Optionally re-introduce bb_info_msg()
Between Busybox 1.24.2 and 1.25.0 the bb_info_msg() function was
eliminated and calls to it changed to be bb_error_msg(). The downside of
this is that daemons now log all messages to syslog at the LOG_ERR level
which makes it hard to filter errors from informational messages.
This change optionally re-introduces bb_info_msg(), controlled by a new
option FEATURE_SYSLOG_INFO, restores all the calls to bb_info_msg() that
were removed (only in applets that set logmode to LOGMODE_SYSLOG or
LOGMODE_BOTH), and also changes informational messages in ifplugd and
ntpd.
The code size change of this is as follows (using 'defconfig' on x86_64
with gcc 7.3.0-27ubuntu1~18.04)
function old new delta
bb_info_msg - 182 +182
bb_vinfo_msg - 27 +27
static.log7 194 198 +4
log8 190 191 +1
log5 190 191 +1
crondlog 45 - -45
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(add/remove: 2/1 grow/shrink: 3/0 up/down: 215/-45) Total: 170 bytes
If you don't care about everything being logged at LOG_ERR level
then when FEATURE_SYSLOG_INFO is disabled Busybox actually gets smaller:
function old new delta
static.log7 194 200 +6
log8 190 193 +3
log5 190 193 +3
syslog_level 1 - -1
bb_verror_msg 583 581 -2
crondlog 45 - -45
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
