NAME¶
ocxl_messages - OpenCAPI Messages
- These functions control messages from libocxl, such as error messages and
tracing.
SYNOPSIS¶
Functions¶

(ocxl_afu_h afu, void(*handler)(ocxl_afu_h afu,
ocxl_err error, const char *message))
Override the default handler for emitting error messages for an AFU. void
ocxl_enable_messages (uint64_t sources)
Enable messages from libocxl open calls. void
ocxl_set_error_message_handler (void(*handler)(ocxl_err error,
const char *message))
Override the default handler for emitting error messages from open calls.
const char * ocxl_err_to_string (ocxl_err err)
Convert an error value to a string. const char * ocxl_info ()
Get version & compilation information about LibOCXL.
Detailed Description¶
These functions control messages from libocxl, such as error messages and tracing.
Function Documentation¶
void ocxl_afu_enable_messages (ocxl_afu_h afu, uint64_t sources)¶
Enable messages from an AFU. Error messages, if enabled, are emitted by default on STDERR. This behavior may be overridden by ocxl_afu_set_error_message_handler().
Tracing, if enabled, is always emitted on STDERR. It assists a developer by showing detailed AFU information, as well as MMIO & IRQ interactions between the application and the AFU. It does not show direct accesses to memory from the AFU.

ocxl_enable_messages()
Parameters
sources a bitwise OR of the message sources to enable (OCXL_ERRORS, OCXL_TRACING)
void ocxl_afu_set_error_message_handler (ocxl_afu_h afu, void(*)(ocxl_afu_h afu, ocxl_err error, const char *message) handler)¶
Override the default handler for emitting error messages for an AFU. The default error handler emits messages on STDERR, to override this behavior, pass a callback to this function.
The callback is responsible for prefixing and line termination.
Typical use cases would be redirecting error messages to the application's own logging/reporting mechanisms, and adding additional application-specific context to the error messages.

Parameters
handler the new error message handler
void ocxl_enable_messages (uint64_t sources)¶
Enable messages from libocxl open calls. Error messages, if enabled, are emitted by default on STDERR. This behavior may be overridden by ocxl_afu_set_error_message_handler().
Tracing, if enabled, is always emitted on STDERR. It assists a developer by showing detailed AFU information.

Parameters
const char * ocxl_err_to_string (ocxl_err err)¶
Convert an error value to a string. When implementing an error message handler, it may be useful to decode the provided ocxl_err to a human readable string, before logging the message.

Parameters
Returns
const char * ocxl_info ()¶
Get version & compilation information about LibOCXL. This must be included with any bug report.
The format and ordering of lines in this string may change.
Returns
void ocxl_set_error_message_handler (void(*)(ocxl_err error, const char *message) handler)¶
Override the default handler for emitting error messages from open calls. The default error handler emits messages on STDERR, to override this behavior, pass a callback to this function.
The callback is responsible for prefixing and line termination.
Typical use cases would be redirecting error messages to the application's own logging/reporting mechanisms, and adding additional application-specific context to the error messages.
