Hello Wensong,
I received since last few months lot of bug report from Keepalived users
using VRRP with ipvs syncd option. Finally today, I found time to look at
this issue and have a patch for syncd code.
While starting a kernel syncd thread, we must reap the fork_sync_thread
since this will produce zombies while returning to main calling point.
Since syncd parent is the init process, we don't need to reap it during the
syncd shutdown but we must reap it at starting time.
You will find bellow a patch to fixe this and a quick trash C code to argue
and highlight the need. The patch is against 2.6.7, same patch must be
applied to 2.4 branch.
Best regards,
Alexandre
