[Bug java/33218] New: Process.waiFor() Process.destroy() misbehave for childs which are not reacting to Ctrl+C SIGQUIT

["cyberflex at mail dot ru" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

When creating process (Process p = ...) which do not respond to Ctrl+C
then behavior of destroy or waitFor or both is incorrect.

Process blocking/discarding signal sent by Ctrl+C is not killed by destroy().
(The Process.destroy() supposed (IMHO) to kill the child process forcibly.)

After calling destroy() other method waitFor() returns immediately instead of
waiting (survived after the signal) process completion forever.

Such behavior looks to be such  a discrepancy.


Test case:
I encounted the problem when used following command line
rfcomm listen -i hci0 /dev/rfcomm0 6

rfcomm doesn't react to Ctrl+C till external connection is accepted.

Program code:

Process p =    <rfcomm ...>
p.destroy();
p.waitFor()
System.out.println("waitFor completed");





ps ax | grep rfcomm


Workaround for application:
kill such processes explicitly with "kill -9" or
kill subchildren of shell scripts by themselves using shell "trap" command.


Not sure that the issue exists in 4.2.x, I haven't one to test with
architectures I use.
