== osmo-remsim logging
All programs within the osmo-remsim project use the logging sub-system of `libosmocore`.
Contrary to the larger Osmocom projects with their own VTY + configuration file, the
logging configuration for osmo-remsim programs must happen via command line arguments.
Also, contrary to the larger Osmocom projects, only logging to `stderr` is supported;
no direct logging to log files, syslog, systemd, etc. is supported at this point.
=== `-d` command line argument
Every osmo-remsim program like `osmo-remsim-bankd`, `osmo-remsim-server` or
`osmo-remsim-client-st2` supports a `-d` command line argument. This argument
takes one mandatory parameter configuring the log level for each log sub-system
as follows:
`-d SUBSYS,num_lvl[:SUBSYS,num_lvl[:...]]`
So basically, a colon-separated list of tuples, where each tuple contains the
sub-system name and the _numeric_ log level.
Below is the list of sub-systems and a table of numerical levels:

|DEBUG|1

|NOTICE|5
|ERROR|7
|FATAL|8

.osmo-remsim log sub-system names and their description
[options="header",width="50%",cols="1,2"]
|===
|Sub-System Name|Description
|DMAIN|respective main program code
|DST2|SIMtrace2 `cardem` firmware interaction via USB
|DRSPRO|RSPRO protocol between bankd, server and client
|DREST|REST interface of `osmo-remsim-server`
|DSLOTMAP|slotmap code shared by `osmo-remsim-server` and `osmo-remsim-bankd`
|DBANKDW|worker threads of `osmo-remsim-bankd`
|===
=== Example
Putting the above in a concrete example:
`-d DMAIN,5:DRSPRO,1`
would perform the following configuration:
* log only NOTICE (or higher) messages in the DMAIN subsystem (low verbosity)
* log DEBUG (or higher) messages in the DRSPRO subsystem (very high verbosity)
