How to start daemon from buildbot ShellCommand

I have an application, it runs as a daemon using the fork function.

int pid = fork();
if (pid != 0) {
    return 0;
}

If run it from the console, everything works correctly. but if buildbot does this using the ShellCommand, then it waits for the daemon to terminate.

How it is done... qmake generates a MakeFile with the target release, the target release in turn launches my daemon.

release.commands = daemon
QMAKE_EXTRA_TARGETS += release

If you run qmake with the console then make release, then everything works correctly.

steps.ShellCommand(
    command= ['make', 'release'],
    doStepIf = lambda step : isRelease(step) and  isLinux(step),
    name = 'release Linux',
    haltOnFailure = True,
    description = 'release project',
)

Tell me how to run the daemon from BuildBot?
