23 | object associated with a specific field from the current journal | |
24 | entry. It takes four arguments: the journal context object, a | |
25 | string with the field name to request, plus a pair of pointers to | |
26 | pointer/size variables where the data object and its size shall be | |
27 | stored in. The field name should be an entry field name. | |
28 | Well-known field names are listed in | |
29 | <a href="systemd.journal-fields.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">systemd.journal-fields</span>(7)</span></a>. | |
30 | The returned data is in a read-only memory map and is only valid | |
31 | until the next invocation of | |
32 | <code class="function">sd_journal_get_data()</code> or | |
33 | <code class="function">sd_journal_enumerate_data()</code>, or the read | |
34 | pointer is altered. Note that the data returned will be prefixed | |
35 | with the field name and '='. Also note that by default data fields | |
36 | larger than 64K might get truncated to 64K. This threshold may be | |
37 | changed and turned off with | |
38 | <code class="function">sd_journal_set_data_threshold()</code> (see | |
39 | below).</p><p><code class="function">sd_journal_enumerate_data()</code> may be used | |
40 | to iterate through all fields of the current entry. On each | |
41 | invocation the data for the next field is returned. The order of | |
42 | these fields is not defined. The data returned is in the same | |
43 | format as with <code class="function">sd_journal_get_data()</code> and also | |
44 | follows the same life-time semantics.</p><p><code class="function">sd_journal_restart_data()</code> resets the | |
45 | data enumeration index to the beginning of the entry. The next | |
46 | invocation of <code class="function">sd_journal_enumerate_data()</code> | |
47 | will return the first field of the entry again.</p><p>Note that the <code class="function">SD_JOURNAL_FOREACH_DATA()</code> | |
48 | macro may be used as a handy wrapper around | |
49 | <code class="function">sd_journal_restart_data()</code> and | |
50 | <code class="function">sd_journal_enumerate_data()</code>.</p><p>Note that these functions will not work before | |

52 | (or related call) has been called at least once, in order to | |
53 | position the read pointer at a valid entry.</p><p><code class="function">sd_journal_set_data_threshold()</code> may be | |
54 | used to change the data field size threshold for data returned by | |
55 | <code class="function">sd_journal_get_data()</code>, | |
56 | <code class="function">sd_journal_enumerate_data()</code> and | |
57 | <code class="function">sd_journal_enumerate_unique()</code>. This threshold | |
58 | is a hint only: it indicates that the client program is interested | |
59 | only in the initial parts of the data fields, up to the threshold | |
60 | in size -- but the library might still return larger data objects. | |
61 | That means applications should not rely exclusively on this | |
62 | setting to limit the size of the data fields returned, but need to | |
63 | apply a explicit size limit on the returned data as well. This | |
64 | threshold defaults to 64K by default. To retrieve the complete | |
65 | data fields this threshold should be turned off by setting it to | |
66 | 0, so that the library always returns the complete data objects. | |
67 | It is recommended to set this threshold as low as possible since | |
68 | this relieves the library from having to decompress large | |
69 | compressed data objects in full.</p><p><code class="function">sd_journal_get_data_threshold()</code> returns | |
70 | the currently configured data field size threshold.</p></div><div class="refsect1"><a name="idm140169296612688"></a><h2 id="Return Value">Return Value<a class="headerlink" title="Permalink to this headline" href="#Return%20Value">¶</a></h2><p><code class="function">sd_journal_get_data()</code> returns 0 on | |
