A peer can be dropped from inside its own read loop: a handler emits a signal, the write to that very peer fails, and the drop lands while link_connection_process() still holds the connection and will touch its rx buffer on the way out. Freeing there pulls the ground out from under it. Unlink the peer and let the event loop free it once the stack has unwound. The work has to be scheduled with a non-zero delay. A uev timer armed with zero is a disarmed timer, so the queue would never run and the connections would leak instead. Losing a peer is also not a warning. It is what shutdown looks like from here, and every reboot said so on the console. Signed-off-by: Joachim Wiberg <troglobit@gmail.com>
Finit is a fast, simple alternative to SysV init and systemd, designed for small and embedded Linux systems. It can also run on desktop and server systems, like finix.

For working examples, see the 🚀 contrib/ section or these tutorials:
- 🛠️ Buildroot embedded Linux,
- 📦 Debian GNU/Linux,
- ⛰️ Alpine Linux, and
- 🌌 Void Linux
Note
Finit can run on various Linux distributions, but the bundled install scripts are examples only. They have been tested on amd64 (x86_64) systems with standard configurations.
For embedded systems, see these Buildroot-based examples: myLinux, Infix, or br2-finit-demo.
