The current behavior of runit's halt is that options -d -h -p -i
are ignored except that a warning is printed (the exit status is zero).
They are not really noop, since in the original sysvinit implementation
each of -d -h -p -i imply halting/poweroff the system, so that's what
runit's halt does after "ignoring" such options.
I've tested in the past that if I turn -d -h -p -i into noop
the switch sysvinit --> runit-init is broken, so I don't want to do
that.
What is left on runit's side is that I can silence the warning (but I
don't think is a good behavior for a program to silently ignore some
options - it can be documented in the man page though) or add a special
case in 'run_sysv_script' so that 'reboot' and 'halt' scripts are
skipped during runit shutdown sequence.

Runit is currently borrowing from sysvinit (initscripts package)
scripts to initialize and shutdown the system; it runs sequentially
scripts from /etc/rcS.d/ to boot the system and scripts from /etc/rc0.d/
or /etc/rc6.d/ for shutdown/reboot.

I think reassigning this to runit as Debian bug with severity minor is
appropriate.

Thanks. We keep bumping into issues similar to this with the different halt
implementations.

I don't immediately have a really good solution.

My gut reaction is that runit's halt should either support the sysvinit options
even if noop.

Lorenzo,

I have no real experience of runit yet. What is the relationship between it an
initscripts? When are the initscripts used? Is there something you can do within
src:runit to avoid this?

Thanks

Mark

Subject: initscripts: /etc/init.d/halt calls halt with unsupported options

Dear Maintainer,

Every time I `poweroff` my machine, I see error message flash by that
complain about `halt` being called with unsupported options.  I think
I have tracked this down to /etc/init.d/halt making blind assumptions
about the options supported by the `halt` command.

Said command may be provided by any of a number of packages.  A quick
`apt-file search sbin/halt` turns up

  $ apt-file search sbin/halt
  bfh-container: /sbin/halt
  finit-sysv: /sbin/halt
  molly-guard: /sbin/halt
  progress-linux-container: /sbin/halt
  runit-init: /sbin/halt
  systemd-sysv: /sbin/halt
  sysvinit-core: /sbin/halt

Mine happens to be

  $ ls -l /sbin/halt
  lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Feb 10 03:45 /sbin/halt -> /lib/runit/shutdown

where the symlink target is from the runit package.  According to the
manual page, my halt command only supports -f, -w and -n short options.

The /etc/init.d/halt script may invokes the halt command with -d and -f
options and may add any of -i, -p and -h.

BTW, I also have runit-init installed which provides the `poweroff` and
`halt` commands that get executed.  Seeing that runit-init depends on
initscripts one could argue that runit-init should support those options
in which case feel free to forward this to that package (in the Debian
BTS).  From past experience, its maintainer is open to init freedom ;-)

If not a runit-init issue, this may still be worthwhile to upstream to
the Debian BTS for initscripts.  Even the systemd-sysv `halt` does not
claim to support -i or -h options in its manual page :-o
