Bug Description

I have this job: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6189473/

I'm running this script: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6189469/

And this is what I get: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6189493/

From it, the property says it's running, the android side (upstart-property-watcher) says it's running, the property says it's running, the upstart job though didn't seem to be triggered in all boots

One thing I did noticed when looking at the code is that the 'socket_reader' function seems to expect the input buffer to be one-line only, and not a block (buf could be a block when reading data from the socket).

As a result upstart_emit_event can emit 'buf' containing more than one event at the same time (including "\n"), which might cause issues later on.

As I'm not that familiar with the code, will let James to comment on the subject.

Tried changing /etc/init/ofono.override to include a job dependency in there, but it failed because it seems upstart tried to start the job as soon the android-container event was available.

Changed /etc/init/ofono.override to:
"""
start on (started dbus and
          android-container init.svc.ril-daemon=running and
          file FILE=/dev/socket)
"""

Then checking syslog, after a reboot:
Oct 4 00:18:55 ubuntu-phablet kernel: [ 6.159072] init: ofono pre-start process (660) terminated with status 127

The issue is gone after I remove the android-container line.

I might be missing something as I'm not that familiar with the upstart syntax.
