when using the shell, it's now possible to trigger configd actions in a more natrual way, for example:
configdctl configd actions
(to list all registered actions)
It's been confusing to say the least, resulting in multiple
misuses throughout the code. The idea was that /cf pointed
to a read-write root, while / pointed to read-only root.
For non-embedded images this was emulated by linking
/conf -> /cf/conf, which, is a bit questionable because now
you can write from /conf as well and don't have to use /cf/conf
at all.
A couple of lines are left in /usr/local/etc/rc which need to
be reviewed so that migration paths are safe for all types
of firmware upgrades.
- remove the use for pfSctl, replaced with a new configd control script to be able to remove the check_reload_status port
- replace use of global $g['booting'] because some scripts use this outside the main loop which causes strange behavior ( for example dhcp client which starts a newwanip on connect ). replaced which check on file /var/run/booting which is set in rc script
Make "src" the implicit "/usr/local" so that nobody can
sneak in weird files in the base file system or potentially
overwrite them.
This is the last time, I swear... :)
