I have just checked the code and that is not intentional. I may have
overlooked something, as omprog was originally writen to a user request,
but that users disappeared when it was done and nobody else reported much

would be very happy to look into problems that the module may have.
I know that a restart of rsyslog will kill the program specified,
it doesn't actively kill it, but the program will receive end-of-file on
it's input.
will a HUP kill and restart the program?
no
It is slightly off-topic, but since SEC was mentioned in this thread,
then the current version will actually not terminate on EOF on pipe. It
will terminate either on TERM from parent, or with a help of a special
rule that would call exit(0) on no input. Since this is not very
convenient for connecting SEC to rsyslog via memory-based pipe, the new
version of SEC (currently ready and under testing) will have better
support for receiving input over a pipe from rsyslog.
kind regards,

Will rsyslog detect if the program exits and restart it?
yes
