-<h1>/dev/kmsg Log Input Module</h1>
-<p><b>Module Name:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; imkmsg</b></p>
-<p><b>Authors: </b>Rainer Gerhards
-&lt;rgerhards@adiscon.com&gt;<br />
-Milan Bartos
-&lt;mbartos@redhat.com&gt;</p>
-<p><b>Description</b>:</p>
-<p>Reads messages from the /dev/kmsg structured kernel log and submits them to the
-syslog engine.</p>
-<p>
-The printk log buffer constains log records. These records are exported by /dev/kmsg
-device as structured data in the following format:<br />
- "level,sequnum,timestamp;&lt;message text&gt;\n"<br />
-There could be continuation lines starting with space that contains key/value pairs.<br />
-<br />
-Log messages are parsed as necessary into rsyslog msg_t structure. Continuation lines are parsed
-as json key/value pairs and added into rsyslog's message json representation.
-</p>
-<p><b>Configuration Directives</b>:</p>
-<p>This module has no configuration directives.</p>
-<b>Caveats/Known Bugs:</b>
-<p>This module can't be used together with imklog module. When using one of them, make sure the other
-one is not enabled.</p>
-<p>This is Linux specific module and requires /dev/kmsg device with structured kernel logs.</p>
-<p><b>Sample:</b></p>
-<p>The following sample pulls messages from the /dev/kmsg log device. All
-parameters are left by default, which is usually a good idea. Please
-note that loading the plugin is sufficient to activate it. No directive
-is needed to start pulling messages.<br>
