While playing with routing (zebra) and PPP I regularly see this message appearing. It always happens when pppd terminates a connection, e.g:
Dec 3 23:09:08 mimas pppd[784]: Modem hangup Dec 3 23:09:08 mimas pppd[784]: Connection terminated. Dec 3 23:09:08 mimas pppd[784]: Connect time 2.0 minutes. Dec 3 23:09:08 mimas pppd[784]: Sent 499 bytes, received 977 bytes. Dec 3 23:09:08 mimas pppd[822]: Hangup (SIGHUP) Dec 3 23:09:08 mimas kernel: waitpid(823) failed, -512 Dec 3 23:09:08 mimas pppd[784]: Hangup (SIGHUP) Dec 3 23:09:08 mimas pppd[784]: Exit.
The (incoming) PPP connection is tunnelled through a telnet connection so there are some other processes involved.
On the outgoing side (other system also running 2.4.0-test11) I sometimes see the same message, e.g:
Nov 29 23:37:08 iapetus pppd[1777]: Connection terminated. Nov 29 23:37:08 iapetus pppd[1777]: Connect time 2.5 minutes. Nov 29 23:37:08 iapetus pppd[1777]: Sent 85 bytes, received 87 bytes. Nov 29 23:37:08 iapetus pppd[1777]: Exit. Nov 29 23:37:08 iapetus kernel: waitpid(1857) failed, -512
