syslogd preopen console

Hi, syslogd has special code for reporting errors before it has been initialized. Then it tries to log to console. For every message it reopens the console with file descriptor passing from the privsep parent. Of course that does not work when we have reached our file descriptor limit. I

Revisit tcpdump(8) pledge(2) promises

OpenBSD's tcpdump(8) is separated into two processes: The packet parser that will chroot(2) if possible, drop to an unprivileged user, and then pledge(2) itself tightly as "stdio" before entering its main loop. And the priviledged "monitor" process, which opens and fdpasses bpf(4) and any

[Patch] directory.3 should describe return value of readdir_r()

directory.3 (has no "RETURN VALUES" section and) fails to describe the return value of readdir_r(). The diff below adds a sentence about the return value. It also converts "return (X)" to "return X" in the sample code. Ross Index: directory.3

slaacd(8), mention that it's a client, hint at rtadvd

A user knowing that they want to provide services for slaac on a network might do 'man -k slaac' and from the title and at least a quick read of the manual it's not clear that this is the client side. I think it would be helpful for slaacd(8) to identify itself as a client and at least hint that

[patch] setsid.2 inconsistency

Hello tech@, When reading up on setsid I found ERRORS section confusing. It indicates that EPERM may occur if the process group ID of a process other than the calling process matches the process ID of the calling process. To me this appears to be in contradiction with the fork manpage, which

softraid: vnode leaks?

Hi, I think softraid is leaking vnodes. When taking a device offline with bioctl -O /dev/sd0a sd2, then wiping the disk with dd (including the disklabel), I cannot change sd0's disklabel as it would say "open part- ition would change/shrink". This is because on assembly (and rebuild) the device
