Hi,
please consider adding an option to killall5 that allows certain
processes to survive a killall5 invocation.
My usecase is a diskless client with the root filesystem on a network
block device (NBD). A userland process (nbd-client) is required for the
device to work; this process needs to stay around until just before
shutdown.
The same would apply to filesystems mounted via eNBD (enhanced NBD),
iSCSI and probably other methods.
I have a possible solution attached; please let me know what you think
of that approach or if you would know of a better method.
Cheers, Til

Changes:
sysvinit (2.86.ds1-39) experimental; urgency=low
.
[ Petter Reinholdtsen ]
* Upload to experimental to get more feedback from testers.
* Change checkfs.sh dependency info, make modutils an optional
dependency as it is no longer installed by default.
* Move /etc/init.d/bootclean to /lib/init/bootclean, as it is not an
init.d script but a library.
* Acknowledge NMU. (Closes: #433386)
* Make /lib/init/vars.sh usable when 'set -e' is in effect. Patch
from Ubuntu.
* Rename 20_pidof.dpatch to 80_killall_pidof.dpatch, to group the
killall5 patches together.
* New patch 82_killall_exclude_pids.dpatch adding new option -o
to killall5, to omit killing the pid given on the command line.
Based on patch from Ubuntu. (Closes: #453042)
* Use new killall5 -o option in init.d/sendsigs, reading pids to
omit from /var/run/sendsigs.omit. This make it possible to list
pids there if the process is required to umount the file systems
during shutdown. Make initscripts depend on sysvinit-utils
(>= 2.86.ds1-39) to make sure killall5 support the -o option.
Based on patch from Ubuntu.
* Stop progress bar on ltsp-client-core too. The script was renamed
in recent ltsp versions. Based on patch from Ubuntu.
* Add linux-gnulp to debian/deps-mount, to get the correct behaviour
with regard to initscripts dependencies on lpia. Patch from Adam
Conrad in Ubuntu.
* Add splash screen / progress bar API to initscripts in
/lib/init/splash-functions-base, overridable by the splash
implementations in /lib/init/splash-functions. Based on patch
from David Härdeman. (Closes: #423095) Make initscripts conflict
with usplash (<< 0.5) to make sure a version with PULSATE support
is used.
* Rewrite init.d/rc progress bar support to use new API. Move
usplash calls to separate file splash-functions-usplash. This
file should be moved to the usplash package. Based on patch from
David Härdeman.
* Do not mount gfs2 as a local file system. It is a network file system.
Patch from Guido Guenther (Closes: #454468).
* Modify update-rc.d to refuse to install init.d scripts with illegal
characters in the names. Only accept [a-zA-Z0-9+.-] to match the
limits on package names. Correct handling of init.d scripts with
+ in their name (Closes: #431224).
.
[ Henrique de Moraes Holschuh ]
* libata shutdown handling fixes:
Check http://linux-ata.org/shutdown.html for information
* init.d/halt: do not issue -h to halt(8) when the kernel supports
auto-shutdown
* init.d/halt, default/halt: add HDDOWN option to override initscript
halt -h logic
* Add halt(5) manpage, updated for HDDOWN. Thanks to Casper Gielen for
the manpage. (Closes: #407211)
