[zeromq-dev] What eats SIGINT?

[Gavin Henry]

Hi all,

I'm beginning to incorporate zyre into my project and my signal
handlers aren't gracefully shutting down:

https://github.com/SentryPeer/SentryPeer/blob/main/src/sentrypeer.c#L94
https://github.com/SentryPeer/SentryPeer/blob/main/src/signal_handler.c

I thought it was how I was handling threads, so I went to minimal.c example:

https://github.com/zeromq/zyre/blob/master/examples/minimal/minimal.c

and trimmed it down to test:

#include <zyre.h>
#define ROOM "GROUP"

int main (void)
{
    zyre_t *node = zyre_new (NULL);
    assert (node);
    zyre_start (node);
    zyre_join (node, ROOM);


    char name[] = "sentrypeer";
    zyre_shouts (node, ROOM, "Hello from %s", name);

    while (1) {
        sleep (1);
    }
}


When I compile and run above:

gcc -Wall -o minimal minimal.c -lzyre -lczmq
./minimal

Ctrl-C doesn't work and I need to Ctrl-Z then kill -9 on the process.
What is eating SIGINT?

In gdb I can see:
