Description:

Bug ID 1355149: The icrd_child might block signals to child processes ... Symptoms ... When icrd_child is abruptly killed with SIGKILL signal, the underlying tmsh call is not killed respectively which is leaving the traces of the file descriptors to /var/system/tmp directory files. ... Thus causing /var partition disk out of use. ... Impact ... The /var partition disk is out of use. ... Conditions ... When the transitive call to tmsh command through icrd_child is invoked by restjavad module, and it ended as a fatal error or took more than the configured timeout value, restjavad issues SIGKILL command to icrd_child to force-kill the process. ... But, it is not killing the child processes (tmsh) initiated from icrd_child process. ... Workaround ... Use the following command: [killall -9 tmsh] to kill all the stale tmsh processes and clean up the files in [/var/system/tmp] directory
