2008-04-21If a |program is too slow to process the input,Marco Pfatschbacher
drop messages rather than to kill and restart it. Also log this error, but limited at a 2 minute rate. Discussed with henning. OK henning@
2008-03-24msg_controllen has to be CMSG_SPACE so that the kernel can account forTheo de Raadt
each cmsg_len (ie. msg_controllen = sum of CMSG_ALIGN(cmsg_len). This works now that kernel fd passing has been fixed to accept a bit of sloppiness because of this ABI repair. lots of discussion with kettenis

2007-03-06mention log to pipe in the blurb here. the details are all in syslog.conf.5,Henning Brauer
the syslogd.8 blurb has just a list.
2007-02-21Create "syslogd: restart" message after the setup of signalMarco Pfatschbacher
handlers. This prevents a race where syslogd could die on SIGPIPE at startup. Also distinguish between start and restart. OK henning@

2007-02-20implement logging to other program's stdin.Henning Brauer
if the target is like "| /path/to/program", syslogd forks and execs program and sends the selected log messages to program's stdin. uses a socketpair, grows the receive buffer on the reader side and has the socket nonblocking on syslog'd side to prevent syslogd blocking. I'm using that here to feed logsurfer from ports for automated log analysis, werks beautifully. lots of input & help mpf, ok mpf djm "no objections" millert

Works like ``tail -f'' on a log file. OK markus@, djm@

them, following an identical change in openssh
2006-07-09Use sigaction() instead of signal() in the parent and use theTodd C. Miller
SA_NOCLDSTOP flag for the SIGCHLD handler so the kernel does not notify us when the child has been stopped, only when it exits. Fixes a problem where if you suspended the child process the parent would exit. OK otto@

2004-12-20Fix one case of broken duplicate supression, which happens if two linesOtto Moerbeek
in syslog.conf contain the same target file, and log entries matching both the first and second line get written. This changes behaviour: e.g. previously repeating a line caused a log entry to be written twice, but not any more. Also, if a later line with the same target has a different priority for a facility, the last one will be used. Noted by camield@; help from millert@. ok camield@ millert@ hshoexer@ deraadt@
