Log Categories and Macros¶

Built in Categories¶

The SDK declares these log categories. Each one has a setting such as log.categories.gpu that sets its level. See Logging for how to add your own.

Category	Messages
`core`	The core library, module loading, settings and the app lifecycle.
`filesystem`	The mount table, links and file providers.
`kernel`	The xboxkrnl kernel exports.
`xam`	The XAM exports.
`system`	Kernel objects, guest threads, guest memory and modules, and the host threads and memory behind them.
`cpu`	Function dispatch and the PPC context.
`title`	The debug text that the title writes through `DbgPrint` and `OutputDebugString`.
`apu`	Guest audio, XMA decoding and the audio driver modules.
`hid`	Input devices and the input driver modules.
`ui`	Windows, presenters, overlays and ImGui.
`console`	The output of console overlay commands.
`gpu`	Xenos emulation, shader translation and the host graphics paths.
`codegen`	Recompiler analysis and code generation.
`rexglue`	The `rexglue` command line tool.

Each prefix forms the macros of one category, such as REXGPU_INFO and REXGPU_FAIL. See Logging for the macro forms.

The core failure macros have no LOG in their names: REX_FAIL, REX_FATAL and REX_CHECK.

The prefixes of kernel, title, xam, codegen and rexglue are declared in private headers under src, not in the public headers.

The %Q flag of log.pattern writes the level as one letter. See Logging for log.pattern.
