| Centurion_Dan | KatolaZ, can you tell me how open-rc is run? From the openrc package it appears that /sbin/init is still provided by sysvinit.... I want to be sure to differentiate between openrc and sysvinit as init | 02:22 |
|---|---|---|
| KatolaZ | Centurion_Dan: in ascii openrc still needs sysvinit | 06:39 |
| KatolaZ | in beowulf it can run its own init | 06:39 |
| Centurion_Dan | Ok. That's fine. I'll be targetting devuan-baptise to experimental and hopefully have it ready in time for beowulf. | 09:08 |
| Centurion_Dan | KatolaZ: I spent time this morning following that thread on DNG... so many bad assumptions, most of them repetition. | 09:20 |
| Centurion_Dan | From what I've discovered having actually done some hard reading of systemd documentation we should be able to generate init configuration for sysvinit, openrc, runit and most other sane unixy inits from the systemd .service units, along with cron jobs from the .timer units, and configs for [x]inetd and other lazy socket activated like services. | 09:20 |
| Centurion_Dan | Additionally we can leverage sd-notify where daemons have been built against systemd api's for service management (supervision and watchdog) without needing anything more then a simple socket listener daemon to receive the messages. | 09:29 |
| Centurion_Dan | I think we can even use it to provide a discrete supervision service that works for sysvinit ;-) | 09:33 |
| KatolaZ | Centurion_Dan: which thread? | 09:42 |
| KatolaZ | ;) | 09:42 |
| Centurion_Dan | the one about buster dropping sysvinit and it's devil spawn "Stop the madness" ;-) | 09:45 |
| Centurion_Dan | lots of drivel with a smattering of commonsense from yourself and one or 2 others :-) | 09:45 |
| Centurion_Dan | going afk for about an hour... | 09:46 |
| Centurion_Dan | back... seems the technical discussions in DNG are still ongoing :-P | 11:40 |
| Centurion_Dan | quite a lot of energy there... | 11:40 |
| golinux | Here's the pad for this week's meet: https://pad.dyne.org/code/#/1/edit/ZTpmCImcjyJm+ODvmQTS1A/HfA7Il4aQ3R-EwyQ8MD0O4Kc/ | 20:04 |
