172 * specification](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.journal-fields.html).
173 * See g_log_structured() for more information.
175 * Writer functions must ignore fields which they do not recognise, unless they
176 * can write arbitrary binary output, as field values may be arbitrary binary.
178 * @log_level is guaranteed to be included in @fields as the `PRIORITY` field,
179 * but is provided separately for convenience of deciding whether or where to
180 * output the log entry.
182 * Writer functions should return %G_LOG_WRITER_HANDLED if they handled the log
183 * message successfully or if they deliberately ignored it. If there was an
184 * error handling the message (for example, if the writer function is meant to
185 * send messages to a remote logging server and there is a network error), it
186 * should return %G_LOG_WRITER_UNHANDLED. This allows writer functions to be
187 * chained and fall back to simpler handlers in case of failure.
