This location is represented by a struct __sourceloc, * which is passed by value to the serval_logf() function and its ilk. * * A struct __sourceloc value is generated by the __HERE__ macro, which uses * the cpp(1) built-in macros __FILE__, __LINE__ and __FUNCTION__ to generate * its elements. The __NOWHERE__ macro creates a struct __sourceloc with NULL * and zero fields. If you pass __NOWHERE__ to serval_logf(), it will omit * location information from the log line. The __NOWHENCE__ macro creates a * special source __sourceloc that logging primitives should interpret to * suppress the output of the usual source-code location information. * * Sometimes, a function wants to log a message as though its caller were the * origin of the message. This is typical of "primitive" type functions that * are used in many places throughout the code, and whose internal workings are * generally well-debugged and of little interest for ongoing development. In * this case, the code pattern is to declare the underscore-prefixed function * as taking a struct __sourceloc argument, and a macro that invokes the * function, passing the __HERE__ macro for that argument: * * int _primitive(struct __sourceloc __whence, int arg1, const char *arg2); * * #define primitive(arg1, arg2) _primitive(__HERE__, (arg1), (arg2)) * * Within the _primitive() function, the standard logging macros defined below * (WHYF(), WARNF(), INFOF(), DEBUGF() etc.) will use the __whence argument * instead of __HERE__ when logging their message. This is achieved using a * dirty trick: in the function *definition*, the __sourceloc argument MUST be * named '__whence'. The trick is that there is a global variable called * '__whence' which always contains the value of __NOWHERE__. If that variable * is lexically obscured by a local variable or parameter called '__whence', * then the DEBUG macros will use __whence, otherwise they will use __HERE__. * This logic is encapsulated in the __WHENCE__ macro, to make it available to * for other purposes. For example, a better definition of the primitive() * macro above would be: * * #define primitive(arg1, arg2) _primitive(__WHENCE__, (arg1), (arg2)) * * Then, if it were invoked from within another primitive-type function, it * would log messages with the __sourceloc of that primitive's caller, which is * probably the most useful for diagnosis. * * @author Andrew Bettison */ struct __sourceloc { const char *file; unsigned int line; const char *function; }; extern const struct __sourceloc __whence; // see above #define __HERE__ ((struct __sourceloc){ .file = __FILE__, .line = __LINE__, .function = __FUNCTION__ }) #define __NOWHERE__ ((struct __sourceloc){ .file = NULL, .line = 0, .function = NULL }) #define __NOWHENCE__ ((struct __sourceloc){ .file = "", .line = 0, .function = NULL }) #define __WHENCE__ (__whence.file ? __whence : __HERE__) void xprint_sourceloc(XPRINTF, struct __sourceloc); #define alloca_str_sourceloc(s) (sourceloc_tostr(alloca(sourceloc_tostr_len(s) + 1), (s))) extern char *sourceloc_tostr(char *dstStr, ssize_t dstBufSiz, struct __sourceloc); extern size_t sourceloc_tostr_len(struct __sourceloc); #endif // __SERVAL_DNA__WHENCE_H
