2017-05-09supervise-daemon: add a --respawn-limit optionWilliam Hubbs
Allow limiting the number of times supervise-daemon will attempt to respawn a daemon once it has died to prevent infinite respawning. Also, set a reasonable default limit (10 times in a 5 second period). This is for issue #126.
2017-04-14reword the bugs section of the openrc-init man pageWilliam Hubbs
2017-04-12init: add re-exec capabilityWilliam Hubbs
This will allow the re-execution of the init process after upgrading OpenRC.
2017-04-06add init processWilliam Hubbs
openrc-init.c and openrc-shutdown.c are based on code which was written by James Hammons <jlhamm@acm.org>, so I would like to publically thank him for his work.
2016-12-05man/start-stop-daemon.8: clarify documentation about --pidfile optionWilliam Hubbs
The documentation implied that if you stop a daemon we handle multiple pids in a pid file. This is not correct. We only handle the first pid. X-Gentoo-Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=601540
2016-12-02fix manual typoAndCycle
This fixes #105.

2016-09-21man/openrc-run.8: Add note about eval usageWilliam Hubbs
This fixes #77.
2016-09-16Add command_progress variableWilliam Hubbs
If this is set to yes, 1, true, or on, start-stop-daemon will display a progress meter while waiting for a daemon to stop.
2016-09-13man/openrc-run.8: update variable documentationWilliam Hubbs
- document command_args_background and command_user.r - clarify documentation for command_background This fixes #78.
2016-07-26start-stop-daemon: Add SSD_IONICELEVELKenneth Lakin
This is the disk IO counterpart to SSD_NICELEVEL. Modified by William Hubbs to add the variable to the start-stop-daemon man page. This fixes #69.

2016-04-27add daemon supervisorWilliam Hubbs
The supervise-daemon process is meant to be a lightweight supervisor which can monitor and restart a daemon if it crashes.

2015-12-21Convert OpenRC to a centralized copyright/license structureWilliam Hubbs
In the past, OpenRC was a hybrid of a centralized and file-scope license/copyright structure. I followed the instructions from the Software Freedom Law Center [1] to convert to a Centralized structure where possible, for easier future maintenance.

Provide an example of using the -containers keyword and clarify documentation on some of the dependency functions.

2015-12-02Add detection for docker containersWilliam Hubbs
2015-11-12Implement "want" dependencyIan Stakenvicius
The want dependency is similar to the use dependency. If a service script, for example called service1, adds "want service2" to its depend function, OpenRC will attempt to start service2, if it exists on the system, when service1 is started. However, service1 will start regardless of the status of service2. X-Gentoo-Bug: 406021 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=406021
2015-06-10Add rc-sstat scriptWilliam Hubbs
The rc-sstat script is written to display status of s6 services and run rc-status to display all services status. This currently only works on Linux.
2015-05-27man: Document the stopsig variableMike Gilbert
This variable can be used to set the signal to send if the service is using start-stop-daemon. This fixes #56
2015-05-14s6: Use s6-svc -Dd to stop servicesWilliam Hubbs
This allows us to get rid of the sleep call in the stop function. Also, we set a configurable timeout value for stopping daemons.
2015-05-13Fix the s6 handlingWilliam Hubbs
This changes the default s6 service directory to /var/svc.d, also it changes the code to work with the individual services instead of forcing a rescan when a service is started or stopped.
2015-05-11Add support for the s6 supervision suiteWilliam Hubbs
2015-05-11man: Clarify the documentation for command_argsWilliam Hubbs
The command_args variable only works if using start-stop-daemon to start the daemon.

2014-10-20runscript.sh: add chroot supportWilliam Hubbs
This adds support for a chroot variable which will be passed to the start-stop-daemon --chroot switch to runscript.sh when starting a daemon. This also needs to be saved so it can be used in locating the pid file when stopping the daemon. X-Gentoo-Bug: 524388 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=524388

The -a option,which only applies to the del command, is used to remove a service from all runlevels. X-Gentoo-Bug: 497740 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=497740

2013-12-29Rename runscript to openrc-runWilliam Hubbs
This was requested by Debian, because the minicom software, which is available on Debian and other distros, has a binary named runscript. We are keeping a backward compatibility symlink for now, but this allows Debian or any other distro to safely remove the symlink. X-Gentoo-Bug: 494220 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=494220
2013-12-12Rename the rc binary to openrcWilliam Hubbs
Debian requested this rename due to the "rc" binary conflicting with the "rc" binary from the plan 9 shell. We also add a deprecation warning to the binary when it is run as rc to encourage users to switch to openrc instead. X-Gentoo-Bug: 493958 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=493958
2013-10-21Revert "Make einfo routines private"William Hubbs
This reverts commit de88aff0a839844526ae262f8961ec4372fed238. I was advised that splashutils links to libeinfo, so we do have a consumer for this library.
2013-09-26Make einfo routines privateWilliam Hubbs
The libeinfo library has no consumers other than OpenRC, so there is no reason for it to be maintained as a library. The einfo routines are now an object that links with the rc binary.
2013-09-03libeinfo: add separate variable to suppress eerror messagesWilliam Hubbs
Add an EERROR_QUIET environment variable which works like EINFO_QUIET but for the eerror functions. This will allow library consumers to choose whether to suppress eerror messages separately from einfo and ewarn messages. X-Gentoo-Bug: 482396 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=482396
2013-08-28libeinfo: suppress output for eerror* functionsWilliam Hubbs
This makes the eerror* functions honor the EINFO_QUIET environment variable like the einfo* and ewarn* functions. X-Gentoo-Bug: 482396 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=482396
2013-08-27Revert "Libeinfo: do not suppress ewarn() messages"William Hubbs
This reverts commit 4ee62c7903c65557c493f51d6703264a816156cd. The previously referenced commit broke consistency because ewarnx() was respecting the EINFO_QUIET environment setting, but after this commit, ewarn() was not. Also, due to discussion on the below referenced bugs, I think we do want to suppress warnings when EINFO_QUIET=yes.

2013-08-24man/runscript.8: minor grammar fixesWilliam Hubbs
2013-08-15fix typo on runscript man pageWilliam Hubbs
The example code had an invalid checkpath option (--dir instead of --directory) and a mode that does not make sense for directories (664 instead of 775). X-Gentoo-Bug: 481034 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=481034
2013-08-13Clarify the documentation about the restart functionWilliam Hubbs
Restart has never been able to be overridden in OpenRc, but there is a way to make your service script behave differently when restart is being executed. X-Gentoo-Bug: 480866 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=480866
2013-05-02Add service appletWilliam Hubbs
The service applet is equivalent to rc-service. This was added so that we will be more compatible with Debian and Fedora. Reported-by: cardoe@gentoo.org X-Gentoo-Bug: 468168 X-Gentoo-Bug-URL: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=468168
2013-04-28rc: allow switching runlevels without stopping servicesWilliam Hubbs
OpenRC, by default, stops all services that are not listed in a runlevel when rc is used to switch runlevels. This adds a -n/--no-stop command line option to rc which tells it to skip stopping the services which are not in the runlevel.
