Bug 838743

** Original comment by nyewale **

1. Proposed title of this feature request
Enhancement to the Corosync logging for the CPG system

2. Who is the customer behind the request?
Account name: Goldman Sachs

TAM/SRM customer: Yes / Yes
Strategic Customer  : Yes


3. What is the nature and description of the request?
Description : 

Customer is interested in getting only the procjoin and procleave messages from the CPG Corosync subsystem.

root@833873v4 bin]# egrep -i "procjoin|procleave" /tmp/c.log
Nov 15 14:26:07 corosync [CPG   ] got procjoin message from cluster node 1744939200
Nov 15 14:26:32 corosync [CPG   ] got procleave message from cluster node 1744939200
Nov 15 14:26:39 corosync [CPG   ] got procjoin message from cluster node 1744939200
Nov 15 14:26:48 corosync [CPG   ] got procleave message from cluster node 1744939200

To get these messages in the log, We need to enable debug logging 

totem {
        version: 2
        secauth: off
        threads: 0
        window_size : 2000
        interface {
                ringnumber: 0
                bindnetaddr: 192.168.1.0
                mcastaddr: 239.255.1.3
                mcastport: 5500
        }
}

logging {
        timestamp: on
        to_logfile: yes
        logfile: /tmp/c.log
        logger_subsys {
                subsys: CPG
                debug: on
        }
}

amf {
        mode: disabled
}

But this produces a lot of other log messages from the CPG subsystem. Specifically every multicast request gets logged.

[root@833873v4 bin]# tail -10 /tmp/c.log
Nov 16 15:52:12 corosync [CPG   ] got mcast request on 0x19cac80
Nov 16 15:52:22 corosync [CPG   ] got mcast request on 0x19cac80
Nov 16 15:52:32 corosync [CPG   ] got mcast request on 0x19cac80
Nov 16 15:52:42 corosync [CPG   ] got mcast request on 0x19cac80
Nov 16 15:52:52 corosync [CPG   ] got mcast request on 0x19cac80
Nov 16 15:53:02 corosync [CPG   ] got mcast request on 0x19cac80
Nov 16 15:53:12 corosync [CPG   ] got mcast request on 0x19cac80
Nov 16 15:53:22 corosync [CPG   ] got mcast request on 0x19cac80
Nov 16 15:53:32 corosync [CPG   ] got mcast request on 0x19cac80
Nov 16 15:53:42 corosync [CPG   ] got mcast request on 0x19cac80

Given that procjoin and procleave are lifecycle log messages, customer wants these messages be logged in the CPG subsystem at a higher level than DEBUG 

This will let him get these log messages and at the same time not have his log filled with low level mcast log messages.


4. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)
This will let the customer get these log messages and at the same time not have log filled with low level mcast log messages.


5. How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional
requirements here)

Given that procjoin and procleave are lifecycle log messages, customer wants these messages be logged in the CPG subsystem at a higher level than DEBUG 

6. For each functional requirement listed in question 4, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully
implemented.
procjoin and procleave messages to be logged without enabling the debugging.

7. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat bugzilla?
Could not find one.

8. Does the customer have any specific timeline dependencies?
Will check with the customer.

9. Is the sales team involved in this request and do they have any additional input?
Sales team not involved yet. Please let me know if it is required so.

10. List any affected packages


11. Would the customer be able to assist in testing this functionality if
implemented?
Yes

Thank you for submitting this issue for consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux. This request will be considered in a future release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. We are currently looking to deliver this in 6.4

Created attachment 616559 [details]
Add support for debug level trace in config file

Because logsys uses 3-bits for log level encoded in rec, it's impossible to add trace log level in clean way. Instead of that, we are using
recid of TRACE1 for trace messages. So if trace is allowed in
configuration file, we change old condition to log only LOGSYS_RECID_LOG 
to log also LOGSYS_RECID_TRACE1.

Created attachment 616560 [details]
Move some totem and cpg messages to trace level

Messages which are flow messages, rather then lifecycle are now
logged in trace level.

"Unit" test

https://github.com/jfriesse/csts/commit/8873e2c98ae32d797d7ff56fe93514db237d67dd

with cman add:
	<logging debug="on" logfile_priority="debug" syslog_priority="debug">
		<logging_daemon debug="trace" logfile_priority="debug" name="corosync" subsys="CPG" syslog_priority="debug"/>
	</logging>
under cluster in cluster.conf.

Messages were appearing/not appearing as described in /var/log/cluster/corosync.log.

Marking as verified with corosync-1.4.1-12.el6.x86_64.
