The daemon that manages the shutdown procedure for a 66 boot initialization. It is not meant to be called directly and automatically generated by a 66 scandir create|start command invocation.
This program is a modified copy of s6-linux-init-shudownd.
66-shutdownd [ -h ] [ -l live ] [ -s skel ] [ -g gracetime ] [ -B ] [ -c ]66-shutdownd opens the /run/66/scandir/0/shutdownd/fifo pipe and listens to it. Programs such as 66-shutdown send their commands to this pipe when they are told to trigger the shutdown procedure.
When it receives a command to shut down 66-shutdownd parses the skel file rc.init—defined by default at /etc/66 directory— and reads the value of RCSHUTDOWN to be able to spawn the rc.shutdown script.
When said script exits 66-shutdownd kills all processes first with a SIGTERM then, after the grace time specified by the shutdown command, with a SIGKILL.
It then runs an automatically generated script called stage4 which unmounts all file systems and halts, powers off or reboots the machine.
-h: prints this help.
-l live: changes the supervision directory of service to live. By default this will be /run/66. The default can also be changed at compile time by passing the --livedir=live option to ./configure. An existing absolute path is expected and should be within a writable and executable filesystem - likely a RAM filesystem—see 66 scandir.
-s skel: an absolute path; directory of the skeleton file rc.init. Default is /etc/66.
-g gracetime: specify a grace time between the SIGTERM and the SIGKILL in milliseconds if the shutdown command does not provide one. Defaults to 3000.
-B: inform the shutdown daemon that it is running in a container. This changes the nature of stage 4, since exiting a container is slightly different from rebooting a real machine (in particular, pid 1 has to exit, and great care must be given not to leave any zombie hanging around).
-c: inform the shutdown daemon that no catch-all logger is running. This also changes the shutdown procedure slightly, since some operations are specific to the existence of a catch-all logger.
The 66-shutdownd binary is not meant to be called directly. It is automatically generated by a 66 scandir program invocation.
