09f8dcc90eUpdated wall.c to make it easier to adjust buffer sizes without causing overflow or off-by-one errors.
Jesse Smith
2019-01-27 16:04:13 -0400
483dc777d2Changed the way the "when" variable is used internally in shutdown.c. It starts as a NULL pointer, then might get set as a pointer to optarg, then it might get set to point to an argv parameter, then it might have a string value copied into it, over-writing the original data. We should not risk over-writing internal variables which might get used for something else (it's rude and security risk). Set up "when" as its own buffer that has data from optargs and/or argv copied into it.

cb0a849e87Added patch to re-enable the omit flag (-o) in pidof.
Jesse Smith
2018-11-24 12:37:25 -0400
f0e93128bcWhen the halt command is called with the -p flag (or as poweroff) the command now passes the "-h -P" flags to shutdown. This in turn sets the INIT_HALT environment variable to POWEROFF. Assuming this value is checked by initscripts during the shutting down procedure, it should cause the system to be powered off. If halt is called without -p then the value of INIT_HALT is not set and the default action (often set in /etc/defaut/halt) is taken.
Jesse Smith
2018-11-23 22:11:42 -0400
c03e2fac2bAdded fix to pidof which re-enabled the omit (-o) flag. this was broken when formatting was added in the 2.92 release. Closes Debian bug #914494.

2018-11-01 22:06:14 -0300
c45219c64fAdded -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.
Jesse Smith
2018-11-01 17:21:47 -0300

Jesse Smith
2018-10-22 22:03:09 -0300
d27e34754aUnified 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.
Jesse Smith
2018-10-22 21:44:39 -0300
7b1d470949Added check for kernel parameter init.autocon=1. If this exists, then init will try to open its own console. If not, then any console= parameters will be ignored. This avoids conflicts with native kernel created consoles.
Jesse Smith
2018-09-29 17:12:12 -0300

Jesse Smith
2018-09-07 21:42:47 -0300
6e8323e9fbThe 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.
Jesse Smith
2018-07-07 20:19:03 -0300
6b26692584Added new runlevel log code which saves (and reads) the current runlevel from /var/run/runlevel. Added test code to runlevel.c to confirm it works.

Jesse Smith
2018-05-04 14:51:40 -0300
cfb39b573fUpdated init.c to remove some old notes and answer questions that were flagged in comments or FIXME labels.
Jesse Smith
2018-04-23 00:09:49 -0300
272f112c98Added 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.
Jesse Smith
2018-04-17 19:44:50 -0300
f09da9cb55Add check to make sure /run/initctl is open before we try to close it when receiving SIGUSR1. Avoids crashing upon receiving signal.
Jesse Smith
2018-04-15 14:09:33 -0300
aee28b3292Updated 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.
Jesse Smith

a4508479f5Updated shutdown to check if time has lapsed when we did not notice. For example if the computer was in sleep mode pending a shutdown. The shutdown command now notices time has past and adjusts its countdown clock to compensate. Accurate to the nearest minute. Closes Savannah bug #36279
Jesse Smith
2018-04-04 23:12:25 -0300
d9b6475d85Removed unneeded "count" variable in utmpdump.c.

8c8172349eUpdated mountpoint to search for circular mount points when using the -p parameter. This works around mountpoint not recognizing circular mounts where /a/b/c/d and /a/b are the same location (ie the same device and same inode). Closes Savannah bug #37114.

Jesse Smith
2018-02-23 17:34:30 -0400

986bee63c0Allow multiple console output When booting a kernel with multiple serial console support, or multuiple console arguments ala "console=tty1 console=ttyS0,9600" the kernel will output messages to all consoles, init however will not. It will only send output to, and accept input from, the last of the consoles. This patch fixes it.

2018-02-20 19:30:46 -0400
80dbcf3de3Moved the named communication pipe from /dev/initctl to /run/initctl. This patch was supplied by Robert Millan from Debian. FreeBSD apparently does not like named piped in /dev, so we move it to /run for better cross-platform compatibility.
