Bug ID: 1096296
Summary: man page inaccuracy about --sig-proxy and --tty
Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
Version: 7.1
Component: docker
Assignee: lsm5(a)redhat.com

Depends On: 1087697
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1087697 +++
Description of problem:
Hi guys,
the man page states:
--sig-proxy=true: Proxify all received signal to the process (even
in non-tty mode)
But the real behavior is, that sig-proxy doesn't work when --tty=true. It
should be mentioned in there, taht --sig-proxy is incompatible with --tty.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
docker-io-0.9.1-1.fc21.x86_64
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. man docker
Actual results:
man page says it works even in non-tty
Expected results:
man page warns that --tty can't be used with --sig-proxy
How to verify:
1. docker run --tty=true -i --rm fedora bash -c 'for NUM in `seq 1 64`; do trap
"echo Received $NUM, ignoring..." $NUM; done; while :; do sleep 1; done'
2. ps -ax | grep docker
3. kill -SIGUSR1 $PID
4. (with --tty=true no signals are received, when you try the same with
--tty=false, signals are proxified and messages are displayed)

Copying William (he recently got per subcommand manpages merged upstream).
this seems to be the case even in the latest manpage (I'm guessing this was
inherited from the original manpage).
William, was there any discussion about this in your PR?

btw, the 0.10 rpm includes the latest manpages (should be in yum soon)

Thanks for a quick reply. I tried the docker-io-0.10.0-2.fc20.x86_64 which
says:
--sig-proxy=true|false:
When set to true, proxify all received signals to the process
(even in non-tty mode). The default is true.
I'd really like to change it to "only in non-tty" with possible warning
that
--tty=true is incompatible with --sig-proxy.

I go this text from upstream. I'll check.

Lukas,according to the folks upstream, this is a bug in docker run and attach.
It should be as the text suggests.
Can you file a bug upstream with docker? Here:
https://github.com/dotcloud/docker/issues
Please just take the information you posted above and post it there.
Thanks. Well spotted.
Best,
William
