Using runit 1.6.0, it doesn't look like "sv exit" is working as it
should.  I'm working to replace some scripts which use svwaitdown in
/etc/runit/3 with using sv, and was trying to use "sv exit [service]"
but when I do, the service goes down, runsv is killed, but then within a
few seconds it's starting again.  It's almost like it's not properly
writing the new state for runsvdir to know we want it down.

If I use "sv down [service]" the service goes down properly.  It's not
that big of a deal to use sv down in stage 3 I guess, but it's not
what's illustrated in the sample debian script (which uses
force-stop then exit).  I figure using exit alone would be
sufficient (force-stop shuts the service down but then it comes
right back up when I use exit).

Am I doing something wrong?

My stage 3 script looks like this:

[vdanen@build trunk]$ cat 3
#!/bin/execlineb

/bin/fdmove -c 2 1

/bin/export PATH "/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin"

/sbin/chpst -e /etc/sysconfig/env/runit/

/bin/import -D 180 STAGE_3_TIMEOUT
/bin/import -D 14 GETTY_TIMEOUT

/bin/elglob -0 GETTYS /service/mingetty-*
/bin/elglob -0 ALLSERVICES /service/*

/bin/foreground { /bin/echo "Waiting up to ${GETTY_TIMEOUT} seconds for getties to stop..." }
/bin/foreground { /sbin/sv -w $GETTY_TIMEOUT force-stop $GETTYS }
/bin/foreground { /sbin/sv exit $GETTYS }

/bin/foreground { /bin/echo "Waiting up to ${STAGE_3_TIMEOUT} seconds for services to stop..." }
/bin/foreground { /sbin/sv -w $STAGE_3_TIMEOUT force-stop $ALLSERVICES }
/bin/foreground { /sbin/sv exit $ALLSERVICES }

/bin/foreground { /bin/echo "Executing shutdown..." }

/sbin/rc 0


It's pretty much the same as the debian script with a few additions and
it's written in execline rather than bash.

Any ideas?  Right now I'm thinking just to use force-stop and get rid of
the exit call altogether and let /sbin/rc handle sending all the runsv
services the TERM signal when shutting the system down.
