Pretexting is normal to generate don't wanted logs because of, shell parsing exists ?

I prefer to not have /ping logs as FPM can eliminate this entries ; it will save the resouces. And
some economies from here and from there, terminates by a lot of resources, so a lot of economies.
Think big, how many logs represents unwanted logs on thousands servers ? Your argument "not
seen why" does it match with needs ? Let me bring few elements of response.

Apache permit full conditionnal logs :

- https://httpd.apache.org/docs/trunk/en/logs.html#conditional

Haproxy permit some conditionnal logs :

HAproxt - Options dontlog-normal / dontlognull :
- https://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/2.4/configuration.html#4.2-option%20dontlog-normal
- https://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/2.4/configuration.html#4.2-option%20dontlognull

Haproxy - Disabling logging of successful connections :
- https://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/2.4/configuration.html#chapter-8.3.3

Really not seeing the need for this, a grep -v "GET /ping" does the same in a
more generic way.

for one week logs, on each PHP-FPM server, i have 278.519 useless lines:

$> grep "/ping" /var/log/php8/mypool/access.log{,.1} | wc -l
278519

Moreover I have almost 2% of logs with %C%% (user + system CPU, not tested separately) that display
absurdity: 

$> grep "0.00%$" /var/log/php8/mypool/access.log{,.1} | wc -l
277059

$> grep -v "0.00%$" /var/log/php8/mypool/access.log{,.1} | wc -l
3974

$> grep -v "0.00%$" /var/log/php8/mypool/access.log{,.1}  | grep "/ping" |

Description:
------------
I have PHP-FPM, I want generate access logs but, not /ping logs when :

ping.path = /ping

I am looking for an option to disable /ping access from the logs, because I have some haproxy
servers that ping and it produce quantity of logs i don't need.

May a new config entry could prevent it ?

suggestion ( ping.log = no ) [default]

$> tail /var/log/php8/mypool/access.log
