Logger implementation for low level kernel log (using /dev/kmsg
)
Usually intended for low level implementations, like systemd generators, which have to use /dev/kmsg
:
Since syslog is not available (see above) write log messages to /dev/kmsg instead.
[dependencies] log = "0.4" kernlog = "0.3"
#[macro_use] extern crate log; extern crate kernlog; fn main() { kernlog::init().unwrap(); warn!("something strange happened"); }
Note you have to have permissions to write to /dev/kmsg
, which normal users (not root) usually don't.
