644ee05aab Update manual pages with markup and spacing fixes.
Added ability to use "@" symbol in command named in the inittab file. This
treats commands as literal and does not launch a shell to interpret them.

Updated inittab manual page to include overview of symbols which trigger
a shell interpretor and how to disable them using the @ symbol.

a6e80e1133 Added new Makefile to the "man" directory. This will handle the logic
for changes, substitutions, and clean-up of the man pages.
For now install instructions are still in the "src" directory
to avoid breaking install scripts.

0b695c7e0b Use readlink() instead of stat() to check processes. This shold avoid
hanging if NFS mounts are not responding.

Default to showing processes in the uninterruptable state (D).
The -z flag no longer affects whether processes in D state are shown.

The -z flag does still toggle whether zombie (Z) processes are shown.

584df5efaf Added patch from William Shipley which allows shutdown time to be specified
in the format +hh:mm. This is in addition to the existing formats such as
hh:mm, +m, and "now".

Cleared up compiler warning in dowall which can happen if the
output message is longer than the size limit on the snprintf()
buffer. This is not a bug, a the trucation works, but using a larger
buffer avoids the warning on systems with long user/host names.

fa124114ae Reformatted init code to make if/while logic more clear.
Cleaned up some output from readbootlog.

Added -e flg to bootlogd. When -e is used, data saved
to the boot log file does not have escape characters
removed. This means colour and cursor movement codes
stay in the log file. The may then look nicer when
read with "less -R', but may appear cluttered or
out of alignment when viewed with other, plain-text tools.

39df2f0fa3 Added -z command line paramter to pidof which tells pidof to
try to find processes in uninterruptable (D) or zombie (Z) states.
This can cause pidof to hang, but produces a more complete process
list.

df1aec8981 Accepted patch from Luc Gommans which explains why zombie and
deep sleep processes (Z and D) may be hidden from pidof

f1da344565 Dropped "-f" format flag for pidof command as it
could be used to print information from memory or crash
pidof. Replaced flag with "-d" which allows for a custom
separator to be used between listed PIDs.
Patch supplied by KatolaZ.

4e2ad6a698 Fixed segfault in pidof when the -f (format) flag is used with
crafted format strings.
Avoid printing stack memory when special format string is passed
to -f.
Listed control characters for -f flag in manual page.

848ee05104 Updated init manual page to include GRUB in boot loader comment
as LILO is rarely used outside of the Slackware family these days.

Switched stty flags to use ECHOE instead of ECHOPRT. This should
give smoother, more natural backspac-erase behaviour on emergency
consoles. (Created in init -b mode.)

c45219c64f Added -q and -Q flags to shutdown command to make the "system is going down"
message appear less often. The -q flag causes messages to only appear at the
10 minute, 5 minute and x-hour intervals.
The -Q flag maintains complete silence up until the final "now" warning.

44fce86dde Added -l flag to "last" command. When used it allows "last" to
display usernames longer than 8 characters long.

1b659c8ebe Applied patch from Daniel Povey which should allow killall5/pidof to
avoid locking up if it encounters stopped or zombie processes
due to broken NFS mount points.
This should allow Debian bug #719273 to be closed.

b4f8539153 Addressed man page documentation to warn the halt -i flag may
not properly shut down a network interface if it has no
valid IP address.

d27e34754a Unified shutdown and init to use 3 second wait between SIGTERM and
SIGKILL. Defined this value in init.h (WAIT_BETWEEN_SIGNALS) for
easy modification.
Updated documentation to address Debian bug #375274.

f1ca96e1c1 Added patch from Walter Harms which allows pidof to run without
displaying output. In this mode pidof simply returns true or false
without displaying PID values.

Updated manual page with new -q (quiet) mode.

Added -h flag for pidof, which was recognized before, but not used.
The -h flag now displays brief usage information for pidof.

6e8323e9fb The init process now writes the current runlevel to /var/run/runlevel.
This information can be read by the "runlevel" command as well as "halt"
and "reboot". Having the information logged in /var/run/runlevel as
well as the utmp file means systems without utmp (like those running
the musl C library) can still check the current runlevel. This is
useful when running halt/reboot as these programs want to check the
runlevel.

Updated the changelog, and manual pages for halt and runlevel.

Jesse Smith
272f112c98 Added new signal handler for SIGUSR2. When init receives SIGUSR2
it closes (and leaves closed) the named pipe /run/initctl. This
can be used to make sure init does not have any files open. However,
it also means we cannot switch run levels or bring down the system.
The pipe can be re-opened by sending init the SIGUSR1 signal.

Updated the man pages for initctl and init to include this information.

aee28b3292 Updated init page to reference the initctl manual page instead of
telling people to read the source code to learn how to use
the /run/initctl named pipe. Updated Makefile to install
the initctl.5 manual page.
2018-04-14 19:19:18 -03:00

01ca5252e8 Added new manual page for the initctl named pipe.
