When s6-rc stops a service, it also stops everything that
depends on it. but when it starts a service it starts only
that service, so we have to go through the other services
depending on it and figure out if they should be started too.
- uncontrolled services that are not dependent on a controlled service
- controllers
- _not_ controlled services or any other service that depends on one
Instead of treating the trigger as the "main" service and the
triggered service as subsidary, now we treat the triggered
service as the service and the trigger as "subsidary". This
needs some special handling when we work out which services
go in the default bundle, but it works better for declaring
dependencies on triggered services because it means the
dependency runs after the triggered service comes up, not
just when the watcher-for-events starts
Good: this means it's not hanging holding the s6 dataase lock.
Bad: it's the ugliest implementation and doesn't deserve to be preserved
(tbf the ugliness is not new)
We call s6-rc -u -p default to restart/start the base services
on a rebuild, otherwise services that are only in the new
configuration won't come up. However, this stops any service
started by a trigger. So, workaround is to restart the trigger
service and expect it to restart the services it manages if they're
needed
this is like pkgs.callService except that it passes
config.system.service as a param so that the service
being defined can invoke other services
if this proves to be a good idea, all uses of
pkgs.callService should be changed to use it instead
a firewall with no configuration will get a relatively sane ruleset. a
firewall with `extraRules` will get them deep merged into the default
rules. Specifying `rules` will override the defaults
config.boot.commandLineDtbNode can be set from `bootargs` to
`bootargs-override` (used for boards where the u-boot on the board does
set `bootargs` on its own).
In that case, the code updating the cmdline for tftpboot purposes also
needs to update this node, not the `bootargs` node.
Otherwise the kernel won't find the phram device, as it never heard
about it, as it didn't get the necessary cmdline options.
this is a bit of an experiment to reduce the copy-paste in
examples by turning them into "application" modules.
planning to follow up with another module for "wifi router"
This adds a simple boot blessing module, to be used, with the Zyxel NWA50AX.
There's a lot of elephant in the rooms: how do you upgrade kernel, etc.
