- <title>Description</title>
-
- <para><function>sd_journal_print()</function> may be
- used to submit simple, plain text log entries to the
- system journal. The first argument is a priority
- value. This is followed by a format string and its
- parameters, similar to
- <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>printf</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- or
- <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>syslog</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. The
- priority value is one of
- <constant>LOG_EMERG</constant>,
- <constant>LOG_ALERT</constant>,
- <constant>LOG_CRIT</constant>,
- <constant>LOG_ERR</constant>,
- <constant>LOG_WARNING</constant>,
- <constant>LOG_NOTICE</constant>,
- <constant>LOG_INFO</constant>,
- <constant>LOG_DEBUG</constant>, as defined in
- <filename>syslog.h</filename>, see
- <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>syslog</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- for details. It is recommended to use this call to
- submit log messages in the application locale or system
- locale and in UTF-8 format, but no such restrictions
- are enforced.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_journal_printv()</function> is
- similar to <function>sd_journal_print()</function> but
- takes a variable argument list encapsulated in an
- object of type <varname>va_list</varname> (see
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>stdarg</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- for more information) instead of the format string. It
- is otherwise equivalent in behavior.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_journal_send()</function> may be
- used to submit structured log entries to the system
- journal. It takes a series of format strings, each
- immediately followed by their associated parameters,
- terminated by <constant>NULL</constant>. The strings passed should be of
- the format <literal>VARIABLE=value</literal>. The
- variable name must be in uppercase and consist only of
- characters, numbers and underscores, and may not begin
- with an underscore. (All assignments that do not
- follow this syntax will be ignored.) The value can be
- of any size and format. It is highly recommended to
- submit text strings formatted in the UTF-8 character
- encoding only, and submit binary fields only when
- formatting in UTF-8 strings is not sensible. A number
- of well known fields are defined, see
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.journal-fields</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- for details, but additional application defined fields
- may be used. A variable may be assigned more than one
- value per entry.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_journal_sendv()</function> is
- similar to <function>sd_journal_send()</function> but
- takes an array of <varname>struct iovec</varname> (as
- defined in <filename>uio.h</filename>, see
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>readv</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- for details) instead of the format string. Each
- structure should reference one field of the entry to
- submit. The second argument specifies the number of
- structures in the array.
- <function>sd_journal_sendv()</function> is
- particularly useful to submit binary objects to the
- journal where that is necessary.</para>
-
- <para><function>sd_journal_perror()</function> is a
- similar to
- <citerefentry><refentrytitle>perror</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
- and writes a message to the journal that consists of
- the passed string, suffixed with ": " and a human
- readable representation of the current error code
- stored in
- <citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>errno</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. If
- the message string is passed as <constant>NULL</constant> or empty string,
- only the error string representation will be written,
- prefixed with nothing. An additional journal field
- ERRNO= is included in the entry containing the numeric
- error code formatted as decimal string. The log
- priority used is <constant>LOG_ERR</constant> (3).</para>
-
- <para>Note that <function>sd_journal_send()</function>
- is a wrapper around
- <function>sd_journal_sendv()</function> to make it
- easier to use when only text strings shall be
- submitted. Also, the following two calls are
- mostly equivalent:</para>
