[pkg-lighttpd] Bug#427491: lighttpd: 100% cpu utilization <= infinite loop

[Olaf van der Spek]

Package: lighttpd
Version: 1.4.13-4
Severity: important

Hi,

Lighttpd entered an infinite loop and uses 100% CPU. Strace shows the loop:
time(NULL)                              = 1180962549
poll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}, {fd=5, events=POLLIN}, {fd=11, events=POLLIN}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=9, events=POLLIN}, 
{fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, {fd=-1}, ...], 71, 1000) = 1
ioctl(12, FIONREAD, [0])                = 0
read(12, "", 2303)                      = 0
time(NULL)                              = 1180962549

fd 9 is ready but isn't serviced, so the next call to poll returns immediately.
