Hi Steven, I use s6/s6-rc/s6-linux-init on most of my computers (few laptops, desktop and RPi3). It works just as expected, however it took some time to built whole dependency graph of all services and oneshots, especially to make some parts sharable across multiple machines. A little disadvantage is the lack of support in Gentoo, by which I mean there are no s6 run scripts installed by emerge. A slightly bigger disadvantage is/was some collision of s6-linux-init with sysvinit or openrc (I don't remember exactly) which led me to creation of my own s6 profiles (see https://github.com/arkamar/overlay/tree/master/profiles). Looking to the history, I already use s6 powered Gentoos for more than 3 years and except of those few struggles, everything works just fine. Petr

Basic idea makes sense: Avoids systemd's overboard approach, does solve issues with pidfiles and logic races. I've written similar things for Docker so the basic idea seems workable. Not sure if I've missed anything in their description that makes it hell to actually use, however :-) -- Steven Lembark Workhorse Computing lemb...@wrkhors.com +1 888 359 3508

[gentoo-user] Anyone have experience, good or bad, with s6?
Seems like a reasonable idea, wondering if anyone has seen particularly good or bad results from trying to use it (on gentoo or anything else). Thanks -- Steven Lembark Workhorse Computing lemb...@wrkhors.com +1 888 359 3508
