🌐 Web query:
quay.io/fedora/fedora:45 Dockerfile STOPSIGNAL SIGRTMIN+3
💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
The use of STOPSIGNAL SIGRTMIN+3 in a Dockerfile is a standard practice when running systemd or /sbin/init as the PID 1 process inside a container [1][2][3]. By default, container runtimes (such as Docker or Podman) send SIGTERM to the main process (PID 1) when a container is stopped [4]. However, systemd does not interpret SIGTERM as a command to halt; instead, it often treats it as a request to isolate to rescue mode or may not react to it as expected for a shutdown [1][2]. The signal SIGRTMIN+3 is specifically recognized by systemd as a trigger to perform a clean manager shutdown, which is functionally equivalent to running systemctl halt inside the container [1][3]. While the base Fedora container images (e.g., quay.io/fedora/fedora:45) do not include this STOPSIGNAL instruction by default [5][6], it is common for users building custom systemd-enabled container images to add it manually to ensure graceful shutdowns [2][7][8][9]: FROM fedora:45 STOPSIGNAL SIGRTMIN+3 CMD ["/sbin/init"] If you are encountering issues where a container running systemd fails to shut down properly, ensuring that the Dockerfile includes STOPSIGNAL SIGRTMIN+3 or passing --stop-signal=SIGRTMIN+3 to the container runtime at execution time is the recommended solution [1][10][2].

Set the systemd stop signal. The image runs /sbin/init as PID 1, but quay.io/fedora/fedora:45 does not define a stop signal. Docker therefore sends SIGTERM, which does not cleanly shut down systemd and can lead to SIGKILL after the stop timeout. Add STOPSIGNAL SIGRTMIN+3 before CMD.
