Hello,
I frequently need to connect and disconnect on my AM3517 boards console. After some connection and disconnection, I see that number of running "-sh" processes are increasing as seen below:
PID PPID USER STAT VSZ %MEM %CPU COMMAND
1334 1327 root R 3056 1% 0% top
1225 1 root S 2868 1% 0% /usr/sbin/telnetd

1264 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1327 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1284 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1296 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1274 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1278 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1303 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1307 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1313 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1323 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1270 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1287 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1291 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1319 1225 root S 3056 1% 0% -sh
1230 1 root S 2928 1% 0% /sbin/syslogd -n -C64 -m 20
1232 1 root S 2864 1% 0% /sbin/klogd -n
1237 1 nobody S 2116 1% 0% /usr/sbin/thttpd -d /srv/www
516 1 root S 1900 1% 0% /sbin/udevd -d
Worst of all i cannot kill those processes with "killall -sh" command. I can kill them one by one by their pids but this is not practical.. Is there a way to kill these processes without rebooting the board?
Thanks, regards.
