If so, since which version please?
Looking to adopt this script in favour of firewall-start for the YazFi addon
 
FYI. Since I know how much YazFi is associated w/ wireless, be aware that at least w/ Merlin, there is no service-event-end event for wireless on bootup! Plenty of other services (ntp and alike), but NOT wireless for some strange reason. I assume it's a bug. I ran into this issue a couple of times w/ my own scripts and had to work around it.

I'm currently looking at hooking on firewall events only but i will keep it in mind, thanks!

I wonder if wireless comes up before the event script hooks are loaded?

I don't know. But it does seem weird that particular event just never appear on bootup. I see plenty of other expected events just fine. And once the system boots and you make a wireless change, THEN the event is triggered as would be expected. So clearly wireless does trigger that event, but it just never happens on bootup. That's why I assume it's a bug.

P.S. This is with my RT-AC68U, if it matters.

there's no service-event-end call for firewall on boot either - found on 386.4 AC86U

@RMerlin is it expected some services don't trigger the service-event scripts on boot? I guess the hooks are made after the affected services have already started?

Not everything is run as a service at boot, the initial start of various daemons/operations are directly called by the init code.
