log_dispatch_internal has only one caller where the extra_field/extra
params are not null: log_unit_full. When log_unit_full() was called,
when we got to log_dispatch_internal, our header would look like this:
PRIORITY=7
SYSLOG_FACILITY=3
CODE_FILE=../src/core/manager.c
CODE_LINE=2145
CODE_FUNC=manager_invoke_sigchld_event
USER_UNIT=gnome-terminal-server.service
65dffa7a3b984a6d9a46f0b8fb57710bUSER_INVOCATION_ID=
SYSLOG_IDENTIFIER=systemd
It took me a while to understand why I'm not seeing mangled messages in the
journal (after all, "" is a valid rvalue for log messages). The answer is that
journald rejects any field name which starts with a digit, and the MESSAGE_ID
that was used here starts with a digit. Hence, those lines would be silently
filtered out.
const char *func,
const char *object_field,
const char *object,
- const char *extra,
const char *extra_field,
+ const char *extra,
char *buffer) {
assert(buffer);
