Subject: runit and lsb init script actions
Date: Sun, 10 Apr 2005 15:15:57 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050410151610.26722.qmail@c94466ef4374af.315fe32.mid.smarden.org> (raw)

Hi, one thing that has been requested for runit multiple times is lsb
compliance concerning 'init script' actions, see

 http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_2.1.0/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic.html#INISCRPTACT

It seems to be quite possible to implement an lsb compliant interface
through a separate program that runs runsvctrl up, down, term, hup, ...,
depending on the command line arguments.  For service daemons that don't
do the right thing on up, down, term, hup, ..., it's possible to
override the actions through the customized control scripts in
<service>/control/.  This separate program may be symlinked to
/etc/init.d/<service>, or used as a wrapper, and maybe fall back to an
original /etc/init.d/<service> script in case the service doesn't run
under runit's supervision.

What do you think?

Thanks, Gerrit.
