Leif Hedstrom commented on TS-2162:
-----------------------------------
So as per the new policies, this can *not* land on master until v5.0. It's an
incompatible change, that breaks backwards compatibility.
Fwiw, I think you assessment that "most people do this" is wrong. Of all the
times I've done custom logs, I've *never* used a filter.
> Auto-created collation LogObject would be misused by access log

> Project: Traffic Server
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Logging
> Reporter: Yunkai Zhang
>
> When collation host receives LogBuffer data from network, it'll create
> LogObject according the format of LogBuffer data.
> Since the log filter of these auto-created LogObjects are empty, they will
> be misused by access log in collation host -- m_filter_list.toss_this_entry()
> will always return false when m_does_conjunction is set.
> I have a simple solution to fix this issue: make toss_this_entry() returns
> true when filter list is empty.
> ==NOTE==
> After apply this solution, user should configure at least one filter for each
> log object in logs_xml.config, otherwise the log object will be tossed
> always. Luckily, that what most users do. I will update the comment of
> logs_xml.config.default to reflect this minor change.
