Implementing the library logging macros

The FreeRTOS libraries use the following logging macros, listed in increasing order of verbosity.

  • LogError

  • LogWarn

  • LogInfo

  • LogDebug

A definition for all the macros must be provided. The recommendations are:

  • Macros should support C89 style logging.

  • Logging should be thread safe. Log lines from multiple tasks must not interleave with each other.

  • Logging APIs must not block, and must free application tasks from blocking on I/O.

Refer to the Logging Functionality on FreeRTOS.org for implementation specifics. You can see an implementation in this example.

Testing

  • Run a test with multiple tasks to verify logs do not interleave.

  • Run a test to verify that the logging APIs do not block on I/O.

  • Test logging macros with various standards, such as C89,C99 style logging.

  • Test logging macros by setting different log levels, such as Debug, Info, Error, and Warning.
