Instead of restarting the service we have the service started *after*
our modification to its configuration.
This makes it slightly more inconvenient to reset the WiFi BSSIDs while
the device is booted but that capability can be restored and made better
through an executable, say, /usr/bin/reset-wifi-bssids or something.
We also split the volatile client MACs into its own service to have
a bit of a clearer separation of duties. This will allow us to eventually
split the package more easily into sub-packages with finer-grained control.
This can currently only provide a random IMEI only. But we could easily
recover the deleted script. But it'd be nicer to have a central
configuration for the mode.
When toggling the switch, a lock is held for a relatively long time,
preventing another toggling of the switch to be noticed. With this
change, I hope we can first shutdown the modem, wait for a toggle, and
then continue.
We're losing the abort function but I currently don't know how we would
be able to keep that functionality given that the toggle is queued and
we don't get the notification.
I hope that this allows us to use the toggle again to advance the Blue
Merle logic.
If all goes well, the script finishes execution and the switch lock in
/var/lock/gl-switch.lock is released so that the button can be used
again.
We don't want to let it run forever because it blocks the toggle from
working. But even if it's not, we wouldn't want to have the script run
eternally.
I think we can only toggle while the handler is not active.
I toggled to ON and got the script running. But then I couldn't toggle
OFF, presumingly because the script was still running.
By sending it to the background I hope it will allow me to toggle OFF.
We can probably set the IMEI through the gl_modem command.
Currently, the Web interface times out when calling random-imei. I want
to separate the steps so that each step does not take as long.
Somehow it disconnects me from the wifi, I guess it's related to
restarting the gl-tertf service. I wonder whether the installation
completes so I make a message appear.
rather than deleting everything.
It seems that the device stops working when deleting the database. That
is, the connection to the Internet stops working which is very safe as
it does not leak any data but arguably defeats the purpose of the
device.
So with the commas only, it installed without complaining. Which is
weird, because what does it recognise as dependency that it think is
fulfilled? The long name with all the commas?
The intention is to have the system recognise our dependencies and to
reject installation if the dependencies are not met. Better yet, have it
install the dependencies!
This is a snapshot only. It does not work and serves as a prototype
only. Now, we can see how to add a menu item and how to call our
executable on the flash.
