Hi All,
I have a kernel module that needs to restart the system in a way that basically
does a "shutdown -r now", because I need the shutdown scripts at level 6 to
perform some necessary tasks. Right now, this code calls panic() which calls
emergency_restart() which (at least on my machine) does not allow the shutdown
scripts to run. I've tried calling kernel_restart(), and also tried
C_A_D = 1;
ctrl_alt_del();
but in both cases, the system restarted directly in the boot loader. Any ideas
on how to gracefully restart from within the kernel?
thanks in advance,
Frank
