For reference the paths are:
let xenstored_log_destination = ref (File "/var/log/xenstored.log")
let access_log_destination = ref (File "/var/log/xenstored-access.log”)
These correspond to the command line arguments:
("access-log-file", Config.String Logging.set_access_log_destination);
("xenstored-log-file", Config.String Logging.set_xenstored_log_destination);
I think if you want to remove these paths completely from the binary then generating a simple module would be fine. I guess other options would be
- make the paths into optional values, default to None, and interpret None as “don’t bother logging”. Might not be a good idea to encourage people to turn off logging though.
- make it mandatory to set the paths via the config file?
I don’t have a strong opinion though :-)
Cheers,
Dave
