From: Michael Welsh Duggan <mwd <at> cert.org> To: bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org Subject: 27.0.50; SIGTERM in dconf worker Date: Tue, 26 Mar 2019 10:39:29 -0400
I work on a system that runs for months that I reach though a system that reboots regularly. On the long-running system, I run emacs --daemon, which I then connect to with emacsclient. When the system in between my box and the long-running box reboots, I just reconnect and re-attach to my session. But at some point that stopped working, as the emacs daemon dies at some point during the involuntary detachment in the dconf worker thread. I finally managed to catch this in a gdb session running in tmux running emacs with --fg-daemon. Thread 3 "dconf worker" received signal SIGTERM, Terminated.

GDB remains in the frame where the signal was received. To change this behavior use "set unwindonsignal on". Evaluation of the expression containing the function (backtrace_p) will be abandoned. When the function is done executing, GDB will silently stop. The information below was saved into a draft at the beginning of the emacs session.
