Subject: [9fans] bringing down vacfs in p9p
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 102b3484-ead1-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

I can't figure out how to gracefully stop vacfs (or any other
file server for that matter) in p9p.

In plan 9 I can do an rm /srv/vacfs.test which immediately
removes the file causing vacfs to exit.

It'd be nice if rm `{namespace}^/vacfs.test would do the
same in p9p but it doesn't since unix won't remove the socket file
until vacfs closes it. I've resorted to 9 kill vacfs | rc
which doesn't seem right.

Is there something I'm missing? Is kill not that bad?
