#define __SPH_LOCK_FREE_LOGGER_H

/*! \file sphlflogger.h
*  \brief Shared Persistent Heap, logger.
*	For shared memory multi-thread/multi-core applications.
*	This implementation uses atomic operations to implement Lock
*	Free Loggers (SPHLFLogger_t).
*
*	This Logger API supports atomic allocation of storage for event
*	entries for zero copy persistence and sharing.
*	Only the allocation of the entry is serialized.
*	If there are multiple threads or processes generating log entries,
*	on a multi-core processor, hardware threads can fill in Log entries
*	in parallel with other threads.
*
*	The API support simple loggers and circular loggers.
*	Simple loggers stop allocating entries when the log buffer is full.
*	Circular loggers wrap to the beginning of the log buffer when the
*	log buffer fills. This overwrites the oldest log entries. but allows
*	logging on a continuous basis. Circular loggers use a fixed entry
*	stride to insure the oldest entry can be found easily. A stride that
*	matches the cache line size can improve performance by avoiding
*	"false sharing" of cache lines containing multiple logger entries
*	across cores/sockets.
*
*	For example:
*	\code
*   SPHLFLogger_t logger;
*   SPHContext_t context;
*
*   SASJoinRegion();
*   // set up shared circular logger with fixed size entries
*   // Stride is a full cache line for better performance
*   logger = SPHLFCircularLoggerCreate (log_alloc, 128);
*   if ( logger )
*   {
*       context = SPHSetupProjectContext ("myproject");
*       if (context)
*       {
*           SPHContextAddName (context, "flight_recorder", logger)
*       }
*   }
*   \endcode
*
*	As an option the logger allocator will fill in a 16 byte
*	entry header with: \n Entry status and length.  \n Entry identifying
*	Category and SubCategory codes. \n Process and Thread Ids.  \n High
*	resolution timestamp.
*
*   \code
*   SPHLFLogger_t logger;
*   SPHContext_t context;
*   SPHLFLoggerHandle_t *handlex, handle_data;
*
*   SASJoinRegion();
*   // get up shared circular logger
*   context getProjectContextByName ("myproject");
*   if (context)
*   {
*      logger = (SPHLFLogger_t)SPHContextFindByName (context, "flight_recorder");
*    	...
*      // create a flight_recorder entry with application category/subcategory codes
*      // with process/thread IDs and timestamp.
*      if (logger)
*      {
*    	 handex = SPHLFLoggerAllocStrideTimeStamped (logger, category_x, subcat_y, handle_data);
*    	 ...
*      }
*   }
*   \endcode
*
*	Any additional storage allocated to the entry
*	is available for application specific data.
*	The sphlflogentry.h API also provides
*	several mechanisms to store application data including; direct
*	array or structure overlay, and a streams like mechanism.
*	The API provides a completion function (SPHLFLoggerEntryComplete)
*	which provides any memory barriers required by the platform and
*	marks the entry complete.
*
*   \code
*       ...
*       // create a flight_recorder entry with application cat/subcat codes
*       // rumtime provides process/thread IDs and time_stamp.
*
*       handex = SPHLFLoggerAllocStrideTimeStamped (logger, category_x, subcat_y, handle_data);
*       if (handex)
*       {
*           // insert a stream of application specific data
*           SPHLFLogEntryAddInt(handlex, int_data1);
*           SPHLFLogEntryAddInt(handlex, int_data2);
*           SPHLFLogEntryAddPtr(handlex, ptr_1);
*           SPHLFLogEntryAddDouble(handlex, double_data1);
*           SPHLFLogEntryAddString(handlex, "any_c_string");
*    		...
*    	    // Insure the entry is coherent and mark this entry complete
*    	    SPHLFLogEntryComplete (handlex);
*       }
*   \endcode
*
*   The logger contents are shared and persistent and will not be lost if the
*   logging process crashes. Logger entries can be retrieved at any time
*   after it is marked complete.
*
*	The API provides Log Iterator functions that support sequential read-back
*	of (completed) Logger entries. First create a log iterator
*	(with SPHLFloggerCreateIterator). Then use the resulting iterator to
*	sequentially step through log entries (via SPHLFLoggerItertorNext).
*	The iterator runtime handles both simple and circular loggers and insures
*	entries are read-out (oldest to newest) in order.
*
*   \code
*   SPHLFLogIterator_t *iter, iter0;
*   SPHLFLoggerHandle_t *handlex, handle_data;
*   ...
*   // create a Log iterator over the flight recorder
*   iter = SPHLFLoggerCreateIterator(logger, &iter0);
*   if (iter)
*   {
*       handlex = SPHLFLoggerIteratorNext (iter, &handle_data);
*       while (handex)
*       {
*           sphtimer_t entry_timestamp;
*           int cat, subcat, PID, TID:
*           int int_data1, int_data1;
*           void * ptr_1;
*           double double_data1;
*           char * entry_str;
*
*           // extract entry data
*           PID = SPHLFLogEntryPID (handlex);
*           TID = SPHLFLogEntryTID (handlex);
*           cat = SPHLFLogEntryCategory (handlex);
*           subcat = SPHLFLogEntrySubcat (handlex);
*           entry_timestamp = SPHLFLogEntryTimeStamp (handlex);
*           ...
*           // extract application specific data, in insertion order
*           int_data1 = SPHLFLogEntryGetNextInt(handlex);
*           int_data2 = SPHLFLogEntryGetNextInt(handlex);
*           ptr_1 = SPHLFLogEntryGetNextPtr(handlex);
*           double_data1 = SPHLFLogEntryGetNextDouble(handlex);
*           entry_str SPHLFLogEntryGetNextString(handlex);
*		    ...
*           // do something with the date
*           ...
*           // get next entry
*           handlex = SPHLFLoggerIteratorNext (iter, &handle_data);
*       }
