// This file is a part of XRay, a function call tracing system.
//
// APIs for installing a new logging implementation.
//
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
///
/// XRay allows users to implement their own logging handlers and install them
/// to replace the default runtime-controllable implementation that comes with
/// compiler-rt/xray. The "flight data recorder" (FDR) mode implementation uses
/// this API to install itself in an XRay-enabled binary. See
/// compiler-rt/lib/xray_fdr_logging.{h,cc} for details of that implementation.
///
/// The high-level usage pattern for these APIs look like the following:
///
///   // We choose the mode which we'd like to install, and check whether this
///   // has succeeded. Each mode will have their own set of flags they will
///   // support, outside of the global XRay configuration options that are
///   // defined in the XRAY_OPTIONS environment variable.
///   auto select_status = __xray_log_select_mode("xray-fdr");
///   if (select_status != XRayLogRegisterStatus::XRAY_REGISTRATION_OK) {
///     // This failed, we should not proceed with attempting to initialise
///     // the currently selected mode.
///     return;
///   }
///
///   // Once that's done, we can now attempt to configure the implementation.
///   // To do this, we provide the string flags configuration for the mode.
///   auto config_status = __xray_log_init_mode(
///       "xray-fdr", "verbosity=1 some_flag=1 another_flag=2");
///   if (config_status != XRayLogInitStatus::XRAY_LOG_INITIALIZED) {
///     // deal with the error here, if there is one.
///   }
///
///   // When the log implementation has had the chance to initialize, we can
///   // now patch the instrumentation points. Note that we could have patched
///   // the instrumentation points first, but there's no strict ordering to
///   // these operations.
///   auto patch_status = __xray_patch();
///   if (patch_status != XRayPatchingStatus::SUCCESS) {
///     // deal with the error here, if it is an error.
///   }
///
///   // If we want to stop the implementation, we can then finalize it (before
///   // optionally flushing the log).
///   auto fin_status = __xray_log_finalize();
///   if (fin_status != XRayLogInitStatus::XRAY_LOG_FINALIZED) {
///     // deal with the error here, if it is an error.
///   }
///
///   // We can optionally wait before flushing the log to give other threads a
///   // chance to see that the implementation is already finalized. Also, at
///   // this point we can optionally unpatch the instrumentation points to
///   // reduce overheads at runtime.
///   auto unpatch_status = __xray_unpatch();
///   if (unpatch_status != XRayPatchingStatus::SUCCESS) {
///     // deal with the error here, if it is an error.
///   }
///
///   // If there are logs or data to be flushed somewhere, we can do so only
///   // after we've finalized the log. Some implementations may not actually
///   // have anything to log (it might keep the data in memory, or periodically
///   // be logging the data anyway).
///   auto flush_status = __xray_log_flushLog();
///   if (flush_status != XRayLogFlushStatus::XRAY_LOG_FLUSHED) {
///     // deal with the error here, if it is an error.
///   }
///
///   // Alternatively, we can go through the buffers ourselves without
///   // relying on the implementations' flushing semantics (if the
///   // implementation supports exporting this data directly).
///   auto MyBufferProcessor = +[](const char* mode, XRayBuffer buffer) {
///     // Check the "mode" to see if it's something we know how to handle...
///     // and/or do something with an XRayBuffer instance.
///   };

///   if (process_status != XRayLogFlushStatus::XRAY_LOG_FLUSHED) {
///     // deal with the error here, if it is an error.
///   }
