Re: [PATCH] Abort powerd when no cpufreq(4) support is found

2012-04-09 Thread Nate Lawson
The message is fine, but I think an error code of 0 is wrong. Powerd didn't 
start, whereas 0 means the daemon launched successfully.

 Hi,
 
 I'd like to check-in this patch so that powerd aborts gracefully when
 there's no cpufreq(4) support for the CPU in which it is running.
 
 Does this look alright?

In that case, may I suggest that we return one of the error codes
recommended by sysexists(3)?  EX_UNAVAILABLE seems close enough to the
reason we're aborting.

 Fine by me. The rc framework or user should be the one to interpret the 
 error code and realize that it's ok that it's not running (not supported).
 
 Committed then, thanks for reviewing.

Have you verified how rc.d handles this new error? If changes are
necessary a friendly message to freebsd-rc@ would be in order
