[systemd-devel] Why ExecStop when service receives SIGTERM?

[Felipe Gasper]

Hello,

	I’m noticing that ExecStop handlers execute not merely as a means for systemd to stop a Service but also when that Service’s main process receives SIGTERM.

	The documentation (systemd.service) says that ExecStop commands are how systemd stops the service; it’s not at all intuitive from that, IMO, that these would also run when something _else_ stops the service.

	Am I missing something in the documentation, or is this a bug?

	I’m running release 219.

	Thank you!
