[PATCH] Variable for vcl_dir in startup scripts

Federico,

I've initially set vcl_dir in DAEMON_OPTS in varnish.params with 4.0.2, but it's not included in the syntax check added in 4.0.3, making my config unable to start without changing varnish.service.

I'm not aware of the reason behind this syntax check (won't a syntax error make startup fail anyway ?) but I assumed you had a good reason not to include DAEMON_OPTS.

As it's better to change varnish.params rather than varnish.service, my proposal was to add a way to include parameters needed to make the config work in the syntax check, without including the full DAEMON_OPTS.

If you finally think DAEMON_OPTS can be included in the syntax check, then I can send a really smaller patch.

Hi,

My first inclination is to ensure that the ExecStartPre line uses the same parameters as ExecStart.

So my questions is how do you set vcl_dir? Do you edit varnish.service or varnish.params?

Wouldn't adding DAEMON_OPTS to ExecStartPre (and configtest) do it?

Here is another patch proposal to make syntax check handle parameters required to compile the VCL (vcl_dir, etc.) without creating a startup variable for each parameter.

It just adds a COMPILE_OPTS that is merged in DAEMON_OPTS to start Varnish but is used alone in the syntax check.
