That behaviour would fit better with service managers that take care of process daemonization / pid tracking themselves and direct the service's stderr to system log. If log message duplication is desired, we can add a command line argument to enforce that. To produce messages of different priorities, we can prepend "<%d>" to each log message. > + else if (log_priority < 0) { > + vfprintf(stderr, fmt, ap); > + fprintf(stderr, "\n"); > + } > + va_end(ap); > +} > diff --git a/hasher-priv/logging.h b/hasher-priv/logging.h > new file mode 100644 > index 0000000..9d28fc8 > --- /dev/null > +++ b/hasher-priv/logging.h > @@ -0,0 +1,55 @@ > + > +/* > + Copyright (C) 2019 Alexey Gladkov > + > + A logging functions for the hasher-privd program. > + > + SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0-or-later > +*/ > + > +#ifndef _LOGGING_H_ > +#define _LOGGING_H_ > + > +#include > +#include > + > +void logging_init(int, int); > +void logging_close(void); > +int logging_level(const char *lvl) __attribute__((nonnull(1))); > + > +void message(int priority, const char *fmt, ...) __attribute__((format(printf, 2, 3))); > + > +#define fatal(format, arg...) \ > + do { \ > + message(LOG_CRIT, \ > + "%s(%d): %s: " format, \ > + __FILE__, __LINE__, __FUNCTION__, \ > + ##arg); \ > + exit(EXIT_FAILURE); \ > + } while (0) > + > +#define err(format, arg...) \ > + do { \ > + message(LOG_ERR, \ > + "%s(%d): %s: " format, \ > + __FILE__, __LINE__, __FUNCTION__, \ > + ##arg); \ > + } while (0) > + > +#define info(format, arg...) \ > + do { \ > + message(LOG_INFO, \ > + "%s(%d): %s: " format, \ > + __FILE__, __LINE__, __FUNCTION__, \ > + ##arg); \ > + } while (0) > + > +#define dbg(format, arg...) \ > + do { \ > + message(LOG_DEBUG, \ > + "%s(%d): %s: " format, \ > + __FILE__, __LINE__, __FUNCTION__, \ > + ##arg); \ > + } while (0) > + > +#endif /* _LOGGING_H_ */
