Proxy Log Level

The Linkerd proxy's log level can be configured via the:

• LINKERD_PROXY_LOG environment variable
• —proxy-log-level CLI flag of the install, inject and upgrade commands
• config.linkerd.io/proxy-log-level annotation (refer to Proxy Configurationfor more information on using config annotations).

The log level is a comma-separated list of log directives, which isbased on the logging syntax of the env_logger crate.

A log directive consists of either:

• A level (e.g. info), which sets the global log level, or
• A module path (e.g. foo or foo::bar::baz), or
• A module path followed by an equals sign and a level (e.g. foo=warnor foo::bar::baz=debug), which sets the log level for that module

A level is one of:

• trace
• debug
• info
• warn
• error

A module path represents the path to a Rust module. It consists of one or moremodule names, separated by ::.

A module name starts with a letter, and consists of alphanumeric characters and _.

The proxy's default log level is set to warn,linkerd2_proxy=info.
