startup trouble due to missing interfaces

[pedro-nonfree]

At the moment I'm newbie with this, but we had race conditions issues during boot because of /etc/init.d/bmx6 file

question: what do you think about this issue => https://gitlab.com/guifi-exo/temba/issues/18

we are going to patch on temba "firmware", but probably this is useful for bmx6 in general (so should we patch it to upstream? where is it?)

Thanks for reading

[aparcar]

Check put openwrt-routing/packages here on github. It stores all OpenWrt specific files for bmx6

[pedro-nonfree]

Thanks!

https://github.com/openwrt-routing/packages/blob/master/bmx6/files/etc/init.d/bmx6

https://github.com/openwrt-routing/packages/blob/master/bmx7/files/etc/init.d/bmx7

@aparcar @axn and what do you think to change from START=91 to START=99 in that files? Is enough having the discussion here?

[aparcar]

Are you sure that solves the issue. Checking the gitlab issue a few more logs could help. What is blocking?

[dyangol]

Hi @aparcar,

really we're not sure if this solves the issue. The performed tests suggest bmx6 needs to be start later almost in LEDE 17.01.4. If we delay it in someway (START=99, including sleep 8 in /etc/init.d/bmx6 or both of them) tunnels are set up. If we start bmx6 without these modifications the tunnels are not set up.

Can you confirm this issue in a fresh LEDE/OpenWRT?

@pedro-nonfree @dyangol hi, thanks for the clarification

I patched and cleaned the inti script so that it looks for interface changes and reloads bmx automatically, please test this (untested) version here

https://github.com/aparcar/packages-1/commit/9c0e733af12a553be53bd8a296c83b6771b0893f

If it works I'll create a PR to merge it upstream

[aparcar]

@dangowrt @axn can you explain the magic of this part? It looks a bit hacky and could be replaced by the procd triggers, can't it?

@aparcar I've just tried your commited /etc/init.d/bmx6 in a Nanostation M5 (17.01.4) and it does not work for me. My specific network configuration /etc/config/network:

config interface 'loopback'                                                                                                                                                [10/1873]

@aparcar apparently bmx6 try to start on an interface name wif0_t that is futher created. When it is finally created bmx6 does not retry. I append this logread sample:

[aparcar]

Please show the contents of /etc/config/bmx6. The idea of the interface triggers is that automatically reloads once one of the "to be used" interfaces changes it state. Therefore it should work even if wif0_t appears late...

[dyangol]

This is the content of my /etc/config/bmx6:

config bmx6 'general'
        option dbgMuteTimeout '1000000'
        option tunOutTimeout '100000'

        option syslog '0'

        option plugin 'bmx6_sms.so'

config plugin 'bmx6_table_plugin'
        option plugin 'bmx6_table.so'

@dyangol could you change this line from reload to restart? I'm not sure if bmx accepts new interfaces via a reload. If that doesn't help neither I'll get in contact with @axn to fix the problem

[dyangol]

No luck :-( I've applied the suggested modification in /etc/init.d/bmx6, in the last line:

dev_trigger() {
    local cfg="$1"
    config_get dev "$cfg" dev
    procd_add_interface_trigger "interface.*" ${dev} "/etc/init.d/$NAME" restart

[aparcar]

@dangowrt can you please have a look at the trigger part of the init script?

[axn]

In general, Bmx accepts new interfaces via reload. Used many times
