BarryK of Puppylinux's origins has been having a problem I think may be
worth sharing.
(http://bkhome.org/news/201802/experimenting-with-busybox-runit.html)
It's basically because:
"Neither System V init, daemontools, runit or perp provides any hooks to
wait for a service to go up or down. runit provides a waiting mechanism,
but it's based on polling, and the ./check script has to be manually
written for every service." (https://skarnet.org/software/s6/why.html).
I know he's talking about Busybox's runit in this case, but would it be
worth adding this facility to toybox?
