    NAME

    closelog, openlog, setlogmask, syslog - control system log
     
    

    SYNOPSIS

    #include <syslog.h>

    void closelog(void);
    void openlog(const char *
    ident, int logopt, int facility);
    int setlogmask(int
    maskpri);
    void syslog(int
    priority, const char *message, ... /* arguments */);
     

    DESCRIPTION

    The syslog() function shall send a message to an implementation-defined logging facility, which may log it in an implementation-defined system log, write it to the system console, forward it to a list of users, or forward it to the logging facility on another host over the network. The logged message shall include a message header and a message body. The message header contains at least a timestamp and a tag string.

    The message body is generated from the message and following arguments in the same manner as if these were arguments to printf(), except that the additional conversion specification %m shall be recognized; it shall convert no arguments, shall cause the output of the error message string associated with the value of errno on entry to syslog(), and may be mixed with argument specifications of the "%n$" form. If a complete conversion specification with the m conversion specifier character is not just %m , the behavior is undefined. A trailing <newline> may be added if needed.

    Values of the priority argument are formed by OR'ing together a severity-level value and an optional facility value. If no facility value is specified, the current default facility value is used.

    Possible values of severity level include:

    LOG_EMERG
    A panic condition.
    LOG_ALERT
    A condition that should be corrected immediately, such as a corrupted system database.
    LOG_CRIT
    Critical conditions, such as hard device errors.
    LOG_ERR
    Errors.
    LOG_WARNING

    Warning messages.

    LOG_NOTICE
    Conditions that are not error conditions, but that may require special handling.
    LOG_INFO
    Informational messages.
    LOG_DEBUG
    Messages that contain information normally of use only when debugging a program.

    The facility indicates the application or system component generating the message. Possible facility values include:

    LOG_USER
    Messages generated by arbitrary processes. This is the default facility identifier if none is specified.
    LOG_LOCAL0
    Reserved for local use.
    LOG_LOCAL1
    Reserved for local use.
    LOG_LOCAL2
    Reserved for local use.
    LOG_LOCAL3
    Reserved for local use.
    LOG_LOCAL4
    Reserved for local use.
    LOG_LOCAL5
    Reserved for local use.
    LOG_LOCAL6
    Reserved for local use.
    LOG_LOCAL7
    Reserved for local use.

    The openlog() function shall set process attributes that affect subsequent calls to syslog(). The ident argument is a string that is prepended to every message. The logopt argument indicates logging options. Values for logopt are constructed by a bitwise-inclusive OR of zero or more of the following:

    LOG_PID
    Log the process ID with each message. This is useful for identifying specific processes.
    LOG_CONS
    Write messages to the system console if they cannot be sent to the logging facility. The syslog() function ensures that the process does not acquire the console as a controlling terminal in the process of writing the message.
    LOG_NDELAY
    Open the connection to the logging facility immediately. Normally the open is delayed until the first message is logged. This is useful for programs that need to manage the order in which file descriptors are allocated.
    LOG_ODELAY
    Delay open until syslog() is called.
    LOG_NOWAIT
    Do not wait for child processes that may have been created during the course of logging the message. This option should be used by processes that enable notification of child termination using SIGCHLD, since syslog() may otherwise block waiting for a child whose exit status has already been collected.

    The facility argument encodes a default facility to be assigned to all messages that do not have an explicit facility already encoded. The initial default facility is LOG_USER.

    The openlog() and syslog() functions may allocate a file descriptor. It is not necessary to call openlog() prior to calling syslog().

    The closelog() function shall close any open file descriptors allocated by previous calls to openlog() or syslog().

    The setlogmask() function shall set the log priority mask for the current process to maskpri and return the previous mask. If the maskpri argument is 0, the current log mask is not modified. Calls by the current process to syslog() with a priority not set in maskpri shall be rejected. The default log mask allows all priorities to be logged. A call to openlog() is not required prior to calling setlogmask().

    Symbolic constants for use as values of the logopt, facility, priority, and maskpri arguments are defined in the <syslog.h> header.  

    RETURN VALUE

    The setlogmask() function shall return the previous log priority mask. The closelog(), openlog(), and syslog() functions shall not return a value.  

    ERRORS

    No errors are defined.

    The following sections are informative.  

    EXAMPLES

     

    Using openlog()

    The following example causes subsequent calls to syslog() to log the process ID with each message, and to write messages to the system console if they cannot be sent to the logging facility.

    
    #include <syslog.h>
    
    
    char *ident = "Process demo";
    int logopt = LOG_PID | LOG_CONS;
    int facility = LOG_USER;
    ...
    openlog(ident, logopt, facility);
    
    
     

    Using setlogmask()

    The following example causes subsequent calls to syslog() to accept error messages, and to reject all other messages.

    
    #include <syslog.h>
    
    
    int result;
    int mask = LOG_MASK (LOG_ERR);
    ...
    result = setlogmask(mask);
    
    
     

    Using syslog

    The following example sends the message "This is a message" to the default logging facility, marking the message as an error message generated by random processes.

    
    #include <syslog.h>
    
    
    char *message = "This is a message";
    int priority = LOG_ERR | LOG_USER;
    ...
    syslog(priority, message);
    
    
     

    APPLICATION USAGE

    None.  

    RATIONALE

    None.  

    FUTURE DIRECTIONS

    None.
