Re: [syslog-ng] [PATCH] system(): Use follow-freq(1) on FreeBSD prior to 9.1

Thanks, just merge into 3.4 master. On Fri, 2012-11-09 at 14:24 +0100, Gergely Nagy wrote:

FreeBSD prior to 9.1 does not have a kqueue-pollable /dev/klog, so syslog-ng would fall back to using timers, except that follow-freq() is explicitly set to zero, also diabling timer-based polling. This has the effect of making syslog-ng not read from /dev/klog at all.

To work around the issue, on FreeBSD prior to 9.1, use follow-freq(1) for /dev/klog when using the system() source.
