[Xen-devel] [PATCH 3/4] xenstored logging: send trace messages to syslog

[james-xen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

From: James Dingwall <james@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Unconditionally openlog() since we allow tracesyslog to be changed at runtime.
Modify the trace() call to send messages to vsyslog() when tracesyslog is
enabled.

Note some trace() messages come in several calls before the '\n'.  This works
well when the output is a file stream but may not suit vsyslog() quite as well.
Primarily this feature is for xenstored in a stubdom which doesn't wrap the
message until '\n' so no attempt to coalesce trace() calls until '\n' is
made.  (Could trace() use vfprintf() to write to the log file?)
