Subject: [Buildroot] sysklogd 1.6: messages from klogd are logged to user facility
Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2020 19:55:50 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <01bd01d66b51$a7eba690$f7c2f3b0$@ipcomm.de> (raw)

Dear Buildroot Team,

there is an issue with sysklogd 1.6 (buildroot 2020.02.3).

The package includes its own implementation of openlog/syslog/vsyslog in
src/syslog.c to be able to log kernel messages to the kern facility.
The included syslog/vsyslog functions are not the ones getting executed,
thus kernel messages are marked with the user facility when they arrive in
syslogd.
I guess there was a change in the Makefile or glibc 2.22-2.29 which
results in taking precedence for these functions compared to sysklogd
1.5.1 (buildroot 2016.08).

Can you suggest a workaround/patch for this or are there plans to move to
a newer version of sysklogd?
Or should we just switch to rsyslog/syslog-ng?

Thanks & best regards
Andreas Hilse
