This adds a "policy" hook into the logging framework's streams and
filters to replace the existing log filter predicates. The hook
signature is as follows:
hook(rec: any, id: Log::ID, filter: Log::Filter);
The logging manager invokes hooks on each log record. Hooks can veto
log records via a break, and modify them if necessary. Log filters
inherit the stream-level hook, but can override or remove the hook as
needed.
The distribution's existing log streams now come with pre-defined
hooks that users can add handlers to. Their name is standardized as
"log_policy" by convention, with additional suffixes when a module
provides multiple streams. The following adds a handler to the Conn
module's default log policy hook:
hook Conn::log_policy(rec: Conn::Info, id: Log::ID, filter: Log::Filter)
{
if ( some_veto_reason(rec) )
break;
}
By default, this handler will get invoked for any log filter
associated with the Conn::LOG stream.
The existing predicates are deprecated for removal in 4.1 but continue
to work.
Changed some configuration defaults to potentially more same values.
The callback function is now a hook to allow costomization of the events
that are raised.
Tests now exist. Test baselines are updated.
I moved the replay function to a callback - which now means that the replayed
functions are called before file_state remove. Which makes this virtually
identical with the events raised by the core.
Currently this is mostly missing tests, leak-testing and performance-tests.
This approach mostly relies on script-level changes. In scriptland, we track
which certificates should be cached - and also perform the caching and the
replaying of events there.
This actually is probably nearly functional - the problem is the fact that now
the event ordering is wrong - and file_state_remove is called before the x509
events are thrown.
The fix probably is to move to a callback from the core - which can execute
things in the right order again. (Or just write the whole event-raising inside
the core - but that is both less flexible and a lot more cumbersome).
