[Bug 1511778] Re: Sar sends SIGTERM to init

[BrandonTomlinson]

Updated steps to reproduce:

sar -b 1 100 > /dev/null &
kill -SIGKILL $! ; kill -SIGINT $(pidof sadc);


** Description changed:

  This only affects Trusty and vivid releases, it was fixed upstream in
  https://github.com/sysstat/sysstat/commit/c3de69658006af0e0e3b7746e8646b8b4cdd2860
  .
  
  At this point, trusty's sar can still pass SIGTERM (and other sigs) up
  to init.
  
  We're able to reproduce with something like:
  
-  echo "$(sar -b 1 5 | awk '/Average:/ { print $2 }') > 100" | bc
+   sar -b 1 100 > /dev/null &
+   kill -SIGKILL $! ; kill -SIGINT $(pidof sadc);
