syslog() is

[bhattaraiprayogdb-eng]

Umm hi
i was using turnstile and i saw it sends a message to tty which i dont want so,
syslog() is "uncatchable" by dinit or runit if no syslog daemon is running, causing "log leakage" onto the TTY.
when i saw the source code i saw this

turnstile/src/turnstiled.cc

Line 1321 in e3413da

syslog(LOG_INFO, "Initializing turnstiled...");

which was causing this
i would be really thankful if u remove this line or

if (!quiet) {
syslog(LOG_INFO, "Initializing turnstiled...");
}

so that it would atleast be quiet

Below is not a solution to the current issue; however, it could be useful for the other people who have a syslog daemon but still getting the same tty logs.

I was running turnstiled without checking existence of /dev/log, which is created by a syslog daemon. Since turnstiled ran before /dev/log created, syslog() call fell back to the tty1.

I'm using below runit script now. Everything works well.

#!/bin/sh

exec >/dev/null 2>&1

n=0
while [ ! -S /dev/log ] && [ "$n" -lt 100 ]; do
    n=$((n + 1))
    sleep 0.1
done

exec turnstiled
