FSHALT(8) FSHALT(8)
NAME
fshalt, scram, reboot - halt any local file systems and
optionally shut down or reboot the system
SYNOPSIS
fshalt [ -r [ kernelpath ] ]
reboot [ kernelpath ]
scram
DESCRIPTION
Fshalt syncs and halts all local cwfs(4), hjfs(4),
ext4srv(4), and gefs(4) servers. If given -r, fshalt will
then reboot the machine, optionally starting kernelpath.
Else it will try to shut down the machine through /dev/pmctl
(if available) or invoke scram. The halting and rebooting is
done by copying all necessary commands into a ramfs(4) file
system and changing directory there before attempting to
halt file systems, so this will work even on standalone
machines with their roots on local file systems.
Reboot restarts the machine it is invoked on. If an optional
kernelpath is specified then the machine will load and start
that kernel directly instead of returning to the system rom.
(see cons(3)).
Scram shuts down the machine it is invoked on by writing
power off to /dev/pmctl.

BUGS
On standalone machines, it will be impossible to do anything
if scram fails after invoking bare fshalt.
Scram falls back to trying aux/acpi if writing to /dev/pmctl
fails.
HISTORY
Scram first appeared in 9front (May, 2011).

NAME
reboot - reboot the system upon loss of remote file server
connection
SYNOPSIS
aux/reboot [ file ]
DESCRIPTION
Reboot stats file, default /$cputype/lib, once every five
minutes. If the stat fails, rather than timing out, reboot
reboots the system. This is used to restart diskless cpu
servers whenever their file server connection is broken.
