If you set `BOOTSTRAP_TRACING=trace`, you will enable all logs, but that can be overwhelming. You can thus use the filter to reduce the amount of data logged. There are two orthogonal ways to control which kind of tracing logs you want: -1. You can specify the log **level**, e.g. `DEBUG` or `TRACE`. -2. You can also control the log **target**, e.g. `bootstrap` or `bootstrap::core::config` vs custom targets like `CONFIG_HANDLING`. - - Custom targets are used to limit what is output when `BOOTSTRAP_TRACING=bootstrap=TRACE` is used, as they can be too verbose even for `TRACE` level by default.

You can specify the log **level**, e.g. `debug` or `trace`. + - If you select a level, all events/spans with an equal or higher priority level will be shown. +2.

Note that executed commands have `info` event level. + - `COMMAND`: show all executed commands. Note that executed commands have `trace` event level. You can of course combine them (custom target logs are typically gated behind `TRACE` log level additionally): ```bash -$ BOOTSTRAP_TRACING=CONFIG_HANDLING=TRACE ./x build library --stage 1 +$ BOOTSTRAP_TRACING=CONFIG_HANDLING=trace,STEP=info,COMMAND=trace ./x build library --stage 1 ``` -[^unstable]: This output is always subject to further changes. - [tracing-env-filter]: https://docs.rs/tracing-subscriber/0.3.19/tracing_subscriber/filter/struct.EnvFilter.html +Note that the level that you specify using `BOOTSTRAP_TRACING` also has an effect on the spans that will be recorded in the Chrome trace file. + ##### FIXME(#96176): specific tracing for `compiler()` vs `compiler_for()` The additional targets `COMPILER` and `COMPILER_FOR` are used to help trace what @@ -123,12 +103,6 @@ if [#96176][cleanup-compiler-for] is resolved.
