[sysvinit-devel] killall5 does not wak up after sleep 5

[Arshad, Farrukh]

Greetings,

I have created a custom embedded linux distribution for ARM platform using 
Yocto project. My sysv utilities version is 2.88. The problem I am facing is 
when I restart my system and /etc/init.d/sendsigs script is called, it does not 
woke up after a sleep of 5 seconds hence unable to send KILL -9 signal and the 
system hangs in the sleep. I have checked it with the strace sleep 5 and again 
it is stuck in the nanosleep system call. The problem does not seems to have 
any issue with sysv but it looks like scheduler does not wake up the script 
process. I will appreciate any help or pointers about where should I look to 
fix the issue.

Regards,
Farrukh Arshad.
