Show a warning if the router is going to reboot soon (due to "commit-confirm" command)

Description

Several times I've used the commit-confirm function and in approximate 50% times I've forgot to confirm the config changes (and a router rebooted).

It's would be nice to see a waning if the router going to reboot in 5/3/1 minutes.

I think we can make it a systemd service that is started on commit-confirm and stopped on confirm.

Would it be too hard to hack the legacy config management script into using systemd for scheduling reboots instead of atd?

dmbaturin added a comment.Feb 4 2021, 11:53 AM

Yes, but since it won't solve the notification problem, these are separate concerns. Let's make a new task for migrating that script from atd to systems for scheduling reboots.

erkin added a parent task: T3285: Schedule reboots through systemd-shutdownd instead of atd.Feb 4 2021, 1:29 PM

I opened T3285 to it. Once the switch to shutdownd is done, I'll incorporate a service that warns the user of an impending shutdown.

This PR adds the notification script.
