Features

• Container Init Process - Acts as the root init process within a container to manage the lifecycle of a primary child process.
• Container Entrypoint Execution - Acts as a lightweight wrapper for OCI compliant containers that prevents the primary process from ignoring critical termination signals.
• OCI Container Process Management - Manages the primary process in an OCI compliant container to prevent PID 1 from ignoring critical termination signals.
• Zombie Process Reclamation - Continuously monitors and collects terminated child processes to prevent the process table from filling with defunct entries.
• Process Signal Forwarding - Intercepts and propagates system signals from the container runtime to child processes to ensure graceful application shutdowns.
• Process Supervision - Manages the lifecycle of a primary child process while acting as the root init process within the container.
• Graceful Shutdowns - Forwards system signals from the container runtime to child processes to ensure applications terminate cleanly and correctly.
• Recursive Process Termination - Sends signals to all processes within the child group to terminate deep process trees and ensure no descendants linger.
• Parent Death Detection - Detects when the parent process terminates and triggers a signal to coordinate the shutdown of child processes.
• Process Group Signaling - Sends signals to an entire process group rather than a single PID to terminate deep process hierarchies.
• Parent Termination Detection - Detects when the parent process terminates and triggers a specific signal to coordinate the shutdown of children.
