Hi,
I was trying to upgrade nginx from 1.0.9 to 1.0.10 on-the-fly, using
the process described on the wiki[1], but it looks like it is ignoring
the SIGWINCH signal I send to it.
bender:~# ps ax -H | grep nginx
31603 pts/2 S+ 0:00 grep nginx
32606 ? S 0:00 nginx: master process
/usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx
32607 ? S 9:47 nginx: worker process
31309 ? S 0:00 nginx: master process
/usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx
31310 ? S 0:00 nginx: worker process
bender:~# kill -WINCH 32606 # 32606 is the 1.0.9 master process, 31309
is the 1.0.10 master process
bender:~# ps ax -H | grep nginx
31605 pts/2 S+ 0:00 grep nginx
32606 ? S 0:00 nginx: master process
/usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx
32607 ? S 9:47 nginx: worker process
31309 ? S 0:00 nginx: master process
/usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx
31310 ? S 0:00 nginx: worker process
After a quick look at the code, it looks like this happened because
the 1.0.9 process I am running was started during a previous
1.0.7->1.0.9 on-the-fly upgrade, and the 1.0.9 master process now
thinks it is not daemonized (ngx_daemonized is not set on
initialization if ngx_inherited is set).
I have easily reproduced it by killing nginx completely, making a
on-the-fly 1.0.10->1.0.10 executable upgrade twice. On the first try,
SIGWINCH works; after the first upgrade, SIGWINCH stops working. Full
shell session showing the bug is pasted at the end of my message.
