Subject: what causes SIGTERMs?
Date: Tue, 8 Jul 2003 14:17:55 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <00be01c34553$57ea97a0$caba0ba4@uwe.ac.uk> (raw)
Hi All
I wonder whether you could help me? I have a problem; I'm running an
application I've written in C under Slackware 7.1 Occasionally it receives
a SIGTERM.
* In what circumstances do processes get sent a SIGTERM?
* Am I correct that this is unlikely to be issued in response to a bug in my
code?
* How can I find which process is issuing the SIGTERM against my code?
* Are there any changes I can make to the execution environment / logging /
gcc compilation options to help me find out why this is happening?
If anybody can give me some ideas, or suggest directions to investigate, I'd
be hugely thankful!
Just as a bit of background; the platform is a robot on which I have
recently fitted some new hardware. The SIGTERM problem started at roughly
the same time. If I catch the SIGTERM, and do nothing apart from continue
my application... I then catch more SIGTERMs, followed by a SIGKILL!
regards
Matt
