Summary

0001636: pfsetvlan coredump when stoping packetfence service

Description

I am using centos 6.3 with coredump enabled
every time I stop the packetfence I see coredump fromm pfsetvlan
the reason is because it send signal 6 in the end
END {
    if ( ( !$man ) && ( !$help ) ) {
        $logger->info("stopping pfsetvlan");
        deletepid();
        foreach my $t (@completeThreadList) {
            $t->detach;
        }
        kill 6, -$$;
    }
}

signal 6 is SIGABRT which by default action is to terminate the process and dump core
see http://linux.about.com/od/commands/l/blcmdl7_signal.htm [^]
I am not sure why pfsetvlan need to kill it self and it is not gracefully shutdown but if it is needed it is better to use SIGTERM to just terminate the process and not coredump
