NAME

rpma_log_set_threshold - set the logging threshold level

SYNOPSIS

      #include <librpma.h>
      int rpma_log_set_threshold(enum rpma_log_threshold threshold,
                      enum rpma_log_level level);
      enum rpma_log_level {

RPMA_LOG_DISABLED,

RPMA_LOG_LEVEL_FATAL,

RPMA_LOG_LEVEL_ERROR,

RPMA_LOG_LEVEL_WARNING,

RPMA_LOG_LEVEL_NOTICE,

RPMA_LOG_LEVEL_INFO,

RPMA_LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG,

};

enum rpma_log_threshold {

RPMA_LOG_THRESHOLD,

RPMA_LOG_THRESHOLD_AUX,

RPMA_LOG_THRESHOLD_MAX

};

DESCRIPTION

rpma_log_set_threshold() sets the logging threshold level.

Available thresholds are:

  • RPMA_LOG_THRESHOLD - the main threshold used to filter out undesired logging messages. Messages on a higher level than the primary threshold level are ignored. RPMA_LOG_DISABLED shall be used to suppress logging. The default value is RPMA_LOG_WARNING.
  • RPMA_LOG_THRESHOLD_AUX - the auxiliary threshold intended for use inside the logging function (please see rpma_log_get_threshold(3)). The logging function may or may not take this threshold into consideration. The default value is RPMA_LOG_DISABLED.

Available threshold levels are defined by enum rpma_log_level:

  • RPMA_LOG_DISABLED - all messages will be suppressed
  • RPMA_LOG_LEVEL_FATAL - an error that causes the library to stop working immediately
  • RPMA_LOG_LEVEL_ERROR - an error that causes the library to stop working properly
  • RPMA_LOG_LEVEL_WARNING - an error that could be handled in the upper level
  • RPMA_LOG_LEVEL_NOTICE - non-massive info mainly related to public API function completions e.g. connection established
  • RPMA_LOG_LEVEL_INFO - massive info e.g. every write operation indication
  • RPMA_LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG - debug info e.g. write operation dump

THE DEFAULT LOGGING FUNCTION

The default logging function writes messages to syslog(3) and to stderr(3), where syslog(3) is the primary destination (RPMA_LOG_THRESHOLD applies) whereas stderr(3) is the secondary destination (RPMA_LOG_THRESHOLD_AUX applies).

RETURN VALUE

rpma_log_syslog_set_threshold() function returns 0 on success or a negative error code on failure.

ERRORS

rpma_log_set_threshold() can fail with the following errors:
•
RPMA_E_INVAL - threshold is not RPMA_LOG_THRESHOLD nor

RPMA_LOG_THRESHOLD_AUX

  • RPMA_E_INVAL - level is not a value defined by enum rpma_log_level type
  • RPMA_E_AGAIN - a temporary error occurred, the retry may fix the problem
