// This header defines the `VLOG_IS_ON()` macro that controls the
// variable-verbosity conditional logging.
//
// It's used by `VLOG` in log.h, or it can also be used directly like this:
//
//   if (VLOG_IS_ON(2)) {
//     foo_server.RecomputeStatisticsExpensive();
//     LOG(INFO) << foo_server.LastStatisticsAsString();
//   }
//
// Each source file has an effective verbosity level that's a non-negative
// integer computed from the `--vmodule` and `--v` flags.
// `VLOG_IS_ON(n)` is true, and `VLOG(n)` logs, if that effective verbosity
// level is greater than or equal to `n`.
//
// `--vmodule` takes a comma-delimited list of key=value pairs.  Each key is a
// pattern matched against filenames, and the values give the effective severity
// level applied to matching files.  '?' and '*' characters in patterns are
// interpreted as single-character and zero-or-more-character wildcards.
// Patterns including a slash character are matched against full pathnames,
// while those without are matched against basenames only.  One suffix (i.e. the
// last . and everything after it) is stripped from each filename prior to
// matching, as is the special suffix "-inl".
//
// Example: --vmodule=module_a=1,module_b=2
//
// Files are matched against globs in `--vmodule` in order, and the first match
// determines the verbosity level.
//
// Files which do not match any pattern in `--vmodule` use the value of `--v` as
// their effective verbosity level.  The default is 0.
//
// SetVLogLevel helper function is provided to do limited dynamic control over
// V-logging by appending to `--vmodule`. Because these go at the beginning of
// the list, they take priority over any globs previously added.
//
// Resetting --vmodule will override all previous modifications to `--vmodule`,
// including via SetVLogLevel.
