runit
init - a UNIX process no 1
init [ 0 | 6 ]
runit-init
is the first process the kernel starts. If runit-init is started as process
no 1, it runs and replaces itself with runit(8).
If runit-init is started
while the system is up, it must be either called as init 0 or init 6:
- init
0
- tells the Unix process no 1 to shutdown and halt the system. To signal
runit(8) the system halt request, the /etc/runit/reboot file is removed
and /etc/runit/stopit is touched. Then a CONT signal is sent to runit(8).
- init 6
- tells the Unix process no 1 to shutdown and reboot the system. To
signal runit(8) the system reboot request, the /etc/runit/reboot and /etc/runit/stopit
files are touched. Then a CONT signal is sent to runit(8).
runit-init
returns 111 on error, 0 in all other cases.
runit(8), svwaitdown(8),
svwaitup(8)
