From 27b372c1c2cf634b865a70586cbb38f1acc772d9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Jan=20Kl=C3=B6tzke?= Date: Mon, 23 Oct 2017 08:57:09 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] shutdown: prevent core dumps in final shutdown stage If the system is finally shutting down it makes no sense to write core dumps as the last remaining processes are terminated / killed. This is especially significant in case of a "force reboot" where all processes are hit concurrently with a SIGTERM and no orderly shutdown of processes takes place. --- src/core/shutdown.c | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/core/shutdown.c b/src/core/shutdown.c index ffab4de1013..b1f581b5482 100644 --- a/src/core/shutdown.c +++ b/src/core/shutdown.c @@ -323,6 +323,9 @@ int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { if (!in_container) sync_with_progress(); + /* Prevent coredumps */ + disable_core_dumps(); + log_info("Sending SIGTERM to remaining processes..."); broadcast_signal(SIGTERM, true, true);
