This was not honored by the new ompipe module, because it is a local
file directive (it was applied to pipes as a side-effect of using the
same module for pipes and files...). I now made this a global, so that
semantics are the same as previously. Not really nice, but probably
the best thing to do in the current situation (everything else would
involve much more overhead --- leave that for the new config system).
- bugfix: subtle (and usually irrelevant) issue in timout processing
timeout could be one second too early if nanoseconds wrapped
- set a more sensible timeout for shutdow, now 1.5 seconds to complete
processing (this also removes those cases where the shutdown message
was not written because the termination happened before it)
Unfortunatley, I do not have the full list of contributors
available. The patch set was compiled by Ben Taylor, and I made
some further changes to adopt it to the news rsyslog branch. Others
provided much of the base work, but I can not find the names of the
original authors. If you happen to be one of them, please let me
know so that I can give proper credits.
- added the ability to specify an error log function for the
runtime
- removed dependency of core runtime on dirty.h
Note that it is "better" modularity, not perfect. There is still
work to do, but I think we can for the time being proceed with
other things.
there are still some files left which could go into the
runtime, but I think we will delete most of them once we
are done with the full modularization.
