While Fedora did move towards that, it's not the only way. A lot of systems which require high reliability are built to reload correctly. At a generic system level, for example upgrading Nixos will pull new packages and put them next to the current ones, then reexec where possible. Nginx can replace its master process (SIGUSR2). Telephony software can often reexec and keep connecting open. Etc. Outside of desktops it's not that uncommon to do seamless live reloads of the whole system. |
