<title>Description</title>
<para><filename>sd-daemon.h</filename> provide APIs
for new-style daemons, as implemented by the
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>systemd</refentrytitle><manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>
init system.</para>
<para>See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_listen_fds</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_notify</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,

<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_watchdog_enabled</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for more information about the functions
implemented. In addition to these functions, a couple
of logging prefixes are defined as macros:</para>
<programlisting>#define SD_EMERG "&lt;0&gt;" /* system is unusable */
#define SD_ALERT "&lt;1&gt;" /* action must be taken immediately */
#define SD_CRIT "&lt;2&gt;" /* critical conditions */
#define SD_ERR "&lt;3&gt;" /* error conditions */
#define SD_WARNING "&lt;4&gt;" /* warning conditions */
#define SD_NOTICE "&lt;5&gt;" /* normal but significant condition */
#define SD_INFO "&lt;6&gt;" /* informational */
#define SD_DEBUG "&lt;7&gt;" /* debug-level messages */</programlisting>
<para>These prefixes are intended to be used in
conjunction with stderr-based logging as implemented
by systemd. If a systemd service definition file is
configured with
<varname>StandardError=journal</varname>,
<varname>StandardError=syslog</varname> or
<varname>StandardError=kmsg</varname>, these prefixes
can be used to encode a log level in lines
printed. This is similar to the kernel
<function>printk()</function>-style logging. See
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>klogctl</refentrytitle><manvolnum>2</manvolnum></citerefentry>
for more information.</para>
<para>The log levels are identical to
<citerefentry project='man-pages'><refentrytitle>syslog</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>'s
log level system. To use these prefixes simply prefix
every line with one of these strings. A line that is
not prefixed will be logged at the default log level
SD_INFO.</para>
<example>
<title>Hello World</title>
<para>A daemon may log with the log level
NOTICE by issuing this call:</para>
<programlisting>fprintf(stderr, SD_NOTICE "Hello World!\n");</programlisting>
</example>
