periodic: switch lockf to silent operation. This fixes duplicate mails (one from cron, one from periodic) when a periodic run is not finished bfore the next one starts. The man page states that the intended use case is cron, and the error handling of the lockf invocation handles this case explicitely, as such no error message for the "interactive" use was considered.

periodic: fix anticongestion for scripts run after security Revision 316342, which introduced the anticongestion feature, failed to consider that the periodic scripts are executed by a recursive invocation of periodic. The recursive invocation wrongly cleaned up a temporary file that should've been cleaned up only by the original invocation. The result is that if the first script that requests an anticongestion sleep runs after the security scripts, the sleep won't happen. Fix this bug by delaying cleanup until the end of the original invocation. PR: 236564 Submitted by: Yasuhiro KIMURA <yasu@utahime.org> Reviewed by: imp MFC after: 1 month

Consolidate random sleeps in periodic scripts Multiple periodic scripts sleep for a random amount of time in order to mitigate the thundering herd problem. This is bad, because the sum of multiple uniformly distributed random variables approaches a normal distribution, so the problem isn't mitigated as effectively as it would be with a single sleep. This change creates a single configurable anticongestion sleep. periodic will only sleep if at least one script requires it, and it will never sleep more than once per invocation. It also won't sleep if periodic was run interactively, fixing an unrelated longstanding bug.

Better document security_show_{success,info,badconfig} in /etc/periodic.conf periodic(8) already handles the security_show_{success,info,badconfig} variables correctly. However, those variables aren't explicitly set in /etc/defaults/periodic.conf or anywhere else, which suggests to the user that they shouldn't be used. etc/defaults/periodic.conf Explicitly set defaults for security_show_{success,info,badconfig} usr.sbin/periodic/periodic.sh Update usage string usr.sbin/periodic/periodic.8 Minor man page updates One thing I'm _not_ doing is recommending setting security_output to /var/log/security.log or adding that file to /etc/newsyslog.conf, because periodic(8) would create it with default permissions, usually 644, and that's probably a bad idea.

Include the calling context in the mail subject, if any. More concretely, periodic security scripts defaults to being called from daily ones -- daily context -- so the mail subject will now be "${HOST} daily security run output" instead of "{HOST} security run output". If you switch the period of some security checks to weekly, you will receive another email "${HOST} weekly security run output".

Prevent periodic scripts that run longer than the expected period from starting up before the previous script finishes. This prevents an infinite number of them from piling up and slowing a system down. Since all the refactoring to make this happen required churning the indenting of most of this file, make the indentation more consistent. Reviewed by: simon MFC after: 1 week

Create the altix project branch. The altix project will add support for the SGI Altix 350 to FreeBSD/ia64. The hardware used for porting is a two-module system, consisting of a base compute module and a CPU expansion module. SGI's NUMAFlex architecture can be an excellent platform to test CPU affinity and NUMA-aware features in FreeBSD.

Another overhaul of the periodic stuff. All periodic sub-scripts <larf> now have their return codes interpreted by periodic(8). Output may be masked based on variable values in periodic.conf. It's also now possible to email periodic output to arbitrary addresses, or to send it to a log file, examples of which can be found in newsyslog.conf. The upshot of it all should be no discernable changes to the default behaviour of periodic(8). PR: 21250
