Matches applied with this call will filter what - can be iterated through and read from the journal file - via calls like - <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> - and - <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_data</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Matches - are of the form <literal>FIELD=value</literal>, where - the field part is a short uppercase string consisting - only of 0-9, A-Z and the underscore. It may not begin - with two underscores or be the empty string. The value - part may be any value, including binary. If a match is - applied only entries with this field set will be - iterated. Multiple matches may be active at the same - time: if they apply to different fields only entries - with both fields set like this will be iterated, if - they apply to the same fields only entries where the - field takes one of the specified values will be - iterated. Well known fields are documented in - <citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.journal-fields</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>. Whenever - a new match is added the current entry position is - reset, and - <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> (or a similar call) - needs to be called before entries can be read - again.</para> - - <para><function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function> - may be used to insert a disjunction (i.e. logical OR) - in the match list.
