slog2_parse_dynamic_buffer(), slog2_parse_static_buffer()

Parse a slogger2 buffer

Synopsis:

#include <slog2_parse.h>

int slog2_parse_dynamic_buffer( slog2_log_t log,
                                int buffer_index,
                                slog2_packet_info_t *packet_info,
                                slog2_packet_callback callback,
                                void *param );

int slog2_parse_static_buffer( slog2_log_t log,
                               int buffer_index,
                               slog2_packet_info_t *packet_info,
                               slog2_packet_callback callback,
                               void *param );

Arguments:

log
A handle previously returned by slog2_open_log().
buffer_index
The buffer index; indexes range from 0 to (slog2_log_info.num_buffers - 1).
packet_info
A pointer to a slog2_packet_info_t structure, which gets populated and passed to the callback.
callback
A function of type slog2_packet_callback:
typedef int (*slog2_packet_callback)( slog2_packet_info_t *__info,
                                      void *__payload,
                                      void *__param );

that's called to process each packet in the buffer; see below.

param
A pointer to additional data that you want to pass to the callback function.

Library:

libslog2parse

Use the -l slog2parse option to qcc to link against this library.

Description:

The slog2_parse_dynamic_buffer() and slog2_parse_static_buffer() functions parse through a live or static slogger2 buffer (respectively) from beginning to end, finding valid packets and calling the given callback function for each packet. If the callback returns a nonzero value, then these functions return immediately.

The prototype of the callback function is:

int callback( slog2_packet_info_t *info,
              void *payload,
              void *param );

The arguments are:

info
A pointer to a slog2_packet_info_t structure that describes the current packet.
payload
A pointer to the packet payload.
param
A pointer to any additional data that you want to pass to the callback.

The callback should return 0 on success, or a nonzero value on failure.

Returns:

0 on success, or -1 on failure.

Examples:

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/slog2.h>
#include <slog2_parse.h>

int my_callback (slog2_packet_info_t *info, void *payload, void *param)
{
        printf ("      Processing packet %d of size %d\n", info->sequence_number,
                info->data_size);
        switch (info->severity)
        {
           case SLOG2_SHUTDOWN: printf ("         SHUTDOWN: ");
                                break;
           case SLOG2_CRITICAL: printf ("         CRITICAL: ");
                                break;
           case SLOG2_ERROR:    printf ("         ERROR: ");
                                break;
           case SLOG2_WARNING:  printf ("         Warning: ");
                                break;

When run on the log produced by the example for slog2_register(), this program produces the following output:

Log information:
  Num buffers: 2
  Owner: 184341
  Buffer set name: slogger_two
  Verbosity: 5

Buffers:
  Buffer 0: size: 28672  Name: hi_rate_logging
      Processing packet 0 of size 63
         Info: Writing a formatted string into the buffer: ./root/slogger_two
      Processing packet 1 of size 43
         Info: Writing a constant string into the buffer.
      Processing packet 2 of size 37
         Warning: string:Hello world, some_number:5108
  Buffer 1: size: 4096  Name: lo_rate_logging

         Notice: This string will be logged.
