"reboot" does not reboot #38

Closed jakajancar closed 9 years ago

jakajancar commented 9 years ago

Doing a "sudo reboot" causes the app to exit, not reboot:

The system is going down NOW!
Sent SIGTERM to all processes
Sent SIGKILL to all processes
Requesting system reboot
reboot: Restarting system
reboot: machine restart

This isn't handled in bhyve either.

This is expected. The current model in bhyve is to restart the process, rather than resetting the device state. xhyve will give you a different exit code depending on the shutdown event (VM_SUSPEND_RESET, VM_SUSPEND_POWEROFF, VM_SUSPEND_TRIPLEFAULT, ...).

This is typically handled by the run scripts. For example: http://people.freebsd.org/~neel/bhyve/vmrun.sh

Ah, that works. Perhaps even better to leave the caller in control. Thanks.
