seek after the last record available at the time
the last SYSLOG_ACTION_CLEAR was issued.
Other seek operations or offsets are not supported because of
the special behavior this device has. The device allows to read
or write only whole variable length messages (records) that are
stored in a ring buffer.
Because of the non-standard behavior also the error values are
non-standard. -ESPIPE is returned for non-zero offset. -EINVAL
is returned for other operations, e.g. SEEK_CUR. This behavior
and values are historical and could not be modified without the
risk of breaking userspace.
The output format consists of a prefix carrying the syslog
prefix including priority and facility, the 64 bit message
sequence number and the monotonic timestamp in microseconds,
