There is support for depend_${iface}(){}, if the function is defined it's 
executed. I haven't dug deeply enough to see why my before is seemingly 
ignored. It's probably only effective to net scripts, not run scripts in 
general.

  But heartbeat continues to start after the first net service starts, so
  it fails to start as the interface it needs doesn't exist yet.

 Why not set RC_NET_STRICT_CHECKING=yes in /etc/conf.d/rc?

Another excellent suggestion, thanks!

[gentoo-user] fine grained net dependancies

2006-12-06 Thread Mike Williams 
Hey,

At some point I was sure baselayout supported full runscript depend(){} 
syntax, in the form depend_${iface}(){}.
However it's not working quite how I would like it to.
I *need* heartbeat to start *after* br0. (My network config is quite complex, 
br0 is a bridge of bond0 and bond4, bonds 0 and 4 being composed of eths 9, 
2, 6, and 1 respectively.)

I have tried adding
depend_br0(){
before heartbeat
}
I've used both the old and new depend syntax to make the bonds need/NEED the 
eth interfaces, and the bridge need/NEED the bonds.

But heartbeat continues to start after the first net service starts, so it 
fails to start as the interface it needs doesn't exist yet.

I'd really rather not modify the heartbeat init script if at all possible.

Thanks

 You could do his from the postup function in /etc/conf.d/net

 postup() {
   [ ${IFACE} == br0 ]  /etc/init.d/heartbeat start
 }

And take heartbeat out of the default runlevel, clever.

Thanks
