From 798acf51b482387a2702bd4064d538d7b3bedaa3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rainer Gerhards Date: Fri, 4 Apr 2008 06:57:54 +0000 Subject: removed the 32 character size limit (from RFC3164) on the tag. This had bad effects on existing envrionments, as sysklogd didn't obey it either (probably another bug in RFC3164...). We now receive the full size, but will modify the outputs so that only 32 characters max are used by default. If you need large tags in the output, you need to provide custom templates. --- syslogd.c | 22 +++++++++------------- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) (limited to 'syslogd.c') diff --git a/syslogd.c b/syslogd.c index b5554e5f..99020a5f 100644 --- a/syslogd.c +++ b/syslogd.c @@ -422,8 +422,8 @@ static uchar template_SyslogProtocol23Format[] = "\"<%PRI%>1 %TIMESTAMP:::date-r static uchar template_TraditionalFileFormat[] = "\"%TIMESTAMP% %HOSTNAME% %syslogtag%%msg:::drop-last-lf%\n\""; static uchar template_FileFormat[] = "\"%TIMESTAMP:::date-rfc3339% %HOSTNAME% %syslogtag%%msg:::drop-last-lf%\n\""; static uchar template_WallFmt[] = "\"\r\n\7Message from syslogd@%HOSTNAME% at %timegenerated% ...\r\n %syslogtag%%msg%\n\r\""; -static uchar template_ForwardFormat[] = "\"<%PRI%>%TIMESTAMP:::date-rfc3339% %HOSTNAME% %syslogtag%%msg%\""; -static uchar template_TraditionalForwardFormat[] = "\"<%PRI%>%TIMESTAMP% %HOSTNAME% %syslogtag%%msg%\""; +static uchar template_ForwardFormat[] = "\"<%PRI%>%TIMESTAMP:::date-rfc3339% %HOSTNAME% %syslogtag:1:32%%msg%\""; +static uchar template_TraditionalForwardFormat[] = "\"<%PRI%>%TIMESTAMP% %HOSTNAME% %syslogtag:1:32%%msg%\""; static uchar template_StdUsrMsgFmt[] = "\" %syslogtag%%msg%\n\r\""; static uchar template_StdDBFmt[] = "\"insert into SystemEvents (Message, Facility, FromHost, Priority, DeviceReportedTime, ReceivedAt, InfoUnitID, SysLogTag) values ('%msg%', %syslogfacility%, '%HOSTNAME%', %syslogpriority%, '%timereported:::date-mysql%', '%timegenerated:::date-mysql%', %iut%, '%syslogtag%')\",SQL"; static uchar template_StdPgSQLFmt[] = "\"insert into SystemEvents (Message, Facility, FromHost, Priority, DeviceReportedTime, ReceivedAt, InfoUnitID, SysLogTag) values ('%msg%', %syslogfacility%, '%HOSTNAME%', %syslogpriority%, '%timereported:::date-pgsql%', '%timegenerated:::date-pgsql%', %iut%, '%syslogtag%')\",STDSQL"; @@ -1408,7 +1408,6 @@ static int parseLegacySyslogMsg(msg_t *pMsg, int flags) * machine that we received the message from and the tag will be empty.
