             Summary: Support log level configuration with static Spark conf
                 Key: SPARK-43782
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-43782
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Spark Core
    Affects Versions: 3.4.0
            Reporter: Yan-Lin (Jared) Wang


Today users are using {{sc.setLogLevel}} to configure the current log level 
using {{SparkContext}} accessible from within the {{{}SparkSession{}}}. It is a 
convenient alternative to directly depending on the Log4j mechanism like 
statically changing the {{log4j.xml}} or dynamically invoke the Log4j API.

It would be great to allow the configuration of the log level using a static 
Spark conf that has the same kind of simplicity, which comes in handy when we 
don't want to manually change the {{{}log4j.xml{}}}. This is particularly 
helpful in the Spark Connect scenario where there’s no way for the client to 
call {{setLogLevel}} because {{SparkContext}} is not yet supported in its API, 
and when it connects to a platform where it can't easily change the Log4j 
config file.
