Primarily, field values are formatted UTF\-8 text strings \(em binary encoding is used only where formatting as UTF\-8 text strings makes little sense\&. New fields may freely be defined by applications, but a few fields have special meanings, which are listed below\&. Typically, fields may only appear once per log entry, however there are special exceptions: some fields may appear more than once per entry, in which case this is explicitly mentioned below\&. Even though the logging subsystem makes no restrictions on which fields to accept non\-unique values for, it is strongly recommended to avoid relying on this for the fields listed below (except where listed otherwise, as mentioned) in order to avoid unnecessary incompatibilities with other applications\&. +.SH "USER JOURNAL FIELDS" +.PP +User fields are fields that are directly passed from clients and stored in the journal\&. +.PP +\fIMESSAGE=\fR +.RS 4 +The human\-readable message string for this entry\&. This is supposed to be the primary text shown to the user\&. It is usually not translated (but might be in some cases), and is not supposed to be parsed for metadata\&. In order to encode multiple lines in a single log entry, separate them by newline characters (ASCII code 10), but encode them as a single +\fIMESSAGE=\fR +field\&. Do not add multiple values of this field type to the same entry (also see above), as consuming applications generally do not expect this and are unlikely to show all values in that case\&. +.RE +.PP +\fIMESSAGE_ID=\fR +.RS 4 +A 128\-bit message identifier ID for recognizing certain message types, if this is desirable\&. This should contain a 128\-bit ID formatted as a lower\-case hexadecimal string, without any separating dashes or suchlike\&. This is recommended to be a UUID\-compatible ID, but this is not enforced, and formatted differently\&. Developers can generate a new ID for this purpose with +\fBsystemd\-id128 new\fR\&. +.RE +.PP +\fIPRIORITY=\fR +.RS 4 +A priority value between 0 ("emerg") and 7 ("debug") formatted as a decimal string\&. This field is compatible with syslog\*(Aqs priority concept\&. +.RE +.PP +\fICODE_FILE=\fR, \fICODE_LINE=\fR, \fICODE_FUNC=\fR +.RS 4 +The code location generating this message, if known\&. Contains the source filename, the line number and the function name\&. +.RE +.PP +\fIERRNO=\fR +.RS 4 +The low\-level Unix error number causing this entry, if any\&. Contains the numeric value of +\fBerrno\fR(3) +formatted as a decimal string\&. +.sp +Added in version 188\&. +.RE +.PP +\fIINVOCATION_ID=\fR, \fIUSER_INVOCATION_ID=\fR +.RS 4 +A randomized, unique 128\-bit ID identifying each runtime cycle of the unit\&. This is different from +\fI_SYSTEMD_INVOCATION_ID\fR +in that it is only used for messages coming from systemd code (e\&.g\&. logs from the system/user manager or from forked processes performing systemd\-related setup)\&. +.sp +Added in version 245\&. +.RE +.PP +\fISYSLOG_FACILITY=\fR, \fISYSLOG_IDENTIFIER=\fR, \fISYSLOG_PID=\fR, \fISYSLOG_TIMESTAMP=\fR +.RS 4 +Syslog compatibility fields containing the facility (formatted as decimal string), the identifier string (i\&.e\&. "tag"), the client PID, and the timestamp as specified in the original datagram\&. (Note that the tag is usually derived from glibc\*(Aqs +\fIprogram_invocation_short_name\fR +variable, see +\fBprogram_invocation_short_name\fR(3)\&.) +.sp +Note that the journal service does not validate the values of any structured journal fields whose name is not prefixed with an underscore, and this includes any syslog related fields such as these\&. Hence, applications that supply a facility, PID, or log level are expected to do so properly formatted, i\&.e\&. as numeric integers formatted as decimal strings\&. +.RE +.PP +\fISYSLOG_RAW=\fR +.RS 4 +The original contents of the syslog line as received in the syslog datagram\&. This field is only included if the +\fIMESSAGE=\fR +field was modified compared to the original payload or the timestamp could not be located properly and is not included in +\fISYSLOG_TIMESTAMP=\fR\&. Message truncation occurs when the message contains leading or trailing whitespace (trailing and leading whitespace is stripped), or it contains an embedded +\fBNUL\fR +byte (the +\fBNUL\fR +byte and anything after it is not included)\&. Thus, the original syslog line is either stored as +\fISYSLOG_RAW=\fR +or it can be recreated based on the stored priority and facility, timestamp, identifier, and the message payload in +\fIMESSAGE=\fR\&. +.sp +Added in version 240\&. +.RE +.PP +\fIDOCUMENTATION=\fR +.RS 4 +A documentation URL with further information about the topic of the log message\&. Tools such as +\fBjournalctl\fR +will include a hyperlink to a URL specified this way in their output\&. Should be an +"http://", +"https://", +"file:/", +"man:" +or +"info:" +URL\&. +.sp +Added in version 246\&. +.RE +.PP +\fITID=\fR +.RS 4 +The numeric thread ID (TID) the log message originates from\&. +.sp +Added in version 247\&. +.RE +.PP +\fIUNIT=\fR, \fIUSER_UNIT=\fR +.RS 4 +The name of a unit\&.

If the entry is associated to a block device, contains the major and minor numbers of the device node, separated by +":" +and prefixed by +"b"\&. Similarly for character devices, but prefixed by +"c"\&. For network devices, this is the interface index prefixed by +"n"\&.
