Subject: can't use IPC::Cmd->run_forked in the first process of a container
Date: Tue, 18 Oct 2016 12:28:53 +0200
To: bug-ipc-cmd [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Luciano Rocha <luciano.rocha [...] booking.com>
Hi, When using docker or similar container technologies, the program executed runs with pid = 1. That is common in container land, the goal is to have only a service per container, so it doesn't make sense to have a full init system configured. But IPC::Cmd::open3_run is coded in a way that, if the process running it has parent pid equal to 1, then it considers itself an orphan and kills itself and its session. The following patch fixes that by checking if the parent pid changed at all. Regards, -- Luciano Rocha

Many apologies for the tardiness of applying this. I have applied it as https://github.com/jib/ipc-cmd/commit/859a939c306a609c4184d2d4b1f6adf3db0e6658 and it has been incorporated into the 1.02 release which should be on CPAN shortly. Cheers.
