.SH DESCRIPTION
These routines provide an in-memory circular log
structure used by the Venti library and the Venti server
to record events for debugging purposes.
The logs are named by UTF strings.
.PP
.I Vtlogopen
returns a reference to the log with the given
.I name .
If a log with that name does not exist and
.I size
is non-zero,
.I vtlogopen
creates a new log capable of holding at
least
.I size
bytes and returns it.
.I Vtlogclose
releases the reference returned by
.IR vtlogopen .
.PP
.I Vtlogprint
writes to
.IR log ,
which must be open.
.PP
.I Vtlog
is a convenient packaging of
.I vtlogopen
followed by
.I vtlogprint
and
.IR vtlogclose .
.PP
.I Vtlogremove
removes the log with the given
.IR name ,
freeing any associated storage.
.PP
.I Vtlognames
returns a list of the names of all the logs.
The length of the list is returned in
.BI * n \fR.
The list
should be freed
by calling
.I vtfree
on the returned pointer.
The strings in the list will be freed by this call as well.
(It is an error to call
.I vtfree
on any of the strings in the list.)
.PP
.I Vtlogdump
prints
.IR log ,
which must be open, to the file descriptor
.IR fd .
.PP
If
.I ventilogging
is set to zero (the default),
.I vtlognames
and
.I vtlogdump
can inspect existing logs, but
.I vtlogopen
always returns nil
and
.I vtlog
is a no-op.
The other functions are no-ops when
passed nil log structures.
.PP
The server library
(see
.MR venti-conn (3)
and
.MR venti-server (3) )
writes debugging information to the log named
.IR VtServerLog ,
which defaults to the string
.RB ` libventi/server '.
