DEBUGINFOD-CLIENT-CONFIG(7)      Miscellaneous Information Manual     DEBUGINFOD-CLIENT-CONFIG(7)

NAME
       debuginfod-client-config  -  debuginfod  client environment variables, cache control files
       and etc.

SYNOPSIS
       Several environment variables and control files control the behaviour of debuginfod client
       applications.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
       $TMPDIR
              This  environment  variable points to a file system to be used for temporary files.
              The default is /tmp.

       $DEBUGINFOD_URLS
              This environment variable contains a list of URL prefixes  for  trusted  debuginfod
              instances.  Alternate URL prefixes are separated by space.  Avoid referential loops
              that cause a server to contact itself, directly or indirectly - the  results  would
              be hilarious.

       $DEBUGINFOD_CACHE_PATH
              This  environment variable governs the location of the cache where downloaded files
              and cache-control files are kept.  The default directory is chosen based  on  other
              environment variables, see below.

       $DEBUGINFOD_PROGRESS
              This  environment variable governs the default progress function.  If set, and if a
              progressfn is not explicitly set, then the library will configure  a  default  pro-
              gressfn.   This  function  will  append  a  simple progress message periodically to
              stderr.  The default is no progress function output.

       $DEBUGINFOD_VERBOSE
              This environment variable governs the default file descriptor for  verbose  output.
              If  set, and if a verbose fd is not explicitly set, then the verbose output will be
              produced on STDERR_FILENO.

       $DEBUGINFOD_RETRY_LIMIT
              This environment variable governs the default limit of retry attempts. If  a  query
              failed  with  errno  other  than  ENOENT, will initiate several attempts within the
              limit.

       $DEBUGINFOD_TIMEOUT
              This environment variable governs the download commencing timeout for each debugin-
              fod  HTTP  connection.  A server that fails to provide at least 100K of data within
              this many seconds is skipped. The default is 90 seconds.  (Zero or  negative  means
              "no timeout".)

       $DEBUGINFOD_MAXTIME
              This  environment  variable  dictates how long the client will wait to complete the
              download a file found on a server in seconds. It is best used to ensure that a file
              is downloaded quickly or be rejected. The default is 0 (infinite time).

       $DEBUGINFOD_MAXSIZE
              This environment variable dictates the maximum size of a file to download in bytes.
              This is best used if the user would like to ensure only small files are downloaded.
              A  value of 0 causes no consideration for size, and the client may attempt to down-
              load a file of any size.  The default is 0 (infinite size).

CACHE
       Before each query, the debuginfod client library checks for a need to clean the cache.  If
       it's  time  to clean, the library traverses the cache directory and removes downloaded de-
       buginfo-related artifacts and newly empty directories, if they have not been accessed  re-
       cently.

       Control files are located directly under the cache directory.  They contain simple decimal
       numbers to set cache-related configuration parameters.  If the files  do  not  exist,  the
       client library creates the files with the default parameter values as content.

       After  each  query, the debuginfod client library deposits newly received files into a di-
       rectory & file that is named based on the build-id.  A failed query is also  cached  by  a
       special  file.   The  naming  convention  used for these artifacts is deliberately undocu-
       mented.

       $XDG_CACHE_HOME/debuginfod_client/
              Default cache directory, if $XDG_CACHE_HOME is set.

       $HOME/.cache/debuginfod_client/
              Default cache directory, if $XDG_CACHE_HOME is not set.

       $HOME/.debuginfod_client_cache/
              Deprecated cache directory, used only if preexisting.

       cache_clean_interval_s
              This control file gives the interval between cache  cleaning  rounds,  in  seconds.
              The default is 86400, one day.  0 means "immediately".

       max_unused_age_s
              This control file sets how long unaccessed debuginfo-related files are retained, in
              seconds.  The default is 604800, one week.  0 means "immediately".

       cache_miss_s
              This control file sets how long to remember  a  query  failure,  in  seconds.   New
              queries for the same artifacts within this time window are short-circuited (return-
              ing an immediate failure instead of sending a new query to servers).  This acceler-
              ates  queries  that  probably would still fail.  The default is 600, 10 minutes.  0
              means "forget immediately".

                                                                      DEBUGINFOD-CLIENT-CONFIG(7)
