<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_add_match()</function> adds a match by
|
||
which to filter the entries of the journal file. 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>.
|
||
Parameter <parameter>data</parameter> must be of the form
|
||
<literal><replaceable>FIELD</replaceable>=<replaceable>value</replaceable></literal>,
|
||
where the <replaceable>FIELD</replaceable> 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 <replaceable>value</replaceable> part may be anything, including binary. Parameter
|
||
<parameter>size</parameter> specifies the number of bytes in <parameter>data</parameter>
|
||
(i.e. the length of <replaceable>FIELD</replaceable>, plus one, plus the length of
|
||
<replaceable>value</replaceable>). Parameter <parameter>size</parameter> may also be
|
||
specified as <constant>0</constant>, in which case <parameter>data</parameter>
|
||
must be a <constant>NUL</constant>-terminated string, and the bytes before the terminating
|
||
zero are used as the match.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>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.
|
||
If this call is invoked, all previously added matches since the
|
||
last invocation of
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function> or
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> are combined in
|
||
an OR with all matches added afterwards, until
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function> or
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> is invoked again
|
||
to begin the next OR or AND term. </para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> may be
|
||
used to insert a conjunction (i.e. logical AND) in the match list.
|
||
If this call is invoked, all previously added matches since the
|
||
last invocation of
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> are combined in
|
||
an AND with all matches added afterwards, until
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> is invoked again
|
||
to begin the next AND term. The combination of
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_match()</function>,
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function> and
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> may be used to
|
||
build complex search terms, even though full logical expressions
|
||
are not available. Note that
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_conjunction()</function> operates one
|
||
level 'higher' than
|
||
<function>sd_journal_add_disjunction()</function>. It is hence
|
||
possible to build an expression of AND terms, consisting of OR
|
||
terms, consisting of AND terms, consisting of OR terms of matches
|
||
(the latter OR expression is implicitly created for matches with
|
||
the same field name, see above).</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_journal_flush_matches()</function> may be used
|
||
to flush all matches, disjunction and conjunction terms again.
|
||
After this call all filtering is removed and all entries in the
|
||
journal will be iterated again.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>Note that filtering via matches only applies to the way the
|
||
journal is read, it has no effect on storage on disk.</para>

service at the four error log levels, plus all messages of the
