systems are fully "ready to go".
'FILESYSTEMS' states: "This is a dummy dependency, for services which
require file systems to be mounted before starting." However, we have
'var' which is was run after 'FILESYSTEMS' and can mount /var if it
already isn't mounted. Furthermore, several scripts cannot use /var
until 'cleanvar' has done its thing. Thus "FILESYSTEMS" hasn't really
meant all critical file systems are fully usable.
assignments to the literal values it would have returned.
The concept of set_rcvar() was nice in theory, but the forks
it creates are a drag on the startup process, which is especially
noticeable on slower systems, such as embedded ones.
During the discussion on freebsd-rc@ a preference was expressed for
using ${name}_enable instead of the literal values. However the
code portability concept doesn't really apply since there are so
many other places where the literal name has to be searched for
and replaced. Also, using the literal value is also a tiny bit
faster than dereferencing the variables, and every little bit helps.
employ a more generic solution, and use it in the individual rc.d scripts
that also have an $rc_quiet test:
1. Add check_startmsgs() to rc.subr.
2. In the rc.d scripts that use rc_quiet (and rc.subr) substitute
variations of [ -z "$rc_quiet" ] with check_startmsgs
3. In savecore add a trailing '.' to the end of the message to make it
more consistent with other scripts.
4. In newsyslog remove a : before the terminal '.' since we do not expect
there to be anything printed out in between to make it more consistent.
5. In the following scripts change "quotes" to 'quotes' where no variables
exist in the message: savecore pf newsyslog
6. In the following scripts substitute if/then/fi for the simpler (and
more consistent) check_startmsgs &&: faith stf
7. In the following scripts separate the "Starting foo:" from the terminal
'.' to make them more consistent: moused hostname pf
8. In nfsclient move the message to its own line to avoid a style bug
9. In pf rc_quiet does not apply to the _stop method, so remove the
test there.
10. In motd add 'quotes' around the terminal '.' for consistency
to allow them to do a "clean" shutdown.
I purposely avoided making changes to network-related stuff since the
system shutting down is pretty conclusive, and there may be complicated
dependencies on the network that I would rather not try to unravel.
I also skipped kerberos-related stuff for the reasons above, and
because I have no way to test it.
scripts, except for mdconfig* and jail. Such symbols are reserved
for the rc.subr internals. Most scripts can be fixed by just
declaring _foo symbols as local: few scripts actually need them to
be global.
Discussed with: dougb in freebsd-rc
on the system.
To start/stop/check on a specific device give the device name as
the second argument to the script:
# /etc/rc.d/moused start ums0
To use different rc.conf(5) knobs with different mice use the device
name as part of the knob. For example, if the mouse device is ums0, then:
moused_ums0_enable=yes
moused_ums0_flags="-z 4"
moused_ums0_port="/dev/ums0"
Starting rc.d/moused without the device argument will use the standard
moused_* flags. So, this commit should not disrupt or change current usage.
To preserve current behaviour with respect to usb mice, which appear
automatically when inserted, there is a new knob, moused_nondefault_enable,
which will treat any devices without rc.conf knobs as enabled.
To minimize knobs in /etc/rc.conf, the device file and pid file are
auto-computed, so that in the typical case for a usb mouse you don't
need to add anything extra in /etc/rc.conf to get it working.
Additionally, this updates /etc/usbd.conf to use the rc.d/moused script so
people don't have to modify it to configure their usb mouse anymore.
MFC after: 1 month
in keeping the scripts under rc.d in sync with us. So, begin removal
of NetBSD specific stuff (which made our scripts more complicated
than necessary), starting with the NetBSD KEYWORD.
while. This is only the script pieces, the glue for the build comes next.
