[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#706676: sysvinit: /sbin/init doesn't support LXC gracefull shutdown via lxc-shutdown

[Laurent Vallar]

Package: sysvinit
Version: 2.88dsf-41
Severity: important

It seems that init doesn't handle properly SIGPWR inside LXC container,
even after applying a workarround found at :
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=695568#15

'lxc-shutdown -n <container>' halts gracefully a container but
container's /sbin/init process is left running after, so container
isn't stopped.

You have to do 'lxc-stop -n <container>' or a
'lxc-attach -n <container> -- /bin/kill -9 <init_pid>' to kill remaining
/sbin/init and stop container.

Regards.
