[Pacemaker] pacemakerd does not daemonize?

[Andrei Belov]

Hello pacemaker users,

I noticed that neither "-p" nor "-f" option does not make any sense for pacemakerd -
pid_file is never used, and "f" option marked as "Legacy".

Is the ability to run as a daemon disappeared completely?

Also I'd like to know if there are any reasons to worry about the following:

Apr 08 19:54:20 [6025] pacemakerd:     info: pcmk_child_exit:   Child process crmd exited (pid=6031, rc=0)

Apr 08 19:54:33 [6025] pacemakerd:   notice: pcmk_child_exit:   Child process stonith-ng terminated with signal 6 (pid=6027, core=128)
Apr 08 19:54:38 [6025] pacemakerd:   notice: pcmk_child_exit:   Child process cib terminated with signal 6 (pid=6026, core=128)

Why some helper daemons could be terminated using abort() ?

Here's the backtrace for cib:

I'm using pacemaker 1.1.8 under SunOS (Joyent cloud).
