dtrace CALL thr_kill(0x1c129,SIGUSR1) 30495 100974 dtrace RET thr_kill 0 30495 100974 dtrace CALL ptrace(PT_IO,0x771e,0x7fffffffbb10,0) 30495 100974 dtrace RET ptrace 0 30495 100974 dtrace CALL ptrace(PT_IO,0x771e,0x7fffffffbb10,0) 30495 114985 dtrace RET _umtx_op -1 errno 4 Interrupted system call 30495 100974 dtrace RET ptrace 0 30495 114985 dtrace PSIG SIGUSR1 caught handler=0x80085d610 mask=0x5ffefedf code=0x10007 30495 100974 dtrace CALL _umtx_op(0x802007668,0x15,0x1,0,0) 30495 114985 dtrace CALL sigprocmask(SIG_SETMASK,0x7fffffbfd9fc,0) 30495 100974 dtrace RET _umtx_op 0 30495 114985 dtrace RET sigprocmask 0 30495 100974 dtrace CALL _umtx_op(0x800a71778,0xf,0,0,0) 30495 114985 dtrace CALL sigreturn(0x7fffffbfd630) 30495 114985 dtrace RET sigreturn JUSTRETURN 30495 114985 dtrace CALL ptrace(PT_CONTINUE,0x771e,0x1,0) 30495 114985 dtrace RET ptrace 0 30495 114985 dtrace CALL ptrace(PT_IO,0x771e,0x7fffffbfdee0,0) 30495 114985 dtrace RET ptrace -1 errno 16 Device busy 30495 114985 dtrace CALL _umtx_op(0x80200d668,0x15,0x1,0,0) 30495 114985 dtrace RET _umtx_op 0 30495 114985 dtrace CALL madvise(0x803c52000,0x11000,MADV_FREE) 30495 114985 dtrace RET madvise 0 30495 114985 dtrace CALL madvise(0x803c1d000,0x14000,MADV_FREE) 30495 114985 dtrace RET madvise 0 30495 114985 dtrace CALL madvise(0x803c07000,0x1000,MADV_FREE) 30495 114985 dtrace RET madvise 0 30495 114985 dtrace CALL madvise(0x8037fc000,0x2000,MADV_FREE) 30495 114985 dtrace RET madvise 0 30495 114985 dtrace CALL madvise(0x8037f2000,0x8000,MADV_FREE) 30495 114985 dtrace RET madvise 0 30495 114985 dtrace CALL madvise(0x8037f0000,0x1000,MADV_FREE) 30495 100974 dtrace RET _umtx_op 0 30495 114985 dtrace RET madvise 0 30495 100974 dtrace CALL ptrace(PT_DETACH,0x771e,0,0) 30495 114985 dtrace CALL madvise(0x8037e0000,0x9000,MADV_FREE) 30495 100974 dtrace RET ptrace -1 errno 3 No such process Looks like something fishy happens when that SIGUSR1 is generated.
