61 \section log_overview 1. Introduction
63 This module is in charge of handling the log messages of every SimGrid
64 program. The main design goal are:
66 - <b>configurability</b>: the user can choose <i>at runtime</i> what messages to show and
67 what to hide, as well as how messages get displayed.
68 - <b>ease of use</b>: both to the programmer (using preprocessor macros black magic)
69 and to the user (with command line options)
70 - <b>performances</b>: logging shouldn't slow down the program when turned off, for example
71 - deal with <b>distributed settings</b>: SimGrid programs are [often] distributed ones,
72 and the logging mechanism allows to syndicate each and every log source into the same place.
73 At least, its design would allow to, once we write the last missing pieces
75 There is three main concepts in SimGrid's logging mechanism: <i>category</i>,
76 <i>priority</i> and <i>appender</i>. These three concepts work together to
77 enable developers to log messages according to message type and priority, and
78 to control at runtime how these messages are formatted and where they are
81 \subsection log_cat 1.1 Category hierarchy
83 The first and foremost advantage of any logging API over plain printf()
84 resides in its ability to disable certain log statements while allowing
85 others to print unhindered. This capability assumes that the logging space,
86 that is, the space of all possible logging statements, is categorized
87 according to some developer-chosen criteria.
89 This observation led to choosing category as the central concept of the
90 system. In a certain sense, they can be considered as logging topics or
93 \subsection log_pri 1.2 Logging priorities
95 The user can naturally declare interest into this or that logging category, but
96 he also can specify the desired level of details for each of them. This is
97 controlled by the <i>priority</i> concept (which should maybe be renamed to
100 Empirically, the user can specify that he wants to see every debugging message
101 of MSG while only being interested into the messages at level "error" or
102 higher about the XBT internals.
104 \subsection log_app 1.3 Message appenders
106 The message appenders are the elements in charge of actually displaying the
107 message to the user. For now, only two appenders exist: the default one prints
108 stuff on stderr while it is possible to create appenders printing to a specific
111 Other are planed (such as the one sending everything to a remote server,
112 or the one using only a fixed amount of lines in a file, and rotating content on
113 need). One day, for sure ;)
115 \subsection log_lay 1.4 Message layouts
117 The message layouts are the elements in charge of choosing how each message
118 will look like. Their result is a string which is then passed to the appender
119 attached to the category to be displayed.
121 For now, there is two layouts: The simple one, which is good for most cases,
122 and another one allowing users to specify the format they want.
123 \ref log_use_conf provides more info on this.
125 \subsection log_hist 1.5 History of this module
127 Historically, this module is an adaptation of the log4c project, which is dead
128 upstream, and which I was given the permission to fork under the LGPL licence
129 by the log4c's authors. The log4c project itself was loosely based on the
130 Apache project's Log4J, which also inspired Log4CC, Log4py and so on. Our work
131 differs somehow from these projects anyway, because the C programming language
132 is not object oriented.
134 \section log_API 2. Programmer interface
136 \subsection log_API_cat 2.1 Constructing the category hierarchy
138 Every category is declared by providing a name and an optional
139 parent. If no parent is explicitly named, the root category, LOG_ROOT_CAT is
140 the category's parent.
142 A category is created by a macro call at the top level of a file. A
143 category can be created with any one of the following macros:
145 - \ref XBT_LOG_NEW_CATEGORY(MyCat,desc); Create a new root
146 - \ref XBT_LOG_NEW_SUBCATEGORY(MyCat, ParentCat,desc);
147 Create a new category being child of the category ParentCat
148 - \ref XBT_LOG_NEW_DEFAULT_CATEGORY(MyCat,desc);
149 Like XBT_LOG_NEW_CATEGORY, but the new category is the default one
151 - \ref XBT_LOG_NEW_DEFAULT_SUBCATEGORY(MyCat, ParentCat,desc);
152 Like XBT_LOG_NEW_SUBCATEGORY, but the new category is the default one
155 The parent cat can be defined in the same file or in another file (in
156 which case you want to use the \ref XBT_LOG_EXTERNAL_CATEGORY macro to make
157 it visible in the current file), but each category may have only one
158 definition. Likewise, you can use a category defined in another file as
159 default one using \ref XBT_LOG_EXTERNAL_DEFAULT_CATEGORY
161 Typically, there will be a Category for each module and sub-module, so you
162 can independently control logging for each module.
164 For a list of all existing categories, please refer to the \ref XBT_log_cats
165 section. This file is generated automatically from the SimGrid source code, so
166 it should be complete and accurate.
168 \section log_API_pri 2.2 Declaring message priority
170 A category may be assigned a threshold priority. The set of priorities are
171 defined by the \ref e_xbt_log_priority_t enum. All logging request under
172 this priority will be discarded.
174 If a given category is not assigned a threshold priority, then it inherits
175 one from its closest ancestor with an assigned threshold. To ensure that all
176 categories can eventually inherit a threshold, the root category always has
177 an assigned threshold priority.
179 Logging requests are made by invoking a logging macro on a category. All of
180 the macros have a printf-style format string followed by arguments. If you
181 compile with the -Wall option, gcc will warn you for unmatched arguments, ie
182 when you pass a pointer to a string where an integer was specified by the
183 format. This is usually a good idea.
185 Here is an example of the most basic type of macro. This is a logging
186 request with priority <i>warning</i>.
188 <code>XBT_CLOG(MyCat, xbt_log_priority_warning, "Values are: %d and '%s'", 5,
191 A logging request is said to be enabled if its priority is higher than or
192 equal to the threshold priority of its category. Otherwise, the request is
193 said to be disabled. A category without an assigned priority will inherit
194 one from the hierarchy.
196 It is possible to use any non-negative integer as a priority. If, as in the
197 example, one of the standard priorities is used, then there is a convenience
198 macro that is typically used instead. For example, the above example is
199 equivalent to the shorter:
201 <code>XBT_CWARN(MyCat, "Values are: %d and '%s'", 5, "oops");</code>
203 \section log_API_isenabled 2.3 Checking if a particular category/priority is enabled
205 It is sometimes useful to check whether a particular category is
206 enabled at a particular priority. One example is when you want to do
207 some extra computation to prepare a nice debugging message. There is
208 no use of doing so if the message won't be used afterward because
209 debugging is turned off.
211 Doing so is extremely easy, thanks to the XBT_LOG_ISENABLED(category, priority).
213 \section log_API_subcat 2.4 Using a default category (the easy interface)
215 If \ref XBT_LOG_NEW_DEFAULT_SUBCATEGORY(MyCat, Parent) or
216 \ref XBT_LOG_NEW_DEFAULT_CATEGORY(MyCat) is used to create the
217 category, then the even shorter form can be used:
219 <code>XBT_WARN("Values are: %s and '%d'", 5, "oops");</code>
221 Only one default category can be created per file, though multiple
222 non-defaults can be created and used.
224 \section log_API_easy 2.5 Putting all together: the easy interface
226 First of all, each module should register its own category into the categories
227 tree using \ref XBT_LOG_NEW_DEFAULT_SUBCATEGORY.
229 Then, logging should be done with the #XBT_DEBUG, #XBT_VERB, #XBT_INFO,
230 #XBT_WARN, #XBT_ERROR and #XBT_CRITICAL macros.
232 Under GCC, these macro check there arguments the same way than printf does. So,
233 if you compile with -Wall, the following code will issue a warning:
234 <code>XBT_DEBUG("Found %s (id %d)", some_string, a_double)</code>
236 If you want to specify the category to log onto (for example because you
237 have more than one category per file, add a C before the name of the log
238 producing macro (ie, use #XBT_CDEBUG, #XBT_CVERB, #XBT_CINFO, #XBT_CWARN,
239 #XBT_CERROR and #XBT_CCRITICAL and friends), and pass the category name as
242 The TRACE priority is not used the same way than the other. You should use
243 the #XBT_IN, #XBT_OUT and #XBT_HERE macros instead.
245 \section log_API_example 2.6 Example of use
247 Here is a more complete example:
252 / * create a category and a default subcategory * /
253 XBT_LOG_NEW_CATEGORY(VSS);
254 XBT_LOG_NEW_DEFAULT_SUBCATEGORY(SA, VSS);
257 / * Now set the parent's priority. (the string would typically be a runtime option) * /
258 xbt_log_control_set("SA.thresh:3");
260 / * This request is enabled, because WARNING >= INFO. * /
261 XBT_CWARN(VSS, "Low fuel level.");
263 / * This request is disabled, because DEBUG < INFO. * /
264 XBT_CDEBUG(VSS, "Starting search for nearest gas station.");
266 / * The default category SA inherits its priority from VSS. Thus,
267 the following request is enabled because INFO >= INFO. * /
268 XBT_INFO("Located nearest gas station.");
270 / * This request is disabled, because DEBUG < INFO. * /
271 XBT_DEBUG("Exiting gas station search");
275 \section log_user 3. User interface
277 \section log_use_conf 3.1 Configuration
279 Although rarely done, it is possible to configure the logs during
280 program initialization by invoking the xbt_log_control_set() method
281 manually. A more conventional way is to use the --log command line
282 argument. xbt_init() (called by MSG_init() and friends)
283 checks and deals properly with such arguments.
285 \subsection log_use_conf_thres 3.1.1 Threshold configuration
287 The most common setting is to control which logging event will get
288 displayed by setting a threshold to each category through the
289 <tt>threshold</tt> keyword.
291 For example, \verbatim --log=root.threshold:debug\endverbatim will make
292 SimGrid <b>extremely</b> verbose while \verbatim
293 --log=root.thres:critical\endverbatim should shut it almost
296 Note that the <tt>threshold</tt> keyword can be abbreviated here. For example,
297 all the following notations have the same result.
299 --log=root.threshold:debug
300 --log=root.threshol:debug
301 --log=root.thresho:debug
302 --log=root.thresh:debug
303 --log=root.thres:debug
304 --log=root.thre:debug
308 --log=root.:debug <--- That's obviously really ugly, but it actually works.
311 The full list of recognized thresholds is the following:
313 - trace: enter and return of some functions
314 - debug: crufty output
315 - verbose: verbose output for the user wanting more
316 - info: output about the regular functionning
317 - warning: minor issue encountered
318 - error: issue encountered
319 - critical: major issue encountered
321 \subsection log_use_conf_multi 3.1.2 Passing several settings
323 You can provide several of those arguments to change the setting of several
324 categories, they will be applied from left to right. So,
325 \verbatim --log="root.thres:debug root.thres:critical"\endverbatim should
326 disable almost any logging.
328 Note that the quotes on above line are mandatory because there is a space in
329 the argument, so we are protecting ourselves from the shell, not from SimGrid.
330 We could also reach the same effect with this:
331 \verbatim --log=root.thres:debug --log=root.thres:critical\endverbatim
333 \subsection log_use_conf_fmt 3.1.3 Format configuration
335 As with SimGrid 3.3, it is possible to control the format of log
336 messages. This is done through the <tt>fmt</tt> keyword. For example,
337 \verbatim --log=root.fmt:%m\endverbatim reduces the output to the
338 user-message only, removing any decoration such as the date, or the
339 process ID, everything.
341 Here are the existing format directives:
344 - %%n: platform-dependent line separator (LOG4J compatible)
345 - %%e: plain old space (SimGrid extension)
347 - %%m: user-provided message
349 - %%c: Category name (LOG4J compatible)
350 - %%p: Priority name (LOG4J compatible)
352 - %%h: Hostname (SimGrid extension)
353 - %%P: Process name (SimGrid extension -- note that with SMPI this is the integer value of the process rank)
354 - %%t: Thread "name" (LOG4J compatible -- actually the address of the thread in memory)
355 - %%i: Process PID (SimGrid extension -- this is a 'i' as in 'i'dea)
357 - %%F: file name where the log event was raised (LOG4J compatible)
358 - %%l: location where the log event was raised (LOG4J compatible, like '%%F:%%L' -- this is a l as in 'l'etter)
359 - %%L: line number where the log event was raised (LOG4J compatible)
360 - %%M: function name (LOG4J compatible -- called method name here of course).
361 Defined only when using gcc because there is no __FUNCTION__ elsewhere.
363 - %%b: full backtrace (Called %%throwable in LOG4J).
364 Defined only under windows or when using the GNU libc because backtrace() is not defined
365 elsewhere, and we only have a fallback for windows boxes, not mac ones for example.
366 - %%B: short backtrace (only the first line of the %%b).
367 Called %%throwable{short} in LOG4J; defined where %%b is.
369 - %%d: date (UNIX-like epoch)
370 - %%r: application age (time elapsed since the beginning of the application)
373 If you want to mimic the simple layout with the format one, you would use this
374 format: '[%%h:%%i:(%%i) %%r] %%l: [%%c/%%p] %%m%%n'. This is not completely correct
375 because the simple layout do not display the message location for messages at
376 priority INFO (thus, the fmt is '[%%h:%%i:(%%i) %%r] [%%c/%%p] %%m%%n' in this
377 case). Moreover, if there is no process name (ie, messages coming from the
378 library itself, or test programs doing strange things) do not display the
379 process identity (thus, fmt is '[%%r] %%l: [%%c/%%p] %%m%%n' in that case, and '[%%r]
380 [%%c/%%p] %%m%%n' if they are at priority INFO).
382 For now, there is only two format modifiers: the precision and the
383 width fields. You can for example specify %.4r to get the application
384 age with 4 numbers after the radix, or %15p to get the process name
385 on 15 columns. Finally, you can specify %10.6r to get the time on at
386 most 10 columns, with 6 numbers after the radix.
388 Note that when specifying the width, it is filled with spaces. That
389 is to say that for example %5r in your format is converted to "% 5f"
390 for printf (note the extra space); there is no way to fill the empty
391 columns with 0 (ie, pass "%05f" to printf). Another limitation is
392 that you cannot set specific layouts to the several priorities.
394 \subsection log_use_conf_app 3.1.4 Category appender
396 As with SimGrid 3.3, it is possible to control the appender of log
397 messages. This is done through the <tt>app</tt> keyword. For example,
398 \verbatim --log=root.app:file:mylogfile\endverbatim redirects the output
399 to the file mylogfile.
401 Any appender setup this way have its own layout format (simple one by default),
402 so you may have to change it too afterward. Moreover, the additivity of the log category
403 is also set to false to prevent log event displayed by this appender to "leak" to any other
404 appender higher in the hierarchy. If it is not what you wanted, you can naturally change it
407 \subsection log_use_conf_add 3.1.5 Category additivity
409 The <tt>add</tt> keyword allows to specify the additivity of a
410 category (see \ref log_in_app). '0', '1', 'no', 'yes', 'on'
411 and 'off' are all valid values, with 'yes' as default.
413 The following example resets the additivity of the xbt category to true (which is its default value).
414 \verbatim --log=xbt.add:yes\endverbatim
416 \section log_use_misc 3.2 Misc and Caveats
418 - Do not use any of the macros that start with '_'.
419 - Log4J has a 'rolling file appender' which you can select with a run-time
420 option and specify the max file size. This would be a nice default for
421 non-kernel applications.
422 - Careful, category names are global variables.
423 - When writing a log format, you often want to use spaces. If you don't
424 protect these spaces, they are used as configuration elements separators.
425 For example, if you want to remove the date from the logs, you want to pass the following
426 argument on the command line. The outer quotes are here to protect the string from the shell
427 interpretation while the inner ones are there to prevent simgrid from splitting the string
428 in several log parameters (that would be invalid).
429 \verbatim --log="'root.fmt:%l: [%p/%c]: %m%n'"\endverbatim
430 Another option is to use the SimGrid-specific format directive \%e for
431 spaces, like in the following.
432 \verbatim --log="root.fmt:%l:%e[%p/%c]:%e%m%n"\endverbatim
434 \section log_internals 4. Internal considerations
436 This module is a mess of macro black magic, and when it goes wrong,
437 SimGrid studently loose its ability to explain its problems. When
438 messing around this module, I often find useful to define
439 XBT_LOG_MAYDAY (which turns it back to good old printf) for the time
440 of finding what's going wrong. But things are quite verbose when
441 everything is enabled...
443 \section log_in_perf 4.1 Performance
445 Except for the first invocation of a given category, a disabled logging request
446 requires an a single comparison of a static variable to a constant.
448 There is also compile time constant, \ref XBT_LOG_STATIC_THRESHOLD, which
449 causes all logging requests with a lower priority to be optimized to 0 cost
450 by the compiler. By setting it to xbt_log_priority_infinite, all logging
451 requests are statically disabled at compile time and cost nothing. Released executables
452 <i>might</i> be compiled with (note that it will prevent users to debug their problems)
453 \verbatim-DXBT_LOG_STATIC_THRESHOLD=xbt_log_priority_infinite\endverbatim
455 Compiling with the \verbatim-DNLOG\endverbatim option disables all logging
456 requests at compilation time while the \verbatim-DNDEBUG\endverbatim disables
457 the requests of priority below INFO.
459 \todo Logging performance *may* be improved further by improving the message
460 propagation from appender to appender in the category tree.
462 \section log_in_app 4.2 Appenders
464 Each category has an optional appender. An appender is a pointer to a
465 structure which starts with a pointer to a do_append() function. do_append()
466 prints a message to a log.
468 When a category is passed a message by one of the logging macros, the
469 category performs the following actions:
471 - if the category has an appender, the message is passed to the
472 appender's do_append() function,
473 - if additivity is true for the category, the message is passed to
474 the category's parent. Additivity is true by default, and can be
475 controlled by xbt_log_additivity_set() or something like --log=root.add:1 (see \ref log_use_conf_add).
476 Also, when you add an appender to a category, its additivity is automatically turned to off.
477 Turn it back on afterward if it is not what you wanted.
479 By default, only the root category have an appender, and any other category has
480 its additivity set to true. This causes all messages to be logged by the root
483 The default appender function currently prints to stderr, and the only other
484 existing one writes to the specified file. More would be needed, like the one
485 able to send the logs to a remote dedicated server.
486 This is on our TODO list for quite a while now, but your help would be
487 welcome here, too. */
