From dfa16e4a89158f3d3198db71e2eba3bda9330078 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Laurent Bercot Date: Sat, 10 Sep 2016 13:29:56 +0000 Subject: Make s6-linux-init a real init package. This means: - removing leaky options to s6-linux-init-maker. Default initial_path is now always /usr/bin:/bin; the uid and gid of the catch-all logger (used at boot time) can now be given numerically instead of relying on the (run-time) user db mapping. - moving s6-halt, s6-poweroff and s6-reboot over here, from s6-linux-utils - clarifying on the documentation a bit. --- doc/s6-halt.html | 55 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 55 insertions(+) create mode 100644 doc/s6-halt.html (limited to 'doc/s6-halt.html') diff --git a/doc/s6-halt.html b/doc/s6-halt.html new file mode 100644 index 0000000..b6a326c --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/s6-halt.html @@ -0,0 +1,55 @@ + + + + + + s6-linux-init: the s6-halt program + + + + + + +

The `s6-halt` program

+ +

+s6-halt sends a signal to process 1 in order to halt the machine; +or, with the -f option, it performs an immediate hard shutdown. +

+ +

Interface

+ +

+     s6-halt [ -h | -p | -r ] [ -f ]
+

+ +

s6-halt sends a signal to process 1.
It then exits 0.

+ +

Options

+ +

-h : halt. The command will order a halt (i.e. the system will +be shut down, but the power will remain up), which means +sending a SIGUSR2 to process 1. This is the default.
-p : poweroff. The command will order a power off, which means +sending a SIGUSR1 to process 1.
-r : reboot. The command will order a reboot, which means +sending a SIGINT to process 1.
-f : force. The command will not send any signal to process 1; +it will just sync the filesystems then tell the kernel to halt, poweroff or reboot. +s6-reboot -f or s6-poweroff -f should be the last program +executed in the lifetime of a machine, at the end of the shutdown script called +by process 1 when it receives a signal telling it to shut down.
