/* * A rewrite of the original Debian's start-stop-daemon Perl script * in C (faster - it is executed many times during system startup). * * Written by Marek Michalkiewicz , * public domain. Based conceptually on start-stop-daemon.pl, by Ian * Jackson . May be used and distributed * freely for any purpose. Changes by Christian Schwarz * , to make output conform to the Debian * Console Message Standard, also placed in public domain. Minor * changes by Klee Dienes , also placed in the Public * Domain. * * Changes by Ben Collins , added --chuid, --background * and --make-pidfile options, placed in public domain aswell. * * Port to OpenBSD by Sontri Tomo Huynh * and Andreas Schuldei * * Changes by Ian Jackson: added --retry (and associated rearrangements). * * Modified for Gentoo rc-scripts by Donny Davies : * I removed the BSD/Hurd/OtherOS stuff, added #include * and stuck in a #define VERSION "1.9.18". Now it compiles without * the whole automake/config.h dance. */ #ifdef HAVE_LXC #define _GNU_SOURCE #include #endif /* HAVE_LXC */ #include #define VERSION "1.9.18" #define MIN_POLL_INTERVAL 20000 /*us*/ #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #ifdef linux #include #endif static int testmode = 0; static int quietmode = 0; static int exitnodo = 1; static int start = 0; static int stop = 0; static int background = 0; static int mpidfile = 0; static int signal_nr = 15; static const char *signal_str = NULL; static int user_id = -1; static int runas_uid = -1; static int runas_gid = -1; static const char *userspec = NULL; static char *changeuser = NULL; static const char *changegroup = NULL; static char *changeroot = NULL; static const char *cmdname = NULL; static char *execname = NULL; static char *startas = NULL; static const char *pidfile = NULL; static char what_stop[1024]; static const char *schedule_str = NULL; static const char *progname = ""; static int nicelevel = 0; static struct stat exec_stat; struct pid_list { struct pid_list *next; pid_t pid; }; static struct pid_list *found = NULL; static struct pid_list *killed = NULL; struct schedule_item { enum { sched_timeout, sched_signal, sched_goto, sched_forever } type; int value; /* seconds, signal no., or index into array */ /* sched_forever is only seen within parse_schedule and callees */ }; static int schedule_length; static struct schedule_item *schedule = NULL; LIST_HEAD(namespace_head, namespace); struct namespace { LIST_ENTRY(namespace) list; const char *path; int nstype; }; static struct namespace_head namespace_head; static void *xmalloc(int size); static void push(struct pid_list **list, pid_t pid); static void do_help(void); static void parse_options(int argc, char *const *argv); static int pid_is_user(pid_t pid, uid_t uid); static int pid_is_cmd(pid_t pid, const char *name); static void check(pid_t pid); static void do_pidfile(const char *name); static void do_stop(int signal_nr, int quietmode, int *n_killed, int *n_notkilled, int retry_nr); static int pid_is_exec(pid_t pid, const struct stat *esb); #ifdef __GNUC__ static void fatal(const char *format, ...) __attribute__((noreturn, format(printf, 1, 2))); static void badusage(const char *msg) __attribute__((noreturn)); #else static void fatal(const char *format, ...); static void badusage(const char *msg); #endif /* This next part serves only to construct the TVCALC macro, which * is used for doing arithmetic on struct timeval's.
