545151d107 Eliminate spurious periodic.daily error message for rotating accounting log.
In 2011, r218961 removed local code for rotating logs in favor of using the
rotate_log command in etc/rc.d/accounting.  If the accounting service is
activated then subsequently de-activated in rc.conf but still remains active
in periodic.conf, then you get an error message every day in the periodic
jobs about being unable to rotate the logs.

With this change to use "onerotate_log", the log rotation will happen the
first time periodic daily runs after accounting was disabled but periodic
accounting was left enabled.  After that happens once, the /var/account/acct
will no longer exist, which results in a different path through the periodic
code and no more error messages will appear (unless daily_show_badconfig is
set, in which case the admin will be told that periodic security processing
is enabled but the accounting file is not present).

This is only a partial fix for the problems reported in PR 202203.

ab478b0185 Prevent periodic/etc/weekly/340.noid from descending into root directories
of jails. Jails have their own user/group databases and this script
can produce multiple false warnings, not to mention significant extra
load in case of large jailed subtrees. Leave this check for jailed
invocations of the same script.

8394104312 periodic: fix exit status for nonexistent arguments
When called with an absolute pathname, periodic should attempt to execute
every script in that directory. If the directory does not exist, it should
print an error and exit 1. Due to a copy/paste mistake in r231568, it exits
0 in that case.

86571b9c01 Consolidate random sleeps in periodic scripts
Multiple periodic scripts sleep for a random amount of time in order to
mitigate the thundering herd problem. This is bad, because the sum of
multiple uniformly distributed random variables approaches a normal
distribution, so the problem isn't mitigated as effectively as it would be
with a single sleep.

This change creates a single configurable anticongestion sleep. periodic
will only sleep if at least one script requires it, and it will never sleep
more than once per invocation. It also won't sleep if periodic was run
interactively, fixing an unrelated longstanding bug.

c5b5b50ded Better document security_show_{success,info,badconfig} in /etc/periodic.conf
periodic(8) already handles the security_show_{success,info,badconfig}
variables correctly. However, those variables aren't explicitly set in
/etc/defaults/periodic.conf or anywhere else, which suggests to the user
that they shouldn't be used.

etc/defaults/periodic.conf
	Explicitly set defaults for security_show_{success,info,badconfig}

usr.sbin/periodic/periodic.sh
	Update usage string

usr.sbin/periodic/periodic.8
	Minor man page updates

One thing I'm _not_ doing is recommending setting security_output to
/var/log/security.log or adding that file to /etc/newsyslog.conf, because
periodic(8) would create it with default permissions, usually 644, and
that's probably a bad idea.

94582faa19 Include the calling context in the mail subject, if any.
More concretely, periodic security scripts defaults to being
called from daily ones -- daily context -- so the mail subject
will now be "${HOST} daily security run output" instead of
"{HOST} security run output".

If you switch the period of some security checks to weekly, you
will receive another email "${HOST} weekly security run output".

2204f3ce42 Long ago, there was just /etc/daily. Then /etc/security was split out
of /etc/daily. Some time later, /etc/daily became a set of periodic(8)

broken into periodic(8) scripts to make local customization easier and
more maintainable.
