From 253c4e787a799a3e1f92957ed791b5222f8d2f64 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Byrne Date: Fri, 12 Apr 2019 17:01:51 +0000 Subject: 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 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (add/remove: 0/2 grow/shrink: 3/1 up/down: 12/-48) Total: -36 bytes Signed-off-by: James Byrne Signed-off-by: Denys Vlasenko --- Config.in | 9 +++++++++ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+) (limited to 'Config.in') diff --git a/Config.in b/Config.in index 1a44c5b6d..1a726f043 100644 --- a/Config.in +++ b/Config.in @@ -339,6 +339,15 @@ config FEATURE_CLEAN_UP Don't enable this unless you have a really good reason to clean things up manually. +config FEATURE_SYSLOG_INFO + bool "Support LOG_INFO level syslog messages" + default y + depends on FEATURE_SYSLOG + help + Applets which send their output to syslog use either LOG_INFO or + LOG_ERR log levels, but by disabling this option all messages will + be logged at the LOG_ERR level, saving just under 200 bytes. + # These are auto-selected by other options config FEATURE_SYSLOG -- cgit v1.2.3
