Hi Guix!
I was looking to pause a long build today and asked on IRC how to
accomplish pause/resume. It seems this is possible already with the
following:
kill --signal SIGSTOP|SIGCONT {pids-of-build-process-tree}
There is already a command to list the processes associated to guix
commands: guix processes. Perhaps pause/resume can be a subcommand or
set of flags to guix processes. The following is the first thing that
comes to mind:
guix processes --pause package-name ... --resume package-name ...
What do you think?
Thanks!
