It is desirable to have a mode where a soft shutdown is requested, but then do a hard shutdown if after some time period the container has not shut down. This the default behaviour of lxc-stop, but is not currently possible with lxc-autostart. This change makes this the default behaviour when shutdown is specified to lxc-autostart. This will be very useful for init scripts.
An indefinte wait for soft shutdown (though I'm not sure how that would be useful) is still possible by passing a timeout of 0. Change default timeout value to 60 seconds to match lxc-stop Signed-off-by: Dwight Engen <dwight.en...@oracle.com> --- doc/lxc-autostart.sgml.in | 7 +++++-- src/lxc/lxc_autostart.c | 3 +-- 2 files changed, 6 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/doc/lxc-autostart.sgml.in b/doc/lxc-autostart.sgml.in index 2f132ad..99ee7fa 100644 --- a/doc/lxc-autostart.sgml.in +++ b/doc/lxc-autostart.sgml.in @@ -103,8 +103,11 @@ Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA </term> <listitem> <para> - Only request a clean shutdown, do not kill the - container tasks if the clean shutdown fails. + Request a clean shutdown.
