<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_get_data()</function> gets the data object associated with a specific field
|
|
from the current journal entry. It takes four arguments: the journal context object, a string with the
|
|
field name to request, plus a pair of pointers to pointer/size variables where the data object and its
|
|
size shall be stored in. The field name should be an entry field name. Well-known field names are listed in
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd.journal-fields</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
but any field can be specified. The returned data is in a read-only memory map and is only valid until
|
|
the next invocation of <function>sd_journal_get_data()</function>,
|
|
<function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function>,
|
|
<function>sd_journal_enumerate_available_data()</function>, or when the read pointer is altered. Note
|
|
that the data returned will be prefixed with the field name and <literal>=</literal>. Also note that, by
|
|
default, data fields larger than 64K might get truncated to 64K. This threshold may be changed and turned
|
|
off with <function>sd_journal_set_data_threshold()</function> (see below).</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function> may be used
|
|
to iterate through all fields of the current entry. On each
|
|
invocation the data for the next field is returned. The order of
|
|
these fields is not defined. The data returned is in the same
|
|
format as with <function>sd_journal_get_data()</function> and also
|
|
follows the same life-time semantics.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_enumerate_available_data()</function> is similar to
|
|
<function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function>, but silently skips any fields which may be valid, but
|
|
are too large or not supported by current implementation.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_restart_data()</function> resets the
|
|
data enumeration index to the beginning of the entry. The next
|
|
invocation of <function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function>
|
|
will return the first field of the entry again.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that the <function>SD_JOURNAL_FOREACH_DATA()</function> macro may be used as a handy wrapper
|
|
around <function>sd_journal_restart_data()</function> and
|
|
<function>sd_journal_enumerate_available_data()</function>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that these functions will not work before
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_next</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
(or related call) has been called at least once, in order to
|
|
position the read pointer at a valid entry.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_set_data_threshold()</function> may be
|
|
used to change the data field size threshold for data returned by
|
|
<function>sd_journal_get_data()</function>,
|
|
<function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function> and
|
|
<function>sd_journal_enumerate_unique()</function>. This threshold
|
|
is a hint only: it indicates that the client program is interested
|
|
only in the initial parts of the data fields, up to the threshold
|
|
in size — but the library might still return larger data objects.
|
|
That means applications should not rely exclusively on this
|
|
setting to limit the size of the data fields returned, but need to
|
|
apply an explicit size limit on the returned data as well. This
|
|
threshold defaults to 64K by default. To retrieve the complete
|
|
data fields this threshold should be turned off by setting it to
|
|
0, so that the library always returns the complete data objects.
|
|
It is recommended to set this threshold as low as possible since
|
|
this relieves the library from having to decompress large
|
|
compressed data objects in full.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_get_data_threshold()</function> returns
|
|
the currently configured data field size threshold.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_journal_get_data()</function> returns 0 on success or a negative errno-style error
|
|
code. <function>sd_journal_enumerate_data()</function> and
|
|
<function>sd_journal_enumerate_available_data()</function> return a positive integer if the next field
|
|
has been read, 0 when no more fields remain, or a negative errno-style error code.
|
|
<function>sd_journal_restart_data()</function> doesn't return anything.
|
|
<function>sd_journal_set_data_threshold()</function> and <function>sd_journal_get_threshold()</function>
|
|
return 0 on success or a negative errno-style error code.</para>
