Unclear logs flood at the console

Question

I can see a lot of repeated logs at the console with the form:

Subsystem: com.apple.securityd Category: dbsession  
DataGetNext(6080002782bb)  
and
Subsystem: com.apple.securityd Category: dbsession  
FreeUniqueRecord: 6080002782bb

I have a suspect that might cause this - the keyChain, but I'm not really sure, and I don't know if it's even a problem or just internal OS stuff.

Anyone has a clue what are those logs?

Apple's OS developers may be trying to give us more useful information to work with, but for 99% of developers, most of these messages are simply gibberish. It also may be that they forgot to disable (or make user-configurable) securityd logging. Developers have been complaining about this ever since Xcode 8 was introduced.

To squelch them, you can add OS_ACTIVITY_MODE=disable in your app's debug scheme or into your environment variables.

Sounds reasonable, but how can I be sure those logs don't suggest I did something wrong? – Witterquick Mar 13 '17 at 07:05
