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

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:



   _start = dlsym (dl_handle, QB_ATTR_SECTION_START_STR);
_stop = dlsym (dl_handle, QB_ATTR_SECTION_STOP_STR);
qb_log_callsites_register(_start, _stop);

int32_t qb_log_ctl (int32_ttarget, enum qb_log_confconf_type, int32_targ)

Main logging control function.

Parameters:

target QB_LOG_SYSLOG, QB_LOG_STDERR or result from qb_log_file_open()
conf_type configuration directive ('what to configure') that accepts int32_t argument determining the new value unless ignored for particular directive altogether (incompatible directives: QB_LOG_CONF_IDENT)
arg the new value for a state-changing configuration directive, ignored otherwise

See Also:

qb_log_conf

Return values:

-errno on error
0 on success
qb_log_target_state for QB_LOG_CONF_STATE_GET

•
QB_LOG_CONF_IDENT)

arg the new value for a state-changing configuration directive, ignored otherwise; for QB_LOG_CONF_IDENT, 's' member as new identifier to openlog(), for all qb_log_ctl-compatible ones, 'i32' member is assumed (although a preferred way is to use that original function directly as it allows for more type safety)

See Also:

qb_log_ctl

Note:

You can use QB_LOG_CTL2_I32 and QB_LOG_CTL2_S macros for a convenient on-the-fly construction of the object to be passed as an arg argument.

void qb_log_custom_close (int32_tt)

Close a custom log target and release is resources.

int32_t qb_log_filter_ctl (int32_tvalue, enum qb_log_filter_confc, enum qb_log_filter_typetype, const char *text, uint8_tlow_priority)

This allows you modify the 'tags' and 'targets' callsite fields at runtime.

int32_t qb_log_filter_ctl2 (int32_tvalue, enum qb_log_filter_confc, enum qb_log_filter_typetype, const char *text, uint8_thigh_priority, uint8_tlow_priority)

This extends qb_log_filter_ctl() by been able to provide a high_priority.

int32_t qb_log_filter_fn_set (qb_log_filter_fnfn)

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:

static void
m_filter(struct qb_log_callsite *cs)
{


        if ((cs->priority >= LOG_ALERT &&


             cs->priority <= LOG_DEBUG) &&


             strcmp(cs->filename, "my_c_file.c") == 0) {


                qb_bit_set(cs->targets, QB_LOG_SYSLOG);


        } else {


                qb_bit_clear(cs->targets, QB_LOG_SYSLOG);


        }
}

void qb_log_fini (void)

Logging system finalization function. It releases any shared memory. Stops the logging thread if running. Flushes the last messages to their destinations.

void qb_log_format_set (int32_tt, const char *format)

Set the format specifiers. n FUNCTION NAME f FILENAME l FILELINE p PRIORITY t TIMESTAMP b BUFFER g TAGS N name (passed into qb_log_init) P PID H hostname

any number between % and character specify field length to pad or chop

void qb_log_from_external_source (const char *function, const char *filename, const char *format, uint8_tpriority, uint32_tlineno, uint32_ttags, ...)

This function is to import logs from other code (like libraries) that provide a callback with their logs.

Note:

the performance of this will not impress you, as the filtering is done on each log message, not beforehand. So try doing basic pre-filtering.

Parameters:

function originating function name
filename originating filename
format format string
priority this takes syslog priorities.
lineno file line number
tags this is a uint32_t that you can use with qb_log_tags_stringify_fn_set() to 'tag' a log message with a feature or sub-system then you can use '%g' in the format specifer to print it out.

void qb_log_from_external_source_va (const char *function, const char *filename, const char *format, uint8_tpriority, uint32_tlineno, uint32_ttags, va_listap)

void qb_log_init (const char *name, int32_tfacility, uint8_tpriority)

Init the logging system.

Parameters:

name will be passed into openlog()
facility default for all new targets.
priority a basic filter with this priority will be added.

void qb_log_real_ (struct qb_log_callsite *cs, ...)

Internal function: use qb_log() or qb_logt()

void qb_log_real_va_ (struct qb_log_callsite *cs, va_listap)

void qb_log_tags_stringify_fn_set (qb_log_tags_stringify_fnfn)

Set the callback to map the 'tags' bit map to a string.

void qb_log_target_format (int32_ttarget, struct qb_log_callsite *cs, time_ttimestamp, 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.

void* qb_log_target_user_data_get (int32_tt)

Retrieve the user data set by either qb_log_custom_open or qb_log_target_user_data_set.

int32_t qb_log_target_user_data_set (int32_tt, void *user_data)

Associate user data with this log target.

Note:

only use this with custom targets

int32_t qb_log_thread_priority_set (int32_tpolicy, int32_tpriority)

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.
