Description freebsd 2024-11-11 16:28:09 UTC 
Created attachment 255099 [details]
basic minimal rc.d script for illustration purposes

Hi there,
attachment `testd.sh` minimal rc.d script that starts `daemon` for `env` which always exits (just to illustrate), `-r` restarts `env` but `daemon` doesn't reacts to SIGTERM in that mode which is the signal sent on `service testd stop`, so it's hanging on waiting for PID indefinite:
```
~# service testd onestop
Stopping testd.
Waiting for PIDS: 19035^C
```

think there is a race condition for when `daemon` receives SIGTERM but in a state when there is no child yet
