Subject: Cleaning up semaphores
Recently I discovered FAILs in my smokes and the reason was that the system refused to allocate semaphores or message queues or some such IPC stuff. So I knew I had to watch out for leaks in tests and this is my story: Show quoted text

I think I have to reopen but maybe it deserves a new ticket too. I have reached full semaphore space again: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2008/02/msg1011767.html I cleaned it up and ran make test for Apache::Session again and found again a leak of two semaphores. Maybe this is a different leak this time? This time the test failed due to "semctl not implemented" (last time it succeeded). CPAN::Reporter sent a report out but I do not yet have the URL.

Check for semctl availability was added in 1.86_01. 1.86_03 (1.87) has this test disabled. -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net
