RevisionDateAuthorComments
 1.8  14-Sep-2009  apb Check whether a core dump exists before trying to save it. This should
prevent /etc/rc from thinking that /etc/rc.d/savecore failed.
 1.7  13-Aug-2004  mycroft Add an _rc_subr_loaded variable, set to ":" by rc.subr. Scripts can use this
for a speedup by doing:
$_rc_subr_loaded . /etc/rc.subr
 1.6  15-Jul-2004  atatat Make the directory into which crash dumps are saved into something
that can be controlled via rc.conf. The default is, of course,
/var/crash.
 1.5  22-Mar-2002  thorpej branches: 1.5.4;
Correct the "direction" of the barrier dependencies (DAEMON, LOGIN,
NETWORKING, and SERVERS) by specifying that certain things should
come BEFORE a given barrier, rather than having the barrier REQUIRE
a service. This allows scripts to be removed without having to
edit the barrier dependencies.

As discussed on tech-userlevel, and approved by Luke.
 1.4  22-Mar-2002  lukem - Rename a bunch of "internal" run_rc_command() variables and officially
make them "externally" available:
Previous Current Purpose
-------- ------- -------
_arg rc_arg Argument to command, after fast/force
processing performed (and prefix
removed)

_flags rc_flags Flags to start the default command
with. Defaults to ${name}_flags,
unless overridden by $flags from the
environment. This variable may be
changed by the precmd method.

_pid rc_pid PID of command (if appropriate).

_rc_run_fast rc_fast Not empty is "fast" was provided.

_rc_run_force rc_force Not empty is "force" was provided.

- Use rc_flags instead of _flags or ${name}_flags in various rc.d scripts,
so that $flags from the environment overrides ${name}_flags from rc.conf(5).
Fixes [bin/15800].
 1.3  19-Sep-2000  lukem - only perform the checkyesno on the variable named in $rcvar (rather than
implicitly using $name if $rcvar isn't set), and always perform this check,
even when using start_cmd (et al).
this check is performed before the pidcmd
is run, speeding up scripts that weren't going to be run anyway.
this should speed up booting slow systems.

- take advantage of the above and remove
start_precmd="checkyesno foo"
in scripts that use start_cmd.

- explicitly set rcvar=foo in the rc.d/foo scripts which have an equivalent
rc.conf entry

- fix `rcvar' and `restart' when $rcvar isn't set.
these above changes fix PR [bin/11027].

- when doing `force*', ignore the return value of *_precmd.
this fixes PR [bin/10781].

- rename what sysdb provides from `databases' to `sysdb', to reflect
the name of the script.

- improve the comments in rc.subr
 1.2  13-May-2000  lukem branches: 1.2.4;
Use load_rc_config() (from rc.subr) instead of sourcing /etc/rc.conf.
This allows us or a user to change the configuration file method in
one place - rc.subr - without having to edit all of the rc.d/* files.
 1.1  10-Mar-2000  lukem branches: 1.1.1;
Initial revision
 1.1.1.1  10-Mar-2000  lukem rc.d scripts derived from /etc/rc
 1.2.4.1  02-Oct-2000  lukem pull up rev 1.3 (approved by thorpej):
- always use $rcvar to determine the name of the var to checkyesno
- fix force*
 1.5.4.1  15-Jul-2004  he Pull up revision 1.6 (requested by atatat in ticket #660:
Make the directory into which crash dumps are saved into
something that can be controlled via rc.conf. The default
is, of course, /var/crash.
