Procd

LEDE uses procd for booting the system, managing processes and handling parts of the kernel/userland interaction. It can be considered similar to systemd on full blown distributions. Here is a list of tasks that procd will do for us

  • provide the pid 1 init service / preinit

  • watchdog

  • inittab

  • init.d

  • hotplug

  • service startup / monitoring

  • (configuration-)triggers
