#32181: remove custom Android logging, use syslog -----------------------+------------------------------ Reporter: eighthave | Owner: (none) Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Medium | Component: Core Tor/Tor Version: | Severity: Normal Keywords: Android | Actual Points: Parent ID: | Points: Reviewer: | Sponsor: -----------------------+------------------------------ As far as I can tell, syslog.h is fully supported for logging to Android's logcat. `syslog.h` is present as early as NDK r10e, if not earlier. It is also included on ''android-9'' (2.3). My quick tests show syslog working fine on ''android-22'' (5.1) through ''android-29'' (10) emulators. ''android-24'' (7.0) is currently the oldest version of Android supported by Google. syslog severity and identity tag are already mapped to the logcat versions.
@ahf is there some detail I'm missing? Were you having problems with syslog on Android? Since the "android" logging option was never documented, I think it should just be removed, long with the `add_android_log()` code that was added in #24362 https://github.com/torproject/tor/commit/b0b8f7c30c8296344c77d06a24821f35b667e3dd FYI, since syslog support is added about the same time as logcat support, #32036 is still an issue when using syslog with Android. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/32181> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
