It would be a relatively easy global change to the existing logging functions to do something like you suggest. It's generic to a logging context, and vaguely similar to log4j...

@morrone can we close this as being subsumed in change proposal 5?

There is a practical solution to this which is already available-- use the genders-based systemd ldms configuration shipped with the ldmsd rpms. It is 'load' and 'start' freed. The standard...

Please suggest an actual declarative configuration syntax and semantics for the '1st class' configuration agent. The current genders implementation represents the minimum needed for ldms v2/v3. I can picture something...

json is, as tom noted, siutable for use as a wire protocol representing binary structures. for ldms we need both more and less than json. i will convert a production...

For use with other tools, we should consider including a requirement that the syntax be trivially mappable to json. I already have a json parser that does line tracking and...

@morrone I like the idea of simplifying genders (if needed at all) down to something indicating which ldmsd instance one wants launched (ldmsd collector, ldmsd agg, etc), but there is...

by-the-by I see no reason a change like this couldn't be backported to work with v4/systemd. I doubt it has any implications on the existing command-line language or wire protocols...

The aggregators and samplers need to agree on port assignments, transports, and schemas, which is complicated enough to be easy to mismatch if they are defined separately. But perhaps if...

@morrone @tom95858 @gentile I added a proposal page related to this issue of the sort discussed at LDMSCON, where most agreed that something like PEP (python) was perhaps too much...
