I come across a series of patches to implement reboot/halt of a container. Patches were discussed before, but I had no time to look at that stuff in more detail...
The problem. The current detection is based on the content of container's /var/run/utmp. This is goood provided the container actually touches that file, but this is not true for "single-application" containers, i.e. the ones without full init.d system. There are only two reliable ways to get this to work: it's either catching sys_reboot() (for which kernel support/changes is needed), or replacing poweroff or halt (or introducing a separate utility) which will notify the parent process about the event in some way (sending signal, connecting to a socket, writing something to a pipe and the like). I remember something of that sort were proposed too, but I can't find the details now. Are there some patches or git branch with that stuff?
