rsyslog replaces busybox syslogd/klogd (VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_base-utils-syslog,
trimmed PACKAGECONFIG) and becomes the only log writer: the appended
/etc/rsyslog.conf sets the inputs and the ff_line format and includes
the per-logger rules that `forgectrl --render-syslog` renders from the
machine settings at boot. forgefirm-logrotate becomes forgefirm-logging:
render before rsyslog starts (S19), sweep the pre-syslog log files into
/data/forgefirm/legacy-logs once, and rotate the tree at boot and hourly
by rename + HUP instead of copytruncate. Pins bumped to the pushed
forgectrl (syslog emitter, Logs tab, export), grblHAL-glowforge (syslog
emitter) and python3-gfhardware apps (syslog handlers, capture dir);
the CI harnesses set FFLOG_STDERR=1 so failure diagnostics keep the
controller's log lines. BRINGUP carries the bench validation checklist
(Next work item 14); this is an image change and rides the next flash.
- LIGHTBURN.md: mandatory "Before you cut" safety section; the
walkthrough now reflects the firing machine (dry runs need the
layer output off or M5; live first-cut instructions); the homing
entry documents homing_mode and the gfcloud method; the machine
address is a placeholder.
- README.md: condensed safety section linking the full text and the
regulatory notes.
- INSTALL.md: "Regulatory and legal" section ahead of the install
steps; routine updates route through the panel updater rather than
the installer.
- BRINGUP.md: the release signing key is described as held offline
(no on-disk path); bench address and credential notes removed;
Next-work item 7 corrected (the installer embeds the production
release key); status entry for audit remediation Phases 0-1; the
GATE A kernel drills join the pending image-flash checklist.
- bench scripts: the target host comes from GF_HOST (or argv) instead
of a hardcoded address.
- laser_stream_test.py: per-session controller runs with a hermetic
cooling-verdict publisher; new assertions that every stream
terminates with FIRE clear (including M3 held to stream end) and
that no FIRE bit rides a zero-step gap; a cycle-churn session
exercises the stop/start seams.
Audit findings D-1, D-2, D-3, D-5, D-10, D-12, B-10, and the harness
half of D-4/G-1.
BRINGUP item 2: grbl-mode laser software implemented + bench-verified
without fire (record in the gate list); first light pending.
LIGHTBURN.md: arming/button-press operation, S-max 1000, fire gates.
scripts/bench/laser_stream_test.py: host-side stream-dump contract
verification against the null-sink build.
