SD_JOURNAL_STREAM_FD(3) sd_journal_stream_fd SD_JOURNAL_STREAM_FD(3)
sd_journal_stream_fd - Create log stream file descriptor to the
journal
#include <systemd/sd-journal.h>
int sd_journal_stream_fd(const char *identifier, int priority,
int level_prefix);
sd_journal_stream_fd() may be used to create a log stream file
descriptor. Log messages written to this file descriptor as
simple newline-separated text strings are written to the journal.
This file descriptor can be used internally by applications or be
made standard output or standard error of other processes
executed.
sd_journal_stream_fd() takes a short program identifier string as
first argument, which will be written to the journal as
SYSLOG_IDENTIFIER= field for each log entry (see
systemd.journal-fields(7) for more information). The second
argument shall be the default priority level for all messages.
The priority level is one of LOG_EMERG, LOG_ALERT, LOG_CRIT,
LOG_ERR, LOG_WARNING, LOG_NOTICE, LOG_INFO, LOG_DEBUG, as defined
in syslog.h, see syslog(3) for details. The third argument is a
boolean: if true kernel-style log level prefixes (such as
SD_WARNING) are interpreted, see sd-daemon(3) for more
information.
It is recommended that applications log UTF-8 messages only with
this API, but this is not enforced.
Each invocation of sd_journal_stream_fd() allocates a new log
stream file descriptor, that is not shared with prior or later
invocations. The file descriptor is write-only (its reading
direction is shut down), and O_NONBLOCK is turned off initially.
The call returns a valid write-only file descriptor on success or
a negative errno-style error code.
sd_journal_stream_fd() is "async signal safe" in the meaning of
signal-safety(7).
All functions listed here are thread-safe and may be called in
parallel from multiple threads.
Functions described here are available as a shared library, which
can be compiled against and linked to with the
libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.

}
log = fdopen(fd, "w");
if (!log) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to create file object: %m\n");
close(fd);
return 1;
}
fprintf(log, "Hello World!\n");
fprintf(log, SD_WARNING "This is a warning!\n");
fclose(log);
return 0;
}
sd_journal_stream_fd() was added in version 187.
