kcfd(1M) System Administration Commands kcfd(1M)NAME
kcfd - kernel-level cryptographic framework daemon
SYNOPSIS
kcfd
DESCRIPTION
The kcfd daemon helps in managing CPU usage by cryptographic operations performed in software by kernel threads. The system utilization
associated with these threads is charged to the kcfd process. It also does module verification for kernel cryptographic modules.
Only a privileged user can run this daemon.
The kcfd daemon is automatically invoked in run level 1, after /usr is mounted. A previously invoked kcfd daemon that is still running must
be stopped before invoking another kcfd command.
Manually starting and restarting kcfd is not recommended. If it is necessary to do so, use the cryptoadm(1M) start and stop subcommands.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0
Daemon started successfully.
> 1
Daemon failed to start.

I have an investigation job at hand where I have to know when was the FIRST time the daemon was invoked.
Now, currently what I can see as the time since invoked was some where near the last reboot which is kind of obvious that the daemon stopped and recycled after reboot.
But I want to know the... (6 Replies)

I'm wondering if there's any way to monitor daemons in such a way that if a daemon stops running (e.g. crond, xinetd etc etc), it logs the time and date (and process id) of the stopped daemon ?
Does anyone know if that's even possible ? I'm trying to work out if it logs anywhere when a daemon... (1 Reply)
