You will find in the attached file "syslog.patch" a patch which adds
config options to set at compile time the size of the circular buffer,
and some documentation update.

the busybox menuconfig triggered my "inacceptable number of spelling mistakes"
upper level, so I decided to make a patch ;-)
I also improved some wording to describe some things in a better way.
Many thanks for an incredible piece of software!

Hi Eric
I have written a small patch for the Busybox syslogd. With this patch
one can limit the size of the messagfile. As soon as the limit is
reached the syslogd can rotate or purge the messagefile(s) on his own.
There is no necessity to use an external rotatescript.
Even if logread does something similar, its very handy to have some
messagefile after your box crash.
I wrote this patch initial vor BB 0.6x where no cron daemon was avail.
Now I adapted it for the new Version and i hope it is still useful. At
least I still use it :-)
bye

Add follow mode to logread, ala "tail -f /var/log/messages"
Note: output to a slow serial terminal can have side effects
on syslog because of the semaphore. In such case, define
RC_LOGREAD.

Hi.
Last patch have new libbb function
vfork_rexec() for can use daemon() to uClinux system.
This patched daemons: syslog, klogd, inetd, crond.
This not tested! I havn`t this systems.
Also. Previous patch for feature request MD5 crypt password for
httpd don`t sended to this mailist on 07/15/03
(mailist have Pytom module problem?).
The previous patch included, and have testing.

problem with syslogd logging the '<' char.
|
|
'>' charactor can be logged, per rfc3164.
Also, a small patch from me to fix it so we use MAXLINE when allocating the
buffer, which is consistant with use everywhere else. This is needed since
uClibc defines BUFSIZE as 255, causing lines to be truncated at 255...

modified Kbuild system I put into uClibc. With this, there should be no more
need to modify Rules.mak since I've moved all the interesting options into the
config system. I think I've got everything updated, but you never know, I may
have made some mistakes, so watch closely.

Hi, Erik.
my_getpw(uid/gid) and applets used it have problem:
if username for uid not found, applets can`t detect it
(but code pessent). Also "%8ld " format is bad:
spaces not required (applets have self format
or spec format (tar applet) and overflow for "id" applet...)
This problem also pressent in stable version.
Patch for unstable in attach.

klogd specific messages to facility LOG_SYSLOG and tidies up some
of the priorities.

Ok. Patch with reduce size ready.
Notes: syslogd imposible close logsocket,
the real programm write logmessages (hmm, cycle loop?)
(Excuse me - this have small tab-formats rewroting also)

change in uClibc that changed opening the /dev/log socket as
SOCK_STREAM to SOCK_DGRAM, busybox syslogd no longer worked
since it needed a matching change. This fixes it so it
works once again.

I am using BB 0.60.2 in a floppy distro, and the syslog (and logger) is
unable to log the "<" char. This shows up in ppp logfiles. [...]
#logger "<pcomp>" results in "comp>" arriving at the log.

the busybox development tree. This eliminates the use of recursive make, and
once again allows us to run 'make' in a subdirectory with the expected result.
And things are now much faster too. Greatly improved IMHO...

make busybox be more uClinux friendly. I also adjusted Config.h for
uClinux so it will automagically disable apps the arn't going to
work without fork() and such.

1) ping cleanup (compile fix from this patch already applied).
2) traceroute call not spare ntohl() now (and reduce size);
3) Fix for functions not declared static in insmod, ash, vi and mount.
4) a more simple API cmdedit :))
5) adds "stopped jobs" warning to ash on Ctrl-D and fixes "ignoreeof" option
6) reduce exporting library function index->strchr (traceroute), bzero->memset (syslogd)

apparently gcc 2.95.4, at least, is too stupid to realize that a
"static const int" is in fact a constant.
