From e30f00bca5f61e9693d59e763a3dce633d76f00b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Asselstine Date: Tue, 3 Jan 2017 12:01:58 -0500 Subject: sysklogd: do more to properly work with systemd 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.
