* Improve shutdown splash screen reliabilityRay Strode2010-05-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now the splash screen and rc script are racing with each other so you occasionally see a few shutdown messages before plymouth is up. This commit ensures proper synchronization between prefdm, plymouthd, and the rc script. It does this by 1) fully stopping prefdm before letting rc start 2) fully starting plymouth before letting rc start 3) if prefdm is running (e.g. runlevel 5), waiting until it is fully stopped before starting plymouthd 4) if prefdm is not running (e.g. runlevel 3), starting plymouthd right away One bit of complication in this commit is the "splash manager". It's a layer of indirection needed to handle the conditional mentioned in 3) and 4). There's no way within an upstart job file to say "start after the prefdm "stopped" event only if prefdm is not already stopped". We really need this to effectively happen, though, because if prefdm isn't in the process of stopping (because it was never started in the first place), it will never emit the stopped event and blocking for an event that never comes mean shutdown would never start. The splash manager checks if prefdm is already running and uses that information to emit an appropriate event that the plymouth-shutdown job can key of off. Note, one implication of 4) is we are showing plymouth when shutting down from runlevel 3 now. This is a change in behavior, but makes sense, since we show plymouth when starting up into runlevel 3.
