Hello!
What's the 'correct behaviour' of an init system, if someone wants to shutdown the system?
I currently do:
- call reboot(RB_POWER_OFF/RB_AUTOBOOT/RB_HALT_SYSTEM) - _exit(0)
Is this exit() call wrong? If I do RB_HALT_SYSTEM and _exit(0) after, the kernel panics.
Should init simply sleep, return to normal processing or exit?
Sincerly,
Nico
