Public bug reported:
[Availability]
* universe since cosmic
* possibly to be uploaded into bionic too
[Rationale]
* systemd shutdown procedure allows to execute off-rootfs hooks
* this small shell script provides trivial infrastructure to prepare the
shutdown hooks
* current intentions for this to be used for:
- open-iscsi logout on shutdown
- mdadm wait idle, and stop
- casper "remove installation media and reboot" sequence
[Security]
* This is a shell script, executed on shutdown via systemd unit.
* It also executes hooks that copy binaries (e.g. mdadm/mdmon) and do actions
(e.g. waitclean & stop)
* the shell script is trivial in size and complexity
* it calls copy_exec run-parts and ldconfig
[Quality assurance]
* small shell script
* dash -n *.sh executed during build
* no autopkgtest yet, but one will be added once the open-iscsi & mdadm hooks
are in the archive
[Dependencies]
* all in main
[Standards compliance]
* brand new package, with documentation, and small scope
[Maintenance]
* to be maintained by xnox / canonical foundation team
[Background information]
* this is the minimal viable shutdown initrd implementation, smaller in
size than dracut or initramfs-tools
