This patchset adds the new method "restart" to the ubus service object. This method is called on a service restart, if it is managed by procd.
I have noticed that during a firewall restart the mwan3 rules have all disappeared and I have to restart my service as well. I did not expected this. So that I don't have to do this extra step, an event should be generated during a service restart, so other service could subscribe to this event. All services that want to react to this event can create a callback script. The same applies to a config change. As an example I used the firewall here, because I came across the problem here. So if the firewall gets restart, then a event es generated. Full discussion hat taken place at this URL. https://github.com/openwrt/packages/pull/13931 A pull request is already staged to use this new funcionality. https://github.com/openwrt/packages/pull/14215 v2: - As requested by John Chrispin, I wrapped the new `_procd_add_service_trigger` with the function `_procd_add_restart_service_trigger` to make it a one-liner to use this functionality.
