Log a printf-style string in a slog2 buffer
Synopsis:
#include <slog2.h>
int slog2fa( slog2_buffer_t buffer,
uint16_t code,
uint8_t severity,
const char* format, ... );
Arguments:
- buffer
- The handle of the buffer you want to log the message in, or NULL
to use the default buffer that you specified earlier with
slog2_set_default_buffer().
- code
- A user-specified code that you want to be associated with the message.
The slog2 system doesn't interpret this code in any way.
- severity
- The severity level of this log item; one of:
- SLOG2_SHUTDOWN
- SLOG2_CRITICAL
- SLOG2_ERROR
- SLOG2_WARNING
- SLOG2_NOTICE
- SLOG2_INFO
- SLOG2_DEBUG1
- SLOG2_DEBUG2
For more information, see the entry for
slog2_register().
- format
- A
printf-formatted
character string used to define the log message.
- Additional arguments
- An argument vector that specifies the arguments for the format string.
You must use the appropriate SLOG2_FA_*() helper macro for parameters,
as described below.
The last parameter in the vector must be SLOG2_FA_END.
Library:
libslog2

Description:
The slog2fa() function a printf-style format string along with
its arguments specified in the argument vector.
This function uses special formatting macros to ensure that va_args() doesn't trigger
any interrupts.
The format string isn't decoded before writing; it must be decoded during the time of the read.
Note:
If you're specifying a string with %s, the size must include the NULL character.
You can use the following macros to build the parameters to slog2fa:
- SLOG2_FA_UNSIGNED( x )
- SLOG2_FA_SIGNED( x )
- SLOG2_FA_CHAR( x )
- SLOG2_FA_FLOAT( x )
- SLOG2_FA_DOUBLE( x )
- SLOG2_FA_STRING( x )
- SLOG2_FA_END — you must end the list with this macro
For example:
int8_t some_number = -1;
slog2fa( ..., "string:%s, some_number:%d", SLOG2_FA_STRING( "Hello world" ),
SLOG2_FA_SIGNED( some_number ),
SLOG2_FA_END );
Returns:
0 on success, or -1 if an error occurred.

Caveats:
Don't use double or float arguments in an interrupt handler,
unless your code is compiled to use software floating-point emulation.
