http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1033 Accepted as Marked
This item is tagged for issue 8
Add after P411, L13981 (<syslog.h>):
LOG_UPTO(pri)
A mask for all priorities from LOG_EMERG through pri inclusive
in the order listed in the list of priority symbolic constants
below. Any additional implementation-defined priorities not
included in the list below shall not be included in the
mask.
Change P411, L13982 (<syslog.h>)
from:
The <syslog.h> header shall define the following symbolic
constants for use as the priority argument of syslog( ):
to:
The <syslog.h> header shall define the following symbolic
constants for use as the severity level portion of the priority
argument of syslog( ) and the pri argument of the LOG_MASK( )
and LOG_UPTO( ) macros:
Add after P694, L23803 (closelog() DESCRIPTION) :
The LOG_MASK( ) and LOG_UPTO( ) macros may be used to ensure a
value or range of severity levels is properly encoded for the
setlogmask( ) maskpri argument in a portable manner. The masks
produced by these macros may be OR'ed or AND'ed with other
priority masks (e.g.,
LOG_UPTO(LOG_WARNING) | LOG_MASK(LOG_DEBUG)
and
LOG_UPTO(LOG_DEBUG) & ~((LOG_MASK(LOG_NOTICE) | LOG_MASK(LOG_INFO))
would produce the same priority mask).
