6 | from Bill Nottingham. | |
7 | * Adjust makefile to make sure the install directories are created | |
8 | before files are copied into them. | |
9 | * Fix minor bug in optimizing of argument parsing. Based on | |
10 | report from jakemus on freshmeat. | |

20 | * Fix typos and do minor updates in the manual pages. | |
21 | * Correct section of mountpoint(1). | |
22 | * Document -e and -t options for telinit in init(8). | |
23 | * Update address of FSF in the COPYRIGHT file. | |
24 | * Document in halt(8) that -n might not disable all syncing. | |
25 | Patch by Bill Nottingham and Fedora | |
26 | * Adjust output from "last -x". In reboot lines, print endpoint | |
27 | of uptime too. In shutdown lines print downtimes rather than | |
28 | the time between downs. Fix typo in string compare in last.c. | |
29 | Patch by Thomas Hood. | |
30 | * Improve handling of IPv6 addresses in last. Patch from Fedora. | |
31 | * Document last options in usage information, previously only | |
32 | mentioned in the manual page. | |
33 | * Add new option -F to last, to output full date string instead | |
34 | of the short form provided by default. Patch from Olaf Dabrunz | |
35 | and SuSe. | |
36 | * Adjust build rules to make sure the installed binaries | |
37 | are stripped. | |
38 | * Increase the compiler warning level when building. | |
39 | * Fix utmp/wtmp updating on 64-bit platforms. Patch by Bill | |
40 | Nottingham and Fedora. | |
41 | * Avoid unchecked return value from malloc() in utmpdump. | |
42 | Patch from Christian 'Dr. Disk' Hechelmann and Fedora. | |
43 | * Make sure to use execle and no execl when passing environment to | |
44 | the new process. Patch from RedHat. | |
45 | * Correct init to make sure the waiting status is preserved across | |
46 | re-exec. Patch from RedHat. | |
47 | * Correct init to avoid race condition when starting programs during | |
48 | boot. Patch from SuSe. | |
49 | * Allow 'telinit u' in runlevels 0 and 6. Patch from Thomas Hood. | |
50 | * Change install rules to make pidof an absolute symlink. Patch from | |
51 | Thomas Hood. | |
52 | * Improve error message from init if fork() fail. Patch found in Suse. | |
53 | * Add support for SE Linux capability handling. Patch from Manoj | |
54 | Srivastava, adjusted to avoid aborting if SE policy was loaded in | |
55 | the initrd with patch from Bill Nottingham and Fedora. | |
56 | * Add -c option to pidof for only matching processes with the same | |
57 | process root. Ignore -c when not running as root. Patch from | |
58 | Thomas Woerner and Fedora. | |
59 | * Adjust init to terminate argv0 with one 0 rather than two so that | |
60 | process name can be one character longer. Patch by Kir Kolyshkin. | |
61 | * Make sure bootlogd exit with non-error exit code when forking of | |
62 | the child successfully. | |
63 | * Add bootlogd option -s to make it possible to control the use of | |
64 | fdatasync(). Patch from Thomas Hood. | |
65 | * Add bootlogd option -c to tell it to create the log file if it does | |
66 | not exist. Patch from Thomas Hood. | |
67 | * Let bootlogd also look at ttyB* devices to work on HPPA. Patch | |
68 | from Thomas Hood. | |
69 | * Change init to use setenv() instead of putenv, make sure the PATH | |
70 | value is usable on re-exec. Patch from Thomas Hood. | |
71 | * Add usleep in killall5 after killing processes, to force the kernel | |
72 | to reschedule. Patch from SuSe. | |
73 | * Modify pidof to not print empty line if no pid was found. | |
74 | * Modify init and sulogin to fix emergency mode's tty, making sure ^C | |
75 | and ^Z work when booting with 'emergency' kernel option. Patch from | |
76 | Samuel Thibault. | |
77 | * Modify init to allow some time for failed opens to resolve themselves. | |
78 | Patch from Bill Nottingham and Fedora. | |
79 | * Modify init to shut down IDE, SCSI and SATA disks properly. Patches | |
80 | from Sebastian Reichelt, Werner Fink and SuSe. | |
81 | * Modify wall to use UT_LINESIZE from <utmp.h> instead of hardcoded | |
82 | string lengths. Patch from SuSe. | |
83 | * Change wall to make halt include hostname in output. | |
84 | * Change killall to avoid killing init by mistake. Patch from SuSe. | |
85 | * Change killall5 to use the exit value to report if it found any | |
86 | processes to kill. Patch from Debian. | |
87 | * Add option -o opmitpid to killall5, to make it possible to skip | |
88 | some pids during shutdown. Based on patch from Colin Watson and | |
89 | Ubuntu. | |
90 | * Add references between killall5 and pidof manual pages. Patch from Debian. | |
91 | * Modify killall to work better with user space file system, by | |
92 | changing cwd to /proc when stopping and killing processes, and | |
93 | avoiding stat() when the value isn't used. Also, lock process | |
94 | pages in memory to avoid paging when user processes are stopped. | |
95 | Patch from Debian and Goswin von Brederlow with changes by Kel | |
96 | Modderman. | |
97 | * Change shutdown to only accept flags -H and -P with the -h flag, | |
98 | and document this requirement in the manual page. | |
99 | * Change reboot/halt to work properly when used as a login shell. | |
100 | Patch by Dale R. Worley and Fedora. | |
101 | * Let sulogin fall back to the staticly linked /bin/sash if both roots | |
102 | shell and /bin/sh fail to execute. | |

106 | sysvinit (2.86) cistron; urgency=low | |
107 | ||
108 | * Fixed up bootlogd to read /proc/cmdline. Also keep an internal | |
109 | linebuffer to process \r, \t and ^H. It is becoming useable. | |
110 | * Applied trivial OWL patches | |
111 | * Block signals in syslog(), since syslog() is not re-entrant | |
112 | (James Olin Oden <joden@malachi.lee.k12.nc.us>, redhat bug #97534) | |
113 | * Minor adjustements so that sysvinit compiles on the Hurd | |
114 | * killall5 now skips kernel threads | |
115 | * Inittab entries with both 'S' and other runlevels were broken. | |
116 | Fix by Bryan Kadzban <bryan@kadzban.is-a-geek.net> | |
117 | * Changed initreq.h to be more flexible and forwards-compatible. | |
118 | * You can now through /dev/initctl set environment variables in | |
119 | init that will be inherited by its children. For now, only | |
120 | variables prefixed with INIT_ can be set and the maximum is | |
121 | 16 variables. There's also a length limit due to the size | |
122 | of struct init_request, so it should be safe from abuse. | |
123 | * Option -P and -H to shutdown set INIT_HALT=POWERDOWN and | |
124 | INIT_HALT=HALT as environment variables as described above | |
125 | * Add "mountpoint" utility. | |
126 | * Slightly better algorithm in killall5.c:pidof() | |
127 | * Added some patches from fedora-core (halt-usage, last -t, | |
128 | sulogin-message, user-console) | |

134 | * Add IPv6 support in last(1) | |
135 | * Sulogin: even if the root password is empty, ask for a password- | |
136 | otherwise there is no way to set a timeout. | |
137 | * Removed support for ioctl.save. | |
138 | * Turned of support for /etc/initrunlvl and /var/run/initrunlvl | |
139 | * Fixed warts in dowall.c ("Dmitry V. Levin" <ldv@altlinux.org>) | |
140 | * Fix init.c::spawn(). The "f" variable was used both as file descriptor | |
141 | and waitpid(2) return code. In certain circumstances, this leads to | |
142 | TIOCSCTTY with wrong file descriptor (Vladimir N. Oleynik). | |
143 | * Fix fd leak in sulogin (Dmitry V. Levin). | |
144 | * More error checking in all wait() calling code (Dmitry V. Levin). | |
145 | * Fix argv[] initialization in spawn() (Dmitry V. Levin). | |
146 | * Change strncpy to strncat in most places (Dmitry V. Levin). | |

152 | * Don't use /etc/initlvl interface for telinit; only use /dev/initctl, | |
153 | and give a clear error when that fails. | |
154 | * Add -i/--init command line flag to init - this tells init | |
155 | 'behave as system init even if you're not PID#1'. Useful for | |
156 | testing in chroot/jail type environments. | |

165 | * Call closelog() after openlog()/syslog() since recent libc's | |

269 | For backwards compatibility when you try to boot a 2.0.x kernel | |
270 | with a linux > 2.1.70 /dev/console device. | |
271 | * Change src/Makefile for non-debian systems (mainly, RedHat) | |
272 | * Try to create /dev/initctl if not present; check every time to see | |
273 | if the dev/ino of /dev/initctl has changed and re-open it. This should | |
274 | help devfs a bit. | |

320 | * Added re-exec patch from Al Viro (21 Feb 1998): | |
321 | 'U' flag added to telinit. It forces init to re-exec itself | |
322 | (passing its state through exec, certainly). | |

565 | ||
566 | 2.50 14-Feb-1994 | |
567 | - Ignores unknown command line arguments. | |
568 | - Modelled more after the "real" sysVinit | |
569 | - Lots of changes all over the place. | |
570 | (like showing runlevel in "ps" listing, logging | |
571 | runlevel into utmp file etc) | |
572 | - now using "reliable" signals instead of V7 style. | |
573 | - Updated all scripts. Examples are in two directories: | |
574 | etc (normal) and etc-sysv (sysv style scripts). | |
575 | - runlevel 0 = halt, 1 = single user, 6 = reboot. | |
576 | - added support for serial console. | |

586 | hooked up an UPS to the Linux machine. The | |

588 | now "ctrlaltdel" instead of "power{wait,fail}". | |
589 | ||
590 | 2.4a 22-Apr-93 | |
591 | - Fixed last to reckognize BSD style wtmp logging. | |
592 | - Changed init to write wtmp records that are | |
593 | SysV compliant but are also reckognized by the | |
594 | BSD last. Added a '+' option to the 'process' | |
595 | field of inittab, for getties that want to do | |
596 | their own utmp/wtmp housekeeping (kludge!). | |
597 | - Now accepts a runlevel on the command line, | |
598 | and reckognizes the 'auto' argument. (Sets the | |
599 | environment variable AUTOBOOT to YES) | |
600 | ||
601 | 2.2.3 24-Mar-93 | |
602 | - Ripped out the 'leave' action. To difficult, and | |
603 | unneeded. | |
604 | - Going single user now kills _all_ processes. | |
605 | - Added '-t secs' option to all commands. | |
606 | - This version is stable enough to post. | |
607 | ||
608 | 2.2 02-Mar-93 | |
609 | - Made wait()'s asynchronous | |
610 | - Changed whole thing to one big state machine | |
611 | - Now using 'pseudo levels' # & * for SYSINIT & BOOT | |
612 | - Added a new type of 'action', called leave. This | |
613 | process will be executed when the system goes from a | |
614 | runlevel specified in it's runlevel field to a | |
615 | level that's not. Nice to bring down NFS and the like. | |
616 | ||
617 | 2.1 28-Jan-93 | |
618 | - Fixed a bug with 'boot' and 'once'. | |
619 | - Check 'initdefault' for validity. | |
620 | - Reckognizes "single" as command line argument. | |
621 | - Retries execvp with 'sh -c exec ..' if command | |
622 | is a shell script. (shouldn't execvp do this?) | |
623 | - Added patches to use syslog if defined. | |
624 | ||
625 | 2.0 08-Dec-92 | |
626 | - Rewrote the code totally, so started with a new | |
627 | version number. | |
628 | - Dropped Minix support, this code now is Linux - specific. | |
629 | - With TEST switch on, this init & telinit can | |
630 | run standalone for test purposes. | |
631 | ||
632 | 1.3, 05-Jul-92 | |
633 | - Got a 386, so installed Linux. Added 'soft' reboot | |
634 | to be default under linux. Fixed some typos. | |
635 | ||
636 | 1.2, 16-Jun-92 | |
637 | - Bugreport from Michael Haardt ; removed deadlock | |
638 | and added 'waitpid' instead of 'wait' for SYSV. | |
639 | ||
640 | 1.1, 30-Apr-92 | |
641 | - Read manual wrong: there is no 'action' field called | |
642 | process, but all entries are of type process. Every | |
643 | 'process' get exec'ed by /bin/sh -c 'exec command'. | |
644 | - Rapidly respawning processes are caught in the act. | |
645 | - _SYSV support is really Linux support, | |
646 | done by poe@daimi.aau.dk on 25-Mar-92. | |
647 | ||
648 | 1.0, 01-Feb-92 | |
649 | - Initial version, very primitive for the Minix | |
650 | operating system. Required some mods. to the | |
651 | kernel. | |
652 |
