During the CVE checking phase, we can still see a huge amount of Python processes (actually 128) running on the host, even though the CVE step is entirely ran in the main thread. These are actually the worker processes spawned to check for the packages URL statuses and the latest versions from release-monitoring. This is because of an issue in Python's multiprocessing implementation: https://bugs.python.org/issue34172 The problem was already there before the CVE matching step was introduced, but because pkg-stat was terminating right after the release-monitoring step, it went unnoticed. Also, do not hold a reference to the multiprocessing pool from the Package class, as this is not needed.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
