-config SYSLOGD
- bool "syslogd"
- default y
- help
- The syslogd utility is used to record logs of all the
- significant events that occur on a system. Every
- message that is logged records the date and time of the
- event, and will generally also record the name of the
- application that generated the message. When used in
- conjunction with klogd, messages from the Linux kernel
- can also be recorded. This is terribly useful,
- especially for finding what happened when something goes
- wrong. And something almost always will go wrong if
- you wait long enough....
-
-config FEATURE_ROTATE_LOGFILE
- bool "Rotate message files"
- default y
- depends on SYSLOGD
- help
- This enables syslogd to rotate the message files
- on his own. No need to use an external rotatescript.
-
-config FEATURE_REMOTE_LOG
- bool "Remote Log support"
- default y
- depends on SYSLOGD
- help
- When you enable this feature, the syslogd utility can
- be used to send system log messages to another system
- connected via a network. This allows the remote
- machine to log all the system messages, which can be
- terribly useful for reducing the number of serial
- cables you use. It can also be a very good security
- measure to prevent system logs from being tampered with
- by an intruder.
-
-config FEATURE_SYSLOGD_DUP
- bool "Support -D (drop dups) option"
- default y
- depends on SYSLOGD
- help
- Option -D instructs syslogd to drop consecutive messages
- which are totally the same.
-
-config FEATURE_SYSLOGD_CFG
- bool "Support syslog.conf"
- default y
- depends on SYSLOGD
- help
- Supports restricted syslogd config. See docs/syslog.conf.txt
-
-config FEATURE_SYSLOGD_READ_BUFFER_SIZE
- int "Read buffer size in bytes"
- default 256
- range 256 20000
- depends on SYSLOGD
- help
- This option sets the size of the syslog read buffer.
- Actual memory usage increases around five times the
- change done here.
-
-config FEATURE_IPC_SYSLOG
- bool "Circular Buffer support"
- default y
- depends on SYSLOGD
- help
- When you enable this feature, the syslogd utility will
- use a circular buffer to record system log messages.
- When the buffer is filled it will continue to overwrite
- the oldest messages. This can be very useful for
- systems with little or no permanent storage, since
- otherwise system logs can eventually fill up your
- entire filesystem, which may cause your system to
- break badly.
-
-config FEATURE_IPC_SYSLOG_BUFFER_SIZE
- int "Circular buffer size in Kbytes (minimum 4KB)"
- default 16
- range 4 2147483647
- depends on FEATURE_IPC_SYSLOG
- help
- This option sets the size of the circular buffer
- used to record system log messages.
-
-config LOGREAD
- bool "logread"
- default y
- depends on FEATURE_IPC_SYSLOG
- help
- If you enabled Circular Buffer support, you almost
- certainly want to enable this feature as well. This
- utility will allow you to read the messages that are
- stored in the syslogd circular buffer.
-
-config FEATURE_LOGREAD_REDUCED_LOCKING
- bool "Double buffering"
- default y
- depends on LOGREAD
- help
- 'logread' ouput to slow serial terminals can have
- side effects on syslog because of the semaphore.
- This option make logread to double buffer copy
- from circular buffer, minimizing semaphore
- contention at some minor memory expense.
-
-config FEATURE_KMSG_SYSLOG
- bool "Linux kernel printk buffer support"
- default y
- depends on SYSLOGD
- select PLATFORM_LINUX
- help
- When you enable this feature, the syslogd utility will
- write system log message to the Linux kernel's printk buffer.
- This can be used as a smaller alternative to the syslogd IPC
- support, as klogd and logread aren't needed.
-
- NOTICE: Syslog facilities in log entries needs kernel 3.5+.
-
-config KLOGD
- bool "klogd"
- default y
- help
- klogd is a utility which intercepts and logs all
- messages from the Linux kernel and sends the messages
- out to the 'syslogd' utility so they can be logged. If
- you wish to record the messages produced by the kernel,
- you should enable this option.
-
-comment "klogd should not be used together with syslog to kernel printk buffer"
- depends on KLOGD && FEATURE_KMSG_SYSLOG
-
-config FEATURE_KLOGD_KLOGCTL
- bool "Use the klogctl() interface"
- default y
- depends on KLOGD
- select PLATFORM_LINUX
- help
- The klogd applet supports two interfaces for reading
- kernel messages. Linux provides the klogctl() interface
- which allows reading messages from the kernel ring buffer
- independently from the file system.
-
- If you answer 'N' here, klogd will use the more portable
- approach of reading them from /proc or a device node.
- However, this method requires the file to be available.
-
- If in doubt, say 'Y'.
-
-config LOGGER
- bool "logger"
- default y
- select FEATURE_SYSLOG
- help
- The logger utility allows you to send arbitrary text
- messages to the system log (i.e. the 'syslogd' utility) so
- they can be logged. This is generally used to help locate
- problems that occur within programs and scripts.
