smonit should run also during init #242

Closed ilario closed 6 years ago

ilario commented 6 years ago

It's happening frequently on my router that dnsmasq-dhcpv6 doesn't start with the system so that I have to wait smonit to run (every 5 minutes) for having a DHCP server. I propose to add smonit also as last process in init so that it's run just after the boot.

this issue is about creating a small init script running after all other init scripts and executing smonit

I believe this should not be done, we risk to cause race conditions, as services being tested could be not yet ready and so running the *_fixes at that time could make the openwrt/LEDE init system crazy

Ok, any other solution? Maybe we could decrease the interval time from 5 min to 2-3 min? Or just check if 17.01.4 uses a good version of dnsmasq and move to that as soon as possible? Anyway I reproduced this dnsmasq problem also running LibreMesh in a virtual machine, and dnsmasq never starts by itself.

Please open or reference another issue for the specific dnsmasq bug
