With this change we can decide if this is a user interaction with CLI/LuCI, because with the new callback mechanism I can set/delete a uci config flag so that the connection should really disconnected. And so does not restart on a failed connetion tracking again because the uci config flag is not set.

netifd already tracks for every interface if the user requested it to be
enabled or not via the 'autostart' flag, which you can query via ubus.

I know this is done wit the uci option auto for this interface.
But if I disable this flag, then on the next boot this interface does not start on boot anymore. I have to start this manual. So I think this is not an option.

Is it enough for your use case to track that flag?

As far as I can tell at this point, it's not an option to use this flag.

If not, please go into more detail, because I don't think hacking

In the LuCI and in the CLI the command ifup/ifdown is used, if the
user wants to start/stop this interface explicitly manual.
The auto option is not touched.

The ifup/ifdown script executes an ubus call to set the interface up/down [1]. After the execution is preformed by netifd (proto) then the hotplug scripts are
execute with different ACTION (up/down/ifup-failed.

If I want to know if the Command is execute by an
user interaction by the CLI (ifup/ifdown) or LuCI [2][3] the only possibility
I have is to hook into the ifup/ifdown command.

I would also like to point out that debian also has this possibility [4] in the
network configuration.
