Title: #5477: DEBUG: Drop custom syslog identifier from journald
Action: edited
Changed field: body
Original value:
"""
SYSLOG_IDENTIFIER should not use square brackets "[]" as a separator. As per the
informational RFC 3164, square brackets in the TAG portion represent the process ID
(PID).
If Journald is forwarded to Syslog and written in line with RFC 3164, the resulting lines
would have contained TAG as:
- `sssd[sudo][1234]: `
- `sssd[be[EXAMPLE.COM]][1235]: `
This change replaces those respectively with
- `sssd(sudo)[1234]: `
- `sssd(be(EXAMPLE.COM))[1235]: `
This still allows parsing the SYSLOG_IDENTIFIER, if so preferred, while complying with RFC
3164 at the same time.
