Description

rc: dmesg: Allow umask to be configurable

Allow umask to be configurable.

Being able to set the umask via an rc variable is useful when setting:

security.bsd.unprivileged_read_msgbuf=0

As it allows a user to configure:

dmesg_umask="066"

Without modifying the rc script, and preventing the contents of the
$dmesg_file (/var/run/dmesg.boot) from being publicly readable.
