Changelog:
- Issue #67: restore support for reading kernel logs from '/proc/kmsg',
regression introduced in v2.4.0, issue #48.
- Issue #37: improved accuracy of the MARK timer, optional, default: 20
minutes. Generates log messages to files, which have had no activity
within the MARK interval. Was off by up to 'interval / 2' minutes.
It may now be off by up to '1 / 2' minutes, i.e.g, 30 seconds.
- Issue #64: sub-second faking of kernel timestamps was always zero

Changes
=======
- Issue #59: initial port to NuttX, contributed by Xiaomi
- Issue #61: add support for '-c' and '-cc' to disable log compression.
A single '-c' disables compression for pipes, another '-c' (or '-cc')
disables compression for all other log targets
- The default 'syslog.conf' now logs debug messages again (disabled in
v2.4.0) due to problems (confusion) reported in the field
- Dropped not recommended 'KillMode=process' from systemd unit file
Fixes
========
- Issue #60: document how to set side-wide permissions on log files
- Issue #62: early log messages lost when running under systemd, found
by Wind River Systems, including initial fix

Changes:
Add support for logger -k, early log to /dev/kmsg. Useful when
logging from early system startup scripts before syslogd has started
Support for extracting non-kernel log messages from /dev/kmsg
Ignore EINVAL from kernel, caused warning message at first startup
Use journald socket on systemd systems, not /dev/log
Issue #38: add support for syslogd -C file to use file for caching
the last seen kernel sequence number, default: /run/syslogd.cache.
Note: syslogd relies on the location of this file to be wiped at
system boot. The default, /run, is a RAM disk on modern systems
Fixes
Issue #34: regression in v2.2.3, causing loss of syslogd log messages
like syslogd v2.2.3: restart.
Issue #35: man pages lists -v as verbose mode, is actually version
Issue #36: retry DNS lookup of remote syslog servers with res_init()
to ensure name resolution at bootup when a remote DNS may temporarily
be unreachable. Retry at most every five seconds, to prevent syslogd
from monopolizing the CPU when emptying the kernel ring buffer
Issue #39: update tests to use -P fn and -C fn
Issue #40: improve documentation for syslogd.cache file requirements
Issue #41: add missing documentation for -H option
Issue #42: add option (-K) to always trust kernel timestamp. By
default syslogd only trusts the kernel timestamp for the initial
emptying of the kernel ring buffer
Issue #43: avoid asserting (exiting) on and around Jan 19, 2038, when
the UNIX epoch wraps around on 32-bit time_t systems
libsyslog: handle EOVERFLOW from gettimeofday() on Jan 19, 2038
Avoid NULL pointers to internal logit() function, only triggered
when in debug mode
Replace \m with \n (missing newline) in logger usage text

The default in sysklogd 2.x is to open listening network sockets,
unlike sysklogd 1.5 where the default was the opposite.
This is contrary to a "secure by default" design, so set up the
init script to pass the -ss option to prevent syslogd from opening
any network sockets. It can be overridden in /etc/default/syslogd.

don't apply to the old version either, which means no one is using that hw target
anymore.
Remove custom systemd configs (provided by upstream), and custom
syslog config (also provided by upstream but not installed by default).

System.map file during boot (that is packaged into kernel-dev

In testing we're seeing sysklogd fail to restart klogd since the original
process hasn't stopped before the new one is started. This means a restart
can result in no process running which is clearly not desireable.
Add extra code to ensure this works correctly. Busybox start-stop-daemon
seems particularly open to this kind of issue, the dpkg version maybe
less so if timeout options are used (which we don't use).

Other recipes, such as meta-networking inetutils may also provide a man page
for syslogd.8. Use the alternatives mechanism to select the man page to
display.
This is a partial revert of commit: 988aad01b20c18a8850db0ad6dc547525d94116c
The syslogd tool itself is provided by both recipes in their respective runtime
packages. In the inet case, it is inetutils-syslogd, which has an appropriate
RCONFLICTS with the syslogd version. Only one or the other will be installed.
This is the conflict resolution the original commit of
"988aad01b20c18a8850db0ad6dc547525d94116c" was referring to.
HOWEVER, both syslogd and inetutils each only have a singular 'doc' package.
(As do most packages it seems.) Since this is the case, if both syslogd and
inetutils (not syslogd part) is requested for a configuration -- AND ---
doc-pkgs are configured in, you get an error of conflicting files.
Now does the documentation match whichever package was installed, maybe not...
but this isn't a big deal as it turns out, since most syslogd share a common set
of arguments and those are the things a run-time user would query from the man
pages.
The only alternative is to start spliting up the docs into their relevant
subpackages, as we have the runtime items. But this then complicates the
doc-pkgs processing and related...

The patch tool will apply patches by default with "fuzz", which is where if the
hunk context isn't present but what is there is close enough, it will force the
patch in.
Whilst this is useful when there's just whitespace changes, when applied to
source it is possible for a patch applied with fuzz to produce broken code which
still compiles (see #10450). This is obviously bad.
We'd like to eventually have do_patch() rejecting any fuzz on these grounds. For
that to be realistic the existing patches with fuzz need to be rebased and
reviewed.

Using update-alternatives for managing init scripts has proved to be
problematic. And, sysklogd rconflicts with other syslog daemons so there
is no point in using update-alternatives from this perspective, either.

Set RCONFLICTS to disallow multiple syslog daemon providers to be installed
on the target, and remove codes that deal with such situation.
Also, set ALTERNATIVE_PRIORITY back to 100. It was set to '10' in case of
systemd because sysklogd didn't have systemd support. For now, if we disallow
multiple syslog daemons to be installed, and it stays '10', then if sysklogd
is installed on target, the /sbin/syslogd would link to /bin/busybox.nosuid,
causing sysklogd service files using busybox's utility.

It was noticed that syslogd and klogd were no longer running on system
startup, meaning no /var/log/messages etc.. It appears as though
sysklogd has never been updated to follow the expected logging
requirement for systemd as described here:
https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/syslog/
As such no service was started and no logging present. Using the above
guidelines we create two new service files syslogd.service and
klogd.service. We make use of tmpfiles.d in order to ensure the
xconsole device node exists and do other minor recipe cleanup to
ensure peaceful coexistence with sysvinit and systemd implementations.
The systemd documentation also asks that for a logger which is not
rsyslog that we also enable 'ForwardToSyslog=' in journald.conf, but
this is already the case so no action is required.
With this change in place syslogd and klogd are started at system
startup and the expected logs are available.
Unfortunately I was not able to find any work done on this upstream or
in other distros so this is my best effort at making this work.

The sysklogd package hasn't got systemd support yet. So in case of
a systemd based system, the commands and corresponding configuration
files should have a lower priority than that of the busybox's syslogd
and klogd utilities. These two utilities from busybox have internal
systemd support if CONFIG_FEATURE_SYSTEMD is enabled. And that config
item is enabled by default.

The sysklogd recipe had a cut-n-paste version of the
update-rc.d.bbclass code which didn't work, but this was hidden
because all images contain the busybox version which does. Building a
busybox-free image unmasked the issue and syslogd wouldn't start on
first boot.
The comments seem to be wrong/stale. AFAICT update-rc.d and
update-alternatives work fine with each other, though there is an
ordering constraint (alternatives must be specified last, so it
"wraps" update-rc.d). This version builds and works both with and
without busybox.

o klogd would not be stopped due to pidfile recycling, give klogd its own
