This change does not log the file name and line numbers, but the function name. Together with the commit information that is logged in conjunction with a crash and that MaxScale can tell, when invoked, that is enough to be able to pinpoint the location where a logging was made. Furthermore, that is a lot less intrusive and less confusing for an end-user than filename + line. This is just a temporary workaround; the logging mechanism needs to get an overhaul: - Separate severity and logging target. - Take syslog severities into use. - Simplify what needs to be done by developer. - etc.
MaxScale by MariaDB Corporation
The MariaDB Corporation MaxScale is an intelligent proxy that allows forwarding of database statements to one or more database servers using complex rules, a semantic understanding of the database statements and the roles of the various servers within the backend cluster of databases.
MaxScale is designed to provide load balancing and high availability functionality transparently to the applications. In addition it provides a highly scalable and flexible architecture, with plugin components to support different protocols and routing decisions.
MaxScale is implemented in C and makes extensive use of the asynchronous I/O capabilities of the Linux operating system. The epoll system is used to provide the event driven framework for the input and output via sockets.
The protocols are implemented as external shared object modules which can be loaded at runtime. These modules support a fixed interface, communicating the entries points via a structure consisting of a set of function pointers. This structure is called the "module object".
The code that routes the queries to the database servers is also loaded as external shared objects and are referred to as routing modules.
