[PATCH v4 4/7] misc: syslog: Simplify implementation

Adhemerval Zanella adhemerval.zanella@linaro.org
Mon Mar 21 15:08:35 GMT 2022


Use a temporary buffer for strftime instead of using internal libio
members, simplify fprintf call on the memstream and memory allocation,
use %b instead of %h, use dprintf instead of writev for LOG_PERROR.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.
