No, not yet, but I'll look at it later. > lxc-shutdown sends two different signals: > reboot => SIGINT > shutdown => SIGPWR > > These are caught by upstart and will trigger a clean reboot or > shutdown > of the container. It's what happens on shutdown of the host in 12.04 > LTS. On a Debian container I had lying around here it had no effect whatsoever, because there's nothing in the /etc/inittab catching it. Is it document behaviour that upstart shuts down on SIGPWR? (upstart has no /etc/inittab where this may be configured, right?) Because if it is that easy to cause upstart deterministically to shut down, then that is definitely something we should use. Still, I think my initial rationale still holds that lxc-stop should shut down by default, because I certainly didn't expect lxc-stop to kill everything with SIGKILL when I tried it for the first time. So basically all I'm saying is that Ubuntu's lxc-shutdown logic should be implemented in lxc-stop and that it should be a bit more generic with the possibility that the user can configure different methods in the config file.
