--- Comment #4 from P Kern <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Fernando Apesteguía from comment #3) That's correct. The relevant lines in syslog.c are ... /* * Provide the process ID regardless of whether LOG_PID has been * specified, as it provides valuable information. Many * applications tend not to use this, even though they should. */ (void)fprintf(fp, "%d ", getpid()); ... Previous to this, LOG_PID was optional. The man page only states that LOG_PID is now enabled by default for FreeBSD. Since LOG_PID used to be optional, some (like me) might reasonably expect that it would still be possible to disable LOG_PID. The above patch is meant to adjust the syslog(3) man page to make it clear that for FreeBSD, LOG_PID is now permanent, that it is no longer optional. Does that help? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-doc To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
