[sshfs] SIGTERM for sshfs on broken connection

[Andrey B. <gen...@gm...>]

Hello


I'm using sshfs for mounting my PDA on desktop system. Sometimes I forgot to 
umount it and leave out of range of my home Wi-Fi, so I have dangling sshfs 
connection on desktop. While in such state, sshfs doesn't respond on SIGTERM 
signals (e.g. killall sshfs) and leave bunch of processes endlessly waiting 
for data from sshfs, which would never come.

Currently I use workaround, but it's cumbersome:
1. killall -9 sshfs
2. lsof | grep <mountpoint>
3. remove programs' open file descriptors from sshfs
4. fusermount -u <mountpoint>

It's would be nice if everything I need to do is do killall sshfs.



Thanks
   Andrey
