* vlog: abstract out interface to syslog daemonAnsis Atteka2015-06-271-0/+110
This patch helps to address two issues that are present on Ubuntu 15.04 (and most likely other Linux distributions) where rsyslog daemon is configured to relay log messages from OVS to a remote log collector and syslog format being used is something other than the one defined in RFC 3164. These two issues are: 1. libc syslog() function always adds RFC 3164 prefix to syslog messages before sending them over /dev/log Unix domain socket. This does not allow us to use libc syslog() function to log in RFC 5424 format; and 2. rsyslogd daemon that comes with Ubuntu 15.04 is too old and uses hardcoded syslog message parser when it received messages over /dev/log UNIX domain socket. Solution to those two issues would be to use the newly introduced --syslog-method=udp:127.0.0.1:514 command line argument when starting OVS.
