+From: Simon Peter <dn.tlp@gmx.net>
+Subject: Bug#306261: pppd does not properly close /dev/ppp on persist
+
+When using the kernel PPPoE driver, pppd never
+closes /dev/ppp when the link has come down.
+
+It opens superfluous fds to the device each time it re-opens the
+connection, with the unclosed ones falsely reported always ready for
+data by select().
+
+This makes pppd eat up 100% CPU time after the first persist because of
+the always instantly returning select() on the unclosed fds.
+
+The problem also occurs with the upstream version, but does not occur
+when a pty/tty device is used for the ppp connection.
