relay with 0.4.5.1-alpha-dev (git-dd119b27) ignores -INT and -USR1
It happened here 2x in a row that a relay here could only be terminated (-HUP worked all the time for what it is worth). OS is a hardened Linux.
FWIW there are 2 relays running at the same hardware under a hardened Gentoo Linux. The one which is listing at default ports (80 and 443) behaves fine, the other (9001 and 9030 and being a FallbackDir too) however is affected by this issue. Update: It is independent from being a FallbackDir or not, with bc6c37b2 now the other relay refused to restart - and today -TERM was ignored too at 1 relay.
Nowadays a kill -HUP is ignored after an uptime of only few hours. I use this cronjob for now to keep both relays aware of signals
@hourly (/sbin/rc-service tor reload; /sbin/rc-service tor2 reload) 1>/dev/null
