exec healthcheck does not close bash

[colaH16]

I am using exec to do a healthcheck. Using multiple servers in config file doesn't matter. However, if I have multiple backend static_lists for each server, some processes are left behind.

The Docker image provided is based on the scratch image. Therefore, there is no /bin/bash. I just changed the base image and docker build to use it.

here is my healtch check script

#!/bin/bash

# udp=$2
tcp=` expr $2 - 2`

if `timeout 0.1s /bin/bash -c "cat < /dev/null > /dev/tcp/$1/$tcp" ` ; then echo -n 0; else echo -n 1; fi
#return 0;
exit
