swupdate commandline tool does not take a -u parameter
Closed this issue · 5 comments
There seem to have snuck in a extra -u in the swupdate commandline for sysvinit:
This extra -u does not exist on the systemd version of init systems.
I've only checked this on dunfell distro.
Hi Joakim,
the "-u" parameter is required to provide extra settings to suricatta client daemon:
https://sbabic.github.io/swupdate/swupdate.html#command-line-parameters
Beyond this, the file you are referring is only used for sysVinit and not for systemd.
Assuming you are fine I'm now closing this issue.
Thanks

With suricata disabled, the init script fails... And as you mention this is for sysvinit not systemd. Why would this -u not be needed for systemd where it has been left out??
Probably I'm missing the point, but our layer does enable surricata:
https://github.com/varigit/meta-variscite-fslc/blob/dunfell/dynamic-layers/swupdate/swupdate/defconfig#L47
Feel absolutely free to customize the defconfig, as well as the sysvinit script to fully remove suricatta support.
If you are suggesting to remove the -u options since present only in sysvinit (and not in systemd), I can agree with you, and we can consider it for one of the next releases.
Please let me know if you need further details.
Thanks

That is what i suggest. Seem weird to have it in one, but not the other. I will customize the layer for now. It just seemed like a quite common use case to only allow websever/mongose support and skipping support for the remote server.
Thanks for the proposal, we will discuss this internally.
Please let me know if you need further assistance or I can close this issue.
