Managing Zombie Processes in Containers: A Shoreline Approach
In containerized environments, the primary process bears the crucial duty of overseeing all subordinate processes. Yet, poorly devised primary processes may falter in efficiently handling the conclusion of child processes, resulting in the emergence of orphaned processes. These residual processes linger within the kernel process table, steadily depleting system resources until the table reaches its limits. Consequently, the kernel loses its ability to initiate fresh processes within the container, posing a significant risk to its operational integrity.
