.SH "NAME"
sd_journal_stream_fd \- Create log stream file descriptor to the journal
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
.ft B
.nf
#include <systemd/sd\-journal\&.h>
.fi
.ft
.HP \w'int\ sd_journal_stream_fd('u
.BI "int sd_journal_stream_fd(const\ char\ *" "identifier" ", int\ " "priority" ", int\ " "level_prefix" ");"
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBsd_journal_stream_fd()\fR
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\&.
.PP
\fBsd_journal_stream_fd()\fR
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
\fBsystemd.journal-fields\fR(7)
for more information)\&. The second argument shall be the default priority level for all messages\&. The priority level is one of
\fBLOG_EMERG\fR,
\fBLOG_ALERT\fR,
\fBLOG_CRIT\fR,
\fBLOG_ERR\fR,
\fBLOG_WARNING\fR,
\fBLOG_NOTICE\fR,
\fBLOG_INFO\fR,
\fBLOG_DEBUG\fR, as defined in
syslog\&.h, see
\fBsyslog\fR(3)
for details\&. The third argument is a boolean: if true kernel\-style log level prefixes (such as
\fBSD_WARNING\fR) are interpreted, see
\fBsd-daemon\fR(3)
for more information\&.
.PP
It is recommended that applications log UTF\-8 messages only with this API, but this is not enforced\&.
.PP
Each invocation of
\fBsd_journal_stream_fd()\fR
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
\fBO_NONBLOCK\fR
is turned off initially\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
The call returns a valid write\-only file descriptor on success or a negative errno\-style error code\&.
.SH "SIGNAL SAFETY"
.PP
\fBsd_journal_stream_fd()\fR
is "async signal safe" in the meaning of
\fBsignal-safety\fR(7)\&.
.SH "NOTES"
.PP
All functions listed here are thread\-safe and may be called in parallel from multiple threads\&.
.PP
These APIs are implemented as a shared library, which can be compiled and linked to with the
\fBlibsystemd\fR\ \&\fBpkg-config\fR(1)
file\&.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.PP
