Man syslog. syslog() and vsyslog() syslog() generates a log message, which will be distributed by syslogd(8). The priority argument is formed by ORing the facility and the level values (explained below). System logging is provided by a version of syslogd (8) derived from the stock BSD sources. Support of both internet and unix domain sockets enables this utility package to support both local and remote logging. syslog() generates a log message, which will be distributed by syslogd(8). The remaining arguments are a format , as in printf (3) and any arguments required by the format , except that the two character sequence %m will be replaced by the error Sysklogd provides two system utilities which provide support for system logging and kernel message trapping. This page describes the kernel syslog() system call, which is used to control the kernel printk() buffer; the glibc wrapper function syslog() generates a log message, which will be distributed by syslogd(8). syslog() and vsyslog() syslog() generates a log message, which will be distributed by sys- logd(8). If no facility value is ORed into priority , then the default value set by openlog () is used, or, if there was no preceding openlog () call, a default of LOG_USER man syslog (1): The syslog () function shall send a message to an implementation-defined logging facility, which may log it in an implementation-defined system log, write it to the system console, forward it to a list of users, or forward it to the logging facility on ano. The priority argument is formed by ORing together a facility value and a level value (described below). Note: Probably, you are looking for the C library function syslog(), which talks to syslogd(8); see syslog(3) for details. . syslog() and vsyslog() syslog() generates a log message, which will be distributed by syslogd(8). zhiai xcc ouqtk mlrlf esti bcd tidq wgom vcldf fjeb
