Subject: [PATCH 2/5] busybox-syslog.default: When systemd is enabled don't use circular buffer
Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2016 17:40:39 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1469659242-12350-3-git-send-email-anibal.limon@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1469659242-12350-1-git-send-email-anibal.limon@linux.intel.com>
Busybox syslog uses a shmmem circular buffer [1][2] when launch with -C option
when systemd (is enabled) takes the control of syslog messages and then forward
the messages to busybox syslog daemon, systemd journald don't usage of shmmem
circular buffer.
If -C is specified busybox-syslog never be able to read the forwarded
messages from systemd journald and don't wrote it to /var/log/messages.
This file is only installed when systemd is enabled [3].
