Alan had me on the look out for dropping bytes regarding my recent "TCP bug" report. I'm not sure I found that, but this inconsistency seems "bad" to me. The worse part is the behaviour is non-deterministic! Note: the system was mostly idle at the time.
root@syntropy # ps aux|grep 27231 root 27231 0.0 2.1 828 324 p7 S 23:28 0:00 /usr/sbin/radiusd root@syntropy # ps aux|grep 27231 root 27231 0.0 2.1 828 324 p7 S 23:28 0:00 /usr/sbin/radiusd root@syntropy # ps aux|grep 27231 root 27231 0.0 2.1 828 324 p7 S 23:28 0:00 /usr/sbin/radiusd root 27239 0.0 2.5 916 376 p7 S 23:28 0:00 grep 27231
Why doesn't the grep process show up each time???
Can others reproduce this?
This is under 2.0.20. It a fairly standard Pentium (no SMP, NE2000 not even ifconfig'd, Adaptac SCSI). Minimal kernel.
