Hello, In commit eea331abd7159432d8f45f978b2fbac19330ce48 I added an option to use ppid instead of pid in logger message. That change worked only when logging remotely, because the libc syslog(3) call does not support ppid printing. For a moment I thought it might be possible to change libc to have such feature, before realizing there are more than one libc implementation and making all of them work is hopeless. So I decided to avoid the syslog(3) all together, and make syslog_local() to be as close copy of glibc syslog(3) format as possible with support for ppid printing. Rest of the changes in this series are not technically that interesting, and only remaining thing worth to mention is a small write out, requested by Karel, about logger changes. http://www.iki.fi/kerolasa/logger.html The following changes since commit cd8414f7a13aca0b3ea150b473b83f00819b312f: cfdisk: move curs_set(1) to ui_end() (2014-08-06 15:39:27 +0200) are available in the git repository at: git://github.com/kerolasa/lelux-utiliteetit.git logger for you to fetch changes up to f0757ac355b42baab1e477345690260db651e693: docs: mentintion default udp and tcp ports logger is using (2014-08-09 09:13:25 +0100) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Sami Kerola (5): logger: allow use of --id=ppid when logging locally logger: remove openlog(3) options logger: optimize string initializations logger: set function arguments read-only when possible docs: mentintion default udp and tcp ports logger is using misc-utils/logger.1 | 7 +++++ misc-utils/logger.c | 84 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------------------- 2 files changed, 60 insertions(+), 31 deletions(-) -- 2.0.4 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe util-linux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
