Unfortunately, timestamps in logs are produced by clients:
#include <syslog.h>
int main() {
syslog(LOG_INFO, "Hello");
return 0;
}
$ strace ./testprog
...
socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_DGRAM|SOCK_CLOEXEC, 0) = 3
connect(3, {sa_family=AF_UNIX, sun_path="/dev/log"}, 110) = 0
sendto(3, "<14>Oct 7 16:13:31 testprog: Hello", 35, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) = 35
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
What do you propose for syslog to do with underlined part of the message?
