The following reply was made to PR threads/84778; it has been noted by GNATS. From: freebsd@spatula.net To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org Cc: freebsd-java@freebsd.org Subject: Re: threads/84778: libpthread busy loop/hang with Java when handling signals and Runtime.exec Date: Tue, 6 Dec 2005 15:16:16 -0800 (PST) Another bit of information of interest: sending the process a kill -stop (-17) after trying to stop it with ^Z *will* cause the process to stop. Sending it a kill -stop without hitting ^Z will also cause the process to stop normally. In either case, however, resuming from the shell with fg will cause the same infinite-loop behaviour. Resuming with a kill -19 will also cause the infinite-loop behaviour. Sending a regular kill signal also causes the infinite-loop behaviour. The process has to be killed with a kill -9 in all cases once this behaiour starts. -- "The aptly-named morons.org is an obscenity-laced screed..." -- Robert P.
