Details

log_sink and log_server are a remote logger solution to forward the Scorpion Linux logs to the VR9 Linux
on 3490, 5490, 5491 and 7490 models.

log_sink sends data to a range of internal IPv6 UDP ports via the eth0 interfacee of the Scorpion which connects the VR9.
The data comes from a range of logs on the Scorpion Linux, which are always FIFOs created with mkfifo.
Excerpt from a 7490 fw 7.29 ps on Scorpion:

 112     1 root     S     1436  1.2   0  0.0 log_sink -s fe80::b8db:adff:fec0:ffee -d -i eth0 -w 10 /tmp/supportdata_scrpn fe80::2de:adff:febe:efca 4221

 101     1 root     S     1436  1.2   0  0.0 log_sink -s fe80::b8db:adff:fec0:ffee -d -i eth0 -w 10 /tmp/wland_hal_remoted.log fe80::2de:adff:febe:efca 4210
  93     1 root     S     1432  1.2   0  0.0 log_sink -s fe80::b8db:adff:fec0:ffee -d -i eth0 -w 15 /var/flash/crash.log fe80::2de:adff:febe:efca 4214

The counterpart daemon runninng on the VR9 Linux is log_server which writes the forwarded data to logs.
There's also a temporary use of log_sink on the VR9 Linux when creating supportdata.wlan or supportdata_argo.wlan.
Excerpt from supportdata.wlan on 7490 fw 7.29 VR9:

log_server -b1024 -t10 -i wasp 4221 /tmp/supportdata_wlan_offload &
mkfifo /tmp/rcmd_scrpn
log_sink -s fe80::2de:adff:febe:efca -i wasp /tmp/rcmd_scrpn fe80::b8db:adff:fec0:ffee 4220 &
...
echo "support" > /tmp/rcmd_scrpn
sleep ...
...
kill -SIGUSR1 "$sink_pid"
kill -SIGUSR1 "$server_pid"
rm /tmp/rcmd_scrpn
...
cat /tmp/supportdata_wlan_offload

rcmd_scrpn is forwarded to rcmd_vr9 in the Scorpion side and interpreted by watch_supportdata_trigger there.

fw 7.29 help:

fritz3:/var/media/ftp $ log_sink -?

Usage: log_sink [OPTION...] File DestIP DestPort

log_sink reads from a file and sends the data to a UDP port (IPv6only)

  -d, --daemon               start daemonized
  -i, --interface=intf       interface name
  -s, --src-ip=IPv6          source ip address
  -v, --verbose              verbose

  -?, --help                 Give this help list
      --usage                Give a short usage message
  -V, --version              Print program version

Mandatory or optional arguments to long options are also mandatory or optional
for any corresponding short options.
