Populating log_metadata during zeek_init() is too late for the
leftover-log-rotation functionality, so do it at script parse time.
Also, prepend archiver_ to the log_metadata table and encoding function
due to being in the global namespace and to align with the
archiver_rotation_format_func. This hasn't been in a released
version yet, so fine to rename still.
Closes#3112
When multiple loggers are configured in a Supervisor controlled cluster
configuration, encode extra information into the rotated filename to
identify which logger produced the log.
This is similar to the approach taken for ZeekControl, re-using the
log_suffix terminology, but as there's only a single zeek-archiver
process and no postprocessors and no other side-channel for additional
information, we encode extra metadata into the filename. zeek-archiver
is extended to recognize the special metadata part of the filename.
This also solves the issue that multiple loggers in a supervisor setup
overwrite each others log files within a single log-queue directory.
- Restored a deprecated version of 'supervisor_rotation_format_func'
during merge.
* origin/topic/vlad/expose_supervisor_rotation_func:
Rename supervisor_rotation_format_func to archiver_rotation_format_func, and expose it for non-supervised setups
We have a use case to rotate leftover log files in a non-supervisor
setup. There doesn't seem to be a strict requirement on supervisor
functionality. Allow enabling leftover log rotation through
LogAscii::enable_leftover_log_rotation and redef this for the
logger node in a supervisor setup individually.
These may be redefined to customize log rotation path prefixes,
including use of a directory. File extensions are still up to
individual log writers to add themselves during the actual rotation.
These new also allow for some simplication to the default
ASCII postprocessor function: it eliminates the need for it doing an
extra/awkward rename() operation that only changes the timestamp format.
This also teaches the supervisor framework to use these new options
to rotate ascii logs into a log-queue/ directory with a specific
file name format (intended for an external archiver process to
monitor separately).
