Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 6/7 v2] Switch to filtering based on log source name instead of filename

Currently the log filter strings are used in a string comparison against the source filename each time log message is emitted. If no log filters at all are set, there's obviously no string comparison to be done. If any single log filter is set though, this imposes a compute burden on every logging call even if logs from the file in question are disabled. This string comparison must also be done while the logging mutex is held, which has implications for concurrency when multiple threads are emitting log messages.
