@brief
    Logging level enumerators and library logging control.

The logging API offers logging level enumerators (#bt_logging_level)
as well as functions to control libbabeltrace2's internal logging.

@note
    This API does \em not offer macros and functions to write logging
    statements: as of \bt_name_version_min_maj, the actual mechanism to
    log is implementation-defined for each user \bt_plugin.

libbabeltrace2 contains many hundreds of logging statements to help you
follow and debug your plugin or program.

The library's initial logging level is controlled by the
\c LIBBABELTRACE2_INIT_LOG_LEVEL environment variable. If this
environment variable is not set at library load time, the library's
initial logging level is #BT_LOGGING_LEVEL_NONE. See
\ref api-fund-logging to learn more.

Set libbabeltrace2's current logging level with
bt_logging_set_global_level().

\anchor api-logging-extra-lib bt_logging_set_global_level() only
controls <strong>libbabeltrace2</strong>'s logging level; it does \em
not control the logging level of:

- Individual \bt_p_comp: bt_graph_add_source_component(),
  bt_graph_add_source_component_with_initialize_method_data(),
  bt_graph_add_filter_component(),
  bt_graph_add_filter_component_with_initialize_method_data(),
  bt_graph_add_sink_component(), and
  bt_graph_add_sink_component_with_initialize_method_data() control
  this.

- A \ref api-qexec "query operation":
  bt_query_executor_set_logging_level() controls this.

- The bt_get_greatest_operative_mip_version() or
  bt_get_greatest_operative_mip_version_with_restriction() operation:
  its \bt_p{logging_level} parameter controls this.

As of \bt_name_version_min_maj, there's no module-specific logging level
control: bt_logging_set_global_level() sets the logging level of all the
library's modules.

libbabeltrace2 writes its logging statements to the standard error
stream. A logging line looks like this:

@code{.unparsed}
05-11 00:58:03.691 23402 23402 D VALUES bt_value_destroy@values.c:498 Destroying value: addr=0xb9c3eb0
@endcode

See \ref api-fund-logging to learn more about the logging statement
line's format.

You can set a \em minimal logging level at the \bt_name project's build
time (see \ref api-fund-logging to learn how). The logging statements
with a level that's less severe than the minimal logging level are \em
not built. For example, if the minimal logging level is
#BT_LOGGING_LEVEL_INFO, the #BT_LOGGING_LEVEL_TRACE and
#BT_LOGGING_LEVEL_DEBUG logging statements are not built. Use
bt_logging_get_minimal_level() to get the library's minimal logging
level.
