1) shutdown doesn't work as its using the busybox one not s6
TODO - bugs, missing bits, other infelicities as they occur to me:
2) think we shouldn't have process-based services like dhcp, ppp
1) shutdown doesn't work as its using the busybox one not s6.
2) perhaps we shouldn't have process-based services like dhcp, ppp
implement "address provider interface" - instead have a separate
service for interface address that depends on the service and uses its
output
* ppp is not like dhcp because dhcp finds addresses for an existing
interface but ppp makes a new one
3) when I killed ppp it restarted, but I don't think it reran
defaultroute which is supposed to depend on it. (Might be important
e.g. if we'd been assigned a different IP address). Investigate
semantics of s6-rc service dependencies
DONE 4) make the pppoe test run unattended
5) write a test for udhcp
6) squashfs size is ~ 14MB for a configuration with not much in it,
look for obvious wastes of space
7) some of the pppoe config should be moved into a ppp service
8) some of configuration.nix (e.g. defining routes) should be moved into
tools
9) split tools up instead of having it all one file
10) is it OK to depend on squashfs pseudofiles if we might want to
switch to ubifs? will there always be a squashfs underneath? might
we want to change the pseudofiles in an overlay?
11) haven't done (overlayfs) overlays at all
12) overlay.nix needs splitting up
13) upgrade ppp to something with an ipv6-up-script option
14) add ipv6 support generally
15) "ip address add" seems to magically recognise v4 vs v6 but
is that specified or fluke?
16) tighten up the module specs. (DONE) services.foo should be a s6-rc
service, kernel config should be checked in some way
DONE 17) rename nixwrt references in kernel builder
18) maybe stop suffixing all the service names with .service
