nut: fix setting RUNAS and STATEPATH in hotplug scripts

2026-09-10T08:22:36Z

A previous PR missed updating the hotplug scripts for the new find_runas and find_statepath functions which emit the value on stdout instead of setting a variable in the caller's scope. Update that usage and handle error conditions. Also ensure we fully handle finding the group of the RUNAS user for the serial usb hotplug case, and handle error conditions for that.

nut: fix matching hotplugged device

2026-09-10T08:22:36Z

The match against known device was badly formatted, and was not being used as a result. Fix that. Also, completely ignore events which are incomplete for our purposes (that is, which are missing ACTION or DEVNAME). Signed-off-by: Daniel F. Dickinson

nut: prevent service thrashing on boot or hotplug

2026-09-10T08:22:36Z

On boot, hotplug events were causing excessive start and stop action for the upsd daemon and driver daemons. We fix that with two primary actions: 1. Don't restart service daemons on hotplug until after first boot has completed. 2. Use more robust handling of procd instance starts by ensuring that the first start starts the nut-server service and all others add to the nut-server service (rather than replacing it). Ignore hotplug events without a DEVNAME. In addition clean up some logging. In the process, this fixes #30375 "hotplugging for setting usb access right[s] doesn't work anymore" Closes: #30375 Signed-off-by: Daniel F. Dickinson

nut: fix custom notification messages

2026-09-10T08:22:36Z

Messages with spaces must be enclosed in double-quotes. Signed-off-by: Daniel F. Dickinson

nut: improve hotplug behaviour for remove

2026-09-10T08:22:36Z

Short-circuit not applicable portions of hotplug script on remove, and make sure we ignore events with incomplete information (no DEVNAME or no ACTION). Signed-off-by: Daniel F. Dickinson

nut: drop unnecessary postinsts

2026-08-19T20:00:56Z

The uci-defaults scripts are already sourced and removed by default_postinst so nut-server and nut-upsmon postinsts in this Makefile are not needed. Signed-off-by: Daniel F. Dickinson

nut: tweak configure settings for NUT 2.8.5+

2026-08-19T20:00:56Z

Update deprecated configure option for NUT build. Signed-off-by: Daniel F. Dickinson

nut: enable shared NSS certificate/key database for upsd and upsmon

2026-08-19T20:00:56Z

Create a group to allow sharing directories files between upsd and upsmon, and create a shared NSS certificate/key database on postinst of nut-common (providing the database dir does not already exist). Also enables preserving the shared database across sysupgrades. Signed-off-by: Daniel F. Dickinson

nut: enable peer certificate verification

2026-08-19T20:00:56Z

Enable CERTVERIFY, CERTREQUEST, and related options for requiring verified certificates from peers. While we are at it, alphabetize the list of PKG_CONFIG_DEPENDS in the Makefile Signed-off-by: Daniel F. Dickinson
