This doesn't seem to be working for me (or it's at least not doing what I want it to do - specifically, terminate 'dhcpcd' without de-configuring the interface).

I see my hook script invoke 'dhcpcd -4 eth0' on the BOUND reason. And I see the following in syslog as a result:

20170615 09:32:22.864 info daemon(dhcpcd-run-hooks):eth0: 60-xxxx: received reason=BOUND
20170615 09:32:23.020 info daemon(dhcpcd-run-hooks):eth0: 60-xxxx: terminating 'dhcpcd -4 eth0'

20170615 09:32:23.054 info daemon(dhcpcd-run-hooks):eth0: 60-xxxx: received reason=STOPPED

This is with 'master' in the configuration file (without master the attempt to call 'dhcpcd -x' times out). The problem here is that I don't want this termination to result in the interface being de-configured. So, is there a way around this?

Thanks,
