-.SH LIBRARY
-Standard C library

-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-.B #include <syslog.h>
-.P
-.BI "int setlogmask(int " mask );
-.fi
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-A process has a log priority mask that determines which calls to
-.BR syslog (3)
-may be logged.
-All other calls will be ignored.
-Logging is enabled for the priorities that have the corresponding
-bit set in
-.IR mask .
-The initial mask is such that logging is enabled for all priorities.
-.P
-The
-.BR setlogmask ()
-function sets this logmask for the calling process,
-and returns the previous mask.
-If the
-.I mask
-argument is
-.BR 0 ,
-the current logmask is not modified.
-.P
-The eight priorities are
-.BR LOG_EMERG ,
-.BR LOG_ALERT ,
-.BR LOG_CRIT ,
-.BR LOG_ERR ,
-.BR LOG_WARNING ,
-.BR LOG_NOTICE ,
-.BR LOG_INFO ,
-and
-.BR LOG_DEBUG .
-The bit corresponding to a priority
-.I p
-is
-.IR LOG_MASK(p) .
-Some systems also provide a macro
-.I LOG_UPTO(p)
-for the mask
-of all priorities in the above list up to and including
-.IR p .
-.SH RETURN VALUE
-This function returns the previous log priority mask.
-.SH ERRORS
-None.
