DESCRIPTION
|
||
liblog represents an interface to the volatile Android Logging system
|
||
for NDK (Native) applications and libraries. Interfaces for either
|
||
writing or reading logs. The log buffers are divided up in Main, Sys‐
|
||
tem, Radio and Events sub-logs.
|
||
|
||
The logging interfaces are a series of macros, all of which can be
|
||
overridden individually in order to control the verbosity of the appli‐
|
||
cation or library. [ASR]LOG[VDIWE] calls are used to log to BAsic,
|
||
System or Radio sub-logs in either the Verbose, Debug, Info, Warning or
|
||
Error priorities. [ASR]LOG[VDIWE]_IF calls are used to perform thus
|
||
based on a condition being true. IF_ALOG[VDIWE] calls are true if the
|
||
current LOG_TAG is enabled at the specified priority. LOG_ALWAYS_FATAL
|
||
is used to ALOG a message, then kill the process. LOG_FATAL call is a
|
||
variant of LOG_ALWAYS_FATAL, only enabled in engineering, and not
|
||
release builds. ALOG_ASSERT is used to ALOG a message if the condition
|
||
is false; the condition is part of the logged message.
|
||
LOG_EVENT_(INT|LONG) is used to drop binary content into the Events
|
||
sub-log.
|
||
|
||
The log reading interfaces permit opening the logs either singly or
|
||
multiply, retrieving a log entry at a time in time sorted order,
|
||
optionally limited to a specific pid and tail of the log(s) and finally
|
||
a call closing the logs. A single log can be opened with android_log‐
|
||
ger_list_open; or multiple logs can be opened with android_log‐
|
||
ger_list_alloc, calling in turn the android_logger_open for each log
|
||
id. Each entry can be retrieved with android_logger_list_read. The
|
||
log(s) can be closed with android_logger_list_free. The logs should be
|
||
opened with an ANDROID_LOG_RDONLY mode. ANDROID_LOG_NONBLOCK mode
|
||
will report when the log reading is done with an EAGAIN error return
|
||
code, otherwise the android_logger_list_read call will block for new
|
||
entries.
|
||
|
||
The ANDROID_LOG_WRAP mode flag to the android_logger_list_alloc_time
|
||
signals logd to quiesce the reader until the buffer is about to prune
|
||
at the start time then proceed to dumping content.
|
||
|
||
The ANDROID_LOG_PSTORE mode flag to the android_logger_open is used to
|
||
switch from the active logs to the persistent logs from before the last
|
||
reboot.
|
||
|
||
The value returned by android_logger_open can be used as a parameter to
|
||
the android_logger_clear function to empty the sub-log. It is recom‐
|
||
mended to only open log ANDROID_LOG_WRONLY in that case.
|
||
|
||
The value returned by android_logger_open can be used as a parameter to
|
||
the android_logger_get_log_(size|readable_size|version) to retrieve the
|
||
sub-log maximum size, readable size and log buffer format protocol ver‐
|
||
sion respectively. android_logger_get_id returns the id that was used
|
||
when opening the sub-log. It is recommended to open the log
|
||
ANDROID_LOG_RDONLY in these cases.
|
||
|
||
ERRORS
|
||
If messages fail, a negative error code will be returned to the caller.
|
||
|
||
The -ENOTCONN return code indicates that the logger daemon is stopped.
|
||
|
||
The -EBADF return code indicates that the log access point can not be
|
||
opened, or the log buffer id is out of range.
|
||
|
||
For the -EAGAIN return code, this means that the logging message was
|
||
temporarily backed-up either because of Denial Of Service (DOS) logging
|
||
pressure from some chatty application or service in the Android system,
|
||
or if too small of a value is set in /proc/sys/net/unix/max_dgram_qlen.
|
||
To aid in diagnosing the occurence of this, a binary event from liblog
|
||
will be sent to the log daemon once a new message can get through
|
||
indicating how many messages were dropped as a result. Please take
|
||
action to resolve the structural problems at the source.
|
||
|
||
It is generally not advised for the caller to retry the -EAGAIN return
|
||
code as this will only make the problem(s) worse and cause your
|
||
application to temporarily drop to the logger daemon priority, BATCH
|
||
scheduling policy and background task cgroup. If you require a group of
|
||
messages to be passed atomically, merge them into one message with
|
||
embedded newlines to the maximum length LOGGER_ENTRY_MAX_PAYLOAD.
|
||
|
||
Other return codes from writing operation can be returned. Since the
|
||
library retries on EINTR, -EINTR should never be returned.
