 		The human readable text string starts directly after the ';'
 		and is terminated by a '\n'. Untrusted values derived from

 		A line starting with ' ', is a continuation line, adding
 		key/value pairs to the log message, which provide the machine
 		readable context of the message, for reliable processing in
 		userspace.
 
 		Example:
-		7,160,424069;pci_root PNP0A03:00: host bridge window [io  0x0000-0x0cf7] (ignored)

 		The DEVICE= key uniquely identifies devices the following way:
 		  b12:8        - block dev_t
 		  c127:3       - char dev_t
 		  n8           - netdev ifindex
 		  +sound:card0 - subsystem:devname
 
+		The flags field carries '-' by default. A 'c' indicates a
+		fragment of a line. All following fragments are flagged with
+		'+'. Note, that these hints about continuation lines are not
+		neccessarily correct, and the stream could be interleaved with
+		unrelated messages, but merging the lines in the output
+		usually produces better human readable results. A similar
+		logic is used internally when messages are printed to the
+		console, /proc/kmsg or the syslog() syscall.
