[Linux-HA] socket of lrmd

[Junko IKEDA]

Hi,

I try to strace of lrmd.

(1) running syslog, and strace
# service syslog start
# strace -o /tmp/strace-syslog-start.txt /usr/lib64/heartbeat/lrmd -rv

socket(PF_FILE, SOCK_DGRAM, 0)          = 3
fcntl(3, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC)           = 0
connect(3, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/dev/log"...}, 110) = 0
sendto(3, "<30>Jul  2 17:02:46 lrmd: [16211"..., 102, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) = 102

(2) stop syslog and strace
# service syslog stop
# strace -o /tmp/strace-syslog-stop.txt /usr/lib64/heartbeat/lrmd -rv

socket(PF_FILE, SOCK_DGRAM, 0)          = 3
fcntl(3, F_SETFD, FD_CLOEXEC)           = 0
connect(3, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path="/dev/log"...}, 110) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
close(3)                                = 0
open("/dev/console", O_WRONLY|O_NOCTTY) = 3

(for more details, see the attached files)

Is the socket of lrmd for syslog?
wild guess?


Thanks,
Junko
