The log message was labeled as a warning instead of an error and finding out
the real reason why MaxScale didn't start when a filter wasn't found was difficult.
A buffer was allocated for strlen(event) characters leading to the
name always being truncated by one character. The use of a buffer was
unnecessary and was fixed by using the mon_get_event_name function directly.
When a filter module is not found or the instance creation fails, this is considered
a fatal error and MaxScale will not start. If a failure occurs when the configuration
is being reloaded, the service will not use filters and an error will be logged.
Added maxadmin command to flush all logs to disk. This will allow tests
to gather all logs without having to wait for the logs to be flushed by
the log flusher thread.
The error message did not provide any useful information and was most of the
time a false positive due to EPOLL_RDHUP events calling the hangup function
of the DCB.
The bundled PCRE2 library will be built as a separate target and configuring
CMake no longer builds it. Instead, it will only be built when it is out of date.
This requires all targets to declare that they depend on the pcre2 target in
order for it to be built.
Previously filter instances were created when the first session was made. This
caused filter configuration errors to be noticed only after MaxScale was successfully
started. Now filters are loaded and the instance is created when a service applies its filters.
LOGIF and skygw_write_log removed from server/core/*.c and
replaced with calls to MXS_(ERROR|WARNING|NOTICE|INFO|DEBUG).
This is a mechanism change, no updating of the actual message
has been performed.
Currently this causes a very small performance hit, since the
check whether the priority is enabled or not is performed in
the function that is called and not before the function is called.
Once all LOGIFs and skygw_write_logs have been replaced, the
behaviour will be altered back to what it was.
skygw_[enable|disable]_log has now been removed from the external
interface and priorities must instead be set using
mxs_log_set_priority_enabled(int priority, bool enabled). A bitmask
is already being updated, but internally and as used by the LOG_IF
macros, the actual enabling is still made using logfile ids.
The configuration entries have been replaced as follows:
log_messages -> log_notice
log_trace -> log_info
The old ones can be used, but cause a warning to be logged.
Similarily the maxadmin commands have been updated.
"[enable|disable] log ..." works as expected, but there will be
a message about it being deprecated. Instead there is now a
[enable|disable] log-priority err|warning|notice|info|debug
command that should be used instead.
