SSSD supports two representations for specifying the debug level. The
simplest is to specify a decimal value from 0-9, which represents
enabling that level and all lower-level debug messages. The more
comprehensive option is to specify a hexadecimal bitmask to enable or
disable specific levels (such as if you wish to suppress a level).
Currently supported debug levels:
0,
0x0010:
Fatal failures. Anything that would prevent SSSD from starting up or
causes it to cease running.
1,
0x0020:
Critical failures. An error that doesn't kill the SSSD, but one that
indicates that at least one major feature is not going to work
properly.
2,
0x0040: Serious failures. An error announcing
that a particular request or operation has failed.
3,
0x0080: Minor failures. These are the errors that
would percolate down to cause the operation failure of 2.
4,
0x0100: Configuration settings.
5,
0x0200: Function data.
6,
0x0400: Trace messages for operation functions.
7,
0x1000: Trace messages for internal control
functions.
8,
0x2000: Contents of function-internal variables
that may be interesting.
9,
0x4000: Extremely low-level tracing information.
To log required bitmask debug levels, simply add their numbers together
as shown in following examples:
Example: To log fatal failures, critical failures,
serious failures and function data use 0x0270.
Example: To log fatal failures, configuration
settings, function data, trace messages for internal control functions
use 0x1310.
Note: The bitmask format of debug levels was
introduced in 1.7.0.
Default: 0
