Change Details

There's an enhancement to syslogd(8). Added -M option that limit maximum length of forwarded message. Initially syslogd had forwarded 1024-bytes messages (RFC 3164). But after [[ https://reviews.freebsd.org/D15011 | D15011 ]] forwarded messages has been truncated to 480 octets (for IPv4). The patch allows to truncate messages by -M option (default 1024). MAXLINE constant has been increased up to 8192 octets, corresponded to [[ https://reviews.freebsd.org/D27205 | D27205 ]].

Replaced bootfile[] size for MAXPATHLEN used in getbootfile(3) as a returned value. Using (MAXLINE+1) as a size for bootfile[] is excessive.
