How to stop container within itself?

I am experimenting to let container terminate itself (for example, when it detects exception). But shutdown seems not working. Here is what I run inside the container.

$ sudo shutdown -h now
shutdown: Unable to shutdown system

Broadcast message from ...

The system is going down for halt NOW!

When hitting "Enter", it comes back.

Is it possible to do so?

The container stops once the entrypoint exits. If you entered in interactive mode just do ctrl + D.
