+/// // 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) {

If you choose to not use the default logging implementation that comes with the
XRay runtime and/or control when/how the XRay instrumentation runs, you may use
the XRay APIs directly for doing so. To do this, you'll need to include the
-``xray_interface.h`` from the compiler-rt ``xray`` directory. The important API
+``xray_log_interface.h`` from the compiler-rt ``xray`` directory. The important API
functions we list below:
-- ``__xray_set_handler(void (*entry)(int32_t, XRayEntryType))``: Install your
- own logging handler for when an event is encountered. See
- ``xray/xray_interface.h`` for more details.
-- ``__xray_remove_handler()``: Removes whatever the installed handler is.
-- ``__xray_patch()``: Patch all the instrumentation points defined in the
- binary.
-- ``__xray_unpatch()``: Unpatch the instrumentation points defined in the
- binary.
-
-There are some requirements on the logging handler to be installed for the
-thread-safety of operations to be performed by the XRay runtime library:
-
-- The function should be thread-safe, as multiple threads may be invoking the
- function at the same time. If the logging function needs to do
- synchronisation, it must do so internally as XRay does not provide any
- synchronisation guarantees outside from the atomicity of updates to the
- pointer.
-- The pointer provided to ``__xray_set_handler(...)`` must be live even after
- calls to ``__xray_remove_handler()`` and ``__xray_unpatch()`` have succeeded.
- XRay cannot guarantee that all threads that have ever gotten a copy of the
- pointer will not invoke the function.
+- ``__xray_log_register_mode(...)``: Register a logging implementation against
+ a string Mode identifier. The implementation is an instance of
+ ``XRayLogImpl`` defined in ``xray/xray_log_interface.h``.
+- ``__xray_log_select_mode(...)``: Select the mode to install, associated with
+ a string Mode identifier. Only implementations registered with
+ ``__xray_log_register_mode(...)`` can be chosen with this function.
+- ``__xray_log_init_mode(...)``: This function allows for initializing and
+ re-initializing an installed logging implementation. See
+ ``xray/xray_log_interface.h`` for details, part of the XRay compiler-rt
+ installation.
+
+Once a logging implementation has been initialized, it can be "stopped" by
+finalizing the implementation through the ``__xray_log_finalize()`` function.
+The finalization routine is the opposite of the initialization. When finalized,
+an implementation's data can be cleared out through the
+``__xray_log_flushLog()`` function. For implementations that support in-memory
+processing, these should register an iterator function to provide access to the
+data via the ``__xray_log_set_buffer_iterator(...)`` which allows code calling
+the ``__xray_log_process_buffers(...)`` function to deal with the data in
+memory.
+
+All of this is better explained in the ``xray/xray_log_interface.h`` header.
+
+Basic Mode
+----------
+
+XRay supports a basic logging mode which will trace the application's
+execution, and periodically append to a single log. This mode can be
+installed/enabled by setting ``xray_mode=xray-basic`` in the ``XRAY_OPTIONS``
+environment variable. Combined with ``patch_premain=true`` this can allow for
+tracing applications from start to end.
+
+Like all the other modes installed through ``__xray_log_select_mode(...)``, the
+implementation can be configured through the ``__xray_log_init_mode(...)``
+function, providing the mode string and the flag options. Basic-mode specific
+defaults can be provided in the ``XRAY_BASIC_OPTIONS`` environment variable.
Flight Data Recorder Mode
-------------------------
very much like a plane's "black box" which keeps recording data to memory in a
fixed-size circular queue of buffers, and have the data available
programmatically until the buffers are finalized and flushed. To use FDR mode
-on your application, you may set the ``xray_fdr_log`` option to ``true`` in the
-``XRAY_OPTIONS`` environment variable (while also optionally setting the
-``xray_naive_log`` to ``false``).
+on your application, you may set the ``xray_mode`` variable to ``xray-fdr`` in
+the ``XRAY_OPTIONS`` environment variable. Additional options to the FDR mode
+implementation can be provided in the ``XRAY_FDR_OPTIONS`` environment
+variable. Programmatic configuration can be done by calling
+``__xray_log_init_mode("xray-fdr", <configuration string>)`` once it has been
+selected/installed.
When the buffers are flushed to disk, the result is a binary trace format
described by `XRay FDR format <XRayFDRFormat.html>`_
}
The default settings for the FDR mode implementation will create logs named
-similarly to the naive log implementation, but will have a different log

+ versions we support going forward. Deprecation of the formats will be
announced and discussed on the developers mailing list.
-XRay allows for replacing the default FDR mode logging implementation using the
-following API:
-
-- ``__xray_set_log_impl(...)``: This function takes a struct of type
- ``XRayLogImpl``, which is defined in ``xray/xray_log_interface.h``, part of
- the XRay compiler-rt installation.
-- ``__xray_log_register_mode(...)``: Register a logging implementation against
- a string Mode. The implementation is an instance of ``XRayLogImpl`` defined
- in ``xray/xray_log_interface.h``.
-- ``__xray_log_select_mode(...)``: Select the mode to install, associated with
- a string Mode. Only implementations registered with
- ``__xray_log_register_mode(...)`` can be chosen with this function. When
- successful, has the same effects as calling ``__xray_set_log_impl(...)`` with
- the registered logging implementation.
-- ``__xray_log_init(...)``: This function allows for initializing and
- re-initializing an installed logging implementation. See
- ``xray/xray_log_interface.h`` for details, part of the XRay compiler-rt
- installation.
