The Go programming language

The syslog implementation was not correctly implementing the traditional syslog format because it had a confused notion of 'priority'. syslog priority is not a single number but is, in fact, the combination of a facility number and a severity. The previous Go syslog implementation had a single Priority that appeared to be the syslog severity and no way of setting the facility. That meant that all syslog messages from Go programs appeared to have a facility of 0 (LOG_KERN) which meant they all appeared to come from the kernel. Also, the 'prefix' was in fact the syslog tag (changed the internal name for clarity as the term tag is more widely used) and the timestamp and hostname values were missing from messages. With this change syslog messages are generated in the correct format with facility and severity combined into a priority, the timestamp in RFC3339 format, the hostname, the tag (with the PID in [] appened) and the message. The format is now: <PRI>1 TIMESTAMP HOSTNAME TAG[PID]: MSG The TIMESTAMP, HOSTNAME and PID fields are filled in automatically by the package. The TAG and the MSG are supplied by the user. This is what rsyslogd calls TraditionalFormat and should be compatible with multiple systems. R=rsc, jgc, 0xjnml, mikioh.mikioh, bradfitz CC=golang-dev https://golang.org/cl/6782118 |

Binary Distribution Notes
If you have just untarred a binary Go distribution, you need to set
the environment variable $GOROOT to the full path of the go
directory (the one containing this README). You can omit the
variable if you unpack it into /usr/local/go, or if you rebuild
from sources by running all.bash (see doc/install.html).
You should also add the Go binary directory $GOROOT/bin
to your shell's path.
For example, if you extracted the tar file into $HOME/go, you might
put the following in your .profile:
export GOROOT=$HOME/go
export PATH=$PATH:$GOROOT/bin
See doc/install.html for more details.
