23e591f485 Properly patch up dirname()/basename() calls to not clobber ent->log.
It turns out that we had a couple of more calls to dirname()/basename()
in newsyslog(8) that assume the input isn't clobbered. This is bad,
because it apparently breaks log rotation now that the new dirname()
implementation has been merged.

Fix this by first copying the input and then calling
dirname()/basename(). While there, improve the naming of variables in
this function a bit.

f0d2919243 Clean up use of basename() and dirname().
Pull copies of the input pathname string before calling basename() and
dirname() to make this comply to POSIX. Free these copies at the end of
this function. While there, remove the duplication of the 's' ->
'logfname' string. There is no need for this.

c152ba971f newsyslog: Eliminate unnecessary sleep(10) when -R and -s are specified
After going through the signal work list, during which do_sigwork()
is called and essentially does nothing because -s and -R were
specified on the command line, newsyslog will sleep for 10 seconds
as the (verbose) code says: "Pause 10 seconds to allow daemon(s)
to close log file(s)".

However, the man page verbiage for -R (and -s) seems quite clear
that this sleep() is unnecessary because the daemon was expected
to have already closed the log file before calling newsyslog.

430f7286a5 Merge ^/user/ngie/release-pkg-fix-tests to unbreak how test files are installed
after r298107

Summary of changes:

- Replace all instances of FILES/TESTS with ${PACKAGE}FILES. This ensures that
  namespacing is kept with FILES appropriately, and that this shouldn't need
  to be repeated if the namespace changes -- only the definition of PACKAGE
  needs to be changed
- Allow PACKAGE to be overridden by callers instead of forcing it to always be
  `tests`. In the event we get to the point where things can be split up
  enough in the base system, it would make more sense to group the tests
  with the blocks they're a part of, e.g. byacc with byacc-tests, etc
- Remove PACKAGE definitions where possible, i.e. where FILES wasn't used
  previously.
- Remove unnecessary TESTSPACKAGE definitions; this has been elided into
  bsd.tests.mk
- Remove unnecessary BINDIRs used previously with ${PACKAGE}FILES;
  ${PACKAGE}FILESDIR is now automatically defined in bsd.test.mk.
- Fix installation of files under data/ subdirectories in lib/libc/tests/hash
  and lib/libc/tests/net/getaddrinfo
- Remove unnecessary .include <bsd.own.mk>s (some opportunistic cleanup)

Document the proposed changes in share/examples/tests/tests/... via examples
so it's clear that ${PACKAGES}FILES is the suggested way forward in terms of
replacing FILES. share/mk/bsd.README didn't seem like the appropriate method
of communicating that info.

caeff1fd44 newsyslog: treat 'c' flag in the config as 'C'
When -C was introduced in r114137 the plan was to have -C and -c being used for
"create" due to a typo in FreeBSD <= 4.8 a temporary compatibility hack has been
added to make -c being like -G aka GLOB and a warning was issued for the user to
be aware of the futur change for -c.

12 years later it is more than time to remove that hack and finish the what was
intent in r114137

d14afb2adc Migrate tools/regression/{usr.bin/lastcomm,usr.sbin}/ to the new tests layout.
This change was originally going to only migrate the usr.sbin tests but, as
it turns out, the usr.sbin/sa/ tests require files from usr.bin/lastcomm/
so it's better to just also migrate the latter at the same time.  The other
usr.bin tests will be moved separately.

To make these tests work within the test suite, some of them have required
changes to prevent modifying the source directory and instead just rely on
the current directory for file manipulation.

872e964d07 Add support for creating the archived log filenames using a time-stamp
instead of the traditional simple counter.

Using the time-stamp based file-names, once a log file is archived, it
will not change name until it is deleted.  This means that many backup
systems will only perform one backup of the archived log file, instead
for performing a new backup of the logfile upon each logfile rotation.

This implementation is separate from the patches in the mentioned PR,
as I wasn't aware of the existence of the PR until after I had
implemented the same functionality as the patches in the PR provide.
Unlike the PR, this new code does honor the 'log count' in
newsyslog.conf so old logfiles are deleted.  This new code does not
currently support never deleting the archived logfiles.

neworder change. Keep the option in a config file parser, to not

616270cb21 Improve error-handling related to the fork() done to compress files after
they have been rotated.  Among other things, use warnx() instead of warn()
for some messages where the value if errno is irrelevant to the problem
being reported.

deea909a70 Add the -N option to not rotate any files. This is to be used in
cojunction with -C and is used by /etc/rc.d/newsyslog.

I forgot that this was in my perforce tree and not my running system and
thus committed a non-working newsyslog script.

9e3daa8dcf Because the `permission' field in conf_entry is intended to be used as
parameter 2 in chmod(2), which is a mode_t (and in turn a __uint_16_t),
it's more likely that it should be defined as an unsigned variable.

This commit should make newsyslog WARNS=6 clean, but don't bump the knob
until I have a universe build.

59fdf30f92 Don't prepend the directory specified by -d when the file is a relative
path.  Doing so makes no sense.  I'm not sure allowing relative paths
makes sense either, but I'm not going to break that now.

842ba60ee2 Add a new -d argument which is used to specify an alternate root for log
files similar to DESTDIR in the BSD make process.  This only affects log
file paths not config file (-f) or archive directory (-a) paths.

ea6902220d Nothing says that /var/log can't be not a directory but a symbolic link
to a directory. Therefore, use stat(2) instead of lstat(2) to check if
/var/log exists.

5ff798ca5f Fix the check for a "duplicate filename to compress", so that we're checking
the *filename* and not the pid_file(!).   Stupid brain-fault on my part.
This could cause a segfault under -neworder if newsyslog had to rotate
multiple files, and later ones had specifed the 'N' flag.

c8fd7c3227 Switch to using the "neworder" for rotating log files, by default. The
main advantage of this is that daemon's are only signalled once per run,
instead of once for each file that is rotated.
