Dnsmasq gets started twice, LEDE SNAPSHOT r4234-1422dab66e

Installing and Using OpenWrt

Hi,

in current snapshots I observed on different boxes that the dnsmasq process gets started twice:

The regular process as dnsmasq user and a "stealth" one (with full resources!) as root user. In ubus/procd I see only the regular process:

root@blackhole:~# ubus call service list '{"name":"dnsmasq"}'
{
	"dnsmasq": {
		"instances": {
			"cfg02411c": {
				"running": true,
				"pid": 10776,
				"command": [
					"\/usr\/sbin\/dnsmasq",
					"-C",
					"\/var\/etc\/dnsmasq.conf.cfg02411c",
					"-k",
					"-x",
					"\/var\/run\/dnsmasq\/dnsmasq.cfg02411c.pid"
				],
				"term_timeout": 5,
				"respawn": {
					"threshold": 3600,
					"timeout": 5,
					"retry": 5
				}
			}
		}
	}
}

Maybe a procd or dnsmasq change!?

Anyone else?

Well it's introduced & enabled by default 2 days ago with this commit.

Hopefully this will be reverted or disabled by default, see my comment here:

Update:

the dnsmasq maintainer provided a fix in trunk: https://git.lede-project.org/?p=source.git;a=commit;h=8b486ec2b52056b737a4ce64a2040a9a27a6bd60
