*format, uint8_t priority, uint32_t lineno, uint32_t tags,...)
__attribute__((format(printf
This function is to import logs from other code (like libraries) that provide a
callback with their logs.
void struct qb_log_callsite * qb_log_callsite_get (const char *function, const char
*filename, const char *format, uint8_t priority, uint32_t lineno, uint32_t tags)

Init the logging system.
void qb_log_fini (void)
Logging system finalization function.
int32_t qb_log_callsites_register (struct qb_log_callsite *_start, struct qb_log_callsite
*_stop)
If you are using dynamically loadable modules via dlopen() and you load them after
qb_log_init() then after you load the module you will need to do the following to get
the filters to work in that module:
void qb_log_callsites_dump (void)
Dump the callsite info to stdout.
int32_t qb_log_ctl (int32_t target, enum qb_log_conf conf_type, int32_t arg)
Main logging control function.
int32_t qb_log_ctl2 (int32_t target, enum qb_log_conf conf_type, qb_log_ctl2_arg_t arg)

int32_t qb_log_filter_ctl (int32_t value, enum qb_log_filter_conf c, enum
qb_log_filter_type type, const char *text, uint8_t low_priority)
This allows you modify the 'tags' and 'targets' callsite fields at runtime.
int32_t qb_log_filter_ctl2 (int32_t value, enum qb_log_filter_conf c, enum
qb_log_filter_type type, const char *text, uint8_t high_priority, uint8_t

This extends qb_log_filter_ctl() by been able to provide a high_priority.
int32_t qb_log_filter_fn_set (qb_log_filter_fn fn)
Instead of using the qb_log_filter_ctl() functions you can apply the filters manually
by defining a callback and setting the targets field using qb_bit_set() and
qb_bit_clear() like the following below:
void qb_log_tags_stringify_fn_set (qb_log_tags_stringify_fn fn)
Set the callback to map the 'tags' bit map to a string.

const char *formatted_message, char *output_buffer)
format the callsite and timestamp info according to the format set using
qb_log_format_set() It is intended to be used from your custom logger function.

Detailed Description
The logging API provides four main parts (basics, filtering, threading & blackbox).
The idea behind this logging system is not to be prescriptive but to provide a set of
tools to help the developer achieve what they want quickly and easily.
Basic logging API.
Call qb_log() to generate a log message. Then to write the message somewhere
meaningful call qb_log_ctl() to configure the targets.
Simplest possible use:
main() {
qb_log_init("simple-log", LOG_DAEMON, LOG_INFO);
// ...
qb_log(LOG_WARNING, "watch out");
// ...
qb_log_fini();
}
Configuring log targets.
A log target can be syslog, stderr, the blackbox, stdout, or a text file. By default
only syslog is enabled.
To enable a target do the following:
qb_log_ctl(QB_LOG_BLACKBOX, QB_LOG_CONF_ENABLED, QB_TRUE);
syslog, stderr, the blackbox, and stdout are static (they don't need to be created, just
enabled or disabled). However you can open multiple logfiles (QB_LOG_TARGET_MAX -
QB_LOG_TARGET_STATIC_MAX). To do this, use the following code:
mytarget = qb_log_file_open("/var/log/mylogfile");
qb_log_ctl(mytarget, QB_LOG_CONF_ENABLED, QB_TRUE);
Once your targets are enabled/opened you can configure them as follows: Configure the size
of blackbox
qb_log_ctl(QB_LOG_BLACKBOX, QB_LOG_CONF_SIZE, 1024*10);
Make logging to file threaded:
qb_log_ctl(mytarget, QB_LOG_CONF_THREADED, QB_TRUE);
To workaround your syslog daemon filtering all messages > LOG_INFO
qb_log_ctl(QB_LOG_SYSLOG, QB_LOG_CONF_PRIORITY_BUMP,
LOG_INFO - LOG_DEBUG);
To ensure all logs to file targets are fsync'ed (default QB_FALSE)
qb_log_ctl(mytarget, QB_LOG_CONF_FILE_SYNC, QB_TRUE);
Filtering messages.
To have more power over what log messages go to which target you can apply filters to
the targets. What happens is the desired callsites have the correct bit set. Then when
the log message is generated it gets sent to the targets based on which bit is set in
the callsite's 'target' bitmap. Messages can be filtered based on the:
1. filename + priority
2. function name + priority
3. format string + priority
So to make all logs from evil_function() go to stderr, do the following:
qb_log_filter_ctl(QB_LOG_STDERR, QB_LOG_FILTER_ADD,
QB_LOG_FILTER_FUNCTION, "evil_function", LOG_TRACE);
So to make all logs from totem* (with a priority <= LOG_INFO) go to stderr, do the
following:
qb_log_filter_ctl(QB_LOG_STDERR, QB_LOG_FILTER_ADD,
QB_LOG_FILTER_FILE, "totem", LOG_INFO);
So to make all logs with the substring 'ringbuffer' go to stderr, do the following:
qb_log_filter_ctl(QB_LOG_STDERR, QB_LOG_FILTER_ADD,
QB_LOG_FILTER_FORMAT, "ringbuffer", LOG_TRACE);
Thread safe non-blocking logging.
Logging is only thread safe when threaded logging is in use. If you plan on logging
from multiple threads, you must initialize libqb's logger thread and use
qb_log_filter_ctl to set the QB_LOG_CONF_THREADED flag on all the logging targets in
use.
To achieve non-blocking logging, so that any calls to write() or syslog() will not hold up
your program, you can use threaded logging as well.
Threaded logging use:
main() {
qb_log_init("simple-log", LOG_DAEMON, LOG_INFO);
qb_log_ctl(QB_LOG_SYSLOG, QB_LOG_CONF_THREADED, QB_TRUE);
// ...
daemonize();
// call this after you fork()
qb_log_thread_start();
// ...
qb_log(LOG_WARNING, "watch out");
// ...
qb_log_fini();
}
A blackbox for in-field diagnosis.
This stores log messages in a ringbuffer so they can be written to file if the program
crashes (you will need to catch SIGSEGV). These can then be easily printed out later.
Note:
the blackbox is not enabled by default.
Blackbox usage:
static void sigsegv_handler(int sig)
{
(void)signal (SIGSEGV, SIG_DFL);
qb_log_blackbox_write_to_file("simple-log.fdata");
qb_log_fini();
raise(SIGSEGV);
}
main() {
signal(SIGSEGV, sigsegv_handler);
qb_log_init("simple-log", LOG_DAEMON, LOG_INFO);
qb_log_filter_ctl(QB_LOG_BLACKBOX, QB_LOG_FILTER_ADD,
QB_LOG_FILTER_FILE, "*", LOG_DEBUG);
qb_log_ctl(QB_LOG_BLACKBOX, QB_LOG_CONF_SIZE, 1024*10);
qb_log_ctl(QB_LOG_BLACKBOX, QB_LOG_CONF_ENABLED, QB_TRUE);
// ...
qb_log(LOG_WARNING, "watch out");
// ...
qb_log_fini();
}
Tagging messages.
You can tag messages using the second argument to qb_logt() or by using
qb_log_filter_ctl(). This can be used to add feature or sub-system information to the
logs.
const char* my_tags_stringify(uint32_t tags) {
if (qb_bit_is_set(tags, QB_LOG_TAG_LIBQB_MSG_BIT) {
return "libqb";
} else if (tags == 3) {
return "three";
} else {
return "MAIN";
}
}
main() {
// ...
qb_log_tags_stringify_fn_set(my_tags_stringify);
qb_log_format_set(QB_LOG_STDERR, "[%5g] %p %b");
// ...
qb_logt(LOG_INFO, 3, "hello");
qb_logt(LOG_INFO, 0, "hello");
}
The code above will produce:
[libqb] some message
[three] info hello
[MAIN ] info hello

This is similar to perror except it goes into the logging system.
Parameters:
priority this takes syslog priorities.
fmt usual printf style format specifiers
args usual printf style args
Note:
Because qb_perror() adds the system error message and error number onto the end of the
given fmt, that information will become extended information if QB_XS is used inside
fmt and will not show up in any logs that strip extended information.

Note: only use this with custom targets int32_t qb_log_thread_priority_set (int32_t policy, int32_t priority) When using threaded logging set the pthread policy and priority. Return values: -errno on error 0 success int32_t qb_log_thread_start (void) Start the logging pthread.
