There are three logging levels for messages: FATAL, NOTICE and DEBUG.
When a message is logged with FATAL level it results in bpfilter
usermode helper termination.
Could you please explain why we choose to have 3 levels? Will we need
more levels,
like WARNING, ERROR, etc.?

I found that I need one level for development - to trace what
goes rignt and wrong. At the same time as those messages go to
dmesg this level is too verbose to be used under normal
circumstances. That is why another level is introduced. And the
last one exists to verify invariants or error condintions from
which there is no right way to recover and they result in
bpfilter termination.

Probably we may have just two levels - DEBUG and NOTICE and some
analogue of BUG_ON/WARN_ON/runtime assert that results in a
message on NOTICE level and program termination if the checked
condition is false.

I don't think that we will need more levels - until we decide to
utilize syslog facility. Even in that case I don't know how to
differntiate between e.g. NOTICE and INFO messages.

Introduce struct context to avoid use of global objects and store there
the logging parameters: log level and log sink.

Maybe combine bflog.h and context.h into one file? And bflog() can
probably fit in
that file too.

Sure.
Thanks,
