When a platform # wraps the image entrypoint under its own PID-1 init (Fly Machines, # `docker run --init`, some schedulers), `/init` would abort with # `can only run as pid 1`; in that case the dispatcher falls back to # `stage2-hook.sh` + `main-wrapper.sh` directly so foreground commands still # work. See #38349. # # On the PID-1 path, s6-overlay's /init sets up the supervision tree, runs # /etc/cont-init.d/* (our stage2 hook), starts s6-rc services declared in # /etc/s6-overlay/s6-rc.d/, then exec's its remaining argv as the container's # "main program" with stdin/stdout/stderr inherited (this is what makes # interactive --tui work). When the main program exits, /init begins stage 3 # shutdown and the container exits with the program's exit code.

The dispatcher preserves that contract across both the # supervised PID-1 path and the non-PID-1 fallback path.
