/**
 * @file qblog.h
 * The logging API provides four main parts (basics, filtering, threading & blackbox).
 *
 * The idea behind this logging system is not to be prescriptive but to provide a
 * set of tools to help the developer achieve what they want quickly and easily.
 *
 * @par Basic logging API.
 * Call qb_log() to generate a log message. Then to write the message
 * somewhere meaningful call qb_log_ctl() to configure the targets.
 *
 * Simplest possible use:
 * @code
 * main() {
 *	qb_log_init("simple-log", LOG_DAEMON, LOG_INFO);
 * 	// ...
 *	qb_log(LOG_WARNING, "watch out");
 * 	// ...
 *	qb_log_fini();
 * }
 * @endcode
 *
 * @par Configuring log targets.
 * A log target can be syslog, stderr, the blackbox, stdout, or a text file.
 * By default only syslog is enabled.
 *
 * To enable a target do the following:
 * @code
 *	qb_log_ctl(QB_LOG_BLACKBOX, QB_LOG_CONF_ENABLED, QB_TRUE);
 * @endcode
 *
 * syslog, stderr, the blackbox, and stdout are static (they don't need
 * to be created, just enabled or disabled). However you can open multiple
 * logfiles (QB_LOG_TARGET_MAX - QB_LOG_TARGET_STATIC_MAX).
 * To do this, use the following code:
 * @code
 *	mytarget = qb_log_file_open("/var/log/mylogfile");
 *	qb_log_ctl(mytarget, QB_LOG_CONF_ENABLED, QB_TRUE);
 * @endcode
 *
 * Once your targets are enabled/opened you can configure them as follows:
 * Configure the size of blackbox
 * @code
 *	qb_log_ctl(QB_LOG_BLACKBOX, QB_LOG_CONF_SIZE, 1024*10);
 * @endcode
 *
 * Make logging to file threaded:
 * @code
 *	qb_log_ctl(mytarget, QB_LOG_CONF_THREADED, QB_TRUE);
 * @endcode
 *
 * To workaround your syslog daemon filtering all messages > LOG_INFO
 * @code
 *	qb_log_ctl(QB_LOG_SYSLOG, QB_LOG_CONF_PRIORITY_BUMP,
 *		   LOG_INFO - LOG_DEBUG);
 * @endcode
 *
 * To ensure all logs to file targets are fsync'ed (default QB_FALSE)
 * @code
 *	qb_log_ctl(mytarget, QB_LOG_CONF_FILE_SYNC, QB_TRUE);
 * @endcode
 *
 *
 * @par Filtering messages.
 * To have more power over what log messages go to which target you can apply
 * filters to the targets. What happens is the desired callsites have the
 * correct bit set. Then when the log message is generated it gets sent to the
 * targets based on which bit is set in the callsite's "target" bitmap.
 * Messages can be filtered based on the:
 * -# filename + priority
 * -# function name + priority
 * -# format string + priority
 *
 * So to make all logs from evil_function() go to stderr, do the following:
 * @code
 *	qb_log_filter_ctl(QB_LOG_STDERR, QB_LOG_FILTER_ADD,
 *			  QB_LOG_FILTER_FUNCTION, "evil_function", LOG_TRACE);
 * @endcode
 *
 * So to make all logs from totem* (with  a priority <= LOG_INFO) go to stderr,
 * do the following:
 * @code
 *	qb_log_filter_ctl(QB_LOG_STDERR, QB_LOG_FILTER_ADD,
 *			  QB_LOG_FILTER_FILE, "totem", LOG_INFO);
 * @endcode
 *
 * So to make all logs with the substring "ringbuffer" go to stderr,
 * do the following:
 * @code
 *	qb_log_filter_ctl(QB_LOG_STDERR, QB_LOG_FILTER_ADD,
 *			  QB_LOG_FILTER_FORMAT, "ringbuffer", LOG_TRACE);
 * @endcode
 *
 * @par Thread safe non-blocking logging.
 * Logging is only thread safe when threaded logging is in use. If you plan
 * on logging from multiple threads, you must initialize libqb's logger thread
 * and use qb_log_filter_ctl to set the QB_LOG_CONF_THREADED flag on all the
 * logging targets in use.
 *
 * To achieve non-blocking logging, so that any calls to write() or syslog()
 * will not hold up your program, you can use threaded logging as well.
 *
 * Threaded logging use:
 * @code
 * main() {
 *	qb_log_init("simple-log", LOG_DAEMON, LOG_INFO);
 *	qb_log_ctl(QB_LOG_SYSLOG, QB_LOG_CONF_THREADED, QB_TRUE);
 * 	// ...
 * 	daemonize();
 * 	// call this after you fork()
 * 	qb_log_thread_start();
 * 	// ...
 *	qb_log(LOG_WARNING, "watch out");
 * 	// ...
 *	qb_log_fini();
 * }
 * @endcode
 *
 * @par A blackbox for in-field diagnosis.
 * This stores log messages in a ringbuffer so they can be written to
 * file if the program crashes (you will need to catch SIGSEGV). These
 * can then be easily printed out later.
 *
 * @note the blackbox is not enabled by default.
 *
 * Blackbox usage:
 * @code
 *
 * static void sigsegv_handler(int sig)
 * {
 * 	(void)signal (SIGSEGV, SIG_DFL);
 * 	qb_log_blackbox_write_to_file("simple-log.fdata");
 * 	qb_log_fini();
 * 	raise(SIGSEGV);
 * }
 *
 * main() {
 *
 *	signal(SIGSEGV, sigsegv_handler);
 *
 *	qb_log_init("simple-log", LOG_DAEMON, LOG_INFO);
 *	qb_log_filter_ctl(QB_LOG_BLACKBOX, QB_LOG_FILTER_ADD,
 *			  QB_LOG_FILTER_FILE, "*", LOG_DEBUG);
 *	qb_log_ctl(QB_LOG_BLACKBOX, QB_LOG_CONF_SIZE, 1024*10);
 *	qb_log_ctl(QB_LOG_BLACKBOX, QB_LOG_CONF_ENABLED, QB_TRUE);
 * 	// ...
 *	qb_log(LOG_WARNING, "watch out");
 * 	// ...
 *	qb_log_fini();
 * }
 * @endcode
 *
 * @par Tagging messages.
 * You can tag messages using the second argument to qb_logt() or
 * by using qb_log_filter_ctl().
 * This can be used to add feature or sub-system information to the logs.
 *
 * @code
 * const char* my_tags_stringify(uint32_t tags) {
 * 	if (qb_bit_is_set(tags, QB_LOG_TAG_LIBQB_MSG_BIT) {
 * 		return "libqb";
 * 	} else if (tags == 3) {
 * 		return "three";
 * 	} else {
 * 		return "MAIN";
 * 	}
 * }
 * main() {
 * 	// ...
 * 	qb_log_tags_stringify_fn_set(my_tags_stringify);
 * 	qb_log_format_set(QB_LOG_STDERR, "[%5g] %p %b");
 * 	// ...
 * 	qb_logt(LOG_INFO, 3, "hello");
 * 	qb_logt(LOG_INFO, 0, "hello");
 * }
 * @endcode
 * The code above will produce:
 * @code
 * [libqb] some message
 * [three] info hello
 * [MAIN ] info hello
 * @endcode
 *
 * @example simplelog.c
