The main loop in the master is as follows:

forever {
    set an alarm for 1000s
    do an EPOLL_WAIT for up to 500s and handle any child process
        events, or short-term timer requests that are implemented
        around the EPOLL_WAIT timer.
    respond to sighup (the sighup flag is set by a signal handler)
    respond to sigchld (the sigchld flag is set by a signal handler)
}

It would be worthwhile to see what strace reports when you leave
it running. If strace reports nothing in 500s then EPOLL_WAIT is
not working. If strace reports nothing after 1000s then the alarm
timer is also not working.
