Significant logging change(regression?) between 2.4.21 and 2.4.22?

[Buchan Milne]

I was playing with back-config on my laptop, and trying to get something
working that required some investigation of what was happening server-side. I
noticed that my usual logging (of "stats sync") seemed to have stopped
working.

After changing olcLogLevel a few times, I couldn't get behaviour consistent
with the slapd-config man page. So, I switched back to my previous slapd.conf,
and had the same problem.

Investigating, it looks like my last logging of "stats" was around:

Apr 27 14:36:42 tiger slapd[13031]: conn=185639 op=1 SEARCH RESULT tag=101
err=0 nentries=1 text=
....
Apr 27 14:37:03 tiger slapd[13031]: conn=81471 fd=79 closed (slapd shutdown)
Apr 27 14:37:04 tiger slapd[13031]: slapd shutdown: waiting for 0
operations/tasks to finish
Apr 27 14:37:05 tiger slapd[13031]: slapd stopped.

It looks pretty clear that 2.4.21 was working, 2.4.22 isn't.

I cannot duplicate this behavior with my 2.4.22 build. I had logging of
"None Sync", changed it to "stats sync" and it is logging correctly.

It looks like a non-obvious syslog configuration change caused this, which I
still haven't found. However, the weird part is the slapd startup message
makes it, but the "stats" logs don't ...

Thanks for confirming that it's not looking like an OpenLDAP bug ...
