Redundant information, but incredibly useful when you want to figure
out what happened without a (still nonexistent) journal replay tool.
The redundancy could help making a journal replay tool more robust.
To enable, set econfig key keep_journal to at least 2. Output events
are *not* flushed to disk immediately.
Why upgrade? I'm not a lawyer, but here's my take on the differences
to version 2:
* Software patents: better protection against abuse of patents to
prevent users from exercising the rights under the GPL. I doubt
we'll get hit with a patent suit, but it's a good move just on
general principles.
* License compatibility: compatible with more free licenses, i.e. can
"steal" more free software for use in Empire. I don't expect to steal
much, but it's nice to have the option.
* Definition of "source code": modernization of some details for today's
networked world, to make it easier to distribute the software. Not
really relevant to us now, as we normally distribute full source code.
* Tivoization: this is about putting GPL-licensed software in hardware,
then make the hardware refuse to run modified software. "Neat" trick
to effectively deny its users their rights under the GPL. Abuse was
"pioneered" by TiVo (popular digital video recorders). GPLv3 forbids
it. Unlikely to become a problem for us.
* Internationalization: more careful wording, to harden the license
outside the US. The lawyers tell us it better be done that way.
* License violations: friendlier way to deal with license violations.
This has come out of past experience enforcing the GPL.
* Additional permissions: Probably not relevant to us.
Also include myself in the list of principal authors.
(journal_reopen): New.
(main): Use it. Fixes failure to obey !keep_journal.
(journal_open): Internal linkage, changed semantics and return value.
Callers changed.
(journal_close): One caller left, inline and remove.
(keep_journal): New econfig key.
(player_main): Log player login and logout.
(recvclient): Log player input.
(ef_open_srv, ef_close_srv): Log startup and shutdown.
(update_main): Log update.
Support the common SIGHUP log rotation idiom:
(empth_wait_for_shutdown, empth_wait_for_signal): Rename.
[EMPTH_LWP, EMPTH_POSIX] (empth_init, empth_wait_for_signal): Wait for
SIGHUP as well.
(main) [SIGHUP]: Reopen journal when empth_wait_for_signal() returns
SIGHUP.
