This part of the copyright blurb stems from the GPL use recommendations: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.en.html The concept appears to originate in times where version control was per file, instead of per tree, and was a way to glue the files together. Ultimately, we nowadays don't live in that world anymore, and this information is entirely useless anyway, as people are very welcome to copy these files into any projects they like, and they shouldn't have to change bits that are part of our copyright header for that. hence, let's just get rid of this old cruft, and shorten our codebase a bit.

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><filename>sd-journal.h</filename> provides APIs to submit
|
|
and query log entries. The APIs exposed act both as client for the
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd-journald.service</refentrytitle><manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
journal service and as parser for the journal files on disk.

<title>Thread safety</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Functions that operate on the <structname>sd_journal</structname> object are thread
|
|
agnostic — given <structname>sd_journal</structname> pointer may only be used from one thread at
|
|
a time, but multiple threads may use multiple such objects safely. Other functions —
|
|
those that are used to send entries to the journal, like
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_print</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
and similar, or those that are used to retrieve global information like
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_stream_fd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
and
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_journal_get_catalog_for_message_id</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
— are thread-safe and may be called from multiple threads in parallel.</para>
