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.
- platform_drills.py (on the board, forgectrl stopped): dead-man trip
readback, rmmod/modprobe with concurrent attr reads, decay/microstep
readback, LED sequence.
- live_fire_drills.py: ircut (S/F selectable characterization job),
expstop (armed job + POST /controller/stop, controller left stopped),
ctrlstart (separate, operator-approved resume); the token header is sent
in exact case.
- laser_lifecycle_test.py: sigterm-mid-job - SIGTERM during an armed job
must stop it, relock the latch and exit promptly.
Four sessions against the reported messages: arm once per job with
M5/M3 persistence and the M2 close (grace pushed beyond the horizon so
only the program-end path can disarm); a displaced sender must re-arm;
the disarm grace counts down in Hold; a blocking cooling verdict
refuses the arm. Test-the-test proven: a build with the job-based
window reverted fails at the first discriminating assertion. Wired
into the controller repo CI alongside the emission harness.
