Subject: [ruby-core:44092] [ruby-trunk - Bug #6248][Third Party's Issue] Truncation of log when null character included in stream


Issue #6248 has been updated by drbrain (Eric Hodel).

Category set to ext
Status changed from Open to Third Party's Issue
Priority changed from Low to Normal

=begin
Seems to be an issue of syslog(), not ruby:

  $ cat t.c 
  #include <syslog.h>
  #include <stdarg.h>
  
  int main() {
    openlog("test", LOG_PID, LOG_USER);
  
    syslog(LOG_DEBUG, "%s", "hello\0world");
  
    return 0;
  }
  $ gcc t.c && ./a.out
  $ sudo grep test /var/log/all.log
  Apr  2 16:03:38 ziz test[15322]: hello

=end

Category: ext
Target version: 
ruby -v: ruby 1.9.2p290


require 'syslog'

 Syslog.open("n")
 Syslog.info("everything is normal and fine\0 additional message")


This results in the following log message. 

example n[9270]: everything is normal and fine
