For one, my inits know nothing about the concept of "shutting down the system". Signed-off-by: Denys Vlasenko <vda.linux@googlemail.com> |

# Replaces traditional overdesigned shutdown mechanism. # # No communication with init is necessary: # just ask all processes to exit. # Then unmount everything. Then reboot or power off. # Install /sbin/ symlinks named halt, reboot, poweroff # (and also possibly shutdown) to e.g. # /app/shutdown-1.0/script/shutdown: # ln -s /app/shutdown-1.0/script/shutdown /sbin/halt ln -s /app/shutdown-1.0/script/shutdown /sbin/reboot ln -s /app/shutdown-1.0/script/shutdown /sbin/poweroff # # shutdown spawns do_shutdown in new session, redirected to /dev/null, # tells user that shutdown is in progress, and sleeps # (for cosmetic reasons: do not confuse user by letting him # type more commands in this terminal). # # do_shutdown tries to switch to a VT console. # Then, (only if -r) it spawns a hardshutdown child, to reboot # unconditionally in 30 seconds if something later goes seriously bad. # Then it runs stop_tasks, writing to /var/log/reboot/YYYYMMDDhhmmss.log, # then it runs stop_storage. # Then it commands kernel to halt/reboot/poweroff, if requested. # Then it sleeps forever. # # Build the hardshutdown binary: # cd script && ./hardshutdown.make.sh
