Hi Iñaki,
i've not yet looked into your patch, if its not that invasive and fairly easy
to implement (as mentioned in later messages) its fine with me. Implementing
it in the init script would be indeed more like a workaround. It would not
help in the case when the daemon gets started directly.
Hi Henning, IMHO it's not invasive (in fact I've seen similar pipe
mechanism in other servers).
Please take a look to the patches (is very few code).
However note that Marius has fixed a small bug (a fd closed twice by
the main process) and has also added a select() to allow timeout when
the parent process reads from the pipe.
Thanks a lot.
