If we can't write to stdout we prefer to panic immediately rather than
potentially lose logs we capture from redirecting stdout as a syslog backup.
A unit test is included to verify the panic behaviour. Prior to the `log` diff
in this branch the test failed because the non-nil `err` result from
`fmt.Printf` was being away:
```
=== RUN TestStdoutFailure
=== PAUSE TestStdoutFailure
=== CONT TestStdoutFailure
FAIL github.com/letsencrypt/boulder/log 0.011s
FAIL
```
After the `log` package diff in this branch is applied the test passes.
I additionally tested this end-to-end by redirecting stdout to a full
filesystem volume mounted into the Boulder docker image. It provoked the
expected panic when a component tried to write to stdout and the filesystem was
full.
Adds a CRC32-IEEE checksum to our log lines. At most this adds 8 bytes per line, and at least adds 2 bytes. Given this a relatively minor change I haven't bothered flagging it, although if we have anything in place that assumes the current structure of log lines we may want to add a flag in order to prevent immediate breakage before things can be altered.
Fixes#4474.
A very large number of the logger calls are of the form log.Function(fmt.Sprintf(...)).
Rather than sprinkling fmt.Sprintf at every logger call site, provide formatting versions
of the logger functions and call these directly with the format and arguments.
While here remove some unnecessary trailing newlines and calls to String/Error.
Use `t.Helper` and `t.Fatalf` instead of our own versions.
Remove some unused or single-user helpers.
Make the output of `AssetUnmarshaledEquals` clearer by showing one line per field.
In `log/log.go` when we fail to write to syslog we log the message to STDERR but without a newline. This causes all of the STDERR logs (when we reconnect to syslog) to be delivered where they go to be on a single line which causes some debugging pain.
This removes the config and code to output to statsd.
- Change `cmd.StatsAndLogging` to output a `Scope`, not a `Statter`.
- Remove the prefixing of component name (e.g. "VA") in front of stats; this was stripped by `autoProm` but now no longer needs to be.
- Delete vendored statsd client.
- Delete `MockStatter` (generated by gomock) and `mocks.Statter` (hand generated) in favor of mocking `metrics.Scope`, which is the interface we now use everywhere.
- Remove a few unused methods on `metrics.Scope`, and update its generated mock.
- Refactor `autoProm` and add `autoRegisterer`, which can be included in a `metrics.Scope`, avoiding global state. `autoProm` now registers everything with the `prometheus.Registerer` it is given.
- Change va_test.go's `setup()` to not return a stats object; instead the individual tests that care about stats override `va.stats` directly.
Fixes#2639, #2733.
* Fix all errcheck errors
* Add errcheck to test.sh
* Add a new sa.Rollback method to make handling errors in rollbacks easier.
This also causes a behavior change in the VA. If a HTTP connection is
abruptly closed after serving the headers for a non-200 response, the
reported error will be the read failure instead of the non-200.
- Remove error signatures from log methods. This means fewer places where errcheck will show ignored errors.
- Pull in latest cfssl to be compatible with errorless log messages.
- Reduce the number of message priorities we support to just those we actually use.
- AuditNotice -> AuditInfo
- Remove InfoObject (only one use, switched to Info)
- Remove EmergencyExit and related functions in favor of panic
- Remove SyslogWriter / AuditLogger separate types in favor of a single interface, Logger, that has all the logging methods on it.
- Merge mock log into logger. This allows us to unexport the internals but still override them in the mock.
- Shorten names to be compatible with Go style: New, Set, Get, Logger, NewMock, etc.
- Use a shorter log format for stdout logs.
- Remove "... Starting" log messages. We have better information in the "Versions" message logged at startup.
Motivation: The AuditLogger / SyslogWriter distinction was confusing and exposed internals only necessary for tests. Some components accepted one type and some accepted the other. This made it hard to consistently use mock loggers in tests. Also, the unnecessarily fat interface for AuditLogger made it hard to meaningfully mock out.
* Change panics in audit logger to log.Fatalf.
These errors can happen if the syslog apparatus is unavailable, so are not that
out of the ordinary. log.Fatalf produces less noise and makes it easier to see
what's wrong.
* Fix imports.
`godoc` associates the docs with the function or type listed after
the word "Example"; in this case "Errors" doesn't match anything in
github.com/letsencrypt/boulder/log, so the example doesn't appear in the
generated godoc.
Changes the function name to ExampleAuditLogger so it shows up under the
AuditLogger type.

This won't affect prod, where we use syslog. But for dev and test, where we log
to stdout, the colors may help us find errors and warnings in the logs.
This also adds the log level as an explicit part of the stdout logging.
Consolidate initialization of stats and logging from each main.go into cmd
package.
Define a new config parameter, `StdoutLevel`, that determines the maximum log
level that will be printed to stdout. It can be set to 6 to inhibit debug
messages, or 0 to print only emergency messages, or -1 to print no messages at
all.
Remove the existing config parameter `Tag`. Instead, choose the tag from the
basename of the currently running process. Previously all Boulder log messages
had the tag "boulder", but now they will be differentiated by process, like
"boulder-wfe".
Shorten the date format used in stdout logging, and add the current binary's
basename.
Consolidate setup function in audit-logger_test.go.
Note: Most CLI binaries now get their stats and logging from the parameters of
Action. However, a few of our binaries don't use our custom AppShell, and
instead use codegangsta/cli directly. For those binaries, we export the new
StatsAndLogging method from cmd.

Found when poking at the new containerized Travis CI build with
@rolandshoemaker. This was causing strange panics far away from here
when code would try to log audits when there was no syslog available.
