Ok, I'll try. My understanding was:
In cases - where the rc script is basically containing only
daemon=...
. /etc/rc.d/rc.subr
rc_cmd $i
a daemon is started by taking
1)
daemon=".... "
from the rc script
and 2)
daemon_flags defined in rc.conf.local (if any).
from rc.subr:
rc_start() {
${rcexec} "${daemon} ${daemon_flags} ${_bg}"
[...]
so there is nothing else included in such cases that would cause a
problem with pkill using '-fx'.
pexp incorporates these two parts:
pexp="${daemon}${daemon_flags:+ ${daemon_flags}}"
In such default cases using
pkill with '-fx' would work out of the box and pkill would kill only
if daemons and parameters match completely, correct so far?
Using '-fx' would be problematic if the rc script itself defines
rc_start() that is different from the one in rc.subr.
Writing this email made it more clear :)
So they override rc_start() but still expect that rc.subr's
restart/stop works with them out of the box.
