Although there probably are a couple of Huawei modems which do report status info as advertised in the script, there are also a lot who don't and maybe deadlocked when pulling for data on a "random" port.
For now we should remove this, if at some point in the future a sensible method would be supported to poll status in a more "vendor independent" manor, we can always revise.
Was in need of something like this to gain access to a ZFS pool without
having to run a command sequence from the top of my head.
Comes in pretty handy when being included from a recovery install stick.
Wanted to do this every now and then since people were not
familiar with clog but never got around to do it. Now that
clog is gone it's easier to do so let's write a few lines
and extend as necessary. :)
It looks like `tail -f' doesn't watch the symlink and instead
tails the target file which makes nightly rotation invisible
and the log starts stalling so it means for any readers of
latest.log it shouldn't be a persistent read.

An idea from the last refactoring: create a database directory
that holds the defaults as portable files with the ability to
invoke other user-created melodies as well as override the default
using ".local" suffix.
CARP: optionally promote/demote on service status event handler.
This adds /usr/local/etc/rc.carp_service_status.d/ to register service check scripts, which on failure exit are considered blocking for normal service operation.
A service should emit the following on status change, which in response might lead to change of carp status:
configctl interface update carp service_status
The included early script assures an initial demotion value before interface setup.
ref https://github.com/opnsense/core/issues/3636
usage: pluginctl [-h] -[c] [-s] [arguments]
optional arguments:
-h show this help text and exit
-c configure mode (default), executes plugin [_configure] hook
-s service mode (e.g. myservice restart)
without arguments, a list of plugins of the requested type is shown
For legacy components route -s option through plugins_services()
to get a list of services that can be controlled like the GUI
controls. E.g.:
# pluginctl dhcpd [start|stop|restart]
