Description Sandeep Kumar 2005-02-17 19:20:13 UTC
When init receives SIGHUP, the state machine's requested_transition is changed to clean_ttys. Lets say SIGTERM is received while we are in clean_ttys, it will set requested_transition to death. But at the end of clean_ttys it will return multi_user directly which then resets requested_transition. So we loose the SIGTERM sent by shutdown

Fix: 

While returning, clean_ttys should check if requested_transition is
no longer clean_ttys and then return requested_transition
instead of multi_user
How-To-Repeat: Create a big /etc/ttys.
kill -1 1; shutdown -r now

Lot of times the machine will not reboot.

State Changed
From-To: open->analyzed

this is not just possible, it does happen frequently. I'm seeing this @ work several times a week. 
If a script fires a signal to reboot and a few moments later, another instruction tells init to just shutdown, init will forget about the reboot. 
I've created a patch for that problem, which solves that problem (stress tested my notebook with that):
