esp-idf 5.1 crazy amount of log output... way different than before

[PeteDD]

ESP-IDF 5.1 is putting out way more information on the serial port than prior releases did.
Any log setting above

Code: Select all

CONFIG_LOG_DEFAULT_LEVEL=0

produces a bunch of serial output like the following what I show below... In fact, NONE of these messages shown actually come from any of the ESP_LOG statements in my code.

This is very different than what I got with similar settings before esp-idf 5.1.
Are there other settings in sdkconfig (menuconfig) that I need to look at to get back to ONLY the output of the ESP_LOG statements that I put in my code? Or will I just have to go into each library and see what they are logging there? This really has destroyed the usefulness of ESP_LOG for me. I use it extensively in my code and now the output has a ton of additional messaging that totally buggers up my apps. Sigh.

You can do something like this to minimize it. use ESP_LOG_NONE to disable all logging. Then turn on what you do want to log.


#define MAIN_TAG "Main"

void app_main(void)
{
esp_log_level_set("*", ESP_LOG_NONE);
esp_log_level_set(MAIN_TAG, ESP_LOG_VERBOSE);

Thanks. I ended up doing something like that and adding my own "MY_LOG_LEVEL" and then setting in my settings.h file

Code: Select all

#define MY_LOG_LEVEL ESP_LOG_DEBUG

then, in each of my functions, something like this...

Code: Select all

    static const char *TAG = "wifiInit";
    esp_log_level_set(TAG, MY_LOG_LEVEL);

Now I can control the output to be the logging of my functions and if I want to see all that "crazy" logging of all the library and system functions, I can still remover the

Code: Select all

esp_log_level_set("*", ESP_LOG_NONE);

from setup() and set the following in my settings.h, for example

Code: Select all

#define LOG_LOCAL_LEVEL ESP_LOG_DEBUG

best of both worlds... just now have to apply this to all my projects that I want to move forward on the ESP_IDF 5.1

Thanks again.
