depends-on #61

Why I did it

No be able to do the next things:

Perform log rotation separately for syslog and debug files
Configure log rotation parameters like rotation frequency, file size, file rotation count

Work item tracking

Microsoft ADO (number only):

How I did it

Add YANG model for a new configuration
Extend configuration templates to support new knobs

How to verify it

Which release branch to backport (provide reason below if selected)

Tested branch (Please provide the tested image version)

Description for the changelog

What is the purpose of differentiating debug message alone through separate configuration?

We use the debug file separately, so we need to have a separation. By default that file has the same configuration as it had before.

In my opinion we need separate file only if debugs are much more and require special attention. I don't think that's the case in sonic as we have all debug logs as part of syslog itself and I am not sure if debug file is used.

If you don't want to rotate it, you just don't configure it. For the rest of people who want to use debug file and rotate they can configure it in the DB and rotate.

Why do we need a different file for setting defaults. Can't we incorporate this in init_cfg.j2?

The default is shared between two configuration files. I don't want to explicitly incorporate debug/syslog files in the configuration. The default values here are used to fill data if the configuration in init_cfg.j2 doesn't exist.

This is default only for syslog related configuration. I would prefer renaming the file to avoid configuration

I am going to remove that file. I remember we discussed that approach with Ying Xie and decided to remove defaults from that file and use defaults in-place

We reviewed the code change needed, and will address it in the upcoming 2 weeks.

This file was not required previously. Why is this required now. Isn't rsyslog enough?

rsyslog was split into common and per-logfile config.
And the reason why it was done like that, because once config file will be generated, you can use to rotate corresponding log file manually, and not all files together.

Can you clarify what does this frequency control? The frequency of logrotate itself is being controlled by timer. Why is frequency needed here?

this is weekly, daily, monthly etc. https://linux.die.net/man/8/logrotate#:~:text=Each%20log%20file%20may%20be%20handled%20daily%2C%20weekly%2C%20monthly%2C%20or%20when%20it%20grows%20too%20large.
