[PATCH v2 3/6] log: Print systemd journal API failure cause

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Also in case of falling back to stderr, do not forget printing
the original log message.

Notes:
       v2 changelog:

       - More correct log message
       - Print original failed log message after "Error writing
         logs to journal..", not before
       - In case of stderr transport, use pa_strempty() while
         printing the backtrace

       Moreover:

       - There's a bug in log.c: in case of journal failure the
         logging backend is not _permantently_ reset to syslog
         or stderr. Rather, the redirection happens only once.
         That's the topic of another patch

       - Here in my machine there's a bug either in PA or systemd
         itself where the sd journal log message "Detected that
         we are run from the build tree, fixing search path."
         __always__ fails. This only happens for that single
         message (!) That will also be the topic of another patch.
