Defect report from : Andrew Josey , The Open Group
(Please direct followup comments direct to yyyyyyyyyyyyyy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx)
@ page 203 line 6879 section close objection {pin4u.00068}
Problem:
Defect code : 1. Error
The Open Group Base working group has detected
a defect in this section of text relating to close
when fildes refers to the master side of a psuedo-terminal.
The current text doesn't match historic PTY behavior in 4.3BSD or
UNIX SVR4. (On those systems, the SIGHUP signal is sent to the
controlling process associated with a PTY device; not directly to
the entire process group.)
The Base WG believe that the behavior of pseudo-terminals and
regular terminals should behave as much alike as possible in this
case and proposes the attached change to achieve that and
match historical behavior.
Action:
Replace the XSI shaded sentence commencing on line 6879 with:
"If fildes refers to the master side of a pseudo-terminal, and this
is the last close, a SIGHUP signal shall be sent to the controlling
process, if any, for which the slave side of the pseudo-terminal is
the controlling terminal."
