Changelog for s6. In 2.5.1.0 ---------- - Bugfix release. - s6-ftrig-listen1 now prints to stdout the last event (the last byte) it received and made it match the regexp it was given. - s6-supervise now recognizes the "timeout-kill" file in a service directory. If this file exists and contains a nonzero integer t, the behaviour of a "s6-svc -d" command is changed from "send a SIGTERM and a SIGCONT" to "send a SIGTERM and a SIGCONT, then if the service is still not dead after t milliseconds, send a SIGKILL". In 2.5.0.0 ---------- - Added this NEWS file. :) - Major types overhaul to make them more POSIXly correct: compatibility with skalibs-2.5.0.0. - Services can now report permanent failure by having a ./finish script exit 125. - s6-svwait, s6-svlisten and s6-svlisten1 now exit the number of services that reported permanent failure. They exit 99 on timeout. - When a service has a ./nosetsid file that contains "setpgrp", it is run in a new process group, but not in a new session. If the ./nosetsid file contains anything else, the service is run in the same session and process group as the supervisor, and if there is no such file, it's run in a new session (same behaviour as before). - s6-log now writes a warning to stderr when it closes the stdout stream. - s6-log's individual file size limit bumped to 256 MB. - Various bugfixes.
