Please don't hesitate to give your valuable > feedback! Hmm, maybe we could add the output of "pactl log" to bugs reported against the PulseAudio package in Ubuntu? That way maybe we don't have to ask for PulseAudio logs all the time...so yes, then it could be helpful! I have a few questions: 1) How will the existing log targets (log to file/syslog/stderr etc) work in this scenario? Are there any changes or is this two entirely separate logging systems? 2) Somewhat related to question 1, what if the following happens: * thread A writes to the debug log "Sending message to thread B" * thread A sends the message to thread B * thread B logs a warning message "Invalid message received" * thread B crashes PulseAudio with sigsegv How can we ensure that both messages from thread A and thread B can be retreived after the crash? Is there a risk PulseAudio will not write both messages to disk before it crashes? 3) How long is the per-thread buffer by default (and is that in messages or characters)? Would it make sense to have this limit configurable (in what ways)? -- David Henningsson, Canonical Ltd. https://launchpad.net/~diwic
