https://github.com/masneyb/early-service-example Thanks very much for this pointer! I will take a closer look at your code since I would indeed prefer to start my process (and systemd-bootchart) in the initrd. I had tried doing that using "rdinit=" and did observe that the SIGHUP problem does not occur in that case (btw, it is SIGHUP followed by SIGCONT). For systemd-bootchart, after it does some initial set-up, it only reads files under /proc (and it keeps a directory stream to /proc open). Unfortunately, the switch-root operation somehow causes /proc/schedstat to become inaccessible, so systemd-bootchart is broken with "rdinit=" as well. -James M |
